Beautification project request for qualifications draws no responses
The FY20 beautification project request for qualifications, released in March 2021, received no responses. Two potential applicants told staff they were unsure whether it was a reimbursement or a matching grant, and one cited the working capital needed until reimbursement. The board discussed progressive payments and a reissue; staff reported in June that the reissued request had been downloaded 18 times, and in August that the second attempt had also drawn no applications.[1][2][3][4]
What the sources say
- ✓ Verified
On May 11, 2021 staff reported "no responses were received in response to the RFQ"; one potential applicant was confused over "if the RFQ allowed for reimbursement or if it would be a matching grant," and another "expressed concerns over the working capital needed to fund the project until reimbursement." In August staff said "the lack of working capital appeared to still be a barrier for local artists." [2][4]
