Description

The City of Council Bluffs is inviting proposals for the purchase and development of an approximate 2.22 acre parcel of land in the Lake Manawa Neighborhood. The property, located at the southeast corner of Mohawk Street and Comanche Street, is intended for the development of a two-family attached housing project consisting of approximately 22-24 units. This opportunity is being managed by the city's Community Development Department, which is seeking developers interested in contributing to the area's residential growth. It is the intention of the City to keep this RFP open until all lots are sold. Therefore, it is not required for a bidder to bid on all 22-24 lots. Additionally, since this is an open RFP, this means the City will be able to view responses as they are submitted in IonWave. The RFP is set to tentatively close on January 29, 2026. However, if qualified bid(s) are submitted prior to that date, the RFP may close earlier. Conversely, if not all lots are bid on by said date, the RFP close date may be extended. To align with the city's vision, the development should focus on creating a two-family residential environment. This area should feature low-density housing, residential attached units, establishing a westerly boundary within the overall 93 acre site that complements future phases of the development. The site it part of land that has been designated as the east Manawa Drive Residential Urban Renewal Area and has been prioritized for economic and housing development.
