Ideas From Monday Night Meeting

Environmental issues should help to drive the reuse plan

Base should be able to be a key location to manage storm water for the township

Possible alternate energy generation

Solar FarmTake a look at the base for alternate Energy Generation. The exposure on the base is wonderful for solar generation.
Can the base and the area become a point for energy development?
Some kind of a laboratory area for alternate energy development

Manufacturing

Encourage some kind of manufacturing in the township, sustainable, long term friendly to the community and the general reigon

Improvements to road infrastructure

Relocation of existing business to the base property in order to improve the road system should be free of charge
