The City is soliciting proposals from qualified, multidisciplinary planning firms/consultants to update the Land Development Regulations. The area to be considered in this land development regulation update will include the City's urban growth boundary and corporate boundary as shown in the attached map. The land development regulations will be used to implement the vision of the City's Comprehensive Development Plan (currently out for RFQ), Major Road Plan, and Economic Development Plan.

Lakeland's current Land Development Regulations were revised in 2013 and have become overly burdensome on developers and private citizens when dealing with the City currently growth. It is the City's desire that there be significant and meaningful community participation in preparation of the updated LDRs and that the consulting team includes substantial opportunities for citizen participation in the planning process.

A full copy of the RFQ can be found at: https://www.vrapp.vendorregistry.com/Bids/View/Bid/06db6326-4da2-488b-9b98-d1664d3eafeb

Proposals will be accepted until 2:00pm CST on Thursday November 18, 2021
