Phase 1- This project's development will involve the creation of a Self-Evaluation. The Self-Evaluation must identify the physical obstacles that limit the accessibility of the City's programs, services, activities, communications, and facilities to individuals with disabilities. The City will require that the Consultant meet with the City-County Task Force on Disabilities, and ADA Coordinator to solicit input on barriers to accessibility during the Self-Evaluation process. The Self-Evaluation will serve as the basis for complying with the legal requirements as mandated by the ADA and State of Pennsylvania codes. Phase 2- This will involve the creation of the Transition Plan, including an Action Plan and Community Engagement Strategy. The Transition Plan shall include recommendations for phased corrective work in order to comply with state and federal accessibility requirements. It will also provide the basis for prioritizing, budgeting, implementing, and monitoring barrier removal. In addition to developing the Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan, the City's objectives for consulting services awarded through this RFP are to identify and seek creative solutions to removing barriers and expanding accessibility to all members of the public. The consultant's recommendations should differentiate between what is required by law and what is not required but worthy of consideration. The Community Engagement Strategy must include a means for the City to receive comments on the ADA Transition Plan from the general public. Bid Bond A Bid Bond is required.
