When: July 28, 2009. A walk-through of the building will commence at 9:00 am (EDT) with the Industry Forum commencing at 10:00 am and adjourning at 1:00 pm (EDT). Where: The Industry Forum will be held in the Auditorium on the Canandaigua, VA Medical Center campus. Upon entering the Canandaigua campus, turn right and the Auditorium is located on the left-hand side of the circle drive across from the parking lot. Prior to the commencement of the Industry Forum, interested parties are invited to meet at the Auditorium on the VA Medical Campus for a guided walk-through of the subject building (Building 14). The Canandaigua VA Medical Center, located at 400 Fort Hill Avenue in Canandaigua, New York, is within 50 miles of Rochester, NY and 100 miles of Buffalo and Syracuse, NY. The Medical Center is situated on 163 acres that straddle the line of the Town of Canandaigua and the City of Canandaigua. Most of the VAMC is located in the Town. Both of these jurisdictions are within Ontario County in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York. Overview: The United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) through its Enhanced Use Lease authority (i.e., 38 U.S.C. Sections 8161-8169), plans to lease approximately 1.9 acres of land and improvements at its 163-acre Canandaigua VA Medical Center campus to a private or public sector entity for a term of up to 75 years. The selected developer will be given an opportunity to lease and develop the site in a manner that maximizes its value and benefit to VA, the developer, local veterans, and the Canandaigua, New York community. VAs primary objective in leasing the property is for a selected developer to establish and, thereby, increase the number of transitional housing units with on-site supportive services available to eligible Veterans who are homeless or at imminent risk of being homeless; returning Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) OEF/OIF eligible Veterans; eligible women Veterans, including those with dependent minors; frail, elderly, and/or physically challenged eligible Veterans; and, eligible Veterans in transition to and from treatment at the Canandaigua VA Medical Center. In exchange for entering into the Enhanced-Use Lease, VA will require that the selected developer/lessee provide VA with negotiated, fair consideration as determined by VA. The Industry Forum will be held on July 28 from 10:00-1:00 p.m. EDT at the Canandaigua VA Medical Center. It will be open to all interested developers and industry affiliates who pre-register via the website located at the following address: http://www.va.gov/ASSETMANAGEMENT/EnhancedUse/Canandaigua/index.asp. Registration provides an opportunity to provide VA with preliminary contact information and allows you to provide initial commentary. The Forum will entail a presentation of the proposed leasing and development opportunity, an open discussion, and will be followed by a reception among forum attendees. Following the Industry Forum, VA plans to solicit competitive offers from private and public sector entities through the issuance of a VA Request for Proposals (RFP). The RFP will provide more detailed information about the proposed transaction, including a scheduled date and time for interested persons to tour the EUL Site. Developers proposals likely will be due in the Fall of 2009 (i.e., by a specific date and time to be contained in the RFP), and VAs selection of the selected developer is expected to occur early 2010. All interested developers or industry affiliates should pre-register via the website, located at: http://www.va.gov/ASSETMANAGEMENT/EnhancedUse/Canandaigua/index.asp Questions will be directed through the website. In addition, further details regarding the Industry Forum and RFP will be directly provided to those interested developers and industry affiliates that pre-register via the website. We look forward to seeing you there.
