Excerpt from Military Construction Appropriations for Fiscal Year 1997: Hearings Before a Subcommittee of the Committee on Appropriations, United States Senate, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session Closure Community Assistance Act. We expect to open bases to economic reinvest ment in half the time taken in previous brac rounds. Rarely does the prospect of a closing base instill a sense of opportunity. However, communities do convert military bases to public and private uses successfully. Just last year, the Army com leted an economic development conveyance to the City of Sacramento for most of t e Sacramento Army Depot to spur economic development and create jobs. Packard Bell, the nation's third largest manufacturer of personal computers, has already created more jobs than the depot employed there. Although economic development conveyances are not possible everywhere, they are one exam ple of how we can have a win-win situation for all involved. Although closures take several years, leases are possible in the interim. In this way, the community does not have to wait for us to complete everything necessary to close a base before reuse. For example, the Massachusetts Government Land Bank leased an intermodal rail facility at Fort Devens. The Army has also leased a golf course at Fort Sheridan, Illinois.
