Concord Community Reuse Project

Council votes to reject Term Sheet

At a continued special meeting this morning (January 28, 2023), the Concord City Council, sitting as the Local Reuse Authority, rejected the Concord First Partners, LLC (CFP) Term Sheet to develop the former Concord Naval Weapons Station and directed staff to let the Exclusive Negotiating Agreement with CFP expire on Jan. 31, 2023.

After Council questions of CFP and staff, the action was taken on a 3-2 vote (Hoffmeister, Nakamura and Obringer – for; Aliano and Birsan – against).

Mayor Laura Hoffmeister asked staff to determine the next steps for the Base Reuse project, and staff will return to Council with recommendations in the coming weeks.

At its meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 26, the Concord City Council/Local Reuse Authority will consider the Concord First Partners, LLC exclusive negotiating agreement (ENA) for the base reuse project at the former Concord Naval Weapons Station.

The staff report and agenda packet for this item are now available on the Concord Reuse Project website.

At a special meeting on Aug. 21, 2021, the Council, sitting as the Local Reuse Authority, directed staff to negotiate an ENA with Concord First Partners, LLC. The ENA provides the terms and timeframes under which the parties will pursue the implementation of the Community Reuse Project.
