Compatibility Assessment Overview
Chapter 5 provides an assessment of the compatibility factors and issues applicable to
the Arizona Army National Guard (AZARNG) sites within Pinal County and discusses key
findings relative to the assessment of the compatibility issues identified. These findings
will be used in the JLUS Implementation Plan to develop recommendations and strategies
to mitigate or lessen the compatibility issues and their impacts on the AZARNG missions
and growth and development in the nearby communities.
Compatibility Factors Overview
In relation to military readiness, compatibility can be defined as the balance or compromise
between community needs and interests and military needs and interests. The goal of
compatibility planning is to promote a collaborative environment in which both community
and military entities communicate, coordinate, and implement mutually supportive actions
that. Such actions, in turn, would allow both parties to achieve their respective objectives.
This collaborative approach will provide guidance for the resulting policies and actions
recommended in the JLUS Implementation Plan.
Several factors determine whether community and military plans, programs, and activities
are compatible or in conflict. Twenty‐five compatibility factors were used to identify,
assess, and establish a set of compatibility issues in the Pinal County JLUS Project Area. The
identification and assessment of compatibility issues associated with the various factors
guided the development of recommendations in the Implementation Plan. The
25 compatibility factors are shown on the following page.
