THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
On May 28, 2026 the Planning & Zoning Commission held a public hearing on the Carhenge Redevelopment Project at 700 W Pacific Avenue, town property within the Accommodations 2 zone, presented as a Conceptual Planned Unit Development by Design Workshop and Olson Kundig. The concept would replace the existing 288‑space Carhenge surface lot with a mixed‑use development of roughly 220–250 residential units plus around 10,000 sq ft of commercial space, while relocating most of the existing intercept parking to the proposed Shandoka garage PUD.
P&Z continued the hearing to July 23, 2026 and directed the applicant to consider reductions in site coverage, maximum floor area and height, and to provide preliminary floodplain and traffic studies, reflecting concerns documented by neighborhood coalition counsel about parking adequacy, traffic at key intersections, and wildfire evacuation. No design or construction vendor has been selected beyond the planning team, and the town still needs updated traffic impact analysis, parking demand analysis, legal/platted use reviews, and financial and phasing strategies to support future development and procurement decisions.
P&Z’s continuation motion explicitly requested reductions in site coverage and height and called for preliminary floodplain and traffic studies; neighborhood counsel argues the 288 displaced Carhenge spaces are already insufficient and that project-specific 2026 traffic modeling under peak/school/event conditions is needed, creating an opening for independent engineering and analysis vendors.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
