Despite some last-minute disagreements, Orange County Supervisors voted at a board meeting on Sept. 15 to finalize 35-year leases with two companies for small-plane service at the California county’s John Wayne Airport.

The board voted 4–1 for Clay Lacy Aviation to replace Atlantic Aviation on the northwest side of the airport and 5–0 for ACI Jet to remain on the northeast side, both as full-service fixed-based operators (FBO).
