About this file
This file is Appendix L of Request for Lease Proposals (RFLP) No. AFCEC-26-R-0001, containing a pre-offer inquiry log of questions and answers between potential offerors and the U.S. Air Force Civil Engineer Center Installations Directorate (AFCEC/CI) regarding Strategic Real Estate Opportunities (SREO) at Joint Base San Antonio (JBSA).
The inquiry log documents 17 questions submitted between January 16 and January 21, 2026, primarily focused on Opportunity 6: METC Dormitories Replacement, along with questions regarding other opportunities and RFLP requirements. Key clarifications include: (1) the Air Force has not completed design work on METC Dormitory #1 and has no environmental assessments in progress; (2) construction funding must come from private sources, as neither Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) revenues nor lease-purchase structures are permitted under 10 USC 2667; (3) all development must comply with San Antonio and Bexar County building codes and applicable federal, state, and local laws; (4) survey requirements apply only to selected Potential Lessees (offerors entering negotiations), not all offerors; (5) the Department cannot provide annual lease payments exceeding $500,000 as referenced in 10 U.S.C. § 2667(b)(7); and (6) Appendix A was not attached to the RFLP and would compile depictions from Appendices B-G. The Government indicated "Unknown" responses to several questions regarding BAH availability, watershed impact studies, MWR Gateway Club contributions, and facilities utilized by 149 FW and 433 AW. No amendments were issued in response to these inquiries.
