Yuma MCAS (JLUS)
Abstract
To address public safety and flight safety concerns resulting from the close proximity of the Fairgrounds to the MCAS Yuma runways, the City of Yuma will partner with Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Yuma County, Yuma County Airport Authority, and the Yuma County Fair, Inc. to complete a feasibility study and project assessment for the relocation of the Yuma County Fairgrounds. The feasibility study and project assessment will provide the community and military with critical information required for decision-making regarding the future of the fairgrounds and MCAS-Yuma operations. The study objectives include: identify suitable alternative fairground sites, short- and long-term cost projections for relocation, land acquisition, construction and maintenance, and utility access; develop information on constraints and options for repurposing the existing fairgrounds; and the identification of environmental conditions and impacts, surrounding densities and zoning, noise levels and proximity to projected growth for the alternative sites.
