AI Contract Overview

The United States Army Garrison at Fort Knox, Kentucky, is offering approximately 116 acres of underutilized land for an Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) project. Located near Louisville and Elizabethtown across Hardin, Meade, and Bullitt counties, these sites are situated in a census tract that may qualify for New Market Tax Credit financing due to its designation as a high migration rural county. This designation could enhance the appeal of the project to potential financiers. Fort Knox is experiencing a significant net increase in personnel—almost 4,800 military, civilian, and contractor staff—by 2011, driven by the Base Realignment and Closure Act of 2005. This shift brings an estimated $100 million annual increase in civilian payroll, suggesting a growing demand for commercial development including office space, retail, and conference facilities. The three undeveloped parcels, which have adjacent access and nearby utilities, are being offered to private sector developers through a competitive process. Selected bidders will be responsible for developing, operating, and maintaining the facilities while providing in-kind consideration to the Army that is at least equal to the fair market value of the leased land. An Industry Forum was scheduled to facilitate engagement and provide additional details, including registration and draft documents related to the Notice of Opportunity to Lease. The solicitation is managed by the Department of Defense through the W2SD Endist Baltimore office, with key contact provided for interested parties to obtain further information.

Full Description

United States Army Garrison at Fort Knox, Kentucky Approximately 116 (+/-) acres of underutilized land at the United States Army Garrison at Fort Knox, Kentucky are being made available for an Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) project. Fort Knox is located approximately 38 miles south of Louisville and 15 miles north of Elizabethtown, in Hardin, Meade, and Bullitt counties. Each of the proposed sites is in a census tract qualified as possibly being eligible for New Market Tax Credit project financing. The census tract qualifies by being in a high migration rural county, which may make the project more attractive to NMTC financiers. As a result of the Base Realignment and Closure Act of 2005, Fort Knox will see a net increase of approximately 4,799 military, civilian, and contractor personnel by 2011. Incoming personnel are more highly paid than the outgoing personnel; approximately $100 million more annually in civilian payrolls will be coming to Fort Knox. The three sites are undeveloped, though access is adjacent to each site, and utilities exist nearby each site. Likely development includes office, retail, and conference center uses. The Army seeks to competitively select a developer to lease these parcels of land to develop the aforementioned uses. The successful private sector bidder(s) will develop, operate, and maintain the facilities and provide in-kind consideration to the Garrison at least equal to the fair market value of the leased assets. An Industry Forum will be held on Wednesday, April 29, 2009, registration information, as well as the Draft Notice of Opportunity to Lease (NOL) and other project information can be found at http://eul.army.mil/FtKnox/.
