(1) Benefit the public health, safety, morals, and welfare.
(2) Increase the economic well-being of the unit and the state.
(3) Serve to protect and increase property values in the unit and the state.
(c) The planning, replanning, rehabilitation, development, redevelopment, and other preparation for reuse of military bases and military base property under this chapter are public uses and purposes for which public money may be spent and private property may be acquired.
(d) Each unit shall, to the extent feasible under this chapter and consistent with the needs of the unit as a whole, provide a maximum opportunity for reuse of federal military bases by private enterprise or state and local government.
(e) This section shall be liberally construed to carry out the purposes of this section.
