Comprehensive Plan Service

The Village of Hampshire, Illinois, is seeking a consultant team to produce an actionable, data-driven, and visually compelling comprehensive plan. This plan will guide the village's growth, development, and preservation priorities while supporting decision-making by the village board, planning and zoning commission, business development commission, village staff, and residents. The agency needs to establish early governance clarity, reduce reactive decision-making, and strengthen edge-area planning coordination while maintaining full comprehensive planning integrity. The scope of work requires the development of a clear implementation framework and strategies for economic development, including retail positioning and business attraction. The selected consultant must identify priority growth areas that require accelerated planning attention before the full comprehensive plan is completed. Additionally, the project covers the creation of an economic development strategy, a community profile, an existing conditions report, a land use inventory, a zoning analysis, a community survey, and a housing plan. Eligibility is restricted to onshore organizations based in the United States. The agency allows the performance of the work to be conducted either onsite or offsite. The village is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget for this project, and no specific key dates or evaluation criteria are provided in the sourcing details.
