RFQ for Housing Division Projects

The City of Merced Housing Division is issuing a Request for Qualifications to compile a master list of pre‑qualified nonprofit housing developers for future federally‑funded affordable‑housing projects (CDBG, HOME, and related programs). Applicants must submit a cover sheet, statement of interest, project‑lead bios, up to three project samples, references, organization type, and CHDO status by the deadline. Evaluation will focus on past performance, capacity for federal projects, community outreach, technical expertise, and ability to meet HUD requirements. Inclusion on the list does not guarantee any award; it simply positions qualified firms for upcoming opportunities. • Pre‑qualification (not a specific construction contract) for future affordable‑housing projects. • Open to nonprofit housing developers; emphasis on HUD‑related experience and community engagement. • Submission deadline April 30, 2021 5 PM PDT; inquiries due by April 16, 2021 5 PM PDT.
