Scope of Services

Sebastian, Florida
Dear Ms. Frazier:
Based upon our conversations, GAI Community Solutions Group ("GAI" or "CSG")
offers this Proposal for a Sustainable Economic Redevelopment Plan to the City
of Sebastian ("Client") for the existing Riverfront Community Redevelopment
Area (CRA). Work will be performed in accordance with our Continuing
Professional Planning and Landscape Architecture Consulting Services contract
dated January 25, 2018.
Project Understanding
Originally established in 1995, the Riverfront CRA has grown over time with its
current size encompassing over 800 acres of which a little more than half is
designated "conservation" due to overlapping the Indian River. The Riverfront
CRA redevelopment plan was last updated in 2010.
CSG understands that the Client desires to create a sustainable redevelopment
strategic plan that promotes a diverse economy along the Riverfront urban core
while implementing resiliency planning from Florida coastal flooding and
hurricane impacts. As envisioned, the Sustainable Economic Redevelopment Plan
for the Riverfront CRA should incorporate economic development strategies that
assist the Client in defining markets, designing infrastructure projects that
address both growth and climate change, and capture the essence of the City of
Sebastian in a comprehensive, compatible design.
The basic structure of a Scope of Services and budget are detailed below
consistent with our understanding of the needs of the Client as they have been
described in our conversations.
