REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) - Maryvine Street Park Concepts - Southwest Lake Forest Project Area 3

The City of Lake Forest is seeking input from qualified planning, landscape architecture, and related consulting firms regarding potential park and public-realm improvements along Maryvine Street. The city is looking for conceptual design ideas, planning-level cost ranges, and public outreach strategies to support future planning and implementation. The project aims to enhance the community use of the corridor, which currently functions as a residential cut-through with limited lighting and no designated public space. The city has identified three potential options for the project: maintaining the existing street configuration, creating a flex-park concept, and converting the street into a dedicated passive park. Respondents are encouraged to provide feedback, concepts, and planning-level cost estimates for each option. • The city is looking for conceptual design ideas that balance safety, flexibility, and neighborhood compatibility. • The project requires planning-level cost estimates for design, construction, and maintenance. • Public outreach strategies are needed to engage residents and stakeholders in the planning process. • The city is interested in identifying key assumptions, major cost drivers, risks, and implementation considerations for each option. • Respondents are encouraged to provide sample projects, team experience, and firm qualifications to support their submissions.
