The Recreation and Park Commission for the Parish of East Baton Rouge (BREC) is issuing this Request for Proposals (RFPs) from highly qualified and innovative design teams to develop a master plan for the 660-acre Greenwood Community Park.

In that LaPAC provides an immediate e-mail notification to proposers that a solicitation and any subsequent addenda have been let and posted, notice and receipt thereof is considered formally given as of their respective dates of posting dates.
