Developers with proven experience in commercial, residential or mixed-use development are invited to submit sufficient information regarding their development expertise (including approaches to development, financial capability and other pertinent information) that will enable the City to consider the selection of a developer for this important redevelopment opportunity. This RFQ is in keeping with the goals and objectives of the City’s Comprehensive Plan Update of 2005. Responses to this RFQ are due on May 30, 2009 at 5:00 p.m. local time to the following address: Mr. Lehman Walker, Director University City Department of Community Development 6801 Delmar Boulevard University City, MO 63130 Late responses will be returned unopened. Ten copies of your statement of qualifications are required. Following a review of written proposals, the City may invite selected teams to make an oral presentation and to present the details of their qualifications. 1 THE OPPORTUNITY The City of University City, a diverse suburb of the City of St. Louis, is seeking an innovative public/private partnership to design and implement a new development on five contiguous parcels on one of University City’s major commercial corridors – Olive Boulevard. The City and its land development commissions own the parcels within the project area. The project site is in the north-central portion of University City, in the 7500 block of Olive Boulevard. It is within walking distance of several neighborhoods, has excellent access to Interstate 170 and is located just minutes away from downtown St. Louis, Lambert International Airport, the nationally designated “Great Places in America” Delmar Loop, Washington University-St. Louis, downtown Clayton, Forest Park and many other amenities. Appendix A contains additional information about University City. The physical and economic redevelopment of Olive Boulevard is the City’s highest priority. Redevelopment of the project site is a key step in the attainment of the long-term vision for the Olive Boulevard corridor. It will augment several planned and in-progress infrastructure and land use projects that are improving the physical appearance of the corridor. For example, streetscape improvements (streetscaping, sidewalks and lighting) and Olive Boulevard Design Guidelines are two such projects that will assist with the Olive Boulevard redevelopment. THE SITE The project site is located east of the intersection of Olive Boulevard and North and South Road. The site is comprised of five parcels and approximately 2 acres. The parcels have been cleared of buildings, graded and are ready for development. Table 1 depicts relevant property information from the St. Louis County Assessor and Map 1 depicts the project site.

Land use follows zoning and is entirely commercial. Businesses currently located in the area include two thrift stores, an automobile repair shop, an attorney’s office, and a grocer. PROJECT OBJECTIVES The City’s overall goal for the project site is to provide a new mixed-use development for the community. The mix of uses desired includes commercial, office, restaurant, and other market- driven uses. The community has expressed a desire for a satellite library, coffee shop, bookstore, sit-down family dining, shoe repair, ice cream shoppe, office, residential or medical building for the area. Strip mall development is discouraged. The project must provide significant benefits to the City, including job creation and sales tax generation. It should be a destination-oriented project that will attract a large number of people both day and night. The redevelopment project is expected to enhance and reinforce the overall vision for the Olive Boulevard corridor and will: 1. Provide quality redevelopment that is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan Update of 2005 and the Olive Boulevard Design Guidelines to improve the appearance of Olive Boulevard. 2. Produce a long-lasting development that projects a positive community image, increases the value of surrounding property, adds to the public convenience, enlarges opportunities for pursuing an urban lifestyle, and enhances community resources. 3. Eliminate uses that do not contribute to the overall social and economic well- being of Olive Boulevard and the adjacent neighborhoods. Changes to the zoning designation and parcels consolidation will be considered to achieve this vision. SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS Twelve (12) copies and one (1) electronic copy of the response must be submitted. Responses must include the following information: A. Team Qualifications 1. Provide the name, address, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses of the development team. Identify the principal individual(s) within the development team authorized to serve as the spokesperson for the team. 2.

    Draft Environmental Impact Statement Volume I Summary Chapters 1-6 St. Louis County, Missouri April 2013 FHWA-MO-EIS-13-01-D South County Connector Draft Environmental Impact Statement Summary St. Louis County, Missouri (County), in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), has completed this Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for a proposed transportation improvement project, referred to as the South County Connector. The project location map is depicted in Figure 1. This EIS describes existing problems in the project area, discusses development of alternatives, examines potential impacts of the alternatives considered, and identifies potential mitigation measures for unavoidable impacts. A preferred alternative is the alternative that best meets the project purpose and need, balances the benefits and impacts of the project, and is responsive to public and agency comments. Therefore, the final selection of an alternative will not be made until after considering comments from other federal, state and local agencies and the public as a part of the Draft EIS reviews and public hearing process. The preferred alternative will be presented in the Final EIS. PROJECT HISTORY A plan for an improved connection from south St. Louis County to central St. Louis County has existed since the late 1950s. The original concept was for a freeway “inner belt expressway” to provide better north-south access through the St. Louis suburbs. This freeway concept resulted in Interstate 170, north of Interstate 64/U.S. Route 40. Originally, Interstate 170 was proposed to continue south into the southern part of St. Louis County to provide improved access between Interstates 44, 55, and 64.
