The Sacramento City Council has approved a plan to annex nearly 500 acres of vacant land near the Sacramento airport, advancing the proposal with a 5–2 vote while two councilmembers recused themselves over conflicts of interest. Supporters say the Sacramento annexation plan could boost the local economy and support a potential logistics center with access to the airport and interstate. Construction workers and labor groups emphasized job creation, while environmental advocates warned of potential impacts and argued the city is overlooking prior contractual obligations. The airport-area annexation now heads to the county for review.
