[and re-establish a partnership with the community]

Strong Partnership exists today - it does not need to be "re-established"... The Navy has fostered strong partnerships for years as evidenced by their semi-annual community forum.  They have implemented many measures from flight ops publication to analyzing every noise complaint.  They have shared their utilities, volunteer thousands of annual hours, renovated schools, rescued hundreds of citizens (SAR), created 300 acre salmon marsh...    Now, what has the small, anti-navy groups done relative to "community partnership" (outside of advocating base closure)?
