 The AFCEC Real Estate Development team closed an Enhanced Use Lease agreement at Grand Forks Air Force Base in February 2015. The unmanned aerial system (UAS) business park is a model public-public-private partnership. The deal leased 216 acres of non-excess, underutilized base property to Grand Forks County to develop a business park, Grand Sky, for UAS testing, training and research. During a ceremony on 15 Oct 2015, Northrop Grumman, the first tenants of Grand Sky Business Park, Grand Forks County, and Air Force leaders broke ground at the site. The planned complex is the first to begin construction and represents a $10 million investment. Grand Sky illustrates the power of government and commercial collaboration, leveraging existing assets to provide third-party funding to the installation.
