3. Master Plan Concepts No land use changes proposed for Inner Fort Preservation of views and green space in new Waterfront Park Adaptive reuse of buildings in the Historic Village 7-mile educational and exercise trail Improved vehicular patterns & pedestrian circulation

4. Fort Monroe is a long-term project; the Master Plan has to be flexible Large users like STEAM Academy bring name recognition and reduce expenses Economic realities suggest demand for office and commercial space is weak Market conditions & physical location indicate Fort Monroe future should focus primarily towards residential use Focus on phasing and implementation within the community (existing structures are highest priority) Army transfer delays will continue to affect implementation of the Master Plan Economic Realities of the Master Plan Tell Us…

5. Recap: The Financial Challenge None of the Master Plan options resulted in a financially sustainable future Fort Monroe’s potential “structural deficit”: 2027 Option A: Reuse and Infill - $4.5 Option B: Wherry Park - $4.8 Option C: Waterfront Community - $3.3

6. Concepts to Explore to Bridge the Financial Gap 1.Exit the utility business 2.Find additional sources of revenue a.Tax independent financing b.Homeowner association dues c.Transfer PILOT fee to property owners d.Parking revenue program e.Service district charge 3.Focus on residential development but maintain flexible real estate strategy 4.Cost recovery from NPS 5.Hold Wherry Quarter to avoid market saturation & increase value

7. Findings and Observations Focus on a long-term infrastructure CIP and/or operations financing plan Rebalance mix of uses to focus on residential Preserve revenue-generating uses and redevelop when opportunity arises to increase net revenue Decisions need to be made as part of Master Plan process to enable FMA to plan its staffing needs and implement a robust real estate program Explore a “skinny FMA” by maximizing sales with minimum inventory retained as rental
