Opening Remarks<br />
Why Privatize?<br />
• To provide quality, modern, affordable homes in a<br />
military community where our service members and<br />
their families would choose to live<br />
• To better steward Government resources in the<br />
maintenance and management <strong>of</strong> homes for our service<br />
members and their families<br />
• To accomplish housing and community improvements<br />
in a shorter timeframe than traditional military funding<br />
processes<br />
