About this file
This is an exhibit questionnaire for a master developer solicitation issued by the Point of the Mountain State Land Authority for the River District For-Sale Housing phase of The Point development in Utah. Prospective developers must submit detailed product proposals including specifications for single-family dwelling units at various price points, with submissions due by October 16, 2026 at noon MT, and questions due by September 30, 2026 at 5 PM MT. The questionnaire requires developers to provide comprehensive information on proposed housing products organized by unit type, including number of units, lot sizes, base and average pricing, vertical construction costs, delivery timelines, and sell-out projections across designated parcels and density levels.
Beyond product specifications, the questionnaire evaluates developers' strategies across eight key areas aligned with The Point's guiding principles: innovation and economic growth integration, housing attainability and homeownership facilitation for various income levels, optimal density balancing, neighborhood character and walkability, parks and open space allocation, revenue generation timelines and deal structures, sustainability and energy efficiency integration, and overall community concept design. Developers must demonstrate how their proposals address the state mandate for next-generation innovation, detail specific tools and methodologies for implementation, provide conceptual site plans, and include floor plans, elevations, renderings, and examples of prior built projects. The submission is limited to a single file not exceeding 1GB, with evaluation focusing on how proposed communities leverage The Point's mixed-use environment while creating distinctive neighborhood character and housing diversity.
