BROWNSVILLE – Residents say they’re not ready to move out ahead of plans to expand the Brownsville/South Padre Island International Airport.

The airport director, Bryant Walker, says they’re waiting for approval from the Federal Aviation Administration to buy out homeowners.

KRGV’s Daisy Martinez explains why the 82-year-old worries she won’t get a return investment on the work she’s put into her home over the past three decades.
