MRRA’s goal is to engage the private sector in the redevelopment effort through lease and sale of buildings and land Consistent with Reuse Master Plans, Zoning ordinances and Design

Guidelines Major property acquisitions at Brunswick Landing and Topsham

Commerce Park: Partnership with local real estate developers George Schott, Jim Howard,

Tom Wright, Hilary Rockett MRRA has sold 245 acres of land to AMH (over 50 housing units sold to

date –McKeen Street) Three major building acquisitions closed

we hit $7 million, which we have a year earlier than forecast MRRA is aggressively marketing property to international, national,

state-wide and local real estate developers and target sector businesses

MRRA has open listing policy and pays brokerage fees MRRA retained CBRE Richard Ellis and REMAX to market key

properties MRRA has unique ability to be creative in real estate and project

Challenges Affecting Rapid Reuse

Property conveyances are costly and complex real estate transactions

Many buildings that are conveyed suffer from lack of proper maintenance (major systems fail)

Most buildings do not meet current State & local codes (ADA, Life Safety, etc.)

Aging utility systems require significant upgrades

MRRA has responsibility to maintaining: Airport runways & tarmac 27 miles of roads 17 miles of electric infrastructure 15 miles of water, sewer and storm drains

Some key properties are still awaiting environmental clearances

These are unique properties that requires some planning and code flexibility

Business friendliness at State and community level is critical to success

Conclusion

24

Redevelopment of former military installations is a long, tedious expensive and complex process. It is a marathon not a sprint!

While still are very early in the process, the Redevelopment of NAS Brunswick is proceeding ahead of schedule.

The NASB reuse effort is far outpacing other 2005 BRAC facilities around the country.

The annual lease absorption rates at Brunswick Landing are outpacing the region by a factor of 3x.

Conclusion Continued

25

The ability of NAS Brunswick to effectively and rapidly achieve its reuse goals is dependent on several key factors: The condition of the national

and state economies; The availability of the financial

resources needed to re-purpose the properties and improve and maintain the infrastructure; and

The level of federal, state, community and public support for the redevelopment effort!
