The Marine Corps is facilitating a Community Integrated Master Plan (CIMP) to evaluate community-military development partnering options. There are unmet facility needs and security requirements at Marine Barracks Washington and a potential to meet common community and military needs through the process. Recognizing that the Marine Barracks and the community are linked in past and present, our goal is to use a coordinated planning process to create a win-win in meeting the development needs of the local community and Marine Corps. Community and stakeholder involvement is essential to the success of the Community Integrated Master Plan efforts and your participation is encouraged.
 
Thank you to all who attended and participated in the public forum sessions in November and December as well as the Community Leadership Group meetings on the CIMP process to date. The facilitated discussions and comments received will further help the CIMP team as the process goes forward. Meeting summaries and forum materials are available at the link below as well as the “CIMP FORUM” tab on the top and Community Leadership Group meetings can be found under “Additional Information” on the left sidebar.
 
Currently, no site for a new Bachelor Enlisted Quarters (BEQ) has been determined, nor has a decision been made for shared-use facilities in the community. Most recently, a financial feasibility analysis has been completed and has provided several real estate (Private-Partner Venture, lease, etc.) and funding options for a new BEQ and shared-use facilities. These real estate and funding options are in the process of being briefed through the Marine Corps leadership chain-of-command.
 
Once a decision has been made by the Marine Corps, the CIMP team will hold a Community Leadership Group meeting to discuss the next steps going forward in this process.
 
We appreciate your patience and continued participation in this process.
