the University of Colorado Hospital Authority are in urgent
need of space to maintain their ability to deliver health care

(3) Reuse of the Fitzsimons Army Medical Center at the
earliest opportunity would provide significant benefit to the
cities of Aurora, Colorado, and Denver, Colorado.

and agencies of the Federal Government of buildings and prop-
erty at military installations approved for closure under the

Fitzsimons Army Medical Center, Colorado, should be com-
pleted as soon as practicable;

transfer of appropriate facilities (including facilities that remain
operational) at such installations to the redevelopment authori-
ties for such installations in order to ensure continuity of use
of such facilities after the closure of such installations, in
particular, the Secretary should consider the expedited transfer
of the Fitzsimons Army Medical Center because of the signifi-
cant preparation underway by the redevelopment authority
concerned;
(3) the Secretary should not enter into leases with redevel-
opment authorities for facilities at such installations until the
Secretary determines that such leases fall within the categorical
exclusions established by the Secretary pursuant to the
