The implementation project is comprised of eight tasks described in the scope of work and shall be completed by September 30, 2021 in coordination with the project stakeholders and the selected consultant. These initiatives will serve to protect public health, safety, and welfare; promote an orderly transition between community and military land uses to achieve and maintain compatibility, preserve and expand the operational capabilities of YARS; promote an awareness of the size and scope of military activities to protect areas outside YARS used for, or impacted by, military operations (e.g., critical airspace); and inform the local community of compatibility recommendations for specific geographies within the Military Compatibility Area. The YARS JLUS completed last year was a community-driven, cooperative, strategic planning process through a collaborative partnership with YARS, Fowler Township, Vienna Township and Trumbull County, to promote community development that is compatible with the military training, testing, and operational missions and seek ways to reduce operational impacts on adjacent lands. The goal of completing and implementing a JLUS is to encourage local municipalities and townships, under the leadership of Trumbull County, to work closely with YARS and implement measures that prevent the introduction of incompatible civilian development that may impair the continued operational utility of YARS, and to preserve and protect the public health, safety, and welfare of those living near YARS. The JLUS planning process served to increase public awareness of YARS and its contribution to the regional economy. The JLUS planning process was intended to protect and preserve military readiness and defense capabilities while supporting continued community economic development. The Consultant will be responsible for completing the eight tasks defined in detail within the Scope of Work including tasks and deliverables under Administration and Management, Development of a Geographical Information System Tool 3-Dimensional Imaginary Surfaces Model for the entire Military Compatibility Area (MCA), Education, Comprehensive Planning for the MCA, Zoning Recommendations and Updates for the MCA, Various Studies, and Legislative Development.
