February 14, 2003: The City of Temple Terrace Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) received fourteen (14) responses to its request for qualification statements (RFQs) from Town Planning firms interested in conducting our Public Charrette and creating the Master Plan for our Downtown area. Grant Rimbey has said it is a remarkable feat for a city of our size to attract such highly qualified firms; especially considering that seven of them are nationally known city planners. CRA Director Matt Shannon concurred with Grant’s assessment. Here’s the list, with available hyperlinks:
1. Canin Associates
2. Civic Design Associates
3. Cooper, Robertson & Partners
4. Dover, Kohl & Partners
5. Duany Plater-Zyberk & Company
6. HOK Planning Group
7. LandDesign, Inc.
8. RMPK Group, Inc.
9. RTKL Associates, Inc.
10. Siemon & Larsen, P.A.
11. Torti Gallas and Partners – CHK, Inc.
12. Urban Design Associates
13. Wallace, Roberts & Todd, LLC
14. Wilson Miller / Looney Ricks Kiss Architects
City Manager Kim Leinbach and our CRA Director are currently involved in the process of assembling the “Town Planner Selection Committee” to make a short-list of final candidates. Many of us are looking forward to the crucial acquisition of the final SE properties concomitant with the Designer/Planner selection process.
