A new aircraft hangar is coming to Sugar Land Regional Airport.
What you need to know
At a Feb. 17 meeting, Sugar Land City Council unanimously approved the agreement with Meneses Enterprises LLC to allow the company to design a new hangar at the Sugar Land airport, while establishing lease terms for future construction and expansion.
The hangar will be built on Parcel 1, an undeveloped property adjacent to Menses’ current hangar, at the General Aviation Complex, and will allow the company to expand its fleet or sublease to other tenants, according to agenda documents.
Zooming out
The Houston-based company has been with the airport since 2024, housing a Phenom 300 business jet in its current hangar, per agenda documents. The company also bought a Gulfstream G550—a business jet larger than the Phenom—in December, which is currently kept in the airport’s community hangars.
Together, the two jets have brought in over $79,000 in fuel sales to the airports.
What else?
The agreement includes an initial lease term of 30 years at $0.64 per square foot, with consumer price index adjustments and two 10-year conditional extension options, per agenda documents.
