The Concord City Council on Tuesday accepted a term sheet for the development of the former Naval Weapons Station from Brookfield Properties -- a plan the developer would do in five phases spread over 40 years, with extensive community benefits and union involvement that critics said were lacking from the previous two master developers.

The 2,300-acre site will feature 12,200 homes, 6 million square feet of commercial space and 880 acres of green space. The adjacent 2,600 acres to the east has been gifted to the East Bay Regional Park District for the new Thurgood Marshall Regional Park - Home of the Port Chicago 50.

The developer's plan calls for 25% of the housing to be designated affordable for the area, a significant amount in the pricey East Bay.
