These EUL and/or HRP projects are to be for a long-term outlease or exchange. Enhanced Use Lease Authority :, Title 38 United States Code Sections 8161-8169, allows the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to outlease facilities (available land, buildings, and other resources) to provide supportive housing that engages tenants in on-site and community-based support services for Veterans or their families who are at risk of homelessness or are homeless. Enhanced-Use Leases are long-term leases (up to 75 years) of facilities under VA s jurisdiction of control to the public or private sector for veteran supportive housing. This program is administrated by VA s Office of Asset Enterprise Management (OAEM). VA Historic Reuse Program (HRP): The National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), specifically Title 54 of the United States Code Section 306121-306122, authorizes Federal agencies to outlease or exchange unneeded historic properties and retain the proceeds to fund preservation activities. As VA seeks to actively engage the private sector in strengthening utilization of its real property portfolio, the Department has created a nationwide Historic Reuse Program (HRP) to implement historic outlease and exchanges of underutilized real estate. The HRP is administered by VA s Land Acquisition & Strategic Utilization (LASU) team within the Office of Construction and Facility Management (OCFM). The objective of this development opportunity includes but is not limited to: To provide an innovative solution within current authority to preserve a VA-owned, historic property; To enable a productive use of these properties that do not involve VA capital dollars and benefits all stakeholders; and To meet VA s obligations under Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) to better preserve and protect the property. To maximize achievement of these objectives VA may execute its authority to lease the Subject Property for cash or historic preservation services, or exchange the Subject Property for other comparable historic real property, or any combination thereof.
