About this file
This is a Request for Proposal (RFP #FY27-RFP-047) issued by the Town of Provincetown, Massachusetts, through its Chief Procurement Officer, seeking qualified developers for mixed-income ownership housing development. The project involves two adjacent town-owned parcels located at 26 Shank Painter Road and 15 Browne Street totaling approximately 0.4 acres. The Town seeks development of a minimum of 24 residential units, with preference for additional units as permitted under the Shank Painter Form-Based Code Zoning District, which allows up to four stories with a minimum 25% affordable or community units. The development concept must include a mix of affordability levels ranging from 80% to 200% AMI, with strong preference for units serving 80% to 150% AMI, prioritizing first-time homebuyers with local preference for Provincetown residents, workers, and those with children in Provincetown schools. A non-mandatory site visit is scheduled for November 2, 2026, at 12:00 p.m., with pre-registration required. The question submission deadline is November 23, 2026, at 12:00 a.m., with responses due November 24, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. Proposals are due November 30, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. The selected developer must execute a Land Development Agreement and Purchase and Sales Agreement within 90 days of selection, begin permitting work within 60 days of agreement execution, and complete development within 3 years of the Purchase and Sales Agreement execution.
The Town approved a financial appropriation of up to $4 million at the April 2025 Annual Town Meeting to subsidize the project as "last money in," committed only after other financing sources are secured, subject to a grant agreement and perpetual affordable housing restriction held by the Town. Proposers must demonstrate a minimum of 5 years' housing development experience, a successful track record with at least 2 similar projects, and provide 3 references. Required submission materials include a detailed development concept, site design and architectural plans, color renderings, financial pro forma, letters of interest from construction and permanent lenders, a marketing plan aligned with affirmative fair housing standards, and proof of tax compliance and non-collusion. The evaluation process consists of a pass/fail minimum threshold assessment followed by point-based scoring of developer experience and capacity, affordability provisions, site design, infrastructure and green design elements, building design, financial feasibility, and references. All proposals must be submitted by the deadline with no extensions granted, and remain binding on the proposer for 120 calendar days following the opening date.

1.0 Purpose
The Town of Provincetown prepared this RFP to solicit responses from interested parties to select a developer with demonstrated experience and capacity to carry out a development project that best addresses the needs and goals of the community as described in this RFP. The most advantageous proposal, from a responsive and responsible proposer, taking into consideration all evaluation criteria set forth in the RFP, will be selected.
2.0 Background
The Town of Provincetown (“Town”), through its Chief Procurement Officer, is seeking proposals from qualified developers for the creation of mixed-income ownership housing on two adjacent town-owned parcels located at 26 Shank Painter Road and 15 Browne Street in Provincetown. The parcels total approximately 0.4 acres combined. Article 9 of the Provincetown Zoning Bylaw allows three-story buildings and potentially up to four stories when providing a minimum 25% Affordable or Community units in the Shank
Painter Form-Based Code District; such that the Town would prefer to see proposals that fully utilize the property in compliance with the Zoning Bylaw.
The Town intends to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement, and a Land Development Agreement (“LDA”) with restrictions as defined in this RFP, with the selected developer to convey the property through a lottery to eligible buyers conducted by the Town. The developer will be responsible for the design, construction, and development of the units on the property. The Town would like to see a mix of affordability levels, ranging from 80% AMI to 200% AMI, with a preference for the majority of units serving 80% AMI to 150% AMI with a local preference for those living in Provincetown, working in Provincetown, or having children who attend
Provincetown Schools, as allowed by subsidy regulations and the recent state Seasonal Communities designation and guidelines. Units shall also require the buyer to be a First Time Home Buyer and be designated year-round units via a deed restriction as allowed for in the Seasonal Communities guidelines.
Interested Proposers are encouraged to attend a voluntary on-site briefing session at 12:00 p.m. on, November 2, 2026 at 26 Shank Painter Road. Attendees should pre-register for the session by emailing scorea@provincetown-ma.gov. The site visit is not mandatory; however, all proposers must familiarize themselves with the property by undertaking an independent review and analysis of physical conditions, regulatory constraints, required permit and approvals, and other legal considerations. If a Proposer is unavailable for the scheduled on-site briefing session, the Town is available to make alternative arrangements for site visit by request.
Proposers’ Responsibility for due diligence
Proposers should undertake their own review and analysis concerning physical conditions, environmental conditions, applicable zoning, required permits and approvals, and other development and legal considerations. Each Proposer shall undertake its own review and analysis (due diligence) concerning the physical and environmental condition of the property, applicable zoning and other land use laws, required permits and approvals, and other development, ownership and legal considerations pertaining to the property and the use of the property, and shall be responsible for applying for and obtaining any and all permits and approvals necessary or convenient for the Proposer’s use. All costs and expenses of leasing and developing the property, including, without limitation, the costs of permitting and improvements, shall be the sole responsibility of the successful proposer.
