IV. HISTORY AND FACTS BRIEF:
A) The Wagenaar Army Reserve Center located adjacent the Port of Pasco (at the
intersection of Oregon and Ainsworth) has been declared surplus by the
Department of Defense. The Department's Office of Economic Adjustment
(OEA) is responsible to coordinate with local entities to determine the most
appropriate party for transfer of the property. That process requires a "Local
Redevelopment Authority" (LRA) to conduct a planning process and make a
formal recommendation to the OEA as to appropriate disposal of the property.
B) The city, in early 2006, recommended the Port of Pasco be designated as the
LRA, as the Port owns property nearby the Reserve Center and .is an established
local public entity that could carry out the planning process. Unfortunately, the
Port has recently withdrawn from the process due to the perception on the part of
some that the Port has a conflict of interest if the Port both conducts the planning
process and makes a proposal for acquisition of the property. Consequently, the
OEA has requested the city to assume the LRA responsibility or identify another
local entity to do so. By letter from the Mayor, the city requested additional time
to collect more information about the obligations associated with carrying out the
process; apparently, the OEA has declined to grant additional time for the city to
consider the request.
V. DISCUSSION:
A) Staff requested that representatives of OEA attend the February 25 workshop
meeting to provide both an overview of the process and answer questions Council
may have about the obligations associated with the request. OEA representatives
have indicated the city must make its decision soon (within a week or so).

Honorable Joyce Olson

Dear Mayor Olson:
Pursuant to the 2005 Defense Base Closure and Realignment process,property at
PFC Daniel L. Wagenaar U.S. Army Reserve Center was determined to be surplus to the needs of
the Federal Government and available for civilian reuse. The Base Closure Community
Redevelopment and Homeless Assistance Act of 1994 establishes a transition process for surplus
real property that is available for reuse. The process begins with the Department's recognition of a
Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA) and ends with the Military Department transferring the
property to other governmental entities or to private ownership.
In the case of this specific installation, the Office of Economic Adjustment (OEA) previously
contacted the City of Pasco and provided information regarding the redevelopment planning process.
At the request of the City of Pasco, OEA recognized the Port of Pasco as the LRA on May 17, 2006.
However, on January 15, 2008, the Port of Pasco withdrew as the LRA. An LRA is important to
obtaining civilian reuse of this installation.
Please indicate by return correspondence whether a local entity, with appropriate jurisdiction
over this property, requests recognition as the LRA for this installation. Negative replies are also
requested. In the event that this office is not in receipt of a response within 30 days from the date of
this letter, the Department will assume a negative response.
In the absence of an LRA at the local level,the Department will write to Governor Gregoire
to seek State interest to either serve as the LRA or to identify an appropriate entity for recognition.
OEA staff will contact you directly to answer any questions concerning this matter. For
further information please contact Ms. Amanda Fagan, Project Manager. She can be reached at
(916) 557-7365 or email at amanda.fagannwso.whs.mil.

RE: Wagenaar Reserve Center, Pasco
Dear Mr. O'Brien:
The City of Pasco is in receipt of your January 31 letter inquiring of the city's interest to serve as
the Local Redevelopment Authority (LRA) regarding the Army Reserve Center in Pasco
determined previously by the Army to be surplus to the needs of the Federal Government.
While we have some knowledge of the Port of Pasco's LRA effort over the past 18 months
regarding the Pasco facility, we are not fully familiar with the obligations associated with
accepting LRA status. We will need some additional time to attain a satisfactory level of
knowledge about the subject and associated processes hefore making a determination about LRA
designation. To that end, please regard this letter as a request to provide an additional 45 days
(through April 15) for the city to advise you in writing as to its preference.
Please feel free to contact Pasco City Manager, Gary Crutchfield (5019-545-3404) regarding this
matter prior to Council determination about LRA status, as he has been in contact with Mr. Tony
Gallegos and Ms. Amanda Fagan of your organization.
Sincerely,
Joyce Olson
