ED22-01 - Erie Downtown Infrastructure Improvements Design

The Town recently executed a municipal bond issuance to finance various improvements in the Downtown District identified by RockSol Consulting Group in April of 2020 (RockSol’s Old Town Erie Infrastructure Improvements Recommendations). The Town conducted an extensive community engagement campaign in July 2021 to receive input from the residents on which projects should be pursued, and to what scale. The projects selected by the residents represent the community’s desire to beautify and improve the Downtown area, and ensure adequate infrastructure is provided to support additional new development and redevelopment in this area. The projects should align with the vision outlined in the December 2016 Downtown Redevelopment Framework Plan and RockSol’s  Old Town Erie Infrastructure Improvements Recommendations from April 2020.


The Town encourages capable and qualified groups to submit proposals for the Erie Downtown Infrastructure Improvements Design Request for Proposal (RFP). Groups should submit a proposal that encompasses all projects outlined in the scope of work that align with the expertise of that organization.
