Agenda Item No F3 . CITY OF SAN BERQRDINO - REQUEST O>>R COUNCIL ACTION STAFF REPORT A letter has been recei ved from Richard J. Bennecke, Assistant Base Closure Officer, dated 6-28-91, inquiring if the City might entertain the idea of vacating Mill Street, from the west boundary of the Ballistic Missile Office (BMO), at some time in the future. This inquiry is based upon the possibility for future expansion of this facility, in the event that the LA Air Station is closed and some of the functions are relocated to the BMO. It is assumed by Mr. Bennecke that the relocated functions would be housed on the north side of Mill Street, which would necessitate a pedestrian bridge to provide unrestricted access to the existing complex. This arrangement is considered less than ideal, from an operational standpoint. Other options are available, since there is vacant land to the west and south of the BMO, which could accommodate an expansion to house the relocated functions. However, this option would entail incurring the cost to acquire the additional property, and may not be acceptable to the Air Force. This section of Mill Street is tion Element of the new General Plan. undoubtedly based upon the assumption as a major access to Norton A.F.B. not shown on the Circula- However, this omission was that it would still serve It will be impossible to make a comprehensive analysis of the effects that would result from vacating this section of Mill Street until such time as the Base Re-Use Plan and Development Plan are finalized. There are many options that could be con- sidered when these plans have been adopted by the IDVA. Therefore, we recommend that the City go on record as willing to consider the vacation of Mill Street in the future upon receipt of an official request from the BMO. 7-10-91 75.0264 I " '.; \t f,\ 'I , ~ =- t?V()RUi..- s()I/rll Afi!'1~,eIA-~) ~ ~ \ :'t 11\ - - - - - - - - - - - - 1Jq I I , i" lI\QI):.

DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FDE HEADQUARTER.. .3D COM.AT .U~N)trr GROUP aNACI NORTON AIR 'OIlCE eASE. CALlPOltNIA 82401t.SOOO 28 June 1991 Honorable W.R. "SO})" Holcom):) Mayor, city of San Bernardino 300 North "0" street San Bernardino, Calif. 92418 :, Dear Mayor Holcom):): I am writing this letter in response to an inquiry we received from the APRCE/BMS, the Ballistic Missle Office at Norton APB. As you are aware, the Air 'Force is currently in the process of drafting a Reuse E.I.S. This study is aiming to })e a comprehensive document in terms of identifying the over-all potential reuses that could occur at Norton after the military departs. ' In this regard, the BMO is contemplating how their area might look after })ase closure. Since Mill street currently })i-sects the future BMO contonment area, BMO would like to know if the city of San Bernardino might entertain the idea in the future of closing Mill Street })etween BMO's two areas. The reason for this possi})le future Mill Street closure plan would })e to enhance the over-all remaining area. This would allow the possi})ility for future expansion of this operation should a decision })e made to close the LA Air station and parcel out part or all of that operation to current operating facilities. If Mill Street were. to remain open, a pedestrian })ridge - would have to })e })uilt so employees could access the otherside. From an operational standpoint, this would create a less than desira})le work situation. ;. , ! I 1 I I I 1 l I I would like to request that this matter })e discussed and reviewed })y the appropriate city agencies responsi1)le for planning and traffic circulation. A. .written response as to your conclusions in this matter would})e greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking this matter under consideration and for your timely response to this request. .-, .~ 1 :~ 1 Sincerely 'i~ Assistant Base Closure Officer cc: Glen Hamner APRCE/BMS Capt D.
