Specifications include, but are not limited to: 1. Existing Conditions Plan - Using existing GIS information available from the City, the Consultant shall prepare a plan of existing conditions showing existing limits of right-of-way (ROW), available elevations, areas of previously approved outdoor dining, structures, easements, edge of road, driveways, sidewalks, street trees and landscaping, street furniture, parking, pavement markings, public utilities, and signage. 2. Public Engagement and Input - In collaboration with the City, the Consultant shall organize and lead an interactive and intensive public outreach and input process meeting as well as other public participation activities that may include online collaborative whiteboard platforms, social media, interviews, and surveys for the purpose of identifying and assessing current uses as well as determining desired uses, features, and amenities. Such information will be used to identify community goals and objectives for Market Square as well as for the Consultant to develop up to three alternative concept plans for the Square. 3. Shared Vision Plan - Through an interactive public outreach and input process, the Consultant shall refine the three alternative plans into a final Shared Vision Plan. Such Plan shall have both a written narrative with color graphics and illustrations of a final Shared Vision Plan and an annotated Shared Vision Plan of the proposed improvements for the Market Square area. This plan will be used for the development of preliminary engineering plans for the project as well as for reference by the City when working with private property owners and utility companies regarding private work or improvements in the public way. 4. Expanded Outdoor Dining Study - Given the enhanced focus on outdoor dining since Covid 19 the expanded outdoor dining study area should provide a rationale for expanding the areas of outdoor dining in a more visually appealing and integrated way while also acknowledging and enhancing accessibility to these locations.
