Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American communities face serious challenges when military bases close. But affected municipalities and metro regions are not doomed. Taking a long-term, flexible, and incremental approach, Michael Touchton and Amanda J. Ashley make strong recommendations for collaborative models of governance that can improve defense conversion dramatically and ensure benefits, even for low-resource municipalities. Communities can't control their economic situation or geographic location, but, as Salvaging Community shows, communities can control how they govern conversion processes geared toward redevelopment and reinvention. In Salvaging Community, Touchton and Ashley undertake a comprehensive evaluation of how such communities redevelop former bases following the Department of Defense's Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) process. To do so, they developed the first national database on military redevelopment and combine quantitative national analyses with three, in-depth case studies in California. Salvaging Community thus fills the void in knowledge surrounding redevelopment of bases and the disparate outcomes that affect communities after BRAC. The data presented in Salvaging Community points toward effective strategies for collaborative governance that address the present-day needs of municipal officials, economic development agencies, and non-profit organizations working in post-BRAC communities. Defense conversion is not just about jobs or economic rebound, Touchton and Ashley argue. Emphasizing inclusion and sustainability in redevelopment promotes rejuvenated communities and creates places where people want to live. As localities and regions deal with the legacy of the post-Cold War base closings and anticipate new closures in the future, Salvaging Community presents a timely and constructive approach to both economic and community development at the close of the military-industrial era.

Book excerpt: Since 1988 the United States federal government has been closing military installations in the United States through the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) process. Some communities are able to quickly redevelop their former bases into thriving new neighborhoods within their borders while others are unsuccessful. This thesis is a case study of why redevelopment of the former Naval Air Station, Alameda (Alameda Point) has failed for over 10 years. After a historical overview of Alameda Point, I generally describe the base closure process before exploring themes from several case studies of both successful and unsuccessful base redevelopment. The successful base reuse projects had community support, employed creative and adaptive financial strategies, and were seen as public benefits by the communities. Along with lack of leadership, unsuccessful base reuse efforts had elements of divisiveness within the community or among the involved stakeholders. I then used the above themes to analyze the Alameda Point case. There is now arguably little community support for the most current Alameda Point redevelopment plans. The City's policy of fiscal neutrality complicates the employment of creative and adaptive financial strategies. Finally, public benefits are not apparent in the current planning for Alameda Point. Lack of City leadership and competing interests amongst stakeholders has led to divisiveness in Alameda furthering stalled redevelopment. Alameda Point has additional issues making redevelopment stagnate including environmental cleanup uncertainty, property conveyance procedures, land use economics and property restrictions. I concluded this thesis with recommendations for public-private partnerships and for further research to include a case study comparing Hunter's Point, Treasure Island, and Alameda Point. Finally, I offer a learned approach to base reuse that requires City leaders and developers to create a financially feasible reuse plan with community supported public benefits. Once approved, this plan must be expeditiously built out to ensure market survivability and delivery of public benefits for a community that puts a very high value on public land.

Book excerpt: This report is an examination of the policies developed to bring about accelerated cleanup of military bases now closing in California and the relevance of those policies to other Department of Defense cleanup programs and hazardous waste policy in general. This annotated, case-study-oriented briefing discusses the applicable legislation and the various priority-setting systems that might be imposed--those based on risk, jobs, reuse, speed, or land. Four questions are addressed: what goals govern cleanup on California's closing bases, and to what extent are they reuse-driven? Is risk-driven priority a by-product of existing cleanup legislation? How do reuse- and risk-driven priorities differ, and can DoD's goal of harmonizing these two priorities with legislative requirements be achieved? What is project management's role? Site-specific base studies are described, and recommendations delineated for both active and closing bases.

Download or read book Military Base Closures: Opportunities Exist to Improve Environmental Cleanup Cost Reporting & to Expedite Transfer of Unneeded Property written by and published by DIANE Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While expected environmental cleanup costs for unneeded property arising from the 2005 BRAC round are not yet fully known, Department of Defense (DOD) data indicate that about $950 million will be needed to clean up these bases, adding to the estimated $13.2 billion total cleanup cost for the prior rounds. Although DOD's cleanup program has matured compared to prior BRAC rounds, there are still many unknowns and the cleanup estimate for the 2005 round should be considered preliminary. In fact, environmental cleanup costs are likely to increase as more intensive environmental investigations are undertaken, additional hazardous conditions are discovered, and future reuse plans are finalized. Furthermore, Congress does not have full visibility over the total cost of DOD's BRAC cleanup efforts because none of the four reports DOD prepares on various aspects of environmental cleanup present all types of costs past and future to complete cleanup at each base. Compiling a complete picture of all costs requires extracting information from multiple reports, as GAO has done to estimate the total cleanup cost for the four prior BRAC rounds. More complete and transparent cost information would assist Congress in conducting its oversight responsibilities for this multibillion dollar effort.

Over this period of time, experience has shown that the primary responses to a closure must be community-based. This describes the roles of community leaders, State leaders, Federal officials, and other resources. The role of community leaders-where economic adjustment efforts begin and end-is described in terms of the three components of economic adjustment: the community, local businesses, and workers. The roles of State and Federal officials are briefly summarized. A detailed listing of the various resources available to your community can be found in the Appendix. The economic and social fabric of a community is tested when a closure action is announced. What does this decision mean? How will jobs be impacted? Is there any way to avoid the closure? The closure and reuse process is disruptive, but the experience of most communities is that the net result is economically beneficial in the long run.The base reuse process consists of a series of activities involving both the Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA) and the Military Department. These activities are required by both laws and regulations. An LRA must be aware of this general process to effectively respond to the closure and to move the community toward economic recovery. The overall reuse and disposal process ("reuse process") consists of three phases: base-wide reuse planning; disposal and reuse decision making; and decision implementation. This Section provides a brief overview of the reuse process, including information on transitional impacts to the community as the base is converted from military to civilian use.
