In 1993 the Victor Valley Redevelopment Project was established for the purpose of providing economic development as the result of closing the former George Air Force Base. The Project Area was a joint project of the Cities of Adelanto, Hesperia, Victorville, the Town of Apple Valley, and the County of San Bernardino. The Project Area is under the direction of the Victor Valley Economic Development Authority (VVEDA) and is administered by the City of Victorville. The County receives a portion of the tax increment generated within the unincorporated area of the project. The goal of this project is to promote industrial and other development utilizing the airport facilities. The total unincorporated portion of the Project Area is approximately 10,500 acres.
