Next they'll want to close Langley AFB and Ft. Eustis. Close down all military installations and turn it into one huge subdivision.

The mechanism for getting there in the first place was complicated. Developers, blindered politicians, and homebuyers who cared more about what zip code they were in than about their own safety contributed to this mess, and it cannot be wiped away with a simple resolution without somebody losing a huge chunk of money.
How about this? Declare the areas "Danger Zones" (a little Top Gun music, please), and require residents to sign two pieces of paper. First, an indemnity sign-off releasing the Feds from any responsibility for damage to property or persons as a result of military activity in the area. Second, authorization of stringent background checks to protect our aircraft and our pilots from homeowners who might have motivation to use certain toys on property in the danger zone, such as lasers, RPG's and other propelled munitions, and anything else that would pose a threat to U.S. Navy aircraft and personnel.
I think many of the residents will clear out voluntarily, and even take a loss on their property to get out of there.
