Relating to funding for certain commercial service airport projects.

HB 2429 modifies Texas law to expand eligibility for state funding for commercial airports. It allows airports in counties along the Texas-Mexico border with populations under 300,000, or airports jointly managed with another state agency serving a border county, to qualify for financial assistance and inclusion in the aviation facilities capital improvement program. The bill requires that funding aligns with federal restrictions but removes previous barriers for these specific border airports. This directly affects airport authorities in eligible border counties seeking state support for infrastructure projects.
