Redevelopment Counsel Services

The Township of Berkeley Heights, New Jersey, requires an offshore-ineligible USA organization to provide offsite redevelopment counsel services. The selected vendor must perform duties to facilitate municipal redevelopment projects, prepare Redevelopment Ordinances and Resolutions, review adoption proceedings, and deliver legal opinions, briefs, and advice as requested. Proposers must demonstrate a minimum of ten years of experience as Redevelopment Counsel. Applicants must mail or deliver an original and one signed copy of their complete technical proposal to Township Clerk Angela Lazzari by 10:00 A.M. on October 30, 2026. Submissions must include assigned staff qualifications, a past performance list, an Affirmative Action Statement, a Non-Collusion Affidavit, an Owner Disclosure Statement, an Affidavit of No Conflict of Interest, an Affidavit of Contribution Statement, and a completed RFQ checklist. Proposers seeking the cost-proposal contract must also present a New Jersey Business Registration Certificate before award. The Township evaluation committee will base awards on personnel qualifications, experience, reputation, training, resource availability, and cost reasonableness. One or more individuals or firms may be selected for a contract term running from January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2027.
