community’s interests, e.g., reflected in

its zoning for the area, play a significant

role in determining the range of

alternatives considered in the

environmental analysis for property

disposal. Furthermore, Section

91.7(d)(3) of the DOD Rule provides that

the Local Redevelopment Authority’s

plan generally will be used as the basis

for the proposed disposal action.

The Federal Property and

Administrative Services Act of 1949, 40

U.S.C. § 484, as implemented by the

FPMR, identifies several mechanisms

for disposing of surplus base closure

property; by public benefit conveyance

(FPMR Sec. 101–47.303–2); by

negotiated sale (FPMR Sec. 101–47.304–

8); and by competitive sale (FPMR Sec.

101–47.304–7). Additionally, in section

2905(b)(4), the DBCRA established

economic development conveyances as

a means of disposing of surplus base

closure property. The selection of any

particular method of conveyance merely

implements the Federal agency’s

decision to dispose of the property.

Decisions concerning whether to

undertake a public benefit conveyance

or an economic development

conveyance, or to sell property by

negotiation or by competitive bid are

committed by law to agency discretion.

Selecting a method of disposal

implicates a broad range of factors and

rests solely within the Secretary of the

Navy’s discretion.

Conclusion

The Consensus Reuse Plan proposed

by the Village of Glenview presents the

highest and best use of the NAS

Glenview property. The Village of

Glenview, as the LRA, has determined

in its Consensus Reuse Plan that the

property should be used for several

purposes, including commercial, light

industrial, retail, residential,

recreational, public service, and open

space uses. The property’s physical

characteristics and the current uses of

adjacent lands make it appropriate for

this mixed use redevelopment.

The Consensus Reuse Plan responds

to local economic conditions, promotes

rapid economic recovery from the

impact of the Naval Air Station’s

closure, and is consistent with President

Clinton’s Five-Part Plan for revitalizing

base closure communities, which

emphasizes local economic

redevelopment of the closing military

facility and creation of new jobs as the

means to revitalize these communities.

32 CFR Parts 90 and 91, 59 Fed. Reg.

16,123 (1994). The resultant

environmental impacts can be mitigated

by the acquiring entity under the

direction of Federal, State and local

regulatory authorities.

Although the ‘‘No Action’’ alternative

has less potential for causing adverse

environmental impacts, this alternative

would not constitute the highest and

best use of the Naval Air Station

property. It would not take advantage of

the property’s physical characteristics

and the current uses of adjacent

property. It is not compatible with the

LRA’s Consensus Reuse Plan. It would

not foster local economic

redevelopment of the Air Station and

would not create new jobs.

Accordingly, Navy will dispose of

Naval Air Station Glenview in a manner

that is consistent with the Village of

Glenview’s Consensus Reuse Plan for

the property.
