7. Who’s Coming to Town? Two significant BRAC gains for Eglin Air Force Base – U.S. Army’s 7 th Special Forces Group, from Fort Bragg, NC Total anticipated growth to the area: 6,000 ± – F-35 Joint Strike Fighter Initial Joint Training Site 3 U.S. Services (AF/USMC/USN); multiple international partners (possible) Total anticipated growth to the area: 4,000 ± $800 million MILCON associated with these gains – New 7 SFG Cantonment on Eglin Reservation + training ranges – New academic campus/additional hangar/ramp space for JSF on Eglin main; additional construction on outlying fields

8. Regional Response Two significant study efforts undertaken – Joint Land Use Study (JLUS) – Government-centric – Growth Management Plan (GMP) – Community-centric Okaloosa County led both efforts; regional growth focus – Two separate structures JLUS – Policy Committee (Executive) and Technical Advisory Group (Staff) GMP – Eglin Installation Growth Committee w/ Executive Committee (Executive) and 10 separate functionally aligned subcommittees (Staff) Participating jurisdictions passed resolutions to support structure/leadership – County hired local project coordinator to oversee both efforts – OEA Technical/Resource assistance

9. Results/Recommendations Joint Land Use Study – Arranged by jurisdiction, provided specific recommendations for each issue/incompatibility identified – Bundled similar recommendations to facilitate implementation Additional studies/analyses Technical assistance Locally enacted recommendations Growth Management Plan – Defined specific growth areas to better focus on large study area Milton area (SR Co) Crestview, Fort Walton Beach, Niceville/Valparaiso, Destin areas (Ok Co) Mossy Head area (Walton Co)

10. Implementation Growth Plan identified the need to streamline – JLUS and GMP structures alone involved over 200 local participants; many served both processes Too many ‘moving parts’ resulted in lack of involvement, lack of focus, ineffective overall activity – Created Northwest Florida Military Sustainability Partnership Based on JLUS planning construct with Executive Committee (EXCOM) and Military Growth Advisory Group (MGAG) – EXCOM chaired by Okaloosa County commissioner, other jurisdictions ‘join’ by formal Interlocal Agreement; each participating community gets one primary/one alternate member – EXCOM meetings open and subject to Florida Sunshine laws – MGAG participants include community staffers, installation representatives, State representatives, local citizens, interest groups – Currently consists of 10 jurisdictions plus Eglin Air Force Base

11. Implementation (con’t) JLUS identified the need to better understand long-term land use impacts in military overflight areas – Largely rural areas north and east of Eglin reservation underlie Low Level Flight Corridors/Training Routes, Cruise Missile Corridors, and Northwest Florida Greenway Corridor These areas constitute prime future growth corridors for all three counties Overpopulation/excessive growth/density could limit corridor utility Delicate balance between military mission/compatibility and property rights – State of Florida places compatibility burden on the community not the military – Local jurisdictions don’t want any ‘takings’ claims; largely communication issue w/property owners and elected officials – Small Area Study commissioned April ‘11; results due March ‘12
