Public Updates

Metropolitan's Workforce Development Manager presented a regional branding campaign on workforce development built with the Member Agency Workforce Development Working Group. The item was informational, and the committee only received an update. The next quarterly update was scheduled for June 24, 2026, which gives a vendor a narrow window to shape outreach, messaging, or campaign support if the program expands.

Public Updates

The priorities plan calls for a reference library for exterior improvements that would include contractors familiar with historic construction methods, preservation architects, and accountants familiar with federal tax credit projects. It also calls for outreach to local construction contractors about when a Certificate of Appropriateness is required. This is an actionable relationship-building lead, but not yet a bid. The city is shaping a resource network and may need future lists, content, or advisory support.

Public Updates

The priorities plan calls for more educational outreach to real estate professionals, prospective buyers, lenders, and title companies about historic districts, code requirements, and incentives. Ideas include a flyer, brochure, map, checklist, and regular email outreach tied to MLS listings in the West End Historic District and Normal Hill Heritage Overlay Zone. This is a concrete communications and education need, not a procurement award. The city also wants a commission member to monitor MLS listings monthly.
