The City of Long Beach has released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for 31 acres of land for development for aeronautical purposes at Long Beach Airport (LGB). The availability of such a large amount of land is a unique opportunity, the likes of which has not occurred at the airport since the developments of the Long Beach Airport Business Park and Kilroy Airport Center in the 1980s and early 1990s. “Long Beach Airport has been an important hub of economic activity for the city since its inception almost a hundred years ago,” said Mayor Robert Garcia. “We are looking forward to positive proposals to create more jobs
that strengthen the local economy." The site is situated near approximately 90-acres of land owned by The Boeing Company, which was formerly used for the manufacturing of the Boeing C-17 Globemaster III military aircraft. It is anticipated that the development of the site will attract and enhance the redevelopment of the Boeing property in the future. “The availability of such a large area of airport adjacent property presents a huge opportunity for additional aeronautical development at LGB,” said Juan Lopez-Rios, Long Beach Airport Deputy Director. “We anticipate interest from both existing tenants and outside parties that
will encourage the revitalization of the west side of the airport.” The five parcels that the site is comprised of range in size from 128,000 to 487,000 square feet. Potential developers may submit proposals for any or all of the parcels. The RFP specifies that development of the site should be intended for aviation related purposes that are complimentary and respectful of the adjacent existing businesses. Proposal submissions are due by 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, November 1, 2017. To obtain a copy of the RFP Number AP17-128, please visit https://www.planetbids.com/portal/portal.cfm?CompanyID=15810#.
