SCOPE OF WORK
Gifford Neighborhood
45th Street Streetscape Design Plans
Indian River County, Florida
Gifford is a predominantly African-American nt-1. rhood with a 2010 population of 5 , 875 .
Historically, the Gifford community has struggled with substandard housing, high
unemployment, a high poverty level, infrastructure deficiencies, a negative community image,
and a lack of economic development. To address those problems and other issues, the
County, in conjunction with Gifford organizations, community leaders, business owners, and
residents, developed the Gifford Neighborhood Plan. That plan, adopted by the Indian River
County Board of County Commissioners (BCC) in 2002 , identified neighborhood problems,
opportunities, goals and objectives, and established results-oriented actions to achieve the
plan' s identified objectives .
One of the main issues identified in the plan was the need to improve Martin Luther King
Boulevard (45th Street). That roadway is the Gifford community ' s "main street", an east-west
collector road corridor that traverses the heart of Gifford and provides access to a range of
institutional, commercial, and residential uses . As structured, the Gifford Neighborhood Plan
contains an innovative planning proposal for streetscape improvements along 45th Street to
improve Gifford ' s aesthetics and community image, and to promote economic development.
Although the county has set aside $200,OQO irl funds for 45th Street streetscape improvements,
those funds have not been expended to date because of the lack of community-based design
plans for the improvements.
This project involves community engagement and urban design work for a streetscape
improvement project along 45th Street in the unincorporated community of Gifford in Indian
River County, Florida. Working with county staff, the consultant will engage Gifford
Community residents and other stakeholders through public meetings and outreach activities .
Based on input received through that process, the consultant will develop bid ready design
plans for a streetscape improvement project along a segment of 45th Street in Gifford.
• Tasks
The following tasks are to be completed by county staff.
1 . Initiate procurement process to obtain the services of an urban design consultant
2 . Complete the procurement process and execute a contract with the selected urban
design consultant

county staff.
1 . Using county survey information, consultant will document existing right-of--way and
adjacent property conditions along 45th Street from 43rd Avenue to US
