Addendum_Form.docx

This is an Addendum Form for the City of Phoenix's Main Line Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) solicitation, which seeks proposals from urban design and urban planning firms for strategic updates to Transit Oriented Community Plans along the Valley Metro Rail corridor. The addendum extends the offer due date to October 18, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. The solicitation targets services focused on creating an opt-in rezoning process, developing mixed-income housing and mixed-use design scenarios, refining the Walkable Urban Code, and updating TOC policy plans. The project includes extensive community engagement requirements with design charrettes and public meetings across different planning areas. The contract term is anticipated to commence on or about January 1, 2026, for a two-year period, with a pre-offer conference held on August 13, 2025, and original proposals due by September 12, 2025, prior to this addendum's extension.

The solicitation emphasizes participation of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs) and small businesses, with the City implementing a Small Business Participation Plan subject to Department of Transportation DBE program requirements. Contractors must demonstrate good faith efforts to engage DBE-certified and small business firms, with initial participation plans due 30 calendar days after contract award and subsequent annual submissions on contract anniversary dates. Tracking and monthly reporting of DBE and small business participation is required through the City's Certification and Compliance System. The project is funded through federal transit assistance and addresses Phoenix's rapid population growth and housing shortage while navigating legal constraints including Proposition 207 and state prohibitions on inclusionary zoning. Offerors must acknowledge receipt and acceptance of this addendum through the City's Procurement Portal.
