Grayson County airport tower qualifies for federal program
SHERMAN, Texas — North Texas Regional Airport has been accepted as a candidate to change the way its control tower is managed. Currently, Grayson County spends about $300,000 a year to staff the tower, but it’s been trying for the last six years to shift that operation to the Federal Aviation Administration’s Contract Tower Program, which provides services for more than 250 small airports in 46 states.
