26 Shank Painter Road Housing Development

The Town of Provincetown is seeking proposals from qualified developers for the design, permitting, financing, and construction of mixed-income ownership housing on two town-owned parcels located at 26 Shank Painter Road and 15 Browne Street. The project requires the development of at least 24 residential units, with a preference for additional units as permitted by zoning. The Town aims for a mix of affordability levels serving households earning between 80% and 200% of the Area Median Income (AMI), with a specific preference for the 80% to 150% range and local preference. Proposals must comply with the Shank Painter Road Form-Based Code Zoning District, Tier 1, and the Town encourages permitting through M.G.L. Chapter 40B. Preference will be given to designs that meet LEED, Passive House, or other high energy efficiency and green design standards to reduce resident costs and resource usage. Qualified proposers must demonstrate at least five years of housing development experience, a successful track record of at least two similar projects, and provide three third-party references, including at least one affordable housing project. Proposals are subject to a pass/fail threshold based on minimum criteria and submission requirements before being scored on a 35-point scale covering factors such as financial feasibility, building design, and developer capacity. The Town will select the most advantageous proposal based on community needs rather than solely on the highest score or price. All proposals must be submitted via the online supplier portal by November 30, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. The selected developer will be responsible for all due diligence, including geotechnical and wetlands inspections, as well as all insurance, operating costs, and applicable taxes.
