26 Shank Painter Road Housing Development

The Town of Provincetown ("Town"), through its Chief Procurement Officer, is seeking proposals from qualified developers for the creation of mixed-income ownership housing on two adjacent town-owned parcels located at 26 Shank Painter Road and 15 Browne Street in Provincetown. The parcels total approximately 0.4 acres combined.

The Town intends to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement, and a Land Development Agreement ("LDA") with restrictions as defined in this RFP, with the selected developer to convey the property through a lottery to eligible buyers conducted by the Town. The developer will be responsible for the design, construction, and development of the units on the property. The Town would like to see a mix of affordability levels, ranging from 80% AMI to 200% AMI.

The Town is seeking a developer to build at least twenty-four (24), but ideally additional residential units as the site may allow and as permitted under the Zoning Bylaw. The minimum number of units (24) is based on a community engagement process conducted in 2019 and should be considered a base number with preferred consideration for additional residential units.

The Town would prefer to see a mix of studios and one-bedroom units, as well as some two-bedroom units.

The development will be subject to a Land Development Agreement (See example in Attachment D) in form that is acceptable to the Town.

The Town is looking for a range of affordability levels from 80% AMI up to 200% AMI, but would consider proposals that include a wider income span to the extent feasible.

The development's architecture should reflect and be compatible with the existing traditional architecture and style of the Provincetown community.

The Town is looking for proposals that include building and site designs that reduce the residents' energy, water usage and cost, and limit the project's environmental impact.

The Town will be responsible for administering and conducting the lottery for the affordable homeownership units, including establishing lottery procedures, reviewing applicant eligibility, and selecting eligible applicants in accordance with applicable requirements.
