Forum to Look at Air Force Housing Privatization Effort

An industry forum for a planned military housing privatization project at Langley Air Force Base will be held at the Omni Hotel in Newport News, VA, on Sept. 17.

The forum will provide interested parties with information on the project.

The Air Force is seeking qualified entities to own, renovate, operate and maintain 1,182 family housing units at the Air Force base for at least 50 years.

The Air Force’s primary goal in this effort is to provide military families with safe, quality, affordable and well-maintained housing.
