Faxed, e-mailed and/or unsigned proposals will not be accepted. City of Oshkosh Page 2 of 8 RFP Zoning Ordinance Rewrite 1) GENERAL INFORMATION The City of Oshkosh (City), through this Request for Proposals(RFP), is seeking qualified planning and zoning consultants,multi-disciplinary firms or teams to undertake a two-stage zoning ordinance rewrite project. Part I involves the immediate development of an overlay zoning district creating design and in-fill standards for the City's "traditional"/historic residential neighborhoods. Part II involves the complete rewrite of the City's Zoning Ordinance transitioning it from the current Euclidean type ordinance to a hybrid Euclidean and form-based zoning ordinance. RFP responders are being asked to submit proposals for both parts of this RFP but should note that only Part I is budgeted at this time. The successful respondent for Part I will not necessarily be awarded the Part II work. The City will evaluate each part independently but will give some preference to the successful Part I responder, Budgeting for Part 11 will be based in part upon the successful proposal as determined by the City 2) BACKGROUND INFORMATION The City of Oshkosh, Wisconsin was incorporated in 1853 and is the largest city in Winnebago County with approximately 67,000 residents. The City encompasses an area over 24 square miles with a significant amount of shoreline due to the presence of the Fox River, Lake Butte des Morts, and Lake Winnebago. It is the County Seat of Winnebago County and contains many governmental uses including a state prison, state university, and county airport. Development in the City is comprised of a relatively equal mix of traditional neighborhood development with a historic downtown and newer more suburban style residential development and highway frontage commercial including an outlet mall,big box retail and modern industrial parks. The City shares no boundaries with other incorporated municipalities and has been one of the fastest growing communities in the state. The City of Oshkosh's last comprehensive update of its Zoning Ordinance occurred in 1997 with multiple amendments over the past 15 years. The existing zoning ordinance includes a wide range of sections such as Euclidean zoning districts, sign regulations, subdivision code and historic preservation ordinance. The Oshkosh Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 30 of the Municipal Code) can be viewed online at http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi.us/Community_DevelopmentlPIanning_Services/zoning_or dinance.asp. As the zoning ordinance is dated, it does not always reflect the best contemporary zoning and planning practices and many of the requirements do not reflect existing conditions or accommodate older development areas and has thus resulted in a large number of nonconformities and allows inappropriate development. The proliferation of out of place in-fill and often inappropriate structure rehabilitation has prompted the City to request immediate action to halt this trend. City of Oshkosh Page 3 of 8 RFP Zoning Ordinance Rewrite Additionally, the City's Comprehensive Plan, which was updated 2005 to meet the State's "Smart Growth" statute,contains many development related goals that are to be implemented through the Zoning Ordinance. The City therefore desires a rewrite of the entire zoning ordinance to better align its regulation to those goals and objectives. The Oshkosh Comprehensive Plan can be viewed online at http://www.ci.oshkosh.wi,us/Community Development/Planning Services/comprehe nsivejDlan.asp During the course of both parts of the project, the Consultant shall work with elected and appointed officials, city boards and committees, city staff, special interest groups and the general public. The consultant will be required to develop a public participation process that actively engages the aforementioned groups throughout the process, while meeting the project's budget and timeframe. 3) PROJECT OVERVIEW AND OBJECTIVES The general purpose of both parts of the project is the comprehensive rewrite the City of Oshkosh Zoning Ordinance thereby making it consistent with the goals and objectives of the City's Comprehensive Plan as well as other community planning documents such as smaller area development plans, the Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation Plan,the Sustainability Plan, etc. The project is to be completed in two parts as described below: Part I-Overlay District The City has an immediate desire to develop an overlay zoning district for our "traditional"/historic residential neighborhoods that are generally located in the older central city areas of the community,as identified on the attached map. The overlay district will address the following objectives: (a) Encompass a geographic area(s) of the City of Oshkosh that logically represent different periods and styles of the City's development. (b) Include design and infill standards for the City's "traditional"/historic neighborhoods that maintain the fabric of said neighborhoods. (c) Provide regulations that buffer low density residential uses/areas from higher density multiple-family,commercial and industrial uses/areas. (d) Recommend changes to other Oshkosh code/ordinances as they relate to the overlay district. Part II-Zoning Ordinance Rewrite It is the City's overall or longer-term desire that a new zoning ordinance, that moves away from the existing conventional Euclidean zoning ordinance to a combination of Euclidean and form based code