Request For Proposals - Planning Services

The City of Platteville is seeking written proposals from qualified planning individuals and project consultant teams to provide planning assistance for three projects.  Assistance is requested with 1) Strategic Planning services, 2) an update to the Comprehensive Plan, and 3) an update to the Parks and Recreation Comprehensive Plan. Click here to view the full Planning Services RFP.

The purpose of the strategic planning session is to affirm the City mission, values, and financial tenets, and to identify the common council’s operational priorities, policy goals, and strategic objectives.  It is intended that these items will be compiled and published into a “Council Vision” report. This report will be referenced in the annual strategic planning process to build capital improvement plans, operational budgets and guide daily operations.

The City seeks an experienced consultant to facilitate discussion and guide planning sessions with the Platteville Common Council (supported by staff) in compliance with open meetings laws.  The number of desired sessions would be at least three (no single meeting lasting longer than 2 hours), but as many sessions as are needed to reach an adopted report. 

Information regarding the prior Strategic Plans can be viewed on the City’s website at https://www.platteville.org/citymanager/page/values-and-strategic-plan

The existing Comprehensive Plan was completed in 2013.  This plan can be viewed on the City’s website at https://www.platteville.org/cd/page/2013-city-and-town-platteville-comprehensive-plan.
