Project Summary
The City of Thomasville Georgia is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) for a multidisciplinary consultant team to develop a detailed Comprehensive Plan and regional-scale Character Area Map to guide both the pattern of future settlement and character of development. Consensus-based goals, objectives, and strategies will involve all aspects of City administration and community life, providing a common point of reference for all those involved in shaping the City’s future, including elected and appointed officials, City staff, citizens, businesses, and civic organizations.
Two proposals are requested, a “City-only” Comprehensive Plan and “joint City-County” Comprehensive Plan, both of which will require a regional Growth Framework Map based on “Character Areas.” This State mandated element should take the structure of a sector analysis or similar “place type” assessment.
Respondents to the RFP are encouraged to suggest creative or innovative approaches to this Plan, including public outreach, education, and place-based visioning that is in keeping with the tenants of new urbanism.
RFP DUE DATE: NO LATER THAN October 07, 2016 @ 3:00 P.M. EST
