Authorize to Outlease VA is authorized to outlease land and improvements to non-Federal entities through the EUL Program or HRP. Such leases can have a term of up to ninety-nine (99) years. VA s Office of Asset Enterprise Management (OAEM) administers the EUL Program. The EUL authority allows VA to partner with the public or private sector to maximize returns to Veterans from underutilized capital assets. It allows selected developers to finance, build, operate and maintain supportive housing or provide services to Veterans directly and indirectly. VA envisions that development of the EUL Site(s) will entail well-planned and coordinated endeavor, which are compatible with the campuses ongoing mission-related activities and the surrounding non-VA community. The HRP authority allows VA to manage, outlease, or exchange historic facilities (available land, buildings, and other resources) in a manner consistent with VA s obligation to maintain historic assets. An HRP agreement can be either a long-term outlease (up to 99 years) of facilities under VA s jurisdiction of control to the public or private sector or an exchange of historic properties. This program is administrated by the Office of Real Property (ORP) within VA s Office of Construction and Facilities Management (OCFM). Offeror(s) under both VA authorities will, in part, be authorized and responsible for financing, designing, developing, occupying, operating, and maintaining the development Sites in accordance with detailed development plan approved by VA ( Development Plans ) and applicable Federal, state, and local laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations. RFQ Terms and Condition Acceptance VA reserves the right, at any time, without notice, at its sole and absolute discretion, to: (a) reject any or all responses; (b) extend any deadline set forth in this RFQ; and (c) terminate the RFQ process, in whole or in part. 2 PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT OF SITE 2.1 Overview of Solicitation Structure Through this RFQ, VA is presenting Sites available for redevelopment for an Offeror; Offerors may submit a single response to this RFQ to develop the Site referenced in Attachment A. See Sections 4 and 5 of this RFQ for required response content and evaluation criteria. Location, Background and Description of the Site The intent of this Solicitation is to outline the requirements for selection of a Developer(s) and its team(s) for purposes of redeveloping underutilized vacant buildings to provide ancillary services (e.g., funeral home (mortuary services), event management organization and office space) that benefit Veterans (directly or indirectly) and/or create permanent supportive housing for homeless and/or at-risk of homeless Veterans and their families. It is expected that any redevelopment would also enhance the Dayton VA Medical Center campus. The Developer entering into a EUL or HRP agreement with VA will be responsible for all financing, renovating/constructing, operating, and maintaining facility(s) and on-site community-based support services for Veterans and their families. Pursuant to 38 U.S.C. §8163, VA conducted a Public Hearing on the EUL concept on September 26, 2022, at 6:00 PM EST; virtually with the Microsoft Teams video conference application. Attachment A contains additional information regarding the location, background information, and description of the subject Sites. Attachment B includes directions on how to participate in the upcoming in-person tours of the Sites. Development Considerations In deciding whether to submit a response to develop the one or more of the proposed Sites, the Offeror should consider certain factors. National Historic Preservation Act Prior to entering into a EUL or HRP agreement with VA, the Offeror shall work with VA to fulfill the requirements of the National Historic Preservation Act, 54 U.S.C. §§ 300101, et seq. ( NHPA ) in conjunction with the development and finalization of the proposed Development Plans. Section 106 of NHPA, 54 U.S.C. §§ 306108, requires the consideration of the effects of the Project on historic properties listed or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and provides representatives of the state and local governments, tribes and other interested consulting parties sufficient opportunity to comment on the Development Plan prior to execution of the EUL or HRP agreement. Section 106 of the NHPA also requires the seeking of ways to avoid, minimize, or mitigate adverse effects (e.g., demolition) that the Development Plan might have on any historic properties during the execution stage of the EUL or HRP agreement. Consummation of this effort will be accomplished by VA. VA will act in concert with the Offeror, when necessary, in the accomplishment of historical compliance. For guidelines related to historic preservation requirements, visit https://www.achp.gov/protecting-historic-properties. National Environmental Policy Act and Other Environmental Considerations The EUL or HRP Project will be subject to all applicable Federal, State, and local environmental laws, codes, ordinances, and regulations, including but not limited to, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act ( CERCLA ), 42 U.S.C. §§ 9601-9675; the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act ( RCRA ), 42 U.S.C. §§ 6901, et seq; and the National Environmental Policy Act ( NEPA ), 42 U.S.C. §§ 4321-4347.  NEPA requires that Federal agencies, including VA, identify and evaluate the potential environmental impacts of a major Federal action (e.g., an EUL) on the human environment.  VA will complete the NEPA analysis upon VA s selection of the Offeror.  The Offeror will be required to provide development-specific information to support the analysis.  The NEPA analysis must be completed by VA, prior to execution of the EUL or HRP agreement.  The Offeror will be responsible for complying with mitigation requirements of the NEPA analysis, if required. Offer shall comply with all applicable environmental laws and will be responsible for any required cleanup/remediation activities.  Additionally, the Offeror will be responsible for any necessary environmental studies, reports, sites assessments, seismic, etc. that are needed by Offeror to meet Offeror s obligations.  