Request for Qualifications - Consultant Services

Master Planning Services for Dubuque Warehouse District
The City of Dubuque, Iowa
Submittal Deadline: March 4, 2008

The City of Dubuque, Iowa is soliciting qualifications from consulting
firms to provide master planning services for the Dubuque Warehouse
District. The City adopted a strategy for the Warehouse District in
August 2007.The City now desires to create a comprehensive Warehouse
Master Plan that specifies the detailed action steps and resources that
are needed to develop this strategy. We expect the master planning
process will involve assessing the strategy for successful
implementation, assessing the strategy against market conditions and
opportunities, and then creating a warehouse master plan that uses the
Warehouse Strategy as its foundation.

We understand that this RFQ has several components in it and one firm
may not have the capability to accomplish all of them under one roof.
We would accept collaboration among different firms to address all the
components of the RFQ.

The Warehouse District has the support of the City of Dubuque, several
local non-profit organizations, economic development organizations, and
property owners in the district.

An original plus nine (9) copies of the proposal must be received in the
office of the City of Dubuque's Economic Development Department, 50 W.
13th Street, Dubuque, Iowa 52001 by 5:00 p.m. CDT on Tuesday, March 4,
2008.  The finalists selected by the committee will be asked for
in-person interviews during the week of March 17th.
