Murdock Village Redevelopment Initiative

17. What type of proposals should the County expect?

The request for proposals outlines numerous criteria that each proposer should consider. [Click here to view request for proposals and all addenda.] The County believes that the Murdock Village Community Redevelopment Area has entitlements of between 3,900 and 4,900 housing units and at least one million square feet of non-residential development before the need for development of regional impact review process would be triggered. The County has articulated preliminary redevelopment goals within the Murdock Village Community Redevelopment Area in the request for proposals that the County preliminarily believes would fully use the expected entitlements. However, the County has placed a premium on creativity and innovation and to the extent a proposer seeks to incorporate less housing units or less non-residential square feet of development, the proposer should demonstrate in its proposal why such lesser amounts are appropriate and justified by perceived market conditions or other relevant development considerations. The request for proposals makes it clear that each proposer should include a significant non-residential development in the form of a town center and a significant number of residential units as an integral part of any redevelopment proposal. The mix of residential units (multi-family, single family, condominium, rental units or other forms of use and ownership) will be left to each developer to determine in their respective proposals.
