City aims for success with Army ammo plant land

RIVERBANK, California -- The U.S. Army turned over 28 undeveloped, environmentally-safe acres of Riverbank Army Ammunition Plant property to the city at an Oct. 17 ceremony.

The RAAP closed in 2010 under the 2005 Base Realignment and Closure Act.

Paul Cramer, Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Army for Installations, presided over the event and joined Congressman Jeff Denham in speaking at the ceremony.

"Today is a great opportunity to celebrate a new start for the city of Riverbank and for the former Army depot here in Riverbank," Cramer said. "Since its closing in 2010 the Army has enjoyed a great partnership with the city of Riverbank in preparing for future productive use of the property."
