The Naval Air Station Fort Worth, Joint Reserve Base (NAS Fort Worth, JRB) Regional Coordination Committee (RCC) and Joint Land Use Study
(JLUS) implementation efforts are an initiative of the cities of Benbrook, Fort Worth, Lake Worth, River Oaks, Sansom Park, Westworth Village, and
White Settlement
in conjunction with Tarrant County. These efforts were initiated out of a realization that urban development may have a long-term
impact on the
installation's ability to sustain its military training mission.
Recognizing the land use constraints and development pressure surrounding the installation, a Joint Land Use Study was initiated in 2006 by
the
base, the communities, and the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) to identify actions needed to enable the continued
coexistence of the installation and the communities. Several recommended initiatives were developed as an outcome of the JLUS process,
including
a recommendation
to form a NAS Fort Worth, JRB Regional Coordination Committee. The purpose of the Committee is to develop,
implement,
and monitor policies, programs, and projects which improve opportunities to expand operations at
NAS Fort Worth, JRB in the next
Base Realignment
and Closure (BRAC) process.
