About this opportunity
The City of Madison Parks Department is requesting information on development and operational models for a Northeast Park Athletic Complex to be located at 5501 Hoepker Road, with responses due November 6, 2026 at 2:00 PM Central Time. This is an RFI, not a procurement solicitation, and carries no guarantee of award or future contract issuance.
The City seeks vendor input on feasibility and development models for a year-round, multi-sport athletic complex with indoor and outdoor facilities capable of hosting regional tournaments. The 238-acre site includes approximately 150 acres of undeveloped land; some parcels are subject to deed restrictions limiting use to outdoor recreation, though the City retains the ability to port these restrictions. Preliminary planning concepts demonstrate spatial feasibility for configurations ranging from 10 soccer fields with pickleball and cricket facilities to alternative multi-sport arrangements including baseball, softball, and tennis courts.
The RFI addresses eight questions covering organizational background, development and operational models, capital and operating funding sources, legal frameworks, performance metrics, and additional considerations. The City explicitly seeks solutions with limited to no capital investment and no operating investment from the City, indicating a public-private partnership model where private entities would fund and operate the facility.
Minimum outcomes include significantly increased athletic field availability, tournament hosting capability, revenue generation potential, and alignment with the 2025-2030 Park and Open Space Plan. Desired outcomes include ecological improvements, LEED certification, sustainable practices, affordable housing if applicable, local hiring, and public transportation access.
Submissions are limited to 10 pages maximum (excluding resumes) and must be submitted electronically to bids@cityofmadison.com with RFI 15044-0-2026-BP in the subject line. A virtual question and answer session is scheduled for September 22, 2026 at 1:00 PM, with written questions due September 30, 2026 at 2:00 PM.
