Description

Section 2801 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996, Public Law 104-106, 110 Stat 186 (U.S.C. 2871-2885), provides a series of powerful authorities that allow the Department of Defense (DOD) to work with private sector to build and renovate housing. The Department of the Navy (DON) intends to utilize the unique powers and authorities provided under the legislation to ensure that safe, good quality, energy efficient, well-managed, affordable housing will be available to families of military personnel assigned to Marine Air Group 49, Detachment B and Marine recruiters in the Stewart area, as needed, over the long term. Accordingly, the DON intends to become a partner in a public-private partnership, or similar business entity, established by a private company or team of private investors/developers, property managers/operators, building contractors, architects and engineers, and/or others for housing at the Stewart Terrace Housing Area which is located just west of Newburgh, New York in New Windsor. The DON intends to contribute up to 300 existing units of DON-owned and DON-occupied family housing, including related improvements. The DON envisions the private partner (managing member) securing debt and/or contributing equity, as needed, over the long term to carry out the project and, acting on behalf of the partnership: 1) owning, operating, managing and maintaining 171 units of existing inventory of DON-owned family housing, including site infrastructure, for a minimum term of 50 years; 2) designing, financing and renovating and/or replacing the 171 privatized units; and 3) marketing and selling and/or renting the remaining 129 units of the existing inventory in a manner that maximizes the extent of renovations to the 171 privatized units and the replacement of the greatest number of those privatized units. All of the 171 privatized units will be made available to military families on a preferential basis at prescribed rents for the term of the agreement. This acquisition will be conducted by the Commanding Officer, Atlantic Division, Naval Facilities Engineering Command, Norfolk VA.
