This is a service / maintenance or supply contract in Locust Grove, Georgia. Contact the soliciting agency for additional information.

The City of Locust Grove is seeking a qualified consultant to lead the redevelopment of a key downtown area. This project encompasses over 8 acres, with potential expansion to nearly 15 acres, and aims to transform the area into a dynamic mixed-use development. The selected consultant will work closely with city officials, stakeholders, and the community to develop a comprehensive master plan that includes new retail, restaurant, office, and residential spaces, as well as public spaces that encourage community gathering. Such recent examples in our region include The Grove at Towne Center in Snellville, GA; Powder Springs Downtown; Suwanee Town Center; Cumming City Center; New Downtown Fayetteville, GA; and Downtown Duluth, GA just to name a few. The culmination of this will be a detailed set of drawings and a memorializing document to make necessary changes to the citys codes to facilitate implementation of the plan and provide a framework for surrounding properties not under municipal control that can develop in a manner complementary to the overall vision for the area. Key Objectives: Develop a master plan that integrates residential and nonresidential uses to create a lively downtown experience. Use of the Citys prior LCI for the downtown area may be a useful starting point for this endeavor. Ensure the project aligns with the city's vision of a Live-Work-Play environment and the "15-minute City" concept. Collaborate with stakeholders, including the Downtown Development Authority and the Locust Grove Historic Preservation Commission, to ensure the project meets community needs and expectations. Provide recommendations for site development, including public spaces, roadways, parking, and utilities. Assist in developing a project budget and phasing plan to ensure organized and orderly implementation. Call to Action: We invite experienced consultants to submit their proposals for this transformative project. The City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals, negotiate changes in the scope of work or services, and waive any technicalities.
