In-fill residential development opportunity

The City of Tolleson, Arizona is issuing a Request for Information to solicit industry feedback on affordable residential infill development on four City-owned parcels, with responses due October 21, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. (Phoenix local time). This is an information-gathering exercise only and carries no obligation to award, convey property, or issue a formal solicitation.

The four parcels total approximately 1.2 acres and are located near downtown Tolleson adjacent to schools, civic facilities, and commercial areas. Two parcels at 9213 W Polk Street and 9215 W Polk Street each measure 6,850 square feet under C-2 zoning (full cash value $118,200 each). Two parcels at 9101 W Pierce Street measure 6,475 and 6,591 square feet, respectively (combined full cash value $224,600). Respondents may submit proposals addressing one site, both sites, or all parcels collectively.

The City seeks development concepts addressing affordable housing supply, attainable and workforce housing, senior housing, mixed-income developments, high-quality construction, energy efficiency, and neighborhood revitalization. Required submission components include a firm-interest summary (maximum 5,000 characters), developer qualifications with prior infill or affordable housing project examples, preliminary concept narratives addressing site layout, housing type, density and design, funding and financial approach descriptions including potential partners, and anticipated development timelines. All submissions must be submitted electronically through the OpenGov Procurement Portal.

The City reserves the right to use, reject, or modify any concept submitted, or to pursue a future Request for Proposals, Invitation for Bids, development agreement process, or other procurement method at its sole discretion. No contract value, term, or incumbent is identified.
