Most military installations were originally located in remote areas, distant from urban areas due largely to the availability of land and for defense and security purposes. Over time however, installations drew people and businesses closer and closer to take advantage of civilian job opportunities offered by the installation and to provide the goods and services to support the installation’s operations. As urban growth and development increased near and around military installations land use conflicts between base operations and civilian development increased.
Is Smart Planning an Option? Through joint, cooperative military and community planning, growth conflicts can be anticipated, identified, and prevented. These actions help protect the installation’s military mission, and the public health, safety, quality of life and community economic stability.
The Department of Defense (DoD) supports several programs designed to provide technical information on noise and aircraft accident potential that communities can use to regulate urban encroachment while promoting economic growth and development. Read more here: JLUS Smart Planning - doc
