Seymour Johnson AFB & Dare County Range • Joint Land Use Study
JLUS Recommended Strategies
The heart of the Seymour Johnson AFB
and Dare County Range JLUS is a set of
102 recommended strategies that address
compatibility issues for the two JLUS
Study Areas. Since the JLUS is the result
of a collaborative planning process, the
strategies represent a true consensus plan
—a realistic and coordinated approach
to compatibility planning developed with
the support of stakeholders involved
throughout the process. The strategies
developed are uniquely tailored for
this JLUS and respect the local context,
including the value of personal property
rights recognized throughout the region.
The key to the implementation of the
strategies is the establishment of a JLUS
Implementation Coordination Committee
to oversee the JLUS execution. Through
this Committee, local jurisdictions,
Seymour Johnson AFB and the Dare
County Range, federal and state
agencies, and other stakeholders can
continue their initial work together
to establish procedures, recommend
or refine specific actions, and make
adjustments to strategies over time to
ensure the JLUS continues to resolve
key compatibility issues into the future.
Concurrent with the efforts of the JLUS
Coordination Committee, each project
partner is responsible for establishing
their own course of action to implement
the strategies unique to them through
collaboration of their leadership, planners,
and the public. Since the Implementation
Plan is intended to be a living document,
each partner jurisdiction has the flexibility
to revise and refine the Plan for their
unique circumstances and use for tracking
implementation actions and progress.
The strategies developed during the
JLUS process are described in detail in
Chapter 6 of the JLUS Report.