Lastly, the Offeror will be responsible for complying with any regulatory requirements for the abatement and removal of any asbestos and/or lead-containing material. Infrastructure Any available information about infrastructure regarding the Sites is included in Attachment A. It is the responsibility of the Offeror to pay utility providers for all utilities through separate metering. It is the responsibility of the Offeror to bring in the necessary utility lines (water, sewer, gas, fiber optics, communication, cable, etc.) to operate the EUL or HRP Site(s). VA is not obligated to provide selected Offeror access to VA owned utilities or resources. Legal Considerations Overview The Offeror is responsible for conducting its own due diligence regarding the EUL or HRP Site(s) including, without limitation, whether (a) the development of the EUL or HRP Site(s), as contemplated by the Response, can be accomplished in compliance with applicable Federal, State, and local requirements (including fire, life safety, accessibility, zoning, State and local building codes, and other local land use restrictions); (b) the condition of the EUL or HRP Site(s) is suitable for the Offeror s contemplated use; (c) the necessary permits, variances, special exceptions and other governmental actions or approvals required for the contemplated developments can be reasonably obtained (at no cost or expense to VA); and (d) the contemplated use(s) is otherwise practical and economically feasible. Property is under concurrent jurisdiction. Prior to the execution of the lease agreement, Offeror will need to have written executed agreements (e.g., Memorandum of Understanding regarding fire, police, and emergency services) in place and includes VA concurrence. Taxes In accordance with the pertinent provisions of the EUL Statute (i.e., 38 U.S.C. § 8167), the Offeror during the EUL term will be subject to any and all applicable State and local taxes, fees, assessments, and special assessments legally chargeable to the EUL, the Offeror s leasehold interest, and the Offeror s underlying improvements. However, neither VA s interest in the EUL nor the United States fee interest in the underlying properties shall be subject, directly or indirectly, to any State or local laws relative to taxation, fees, assessments or special assessments. Security Offeror is responsible for providing security on the Site. The Offeror shall include in their response an overview of the physical security and electronic monitoring that will be provided based upon the individual space requirements and tenant mix of the proposed EUL or HRP Project. As part of the response, it should be noted, that it is the requirement of the Offeror to have security 24/7. Energy Conservation and Sustainable Design Requirements The VA Sustainable Design Manual () is the guidance that defines the methodology to incorporate sustainable design, including energy efficiency, in the EUL or HRP project. VA encourages Offerors to incorporate sustainability over and above the standards found in the current VA Sustainable Design Manual. In previous projects, some developers have proposed more aggressive energy efficiency and sustainability milestones that made their proposals, all other elements considered equal, more attractive.  To take advantage of existing sustainability work in the private sector that is well accepted in the construction industry, VA has determined that using a third-party rating system is the best method for fulfilling VA sustainable building requirements in the EUL or HRP project. The Offeror may propose using the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) rating system, the Green Globes® rating system, or an alternate rating system. VA requires that the project achieve at least LEED Silver, Two Green Globes, or an equivalent certification level by the alternate rating organization. Offerors proposing to use an alternate rating system must submit a memo to the VA Project Manager demonstrating that the alternate solution achieves an equivalent level of certification as LEED Silver, Two Green Globes, or both. Prevailing Wages Unless the Offeror can demonstrate to the satisfaction of VA in the form of a written determination or written correspondence from the U.S. Department of Labor that the Offeror or the Project are exempt therefrom, Offeror shall comply with the requirements of the Davis-Bacon Act, as amended, 40 U.S.C. § 3141, et seq. and the relevant rules, regulations, and orders of the Secretary of Labor applicable thereto. Handicap Accessibility The Offeror will be required to ensure that its design, development, construction, operation, and maintenance plan and activities on the Site(s) comply in all respects with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101, et seq., and the Architectural Barriers Act of 1968, 42 U.S.C. §§ 4151, et seq., as amended. EUL Statutory Requirements VA s EUL and statutory requirements are codified at 38 U.S.C. §§ 8161-8169 and as amended. Public Law No. 117-168, The Sergeant First Class Heath Robinson Honoring our Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics Act of 2022 (PACT Act). Sec. 705 of the PACT Act, Modifications to Enhanced-Use Lease Authority of Department of Veterans Affairs . HRP Statutory Requirements VA s HRP is authorized by the NHPA, specifically Title 54 of the United States Code Section 306121-306122.This authority allows Federal agencies such as VA to outlease or exchange unneeded historic properties and retain proceeds to fund agency preservation activities. Site(s), VA s Goals and Objectives VA has the following goals and objectives for the Projects: Reuse underutilized VA properties. This could take the form of safe, affordable, smoke-free housing for Veterans and their families who should have priority placement in any housing project created on the Site(s). This could also take the form of ancillary or commercial services that benefit Veterans directly or indirectly. (b) Provide supportive housing and on-site supportive/resident services (if HUD-VASH is used, the service provider must provide service above and beyond HUD-VASH requirement). It is the intent that VA will provide case management services to eligible Veterans. (c) Develop a housing model geared towards enabling Veterans to achieve self-sufficiency and live independently. Avoid ongoing operating costs associated with the upkeep of vacant and/or underutilized assets. To provide an innovative solution within current authority to preserve a VA-owned, historic property.

To meet VA s obligations under Section 110 of the NHPA to better preserve and protect the property. The Dayton VA Medical Center will not accept ancillary/commercial services that are industrial. 2.3.10 Other Considerations VA will not participate in or allow its or the United States underlying fee interest in the land to be used as security for financing for the Project or otherwise, including without limitation, providing any kind of guaranty or act in any way as a beneficiary for a financing vehicle. In regard to any proposed Project-related financing to be obtained by the Offeror, VA as a general rule will not approve any financing that includes requirements that operate to deny, restrict, or subordinate VA s right to terminate the EUL upon the Offeror s failure to cure an outstanding event of default thereunder. This includes any document, to include the EUL that would prevent VA from terminating the EUL due to cross default arising from one or more parcels on the Property. Any proposed Project financing that does not comply with this restriction must be explicitly identified in the RFQ response for VA s unilateral review and evaluation. The successful Offeror must establish and maintain positive relations and communications with State and local governmental authorities and the local communities during negotiations with VA and any of its representatives.
