Military Relocation in Colorado Springs, Colorado

Military relocation for Colorado is undergoing some big changes in the summer of 2005 according to the local newspapers. Currently, none of the major military installations are targeted for closure, and in fact, Colorado may gain 356 civilian jobs. Intentions are to relocate an additional brigade combat team to Fort Carson in Colorado Springs.  There also may be additions to Peterson, Schriever, and Buckley air force bases.

These additional jobs are in addition to the move announced previously of more than 3,700 troops from South Korea  to Fort Carson.  The local papers reported on May 14, 2005, that Colorado's overall net increase of 4,917 defense-related jobs would put it behind only three other states. The overall shuffling of personnel is part of the so-called "BRAC" process, aimed at reducing federal expenditures.  Base closures or additions of personnel  can have dramatic effects on their local economies.

US Rep. Joel Hefley, R-Colorado Springs, is quoted as saying:

"I felt much better about this than I have in any of the other base closure rounds.  But when you get down to it, you can't outguess them. They can fool you so you kind of sweat it out a little bit.  Now I couldn't be more happy."

Fort Carson may gain 4,178 military and 199 civilian workers when a brigade combat team and a unit of employment headquarters is transferred from Fort Hood, TX. The sum total of all personnel gains, expected to total over $8,000, is expected to have a very positive impact on the local economy and housing market of Colorado Springs.
