INFORMATION: The Town released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the Parking Study on August 20th (Attachment B). Following the Board's direction and considering that the RFP could yield more respondents than could reasonably be considered in an interview process involving the whole of the Board of Aldermen, the RFP included a provision that the top two proposals would be required to present their proposals. Three submittals were received by the deadline of September 10th and, while varying in approaches, all exhibit understanding of the project's goals, experience with comparable efforts and capacity to carry out the requested study. The Town is requesting that all three firms meet with the Board of Aldermen to present their proposals and provide other information that may assist the Board in determining how it wishes to proceed with the project.
The three proposals received were:
* JM Teague - $67,355
* Kimley-Horn - $163,530
* VHB - $73,000
