The non-profit group received approval from its board to begin negotiations with the company at a meeting June 23.

The decision by the board to approve negotiations with RMC ends two years of discussion and debate by the group.

The company selected for the project had to provide recycling and had to do so on site.

Glen Worthington, manager of planning and development for the agency, says that it hopes to complete negotiations with the company by the end of this year so RMC can break ground on the demolition work.

RMC will demolish the runways and other structures on the base at no cost to the city of Irvine, selling most of the recycled material for use in the redevelopment project.

The Great Park Corp. is governed by a board consisting of the five Irvine council members and three appointed directors who unanimously approved Recycled Materials Co.'s demolition bid over one submitted by a local partnership called Vulcan/Ortiz Enterprises Inc.