sometimes referred to as a"smart code". This hybrid code should place greater emphasis on development form and performance with less concern over the strict division of land uses and specific dimensional regulation based City of Oshkosh Page 4 of 8 RFP Zoning Ordinance Rewrite solely on district designation. The desire is to move away from the inherent issues that exist with the "one size fits all" concept of Euclidean style district regulations. The rewritten code needs to accomplish the following objectives: (a) Develop a hybrid zoning code using the best of Euclidean and form-based principals to regulate uses and associated items such as signage,parking, etc. based on function and performance as well as location/district. This new code should minimize the creation of nonconformity where possible/practical. (b) Include a zoning map which links an identifiable "zoning" area for all property (private and public) with the text of the rewritten zoning code. (c) Include regulation and standards typically regulated by zoning law such as nonconformity, code administration, process identification, telecommunication and alternative energy equipment, noise, lighting, etc. (d) Develop mixed-use regulations for both the existing built areas and the less developed growth areas at the urban edge. (e) Develop specific"University Campus"code section that incorporates specialized performance standards for institutional, commercial and residential uses in and around the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh. (f) Develop specific regulations that protect and enhance the city's gateway corridors and shorelines/water frontages. (g) Provide regulations that"buffer"/protect low density residential uses/areas from higher density multiple-family,commercial and industrial uses/areas. (h) Promote development patterns that support multiple transportation modes including mass transit, bicycling and walking. (i) Provide for and promote a sustainable built and natural environment. (j) Ensure a smooth interface between the hybrid code and other codes/ordinances such as Wisconsin State Statues, Oshkosh Municipal Code, State Building and Housing codes, DNR/FEMA Floodplain Regulations,etc. (k) Create a document that is logically organized, easily understandable and "user friendly"through the use of common language and the inclusion of graphics, charts and tables that illustrate regulations. 4) ANTICIPATED TASKS AND SERVICES The successful respondent is expected to perform many tasks for development of the Overlay District including, but not limited to the following: Part I-Overlay District (a) Determine a boundary associated with the overlay zoning district by analyzing the building/housing stock to determine areas of specific design and development characteristics. (b) Develop a public participation plan that includes disseminating information to and receiving input from elected and appointed officials, city staff,neighborhood property owners/residents and special interest groups such as NeighborWorks Oshkosh, Habitat for Humanity,neighborhood associations, and the Winnebago Rental Association. City of Oshkosh Page 5 of 8 RFP Zoning Ordinance Rewrite (c) Develop an overlay zoning district that can be instituted immediately with the current zoning ordinance and would also be incorporated into the full zoning ordinance rewrite included in Part II of the project. (d) Provide professional assistance to City staff when conducting a public hearing on the draft overlay district, For the Part II-Zoning Ordinance Rewrite work, the successful respondent will be expected to perform the following tasks: Part II-Zoning Ordinance Rewrite (a) Review and evaluate Oshkosh's current zoning ordinance and provide an analysis of its strengths and weaknesses based on the consultant's review of best land use practices and include a recommendation of items that can be integrated into the rewritten code. (b) Propose an approach to integrate form-based components within the current Euclidean code to minimize nonconformity and promote easy transition from the existing to the new/rewritten Ordinance. (c) Develop a public participation plan that includes disseminating information to and receiving input from elected and appointed officials, city boards and committees, city staff, special interest groups and the general public. (d) Suggest process improvements necessary to ensure that the new/rewritten Ordinance promotes an efficient and effective development review process. (e) Develop a preliminary draft of the proposed zoning ordinance along with a summary/annotated outline of the changes from the existing zoning code to the new/rewritten code. (f) Attend and provide professional assistance to City staff when conducting a public hearing on the new/rewritten Ordinance. (g) Refine/amend the draft zoning ordinance based on input before and at the public hearing in order to finalize and deliver a final draft of the new/rewritten Ordinance to the city in electronic and hard copy formats. (h) Attend and provide professional assistance to City staff when bringing the draft zoning ordinance through the Plan Commission and Common Council approvaUadoption process. (i) Provide training to city staff to administer the new/rewritten Ordinance. 5) RFP REQUIREMENTS Consultants are asked to respond to this RFP by developing a proposal to meet the work associated Part I anticipated tasks and services and to provide a proposal to meet the anticipated tasks and services associated with and budgeted for Part II- Zoning Ordinance Rewrite.

