REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS/QUALIFICATIONS
INFRASTRUCTURE TO SUPPORT HOUSING PROJECTS
CITY OF SCOTTSBURG, INDIANA
I. PROJECT INTRODUCTION:
In accordance with IC 5-23-5, the Redevelopment Commission for the City of Scottsburg, Indiana (the “City”), invites any and all qualified parties to submit Proposals and Statements of Qualifications to develop new housing in the City, under which the City would consider requests for financial support to construct utility and road infrastructure to support the Project (the “Project”) under a public-private partnership. Although the full scope of the Project is not determined, the City has a clear need for additional housing. In order to facilitate the potential housing growth, the City is submitting this RFPQ to identify developers that are capable of scoping and developing housing. The purpose and intent of the Project is to fulfill essential economic development and quality of life goals for the City, and to meet the City’s obligation to provide safe road and utility infrastructure in a post-pandemic culture.
II. PROJECT SCOPE:
The selected proposer will provide all financing services, site procurement, development services, design services, site work, labor and material to develop and construct the Project. Proposers should include information on their proposed site (including information on how they will obtain the site if not already owned), a layout of the proposed housing and infrastructure on the site, a proposed phasing schedule, an overall budget for each phase (or average price per house), and a specific request as to what financial support is needed from the City for installation of utilities/infrastructure (i.e. – a description of the infrastructure and a proposed budget). Please note that the City will only consider requests related to public utilities and infrastructure and will not consider (nor is it legally capable of providing) financial support for the residences or lots. To the extent that any of the requested information is currently unavailable, please submit a proposal listing your qualifications and any information currently available, in which case the City may enter into a scoping period with the proposer to provide more time for the proposer to complete this information. Upon receiving a satisfactory proposal (or scoping period deliverables) from the selected proposer, the City will move forward with the Project and selected proposer via resolution or ordinance at a public hearing to complete the design, construction, and development of the infrastructure to support the proposed project. If (1) the selected proposer is unable to produce a satisfactory proposal or scoping period deliverables, or (2) the City determines that the Project is not necessary or wise, then the City will reject the proposer’s proposal or cancel this RFPQ process altogether. In either event, the resulting scoping period deliverables will be solely owned by the City, and the City may use the information from the scoping period deliverables for its future use and benefit.
III. PROPOSAL EVALUATION:
The City has formed a committee to review the proposals received. The criteria which will be utilized in evaluating proposals are as follows:
•Your experience developing similar projects
•Your demonstrated ability and capacity to perform the work, including your reputation as indicated by your references for performing this type of work
•Your proposed site and development criteria
•The amount and type of support requested from the City
IV. PROPOSALS
Please respond to the following requests:
•A description of the project team
•Identify at least three (3) similar projects you have financed and developed.
•A proposed schedule for the Project, including proposed dates to start and complete construction and information on phasing of the Project.
•A proposed approach to the Project, including approximate sales costs, site plan, and design examples. Please also include information on whether the site is already owned by the proposer, or a plan on how the land will be acquired by the proposer.
•A succinct request as to the type and amount of financial support the proposer is requesting from the City for construction of road/utility infrastructure to support the Project.
V. GENERAL CONDITIONS
It should be understood that:
•The City reserves the right to reject any and all Proposals/Statements of Qualifications at its sole discretion.
•The City does not require you to submit a certified check or other evidence of financial responsibility with your proposal other than the description of financing approach requested above.
•The amount of financial support requested from the City will be weighted equally with the proposer’s development approach and demonstrated qualifications by the selection committee when determining whether or not to move forward with the proposed project.
•All proposers will be accorded fair and equal treatment with respect to any opportunity for discussion and revision of proposals. The City may enter into discussions with proposers to clarify and assure a full understanding of proposals.
•The City may refuse to disclose the contents of the Proposals/Statement of Qualifications during discussions with eligible proposers.
•The construction of any infrastructure procured via this solicitation will be financed in partnership with the selected proposer under IC § 5-23, and therefore the Project will not utilize “public funds” as defined in IC § 5-22-2-23. Per both statutes, the selected proposer will not be subject to further procurement processes under IC § 36-1-12 or any other statute. However, the selected proposer will be required to provide a performance bond for 50% of the construction costs and a payment bond for 100% of construction costs per both IC § 5-23 and IC § 36-1-12.
•Proposing firms shall not contact City Common Council members, Scottsburg Redevelopment Commission members, or any other public officials upon release of this RFPQ other than the RFPQ Committee’s representative (the “Representative”) listed below, unless authorized or directed to do so by the Representative. All correspondence and questions for this RFPQ should be directed to the Representative as follows:
Mayor Terry Amick, City Hall, 2 E. McClain Ave., Scottsburg, Indiana 47170 or by email at tamick@cityofscottsburg.com or telephone at 812-752-4343.
•The City reserves the right to enter into a Scoping Agreement with a proposer for preliminary design and development services prior to the City agreeing to move forward with the Project. After the scoping period, the RFPQ Committee shall either make a recommendation to award the public-private agreement to a proposer (or proposers), or shall terminate the process altogether.
•Submittal: An electronic PDF of the Proposal/Statement of Qualifications should be emailed to: tamick@cityofscottsburg.com
Proposals must be received by 2:00 PM local time on May 5, 2021.
