Regular City Council Meeting Monday, July 25, 2016 Page 24 Nays: McGehee. Motion carried. c. Review Draft Request for Proposal (RFP) for the Comprehensive Plan Up- date, and Provide Input on Modifications to the Draft; and Direct Staff to Is- sue the Request for Proposals (PROJ0037) Interim Community Development Director Kari Collins introduced the latest draft RFP for consideration, following initial input from the City Council and Planning Commission, and incorporated into the draft for further guidance and direction to staff. Senior Planner Bryan Lloyd briefly summarized draft RFP (Attachment B). Public Engagement Section D, Pa�e 5 Mayor Roe asked that this section include a requirement and emphasis that con- sultants to show their previous public engagement efforts informing this update; and that past Roseville-specific public engagement processes include a model similar to that of the Park Master Plan process, in addition to those listed (e.g. Im- agine Roseville 2025). In other words, Mayor Roe asked that an emphasis be placed in that paragraph that this comprehensive plan update process be informed by previous public engagement of the consultant and successful models in Rose- ville. References Section 4, Pa�e 6 Mayor Roe questioned the need for specific references; but suggested it be noted that the consultant would be evaluated on their public engagements efforts in the past. Selection Criteria Section #, Pa�e 9 Mayor Roe asked that selection criteria include the consultant's experience with public engagement planning. In this section, Councilmember McGehee questioned the need to include the bul- let point: "Ability to work as a team with City Council, advisory commissions and committees, and staff." Councilmember McGehee also questioned the need to in- clude "Familiarity with Roseville," since that may preclude a proposer, while they could bring their own past experience and/or ideas to the table. Councilmember Willmus agreed with the comments of his colleagues so far with the exception of leaving in the criteria for "Familiarity with Roseville." Coun- cilmember Willmus stated he wasn't interested in out-of-state consultants, opining the geographic locale and familiarity was important. Mayor Roe agreed with a familiarity at least with the Twin Cities area or Rose- ville-type communities (e.g. Richfield, MN) was important.
