Fort Hood Joint Land Use Study (JLUS) Budget Amendment
ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT
Finance
BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The Joint Land Use Study (JLUS) is a tool funded and used by the Department of Defense (DOD) to evaluate the synergy between civilian communities and adjacent military installations located in the United States. Key considerations are the compatibility of civilian land use and development activities and encroachment concerns that may negatively impact air and ground operations, training, testing, and power projection missions conducted on military installations.
Selected civilian communities serve as JLUS sponsors. Sponsors coordinate with DOD’s Office of Economic Adjustment (OEA) to secure approval of a JLUS application and federal grant funding.
On October 20, 2015, City Council authorized the City Manager to sign a professional services contract with Benchmark CMR, Inc. for the JLUS in the amount of $255,860.
DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION
OEA received the JLUS application on August 21, 2015, and subsequently approved it. OEA approved the proposed budget in the amount of $292,236 as shown below.
