Overview and Objectives The United States Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), under its Enhanced-Use Leasing (EUL) authority (38 U.S.C. § § 8161- 8169 and as amended), is seeking expressions of interest from qualified SDVOSBs and VOSBs to serve as a Developer for purposes of creating supportive housing for the homeless and/or at-risk of homeless Veterans or their families. For purposes of this effort, the Developer would be a non-VA entity who has the qualifications outlined in Section V of this Notice. The Developer will be expected to develop permanent supportive housing for homeless and at-risk Veterans at the Former VA Monterey Community Based Outpatient Clinic. The opportunity would involve a Developer entering into a EUL with VA and financing, renovating/constructing, operating, and maintaining permanent supportive housing units and on-site community-based support services for homeless and at-risk Veterans and their families. VA conducted a Public Hearing on the EUL concept on February 11, 2019 at the Major General Gourley VA- DoD Outpatient Clinic Gourley Conference Room in Marina, CA. VA s EUL authority allows VA to outlease land and improvements to selected developers (i.e., Lessees) to provide supportive housing and on-site community-based support services for Veterans and their families. Such leases can have a term of up to 75 years. VA s Office of Asset Enterprise Management (OAEM) administers the EUL Program. The objectives of this development opportunity include but are not limited to: Repurpose vacant and underutilized building at the Former VA Monterey Community Based Outpatient Clinic for purposes of permanent supportive housing; and, Develop a housing model geared towards enabling Veterans to achieve self-sufficiency and live independently. Additional information on the VA s EUL program may be obtained at: http://www.va.gov/assetmanagement/. Development Scope The intent of this Notice is to determine if there are experienced SDVOSB or VOSB developers that can develop scenarios and implement the agreed upon scenario to transform VA s Former VA Monterey Community Based Outpatient Clinic asset into permanent supportive housing and provide supportive services for homeless and at-risk Veterans in accordance with VA s EUL authority. The Developer would undertake all necessary investigation activities to produce development with underutilized vacant building and land at the Former VA Monterey Community Based Outpatient Clinic to provide permanent supportive housing to meet homeless and at-risk Veterans needs. The asset to be developed by the Developer would be to renovate and reutilize an existing vacant 35,200 square foot building on approximately five acres of land to provide supportive housing for Veterans on a priority basis. Please see Attachment A for a building location map and preliminary proposed EUL parcels outline. Please note the parcel outline shown in Attachment A is subject to change.
