About this opportunity
The City of Lone Tree, in partnership with South Suburban Parks and Recreation, is seeking proposals for a Beer Garden Operator for the High Note Regional Park through a Request for Concepts with Award. The procurement targets experienced bar operators to develop and manage a unique, community-oriented bar experience within a designated liquor-licensed area of the 80-acre park. The selected operator will be responsible for creating a temporary bar concept, potentially utilizing shipping-container structures or a retrofitted RTD light rail car, with the requirement to open concurrently with the park's anticipated grand opening in late summer 2027. Proposals are due by November 21, 2025, at 5:30 p.m., with the park's first phase expected to break ground in spring 2026. The City is looking for operators to propose creative concepts, operating models, and revenue-sharing structures that reflect local character and enhance the community experience. Evaluation criteria will focus on concept strength, operator qualifications, financial soundness, clarity of roles, and alignment with creating a vibrant, family-friendly gathering space. The proposal must comprehensively address concept vision, menu and beverage program, operations plan, operator qualifications, financial terms, outfitting responsibilities, licensing compliance, and community engagement.
The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. The City anticipates holding the liquor license and will contract directly with the selected operator, offering flexibility in operating approaches and revenue-sharing models. The first phase of the park project has an approximate budget of $32 million, with the beer garden operation expected to run for 5-10 years before a permanent structure is constructed. The operator will need to provide beverage service within the park's dog park area and demonstrate the ability to create an innovative, community-oriented bar experience. While no incumbent vendors are mentioned, the successful operator must be prepared to integrate with the park's existing infrastructure and comply with local licensing requirements. The City is seeking a financially viable and creative approach that can contribute to the quality of life for the south Denver metro community, with the potential for a long-term partnership that extends beyond the initial temporary structure.
