Court to rule on airport area tree height dispute
The 4th Court of Civil Appeals was set to decide if trees near the international airport should be reduced in height after a lower court ordered the Bourlands to trim by January. The city seeks a temporary injunction claiming the trees threaten aviation safety and violate FAA rules. The city previously bought part of the Bourlands land near the airport in 1961 for $92,500.
