A contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars is up for debate at Houston’s City Hall.
At Tuesday’s city council meeting, some community members like Bell expressed support for Miami-based company “Areas JV” to take over the food and beverage contract at Hobby Airport.
The Pappas family has operated their brands out of Hobby Airport for more than a decade. Community partners showed up to support them in keeping their contract. But, it could come down to numbers. Councilmember Dave Martin said the way bids are currently structured, if Pappas was awarded the contract, it would be a $25 million dollar loss for the city’s enterprise fund over 10 years. The fund goes back to the airport.“Our current contract to what’s in the bid, they are not made the same way,” she said. “It’s not apples to apples.”
