BACKGROUND
On May 26, 2022, the City of Dallas released a Request for Proposals (RFP) for commercial development of approximately 1.23 acres of vacant City-owned property located at 3011-3039 South Lancaster Road (the “site”) generally located at the northwest corner of South Lancaster Road and East Corning Avenue.
In releasing the RFP, the City sought commercial development proposals for the site that can achieve the following objectives:
• applies an urban design approach that complements the scale and character of the surrounding area, while respecting the existing context, features, assets, and elements
• aligns with the City’s (a) conceptual site plan for the site and (b) plans, policies, and goals including those established by the ForwardDallas Comprehensive Plan, the Lancaster Corridor Station Area Plan, TOD TIF District Project Plan, and Urban Design Guidelines for Projects Located in City of Dallas TIF Districts
• leverages the City’s financial investment for development of the site in a public-private partnership while respecting the vitality and quality of the surrounding neighborhood with priority given to projects that include sit-down restaurant uses, and/or include a retail use (e.g. bank) that is underrepresented in the neighborhood surrounding the site
A four-member committee from the following departments reviewed and evaluated the proposals:
• Department of Housing & Neighborhood Revitalization (1)
• Department of Planning and Urban Design (2)
• Office of Economic Development (1)
The committee selected the successful respondent based on the following criteria:
• Financial capacity 25 points
• Project scope 25 points
• Financial impact to the City 25 points
• Experience 15 points
• Community Outreach Plan 10 points
As part of the solicitation process and in an effort to increase competition, the Office of Procurement Services used its procurement system to send out email notifications to vendors registered under relevant commodity codes. To further increase competition, the Office of Procurement Services used historical solicitation information, the internet, and vendor contact information obtained from user departments to contact additional vendors.