3.0 Town of Provincetown Team
The Town’s team consists.
• Town Manager/ Chief Procurement officer
• Deputy Town Manager
• Housing Director
• Community Development Director
• Town Planner
• Select Board Member
The Town will use the assistance of its Town Council in its RFP process, evaluation, interview, final selection, contract negotiation, and oversight of the project’s implementation.
4.0 Project Scope
Site
The property consists of two adjacent parcels that have frontage on Shank Painter Road and Browne Street.
The first parcel is located at 26 Shank Painter Road in Provincetown and is identified as Assessor’s Map 7-2
Parcel 68. It contains approximately 13,240 square feet. The adjacent parcel at 15 Browne Street is identified as Assessor’s Map 7-2 Parcel 70 and contains 4,418 square feet, for a combined total of approximately 0.40 acre. (See Locus maps Attachment B). The property is located at the intersection of Shank Painter Road and
Browne Street. It is the site of the former Provincetown Police Station, which has been demolished by the
Town in anticipation of development, and is currently used for temporary parking. The Site is bordered by a condominium development to the west and a church to the east. The topography of the Site is generally flat, with elevations ranging from approximately elevation 8 to 9 ft. (NAVD88).
The Site is located close to downtown Provincetown, and is within half a mile of many community resources, including a grocery store, restaurants, churches, and primary schools.
Ownership
Please see Attachment C for the Deed and Town Meeting Vote authorizing disposition.
Zoning
The property is located within the Shank Painter Road Form-Based Code Zoning District, Tier 1 (SPFBC). (See
Article 9 of the Provincetown Zoning Bylaws: https://www.provincetown-ma.gov/DocumentCenter/View/20827/2026-06-30---Zoning-Bylaw---Jun-30-2026.) The SPFBC is a mixed-use zone that encourages activated ground floor uses with residential on the upper stories, including allowing up to four stories when providing a minimum 25% Affordable or Community units with a Special Permit from the
Planning Board. The purpose of the SPFBC is to promote a vibrant mixed-use corridor that prioritizes:
• Traditional development patterns and architecture that are compatible with the immediate context and reflect the historic character of the Town
• Encouraging pedestrian and cyclist uses along the corridor by creating active ground floor uses and appropriate building façades along lot frontages
• Allowing more forms of housing that addresses the needs of year-round residents
• Minimizing the visibility of vehicle parking and access in property frontages along Shank Painter Road.
Affordable and Community Housing shall be designated by the Community Housing Council, and can serve households earning 80%-150% AMI.
Utilities
• Water: Public
• Sewer: Public
• Electric:
• Gas:
Development Objectives
The Town is seeking a developer to build at least twenty-four (24), but ideally additional residential units as the site may allow and as permitted under the Zoning Bylaw. The minimum number of units (24) is based on a community engagement process conducted in 2019 and should be considered a base number with preferred consideration for additional residential units. The Town would like to see a mix of affordability levels, ranging from 80% AMI to 200% AMI, with a strong preference for the majority of units serving 80% AMI to 150% AMI with a local preference for those living in Provincetown, working in Provincetown, or having children who attend Provincetown Schools, as allowed by subsidy regulations and the recent state Seasonal Communities designation and guidelines. Units shall also require the buyer to be a First Time Home Buyer and be designated year-round units via a deed restriction as allowed for in the Seasonal Communities guidelines.
The Town would prefer to see a mix of studios and one-bedroom units, as well as some two-bedroom units.
This bedroom mix should be based on the Town’s needs, the site’s capacity, good site planning and landscaping considerations, and the market and financial feasibility of a mixed-income housing development at this location. In particular, the unit mix should reflect the needs identified in current housing studies, including resident application data from the Province Post, and Provincetown’s Housing Needs Assessment, which indicates a strong need for units for smaller households.
The Town encourages the proposers to explore the Seasonal Communities designation as it can apply to this project, to encourage the development of Town employee housing, essential employees, artists, etc.
The development will be subject to a Land Development Agreement (See example in Attachment D) in form that is acceptable to the Town.
Parking ratios for the site would favor more residential units over parking; however, the Town is interested in seeing creative solutions from Developers who can identify additional on-site or off-site parking relief opportunities.
