designated for closure pursuant to the Defense Base Closure and

installation were on May 20, 1994, declared surplus to the federal

government and available for use by (a) non-federal public agencies

pursuant to various statutes which authorize conveyance of property for

public projects, and (b) homeless provider groups pursuant to the

Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 11411), as

Election To Proceed Under New Statutory Procedures

Subsequently, the Base Closure Community Redevelopment and Homeless

Assistance Act of 1994 (Public Law 103-421) was signed into law.

Section 2 of this statute gives the redevelopment authority at base

closure sites the option of proceeding under new procedures with regard

formulated and how requests are made for future use of the property by

homeless assistance providers and non-federal public agencies. On

December 23, 1994, the Alameda Reuse and Redevelopment Authority

submitted a timely request to proceed under the new procedures.

Accordingly, this notice of information regarding the redevelopment

authority fulfills the Federal Register publication requirement of
