This is an architectural as-built documentation file prepared for the City of Orlando's Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) in connection with the 54 West Church Street Art Space RFP (RFP26-0030). The document provides detailed as-built drawings and specifications for the arts venue formerly occupied by the Mad Cow Theatre and Fringe Arts Space. The facility comprises approximately 9,000 square feet and includes a 167-seat stadium theatre and a 66-capacity soundproof black box theatre. The CRA seeks qualified operators to manage and program this venue across multiple disciplines including theatre, dance, music, film, visual arts, and multimedia. Mandatory pre-proposal conferences are scheduled for January 15, 2026, at 3:00 PM and January 28, 2026, at 1:00 PM, both at the facility location. Questions must be submitted by February 9, 2026, at 5:00 PM, with electronic proposals due by February 19, 2026, at 2:00 PM. The City anticipates awarding a five-year management and operation agreement with potential renewal options to a qualified proposer demonstrating at least three years of experience in arts production and venue management.

The financial structure establishes a nominal annual rent of $1, with estimated monthly operational costs of approximately $5,500, comprising $2,500 in Common Area Maintenance charges and $3,000 in estimated utilities. Proposers must submit a three-year operating budget, sustainability plan, marketing strategy, renovation plan with associated budget, and artistic vision statement. Evaluation criteria weight operational plan at 25%, marketing and community impact at 25%, artistic vision at 20%, management team experience at 20%, renovation plan at 8%, and veteran business enterprise participation at 2%. Successful proposers must comply with Florida's living wage policy of $15.00 per hour for covered service positions, E-Verify employment eligibility verification, drug-free workplace certification, and non-discrimination requirements. The City reserves the right to reject any proposals and retains full discretion in the selection process.