Affordability
The Town is looking for a range of affordability levels from 80% AMI up to 200% AMI, but would consider proposals that include a wider income span to the extent feasible. However, the Town is most interested in proposals where all or the majority of the units fall within the preferred income range up to 150% AMI. If the developer proposes another unit mix, they should include a clear analysis as to the levels of affordability proposed and the reasoning behind the proposed unit and income mix.
For units with affordability restrictions, the developer shall enter into a Regulatory Agreement with the
Subsidizing Agency and the Town on terms acceptable to the parties and shall, at the Town’s request, grant the Town a separate affordable housing restriction on terms acceptable to the Town and be in form and substance acceptable to the Executive Office of Housing and Livable Communities (“HLC”).
Unit Types
The development should reflect the housing needs of Provincetown, as described in the studies in Attachment
F. The Town would like to see the inclusion of studios, one- and two-bedroom units as described above. Unit design should also consider universal design and visitability elements to the extent possible, as well as accessibility.
Building Design and Aesthetics
The development’s architecture should reflect and be compatible with the existing traditional architecture and style of the Provincetown community. The goal is for the development to look like it belongs in Provincetown.
The Town of Provincetown encourages the following considerations for design:
• Maximizing residential units as allowable under the Zoning Bylaw and as stated in the goals
• Native landscaping
• Outdoor common area
• Ample storage for residents
• Covered bicycle storage racks
• Onsite laundry facilities and/or in-unit laundry
• Parking ratios for the site would favor more residential units over parking as waivers from the parking requirement could be sought
• Areas for trash and recycling receptacles
• Sensitivity to neighborhood and adjacent properties in terms of construction phasing, site access, and building placement.
Energy Efficiency
The Town is looking for proposals that include building and site designs that reduce the residents’ energy, water usage and cost, and limit the project’s environmental impact. Proposals that meet Passive House, LEED or other energy efficiency standards are preferred. Proposers are encouraged to consider sources such as energy efficiency rebate programs, as well as lender and State incentives. Details regarding sustainable design features should be incorporated into the proposal.
Project Permitting
Proposals should include a description of the municipal permitting process that the developer plans to use. While the existing zoning described above allows for multi-family housing, the Town would also encourage permitting through M.G.L. Chapter 40B (Comprehensive Permit law) if it would be more efficient for the project as proposed.
Income Restricted Sales and Lottery Management
The Town will be responsible for administering and conducting the lottery for the affordable homeownership units, including establishing lottery procedures, reviewing applicant eligibility, and selecting eligible applicants in accordance with applicable requirements.
The successful respondent’s development team must demonstrate experience with affordable homeownership programs, including familiarity with eligibility requirements, Fair Housing, Local Preference, applicant documentation, income and asset verification, marketing and outreach, and affordable housing lottery procedures. Respondents should identify specific projects in which members of the proposed team have supported or coordinated an affordable homeownership lottery or similar applicant selection process, particularly in coordination with a municipality or other public agency.
The selected development team will be expected to coordinate closely with the Town and provide all necessary information, documentation, and administrative support to facilitate the lottery and subsequent sales process. If the proposed team does not have the requisite experience at the time of submission, the
Respondent shall describe how such experience will be obtained, including any proposed consultants or other professionals, the process for procuring their services, and the qualifications and performance standards expected of such parties.
Potential Town of Provincetown Incentives
The Town is prepared to offer indirect and direct financial assistance and subsidy to this project to meet the stated goals. At the April 2025 Annual Town Meeting, Town voters approved a financial appropriation of up to
$4 Million as a Town contribution for housing development at the site to ensure the project meets the Town’s goals. The Town’s contribution shall be considered ‘last money in’ and shall be committed only after all other identified sources of project financing have been secured, subject to a grant agreement approved by the
Select Board with the Developer which shall include the acquisition of an affordable housing restriction in perpetuity to be held by the Town. In addition to funds available for direct financial subsidy, the Town of
Provincetown has incentive policies for the creation of community and affordable housing, see Attachment G.

K. Proposers may add additional stipulations or otherwise qualify their proposals, but the Town shall retain the sole right to judge the importance of any such stipulation or qualification. If the Town determines that the stipulation or qualification is not in its best interest and/or is materially unacceptable, and if the Proposer does not clearly indicate this to be an alternative for consideration, then the Town reserves the right to reject such proposal.
L. Selection of a Proposer’s proposal will not create any rights on the Proposer’s part, including, without limitation, rights of enforcement, equity or reimbursement, until the Land Development Agreement and all related documents are fully executed.
M. It is understood, agreed upon and made a part hereof, and shall be a part of the Land Development
Agreement, that the Agreement entered into between the Town and the Proposer shall not be assigned or assignable by way of sub-contract or otherwise, unless or until the Town shall have first assented thereto in writing.
