Subject: Amendment #2: Increase in Contract Value for General Plan Update and Digital User Platform
Vendor Name: WSP USA, Inc.
Munis Vendor Number: 2960
ITEM AND ISSUE:
The Planning and Land Use Department respectfully requests your review and approval of Amendment #2 to Contract
3250006 with WSP USA, Inc. for the General Plan update and creation of a digital user platform. Amendment #2
includes the following: 1) changes to the Scope of Work (“SOW”); and 2) increases the total compensation by
$649,125.00 inclusive of Gross Receipts Tax (“GRT”), for a total compensation of $2,691,220.56, inclusive of GRT.
CONTRACT NUMBER:
The FY24 Munis contract number is 3250006.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY:
On May 31, 2024, the Governing Body of the City of Santa Fe (“City”) approved a Professional Services Agreement
(“Contract”) with WSP USA, Inc. for $1,887,871.87 to update the Land Development Code (Ch. 14 of the Municipal
Code) and develop a digital user platform to enhance public access to records and City information. This agreement
was filed with the Clerk's office as #24-0352. At that time, the Contract was issued for the entirety of the project, based
on the estimate provided in the response to the City’s RFP (#24/20/P). The contract, attached hereto as “Exhibit A,” was
issued in fulfillment of the RFP. The funds for Phase 1 were appropriated in Fiscal Years 2024, 2025 and 2026, and were
expended accordingly. This budget can be found in Org. 1004501 / Object Code 510300. During this time, the contract
was amended by the Office of Economic Development, in partnership with the Planning and Land Use Department, to
add an economic development strategic plan. This amendment increased the project budget by $154,223.69, which
resulted in a new total compensation of $2,042,095.56 (see Amendment #1, attached as “Exhibit B”). The current
request is for a second amendment, to add $649,125.00 to the project budget in order to accommodate an accelerated
schedule for the General Plan update and to expand support for the Community Partners Program, as well as addressing
some initially-unanticipated complexity related to the Assessment Report and some City-requested changes in the first
three steps of the project for the General Plan as well as the content and functionality of digital user platform. WSP
USA, Inc. has submitted a new proposed SOW, including budget, which is attached hereto as “Exhibit C” and is the
subject of the current request. This SOW details all remaining work and deliverables, leading to project completion by
December 2026. If approved, the new total compensation would be $2,691,220.56. The contract term ends on June 30,
2028. If the current amendment is approved, the City will issue a new Purchase Order for WSP USA, Inc. under the
amended Contract. The original Contract will remain active and intact, under the same contract identification number.
The revised SOW is slightly different from the original; however, it retains all the same key elements. The primary
difference is the accelerated timeline; also: the methods of public engagement have been refined to better align with
what worked best in Steps 1 and 2 of the process, and more of the affiliated tasks will be led by City staff as we transition
to a closer working relationship with our Community Partners, since this form of involvement will become more
common in future programs initiated by Land Use.
As a reminder, the General Plan update will be accomplished through the following steps:
• Step 1: Mobilization and Understanding
• Step 2: Vision and Goals
• Step 3: Scenario Planning
• Step 4: Development of Preferred Plan
• Step 5: Work Program and Funding Plan

Re: Contract #3204702, Amendment Request: Contract & Budget Adjustment Request for
Santa Fe Forward
Dear Heather,
Thank you for the opportunity to submit this request for a contract amendment and budget
increase for the City of Santa Fe General Plan Update (Contract #3204702), now known as Santa
Fe Forward. The purpose of this amendment is to update and align the scope of work for Santa
Fe Forward to focus on the tasks necessary to complete this project from the date hereof.
The parties acknowledge that the work completed to date, described in Exhibit 1, is subject to
the original scope of work and has been completed. With respect to the scope of work detailed
below and that is necessary to complete Santa Fe Forward, this amendment represents the
entire remaining agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior oral and written
agreements and representations between the parties.
We propose to perform and complete the work described herein through December 31, 2026,
for a lump sum additional fee of $600,000. This amount does not include New Mexico Gross
Receipts Tax (NMGRT). Estimated NMGRT (8.1875%), on the entire amendment amount, is
$49,125, and is to be paid separately by the City of Santa Fe, per the contract. The total
authorized project budget is $650,000 inclusive of NMGRT. These values do not include the
separate amendment and associated value for the Economic Development Strategy.
We are available to continue working immediately upon receipt of a contract amendment and
purchase order, or other mutually approved written Notice to Proceed. If you have any
questions during your review of our proposal, please contact me (505-870-4449;
nick.fazio@wsp.com) or Aron Kirsch (347-419-2191; aron.kirsch@wsp.com). On behalf of WSP

