The City of Nacogdoches requests qualifications (RFQs) from qualified individuals or firms for BOTH a Comprehensive Plan Update and a new Downtown Master Plan.

The last update to the city's Comprehensive Plan was in 2003. The City has experienced slow but steady growth over the past several years, but is anticipating an increase in traffic counts and an increased economic opportunity for Nacogdoches with ongoing and future upgrades and improvements to the US-59/Future I-69 Corridor within the City. This Comprehensive Plan Update will include a Housing Needs Assessment and Future I-69 Corridor Plan.

The Downtown Master Plan will create a vision for Downtown Nacogdoches, including building facades, streetscapes, pedestrian access, parking and other public amenities. The Plan will serve as the guiding document for anticipated growth, development and revitalization of the Downtown area and will act as a framework for future ordinances and initiatives; including coordinated strategies to help reinvigorate the Downtown area and make it an attractive place to live, work, and play.

Consultants are invited to submit qualifications for performing both the Comprehensive Plan Update AND the Downtown Master Plan. If two different consulting teams are selected, both will be expected to work together to ensure there is no conflicting information and duplication of efforts.
