The U.S. government is auctioning off a 51-acre site at the Southfield property in South Weymouth over the objections of the local agency responsible for redeveloping the former naval air station.
The Southfield Redevelopment Authority will receive nearly $1 million a year to help pay for its operations after entering an exclusive negotiating agreement with the potential new master developer at the 1,450-acre former air base.
LStar has struggled to attract development to the former South Weymouth Naval Air Station property.
