Regulatory Audit and Amendments to Advance Housing Production Services

Clear Creek County in Georgetown, Colorado is seeking a consultant to perform a regulatory audit and draft amendments to advance housing production. The county needs to address barriers in its current development codes by conducting a comprehensive review of zoning and subdivision regulation permitting procedures. This initiative aims to align local regulations with evolving state housing policies and establish clear administrative procedures and review timelines. The scope of work requires benchmarking local codes against peer jurisdictions with effective pro-housing policies. The selected consultant must conduct two rounds of stakeholder outreach involving developers, real estate professionals, the housing authority, local boards, and residents to identify barriers, red flags, and potential community pushback. Following the initial outreach, the consultant must prepare a summary report containing a gap analysis and outreach results. The project also covers drafting regulatory amendments in coordination with county staff and legal counsel for internal review. The consultant must present these draft amendments during a planning commission work session prior to public hearings and recommendations. After the second round of stakeholder outreach, the consultant must revise the draft amendments based on the feedback received. Eligible bidders must be located onshore within the United States. The county requires the performance of the work to be conducted onsite in Georgetown, Colorado. Bidders must submit their proposals digitally via email or through the designated online portal, and the county is currently seeking budget proposals to determine the project cost.
