This is a Price Proposal exhibit for the City of Sarasota's Invitation to Negotiate (ITN) for a Downtown Master Plan Update project. The solicitation seeks consulting firms to update the existing Sarasota Downtown Master Plan 2020 through a comprehensive scope of work that includes reviewing and analyzing existing conditions, identifying needs, and developing recommended solutions. The project emphasizes expertise in urban planning with focus areas including waterfront amenities, parks and open spaces, streetscape improvements, community engagement, transportation planning, historic preservation, workforce housing, and climate resiliency. Proposals were due by March 3, 2026, with evaluations scheduled for March and interviews and negotiations planned for March/April, followed by anticipated City Commission approval in April. The initial contract term is three years, with two potential one-year renewal options, allowing for a maximum contract period of five years.

Proposers must submit an all-inclusive price for services covering the initial three-year term (which includes Deliverable 1 and Deliverable 2), pricing for the first renewal year, and pricing for the second renewal year, with the five-year total calculated accordingly. Pricing must be entered entirely into the OpenGov portal and cannot be submitted as additional price sheets with the proposal. The solicitation allocates only 5 points of the 100-point evaluation criteria to cost, with the remaining points distributed across Proposer Experience (25 points), Team Experience (25 points), Approach (40 points), and Capacity (5 points). No specific budget range is stated in the solicitation. The City reserves the right to reject any or all proposals and to negotiate pricing with selected respondents before making a final award recommendation to the City Commission. No incumbent vendors are mentioned, and no explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are specified.
