The AZARNG should develop or commission an economic impact study that details

facilities and include economic impacts of foreign military dollars, contractors, and
the procurement of local goods and services.

COM‐3: There is an opportunity for improved direct communication between
AZARNG and Arizona State Land Department.
Location:
Project Area
Most of the land surrounding the four AZARNG sites in Pinal County, as well as some
of the land that makes up Florence Military Reservation, is managed by the Arizona
State Land Department through the Arizona State Trust. The Department’s mission is
to manage Arizona State Trust land to maximize fiscal benefits for the Trust’s
beneficiaries, the primary trustee being Arizona public schools. State Trust Lands
could be sold or leased and developed in the future, and there is no formal process in
place to specifically notify the AZARNG of potential land disposition activities or
development proposals.
