DESCRIPTION
The government authority in Bentonville, Arkansas, seeks a qualified vendor to develop a comprehensive 10-year parks and recreation master plan. The work will include a GIS-based asset inventory documenting ownership, location, acreage, age, physical condition, safety, estimated remaining useful life, renovation or replacement priority, planning-level replacement cost, and photographic documentation for each asset.
The selected provider will conduct inclusive public engagement through workshops, focus groups, pop-up events, stakeholder meetings, digital engagement, and other methods designed to reach a broad cross-section of the community. The project will also evaluate recreation programs and services, including demand, duplication, service gaps, capacity constraints, and opportunities, as well as potential partnerships with schools, nonprofit organizations, private entities, and regional agencies.
The assessment will cover existing parks, trails, recreation centers, sports complexes, aquatic facilities, and specialized amenities. The resulting plan must include a prioritized capital improvement project list organized into short-term, midterm, and long-term phases covering years 1–3, 4–6, and 7–10. Questions must be submitted by August 31, 2026.
