City of Appleton Valley Transit Joint Development Request for Expressions of Interest and Qualifications

The City of Appleton, through its Department of Valley Transit, is seeking qualified developers to collaborate on a significant downtown project that combines transportation infrastructure with residential development. The project involves constructing a transit center featuring 14 bus bays at the current Valley Transit hub located at 100 E. Washington Street, with the opportunity to build multi-family housing above the transit facility. The development site is strategically positioned in the heart of downtown Appleton and allows for structures up to 200 feet in height, providing ample space for a mixed-use complex that integrates transit services with residential living. The initiative aims to foster urban revitalization and improve transit accessibility while creating new housing options. Interested developers are invited to respond to the Request for Expressions of Interest and Qualifications (RFEI VT24-001), which was posted on April 24, 2024, with a deadline for responses set for June 21, 2024. The process is designed to identify capable and interested parties for a subsequent, more detailed Request for Proposal phase. The project is managed by Valley Transit, a division of the City of Appleton, and is part of broader efforts to enhance downtown infrastructure and community development. For further details or to submit inquiries, interested parties can contact Debra Ebben via email or phone.
