The San Francisco Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo) seeks proposals to facilitate a community engagement process for Midtown Park Apartment residents to explore resident ownership and control models. The consultant will facilitate an inclusive conversation among Midtown tenants to develop a collective agreement on what they want for the future of Midtown, addressing issues such as affordability, ownership or resident control, tenure/inheritance, existing/new residents, and a timeline for the rehabilitation, development, and implementation of the ownership or resident-control model.

The selected consultant will also conduct a Property Conditions Assessment (PCA) to assess Midtown’s current condition, and identify current and future physical needs, including capital costs, deferred maintenance, and ongoing maintenance costs.

The final deliverable will be a report documenting the resident engagement process, informed by the PCA, and making recommendations for the future management of the Midtown Park Apartments, including a structure for resident control and/or ownership.
