USAF Academy/Peterson AFB/Schriever AFB/Fort Carson MIS Implementation Ph 2

Abstract

The Pikes Peak Area Council of Governments (PPACG) completed a Colorado Springs Regional Joint Land Use Study (JLUS)(now called a Compatible Use Study) in December 2018, resulting in a list of recommended implementation strategies and actions including identified lead and supporting jurisdictions/agencies/organizations. This grant-funded planning effort focuses on carrying out the high priority recommended strategies and actions from the Colorado Springs Regional Joint Land Use Study Report (now called a Compatible Use Study) focused on installations resiliency. The funds provided in this grant allow PPACG and local stakeholders to continue collaborative partnerships with Air Force Academy, Fort Carson, and the Peterson-Schriever Garrison (Peterson Air Force Base, Cheyenne Mountain Air Force Station, and Schriever Air Force Base) to ensure land uses are compatible with military operations and natural and man-made threats are mitigated to support military missions. These efforts will help to ensure the readiness, sustainability, and resiliency of the military installations. The key deliverables from this planning effort include the following: 1) Air Force Academy Stormwater Implementation Report, 2) Documentation and Plans for Design of US 24/Peterson Blvd Interchange Improvements, 3) Schriever Energy Resilience Study, 4) Wildfire Mitigation Coordination Report, and 5) JLUS (now called CUS) Implementation Report on actions integrated into local planning documents.
