The Crows Landing Air Facility is the former auxiliary landing field to Moffett Naval Air Field. It represents a significant opportunity for job creation and industrial/commercial development on the west side of Stanislaus. Located less than one mile from Interstate 5 with a regional connection with the Tracy Triangle (17 miles north) and the urban Bay Area (75 miles west), the Crows Landing Air Facility has major economic development potential. The Air Facility occupies a total area of approximately 1,524 acres with improvements that include two runways (approximately 5,600 and 8,000 feet long), a mix of buildings that have been used for a variety of activities. Approximately 1,354 acres was conveyed to the County in October 2004. Approximately 1,112 acres of property will continue to be farmed under a three-year agricultural lease approved by the Board of Supervisors in October 2005. The remaining area will be evaluated and/or remediated by the Navy for soil and groundwater contamination but will be transferred to the County once remediation efforts meet State and Federal requirements for transfer. Staff continues to proceed with planning for the reuse of the Air Facility property. |
