TITLE:

Old Courthouse Redevelopment RFP Update

DESIRED OUTCOME:

Staff will be providing an update on the RFP for the Old Courthouse Redevelopment.

Executive Summary:

In January 2024, Flagstaff City Council supported the Downtown Action and Vision Plan completed by the Flagstaff Downtown Business Association in partnership with the City, Coconino County and Mountain Line. The plan identified several catalytic sites, including the entire block housing the Old Courthouse site and called for the City to put out a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the redevelopment of the Old Courthouse site. City staff is preparing an RFP for the city-owned parcels and would like to provide an update to Council on what will be included in the RFP and proposed solicitation timeline as an update and to seek feedback before finalizing the proposal.

Information:

The parcels that would be included in the Request for Proposals include:

APN 100-21-009A which is approximately 3,225 feet
APN 100-21-011 which is approximately 10,018 feet
APN 100-21-009B which is approximately 6,825
APN 100-21-001B which is approximately 10,890

This is a total area of 30,958 square feet or .71 acres. There is an alley separating 100-21-001B from the other three parcels which are adjacent to each other.

These properties were previously used as the former courthouse, and as parking for the courthouse and the public.

On the remainder of the block are four privately owned parcels.

The City of Flagstaff owned lots are currently public parking managed by ParkFlag and serving the downtown and the new courthouse.
