Economic Analysis of Revitalization Strategies
The City is soliciting proposals from highly qualified planning and economic analysis firms (Consultants) to assist with an economic analysis of the downtown revitalization objectives, strategies and tactics identified in the Sustainable Community Plan (SCP) and further developed in a community engagement exercise facilitated by the consultant, and development of an implementation plan to achieve the plan’s objectives. The SCP incorporates the City’s latest assessment of downtown’s assets and detractions, vision for the future, and strategies for achieving that vision. This economic analysis and community engagement project is intended to provide the data and community support for realistic and achievable tactics that will allow us to focus on implementation in order to generate momentum and to help the City and investors make better plans and decisions to create value, manage risk, and improve our prospects for success. As a result, we anticipate this project including a cost benefit analysis and renderings of up to eight catalyst projects.