Among the specific issues being addressed in the new code are: • ensuring a better"fit" between zoning code regulations and on-the-ground conditions in Wauwatosa's traditional neighborhood areas; • promoting high-quality, connected,walkable, mixed-use environments in village and neighborhood centers and in urban edge areas; • providing multi-modal transportation options; • accommodating high-quality rehabilitation, reuse and rein-vestment throughout out the city; and • promoting sustainable development practices. The new ordinance is expected to be adopted in late 2012. LAKOTA cduncan associates CITY OF OSHKOSH,\W-ISCONSIN I '5 O`.'C.RL._■ DISTRICT CND TONING-OYDI!\ NCE REO.-R,T E RFP Unified Development Ordinance-Lake County, Illinois (Duncan) For Lake County, a rapidly-growing collar county in the Chicago metro area,Duncan Associates drafted a new Unified Development Ordinance that implemented the county's newly-adopted Regional Framework Plan. The UDO consolidated zoning, subdivision, sign, mobile home park and recreational vehicle park regulations into one user-friendly document with many illustrations and (user-guide) commentaries.The county's development review procedures were modified to accommodate additional public input on certain development matters. Additional design controls were also added to the new UDO to help ensure that future development practices are consistent with the county's high expectations for development quality. The new unified ordinance also continues the county's strong tradition of natural resource protection; encourages affordable housing and infill development;and successfully integrates the county's long-standing performance-based zoning approach with the enhanced predictability of more conventional zoning controls. Zoning Ordinance- Chicago, Illinois (Duncan) Duncan Associates served as prime contractor and project manager for the City of Chicago's zoning ,#, ordinance rewrite,the first comprehensive overhaul ,,;,�. - of the ordinance in 47 years. The new ordinance, °° ,, which was adopted in 2004,places strong emphasis 4- - 4:, i,. 4 on conserving the physical character of Chicago's - _- i = cherished residential neighborhoods. Among its many new features are provisions designed to - encourage walkable urban and sustainable ., ` a development; stimulate redevelopment of underutilized commercial corridors;promote preservation of the city's best pedestrian-oriented shopping streets; establish transparent,predictable review procedures and prevent erosion of the city's industrial and employment base (by preventing encroachment of residential and other non-manufacturing uses). Zoning and Development Regulations - Kansas City, Missouri (Duncan) Duncan Associates completed a comprehensive } overhaul of the Kansas City's zoning and subdivision regulations in 2008.

R.:•p SECTION 4: P=ROJECT APPROACH AND WORK PLAN The City of Oshkosh,Wisconsin is seeking a qualified consultant to assist with the preparation of an Overlay District and Zoning Ordinance Rewrite. Our understanding of the assignment is that the consultant chosen to assist the City will need to take a lead role in accomplishing the following work: • implementing relevant goals and policies of the 2005 Cite of Oshkosh Comprehensive Plan, which identifies land use, development and implementation-related actions that should be taken to help advance the City's collective planning vision; • supporting the goals and polices of other related plans,including the City's Capital Improvements Plan,the 1998 Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation Plan, the 2000 Downtown Action Plan and the Universio of Wisconsin-Oshkosh's Campus Master Plan and the soon to be adopted Cite Sustainabilig Plan. • Adopting an Overlay District that promotes higher quality and compatible infill development that strengthens the fabric of Oshkosh's historic neighborhoods. • prepare new and amended zoning code provisions as necessary to ensure consistency with land use, development, and other City goals,including those of relevant neighborhoods and other special areas; • identify and eliminate inconsistencies and redundancies among existing City regulations; • amend the zoning code to better integrate and reference other land use and development-related codes and ordinances; • ensure that the code is consistent with state and federal law; • prepare development regulations (substantive standards and procedures) that are illustrated and as easy to use, administer and enforce as possible; and el page header ou� 0 prominent headings ..:... ..... :.:.'. consistent numbering. -,r -- indented paragraphs -, =. 0 commen tart es C 0°N. generous use of i•:hile space 4 page numbers d printing date LAKOTA d cart associates CITY OF OSHKOSH,WISCONSIN I 18 OVERLA\ DISTRICT<_ND ZONING ORDINANCE REROUTE CEO • promote greater use of sustainable development practices through the removal of barriers and the provision of development (substantive and procedural) incentives. The City has identified a number of specific issues to be addressed in the Overlay District and new Zoning Ordinance, and our firms expect that others will emerge as both codes are being prepared and reviewed. Some of the key issues identified in the request for proposals include: • ensuring a better"fit" between zoning code regulations and on-the-ground conditions in Oshkosh's traditional neighborhood areas; • promoting high-quality, connected,walkable, mixed-use environments in City and neighborhood centers and in urban edge areas; • providing multi-modal transportation options and a well-designed street network that supports orderly growth and development; • accommodating quality infill development in historic districts where an emphasis on high-quality rehabilitation, reuse and reinvestment throughout such area is also expected; and • addressing priority action items from the Comprehensive Plan's"Implementation Chapter" and implementation actions from other plans The City expects that the new zoning code emerge through a transparent and participatory process that involves property owners, neighborhood, environmental and other interests. The approach should not be to re-do the comprehensive planning process,but rather to ensure that people know about the project, have an opportunity to weigh in at various points of the process and to hone in on issues of importance to them. APPROACH Our time-tested approach to tackling these types of assignments is to: • understand