SUMMARY
DESCRIPTION
A municipality in Colorado is seeking a qualified vendor to conduct a comprehensive housing needs assessment and develop an action plan that incorporates strategic growth and water supply elements. The project requires mapping potential infill and expansion areas using GIS technology, as well as preparing draft text and maps suitable for adoption into the jurisdiction’s Comprehensive Plan.
Key responsibilities include identifying and evaluating regulatory barriers to housing production—such as zoning ordinances, development standards, and permitting processes—and estimating realistic housing unit capacity under current and alternative zoning scenarios using GIS-based analysis. The selected vendor will also recommend programs, incentives, and funding strategies to support affordable and workforce housing, develop anti-displacement and housing preservation strategies for vulnerable populations, and provide policy recommendations that integrate water resource sustainability with land use planning.
All GIS data, maps, and visualization files must be delivered in editable formats with comprehensive metadata. This opportunity is ideal for planning and consulting firms with expertise in housing policy, land use planning, GIS analysis, and water resource integration.
