Authorize Local Redevelopment Authority Staff to Communicate Positions and Open Dialog Regarding Department of Veterans Affairs Interest in Onizuka Air Force Station Property
Staff Recommendation: Alternative No. 1: Council authorizes LRA staff to communicate positions and open dialog regarding the VA interest in Onizuka AFS. The position is to express serious reservation about the VA proposal because it would effectively reduce the reuse site size by 27%, thereby limiting the number and type of uses that might be interested in the site and reducing the economic value of the site; to offer staff assistance to the VA to find an alternate suitable site and building in Sunnyvale; and to recommend that the entire 19 acre Onizuka AFS site be declared surplus and that the VA’s interest and need for locating on a portion of the site be considered in the community reuse planning process.
