Request for Proposals (RFP 2021-01) – CNI Planning Partner Consulting Services
1. Background and Scope of Services. The MONTGOMERY HOUSING AUTHORITY (MHA) is
currently seeking proposals from qualified individuals and planning firms to become our Master Planning
Partner for the CNI planning process. The Planning Partner will lead the CNI planning process in conjunction
with our team at MHA and the subsequently procured Development Partner for the Paterson Court
redevelopment project. MHA is the lead applicant for the CNI Planning Grant, and the City of Montgomery
serves as Co-Applicant. The selected Contractor will perform CNI planning activities including: Assessing
the Existing Conditions, the Visioning Process, Neighborhood Plan Process, Housing Plan Process, People
Plan Process, and the Transformation Plan. The list of tasks and current planning schedule is attached to this
RFP as is the current organizational structure. MHA will only share their winning CNI application with the
Contractor that is selected to perform this work. Tasks may be modified based on the needs of the MHA, the
City of Montgomery, MHA’s chosen development partner and HUD.
1.1 Goals of Choice Neighborhoods Initiative. The Choice Neighborhoods Initiative bolsters community-
generated strategies to address struggling neighborhoods wherein there is distressed public or HUD-
assisted housing. The CNI program aims to transform these areas into neighborhoods of choice using a
comprehensive approach to neighborhood transformation that goes well beyond the normal scope of
standard affordable housing redevelopment. The CNI program supports organizations that work to
transform neighborhoods by not only revitalizing severely distressed public housing but also by
leveraging investments in well-functioning community programs and services, providing new investment
dollars where none exist currently, supporting high quality public schools and innovative education
programs such as high quality early learning programs and services, creatively leveraging existing public
assets, public transportation, and by working to improve access to jobs for all residents in the community
focus area. Additional and more detailed information about HUD’s 10-year history of progress under the
CNI program can be found at:
Choice Neighborhoods Implementation Grants | HUD.gov / U.S.
Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)
T
he Choice Neighborhoods Initiative is focused on three core goals:
(a) Housing: Transform distressed public and assisted housing into energy efficient, mixed-
income housing that is physically and financially viable over the long term
(b) People: Support positive outcomes for families who live in the target developments and the
surrounding neighborhood, particularly outcomes related to residents’ education, health a
nd
r
ecreation, safety, employment, and mobility
(c) Neighborhood: Transform distressed, high-poverty neighborhoods into viable, mixed-
income neighborhoods with access to well-functioning services, high quality public schools
and education programs, high quality early learning programs and services, public assets,
public transportation, and improved access to jobs.
1.2
Scope of Services. The selected Planning Partner will co-lead the CNI planning process in conjunction
with the team currently working on the CNI planning grant at the direction of the MHA. The target
neighborhood is historic Centennial Hill. The distressed public housing development is Paterson Court.
Additionally, two advisory boards will be created for this initiative. The first is the Centennial Hill
Advisory Board (CHAB), which will be composed of community leaders. The second is the Paterson
Innovators (PI), which is a group of the Paterson Court development resident leaders. The MHA team
will also create Neighborhood, Housing and People Committees and additional Task Forces as needed.
T
he Planning Partner will be involved in the following:
Assessing the Existing Conditions. Facilitating the Paterson Court meetings, identifying
community assets, interviewing service provider organizations, conducting the resident needs
assessment, and conducting the community needs assessment. In addition, the Planning Partner will

Form HUD-2530 must be completed and signed by all
principals applying to participate in HUD multifamily
housing projects, including those who have no
previous participation. The form must be signed and
filed by all principals and their affiliates who propose
participating in the HUD project. Use a separate form
for each role in the project unless there is an identity
of interest.
Principals include all individuals, joint ventures,
partnerships, corporations, trusts, non-profit
organizations, any other public or private entity that
will participate in the proposed project as a sponsor,
owner, prime contractor, turnkey developer,
managing agent, nursing home administrator or
operator, packager, or consultant. Architects and
attorneys who have any interest in the project other
than an arm’s length fee arrangement for professional
services are also considered principals by HUD.
In the case of partnerships, all general partners
regardless of their percentage interest and limited
partners having a 25 percent or more interest in the
partnership are considered principals. In the case of
public or private corporations or governmental
entities, principals include the president, vice
president, secretary, treasurer and all other executive
officers who are directly responsible to the board of
directors, or any equivalent governing body, as well
as all directors and each stockholder having a 10
percent or more interest in the corporation.
Affiliates are defined as any person or business
concern that directly or indirectly controls the policy
of a principal or has the power to do so. A holding or
parent corporation would be an example of an affiliate
if one of its subsidiaries is a principal.

affiliates must personally sign the certificate except in
the following situation. When a corporation is a
principal, all of its officers, directors, trustees and
stockholders with 10 percent or more of the common

the same record to report. The officer who is
authorized to sign for the corporation or agency will
list the names and title of those who elect not to sign.
However, any person who has a record of
participation in HUD projects that is separate from
that of his or her organization must report that activity
on this form and sign his or her name. The objective
is IXOO disclosure.
