They are preparing an RFQ, which is different from the RFP process they went through with the original developer. Rather than solicit specific proposals, they are looking to select a development partner that the city can work with to design the project.
The parameters for the project were previously:
- Number of Units: 300
- Park Space: 1.25 Acres
- Community Amenities: 7k sq ft commercial/community space
- Coordination w Cap Metro on transit plaza and bike/ped access through site
- Income Levels: 50% rental units affordable @ 60% MFI or below, 50% ownership units at 80% MFI or below
The new updated parameters are:
- Number of Units: 300
- Park Space: 1.25 Acres
- Community Amenities: commercial/community space as permitted by funding sources
- Coordination w Cap Metro on transit plaza and bike/ped access through site
- Income Levels: 20% units affordable @ 50% MFI, 30% @ 80% MFI, 40% @ 100% MFI, 10% @ market rate. All rental.
They are asking for public input at:

It would be good for transit/density/housing advocates to share their opinions on the site above. It seems to have attracted development skeptics based on a quick read of the more recent messages.
They've also been holding office hours to ask for comments/questions throughout town and through zoom.
