Explanation

(This amendment provides $950,000 the second year from the general fund for the City of Newport News to acquire 30 acres of property needed for a new access gate at Fort Eustis. The federal budget includes $15 million in MILCON for the construction. The $950,000 will be match by the City on a 1:1 ratio. Acquiring parcels in 2019 will allow time for required environmental assessment and project design ahead of the 2023 Military Construction project allocation.)
