What the buyer needs

AI summary

The City of Rialto seeks proposals from qualified consultants to review and update its nexus study and development impact fees. The selected vendor will also complete a focused user fee study to better align citywide fees with cost-recovery and services provided, with work performed offsite. Only onshore USA organizations are eligible to bid, and all questions must be submitted no later than November 23, 2026. Proposers must submit a separate PDF Technical Proposal, Cost Proposal, and required forms electronically through PlanetBids by December 9, 2026, at 4:00 P.M. PST. An Evaluation Committee will score responsive proposals on criteria including understanding of the City's needs (20 points) and approach in delivering services (35 points), and may request presentations from shortlisted firms. Price is not an evaluation criterion, as the City will use the selected firm's cost proposal as the basis for contract negotiations.
