We received responses from the following nine developers. I am very pleased with the number and quality of the respondents. Firm National Headquarters Regional Office Alpert International LLLP Dallas, TX Mercer Island Civic Partners Huntington Beach, CA None Essence Company San Diego, CA None Flaherty Collins Indianapolis, IN None Legacy Foster City, CA Mercer Island LIHI (Low Income Housing Institute) Seattle, WA Seattle Opus Northwest, LLC Minnetonka, MN Bellevue Panattoni Sacramento, CA Tukwila Tarragon Seattle, WA Seattle We are currently reviewing the responses to determine the three developers who are the most qualified for this project and from whom we will request proposals. This is a two step process. First, we establish which developers are qualified. Second, we determine the three most qualified. This analysis is based on: (1) developer's experience, (2) the developer's financial strength, and (3) how well the developer's concept fits the City's vision for Tukwila Village. I will provide additional information and announce the qualified list at the City Council meeting on April 28 We plan to complete our analysis and then announce the three most qualified by May 1st I am working on the Request for Proposals (RFP) that we will issue to the three most qualified developers. Per Council request, we will seek Council approval before issuing the RFP. I anticipate Council consideration of the RFP on May 5 and May 12. If we are able to adhere to this schedule, we should receive the developer proposals in mid -June and have a community meeting in late June (tentatively June 25th or 26th) and Council selection of one developer in early July. Please contact me at 206 433 -1832 or dspeck @ci.tukwila.wa.us if you have any questions.
