  1. LWI Leonard Wood Institute Partnering between Fort Leonard Wood and Local and State Entities October 2005

  2. Partnering Opportunities • BRAC 95 • Technology Park • Missouri’s Fort Leonard Wood Region • Missouri Technology Corporation • Leonard Wood Institute • Missouri Military Preparedness Commission • BRAC 05

  3. Fort Leonard Wood 1995 • 22,000 people, 63,000 acres • Home of the Army’s Engineer School • Marine, Navy and Air Force training detachments • Over 25,000 people trained annually • Base operations budget - $65 million/year • Over $500 million/year contribution to state’s grossproduct

  4. BRAC 95 • Chemical and Military Police Schools from Fort McClellan • $230 million in new construction • 4,000 new personnel Thurmond Hall Chemical Defense Training Facility (CDTF)

  5. Fort Leonard Wood Today • 30,000 people, 61,000 acres • Home of the Army’s Maneuver Support Center • Chemical, Engineer and Military Police Schools • Marine, Navy and Air Force training detachments • Over 40,000 people trained annually • Major science and technology mission • Base operations budget - $120 million/year • Over $700 million in new, on-going or pending major construction since 1999 • Housing privatization – over 2,200 units • Over $1.2 billion/year contribution to state’s grossproduct

  6. State and Regional Challenges • Getting leaders and other stakeholders to work together • State role • Develop a goal

  7. The Objective • To effectively and efficiently develop roughly 1800 units of quality housing in the private sector within 2 years.

  8. Impediments to Quality Development Rural, small town environment – Pulaski County and five small towns Lack of public support for zoning and building codes (issue defeated in 1997) Infrastructure issues – need to encourage development in areas with basic public facilities and services.

  9. The Community Response • Stand up a Local Organization (11 member board): The Fort Leonard Wood Regional Commerce and Growth Association: • Cities and County • Business Leadership • School Board • Utilities • Fort Leonard Wood (ex-officio) • State of Missouri (ex-officio)

  10. Funding Sources • Office of Economic Adjustment - critical to the success of the project • State of Missouri – cash match and administrative support in grant management

  11. Communication was Key • Regular monthly Board meetings including information packets and “Leadership Group” meetings as needed • Finding support in the formal and “informal” power structures • Meeting the press head on

  12. Growth Management Plan • Use of a set procurement process to attract a quality design firm (made possible by OEA) • A plan for the entire County – planning charrettes in each city and county • Priority Development Areas • Incentives for compliance

  13. Goal of the GMP • Create a workable plan to accommodate anticipated growth and preserve the quality of life, economic health, natural beauty and resources of Pulaski County • Encourage growth in and around existing cities and public resources

  14. GMP: Growth Areas • Area #1: Infill Development Opportunities (approval required - incentives available) • Area #2: Immediate Growth Areas (approval required - incentives available) • Area #3: Future Growth Areas • Area #4: Rural Conservation Areas Source: Growth Management Plan, 1997

  15. New Development • Worked to involve the builders • RCGA Board approval of area and plan – Area 1 or 2 and compliance with CABO 95 • State of Missouri Provided incentives for infrastructure Development • Capture Goal was 65% - Pulaski County got 85%

  16. How Region Helped Installation • Major Army concern – sufficient, quality off-post housing • Army couldn’t fix • Helped addressing other issues • Schools • Transportation • One primary interface to all communities and regional government entities

  17. How Installation Helped Region • Active ex-officio membership • Provided on-post office space • Shared the numbers • Communities need to know how many are coming and their demographics • Everyone needs to know numbers will change • Publish best estimates at least quarterly • Shared regional vision • What’s good for one is good for all • Was willing to advocate at State level

  18. Partnering Opportunities • BRAC 95 • Technology Park • Missouri’s Fort Leonard Wood Region • Missouri Technology Corporation • Leonard Wood Institute • Missouri Military Preparedness Commission • BRAC 05
