The next step is to issue a request for proposals (RFP). The Council has requested to approve the RFP before it is issued. Backiround This item was discussed at the City Council meeting on 5/12/08. The staff memo for that agenda item contains additional background information. Discussion It is not practical for the RFP to state all City policies and requirements for this development because many policy issues will need to be addressed once a developer has been selected and we are in negotiations. At this stage, however, it is helpful to indicate where we have consensus around some policy issues to make it easier for comparing the three developer proposals. Even if we have consensus now on certain policy issues, we can still change that at a later time. Based on the Council discussion on 5/12/08 and staff recommendations, the draft RFP addresseses some policy questions in the following manner: (1) Location of Plaza and Library: The RFP requires the library, outdoor plaza, police neighborhood resource center, and a coffee shop to be located on the north parcels. (2) Entitlements (zoning, units /acre, and height): The RFP indicates the City is willing to consider changes in certain entitlements such as building height or allowable uses but we are not willing to change certain other entitlements such as required open space. (3) "Activating the Space The RFP requires the proposals to include an outdoor plaza and stronely encourages some indoor public meeting/gathering space and states that we are willing to consider a partnership with the developer in terms of leasing and scheduling the space. (4) Workforce Housing: The RFP strongly encourages the proposals, if they include a residential component, to ensure a portion of the housing will be affordable to the workforce earning a mixed range of incomes but not below 50% of the County's area median income (AMI). Next steps: If the Council approves issuance an RFP, we could receive the developer proposals in mid June with a community meeting in late June (tentatively June 25th or 26th) and Council selection of one developer in July.