the intrinsic design and architectural qualities of the City's historic districts to determine appropriate infill development standards. The standards should align with the City's already established preservation and design goals. • define the key issues and existing code deficiencies,based on existing plans and policy documents, in- depth listening sessions with local stakeholders and our own independent observations; • assess the strengths and weaknesses of the City's existing regulations in dealing with those issues and concerns; • propose—in conceptual terms—changes that will effectively deal with identified issues; • get buy-in on the conceptual recommendations; • prepare a new Overlay District and amended/new zoning code provisions; LAKOTA cduttcaf associates CITY OF OSHKOSH,WISCONSIN 19 O\.'ERI-,_S,DISTRICT AND ZONING 0S'.DINPJ\CE RE„-RITE I-T • test and ground-truth any new proposed design and zoning standards to ensure proper calibration for the City of Oshkosh; • conduct meetings or workshops to inform the public and receive feedback on proposed drafts; • prepare revised drafts; and • assist with the public hearing and adoption process. As a Team that conducts planning and preservation activities and focuses on zoning and development regulations,we are very familiar with zoning codes and the wide array of planning and regulatory approaches that are being used in jurisdictions _ throughout the U.S. We know too that there is a wide spectrum of f regulatory tolerance among communities. Some desire a tightly = _ controlled regulatory environment,while others prefer minimal J - roadblocks to growth and (re)development,preferring to rely more — on carrots than sticks. Based on our collective experience,we can - _,. " identify those approaches or techniques that best address •�t _ Oshkosh's unique values and expectations. _ k�_ Our approach will stress on-going and meaningful interaction with ` ,wt local participants and structured independent work by members of , / our team. Two primary objectives guide our work in all of our assignments. First,proposed strategies need to set adopted policies,visions and guidelines into motion. Second, any new proposed regulations should be easy to use, understand and administer. We help our clients accomplish these objectives by preparing regulations that are modern,user-friendly,illustrated documents that address substantive locally defined issues. In Oshkosh,we will build a solid foundation for the new Overlay and Zoning Ordinance by thoroughly analyzing existing plans, regulations and on-the-ground conditions. We anticipate working closely with city staff, boards and commissions, and other local t,_,.._n,_.„‘•,,,,, a,,. leaders. Our Team has the experience required to provide common _... • % sense solutions to identified, design,preservation, sustainability, development and land use issues. Our mission will be to explore with city staff and officials possible approaches to dealing with issues identified during the process and during our early public = ' involvement sessions. .-8' We view it as our responsibility to help citizens and local decision- 1 ` makers understand the upside and downside of various ,._; implementation alternatives and then help to craft needed _ regulations and guidelines in response to choices made by local policy makers. We would also draw upon our experience in other communities to develop zoning and land development provisions = that work for the Cite of Oshkosh. _ f(g,;e',,, iRt C„'1%(1,,,;!i,ft.,,-d1('5 e,/,,,c,-;.0r, K,,,,,,, Development regulations should be understandable to everyone C-'C),Zo:;;p ai,,,'I)wn:ion;i. i Col'(, who needs to use them.

The new zoning code will need to include tables, charts and graphics to illustrate key concepts and standards. It also needs to be written in plain English. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Our Team will work closely with the City of Oshkosh,its commissions and other stakeholders throughout the project process to solicit and gather ideas and input so that the final Overlay District and Zoning Ordinance reflects a strong consensus of the community. Our Team understands that a community's stakeholder level of interest and participation in a planning process can vary significantly. Therefore, our Team's collective history and experience of working on similar assignments tells us that appropriate means and venues for community interaction, outreach, and feedback must be identified early on before the planning process begins. In other words, a carefully designed community engagement process will be developed in close collaboration with the City and key stakeholders before the project process starts in earnest. T_ C,Gr_ift At a minimum, however, our Team approach will include: area/site tour(s), stakeholder focus groups,participatory ` workshop(s), electronic media outreach, City staff and commission reviews, and various presentations. Other successful outreach activities that can be considered include a project website formatted for community feedback and interaction and the use of Social Media ;° to publicize workshops and hearings. Our standard approach to assignments such as this is to forge a close working relationship with local staff. We know from experience and reputation that staff brings a wealth of knowledge to this project that must not be underestimated or brought to bear too late in the process. While we recognize that the project deliverables will be the responsibility of our team,we also know that a strong staff-consultant team relationship will also be important to ensure enough boots on the ground to get the job done...on time and on budget. WORK PLAN The following Project Work Plan describes in greater detail the process to be undertaken to prepare both the Overlay District and Zoning Ordinance Rewrite, incorporating the specific objectives stated within the RFP document. The two-part work plan calls for completion of the Phase 1 (Overlay District) work within 6 months. The estimated timeline for Phase 2 (Zoning Ordinance update) calls for completion within approximately 15 months. The project Work Plan for either phase can be adjusted to meet local needs and priorities. It can, for example, be modified to include optional tasks, such as additional meetings or an interactive Internet version of the final Overlay and Zoning Ordinance documents. It can also be adjusted to address budget or time constraints identified by the City.