UNDERSTANDING
WSP, in collaboration with three specialized subconsultants, will work with the City of Santa Fe to
complete the General Plan Update – also known as Santa Fe Forward – and bring it through adoption.
This effort requires integrating substantial technical work already completed with remaining policy
development, scenario analysis, community engagement, and plan refinement. Our team recognizes the
need for a clear, coordinated, and efficient approach that maintains momentum, fills existing gaps, and
delivers a final plan that reflects community priorities, aligns with City objectives, and provides a strong
foundation for future decision-making.
Quality Assurance/Quality Control
Consultant team, including subconsultants, will perform services consistent with the professional
standard of care ordinarily exercised by consultants performing similar services. If the City reasonably
determines based on specific deficiencies that a deliverable does not materially conform to the agreed
scope of services or documented project requirements, Consultant will revise the deliverable at no
additional cost to the City, and document the request on the project management change log. Revisions
resulting from changes in scope, new direction, or additional information provided after the deliverable
was prepared may require an amendment to the scope and fee.
Human Authorship and Professional Judgment. The Consultant assumes that all services and work
products under this scope will be performed by qualified professional staff. Artificial intelligence (AI)
tools may be used on a limited basis to support internal efficiency, such as organizing large volumes of
public input; however, AI will not be used to independently produce project deliverables. All analysis,
interpretation, recommendations, and final work products will reflect the professional judgment and
authorship of human staff.
SCHEDULE
Project delivery is anticipated to commence on or around Monday, June 1, 2026 upon receipt of Notice
to Proceed (NTP), mutually acceptable to the City, WSP and its sub-consultants. A detailed project
schedule will be developed after NTP is received, but major milestones are anticipated to include
adoption of the final plan in late summer/early fall 2026, development of the implementation plan with
adoption in December 2026, and overall project completion by December 31, 2026. As this is an
accelerated project schedule, any delays resulting from procurement or administrative approvals shall
be addressed on a day-for-day basis, with all project milestones adjusted accordingly.
Closeout Activities. Project close-out activities, assumed to be delivery of all final files and deliverables,
handover of the project website and communications, and preparation and issuance of any remaining
outstanding invoices, will be fully completed with project completion. All obligations related to project
close-out shall be deemed satisfied upon completion of these activities.

SUBJECT: General Plan Update Contract
VENDOR: WSP USA, Inc.
ITEM AND ISSUE
Request for Approval of a Professional Services Agreement with WSP USA, Inc, to Update the General
Plan and Create a Digital User Platform In the Total Amount of $1,887,871.87, Inclusive of NMGRT for a
Four Your Term.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY
The General Plan is adopted by resolution and is the comprehensive planning document that sets the
City of Santa Fe's (City's) official policies guiding the long-ranging planning of physical growth,
community development, and public services, as well as the City'sgoals for subjects including equity,
inclusion, sustainability, affordability, and mobility. The General Plan is composed of several chapters,
each focusing on·specific topics related to the planning and development of the city. The goals and
objectives of each chapter are used to set City policy and are implemented through the City's Code of
Ordinances, regulating documents such as the Future Land Use Map, comprehensive planning efforts,
and other mechanisms.
The last comprehensive update of the currently adopted General Plan was in 19991 after several years of
community engagement, research, and drafting. Since 1999, the city has seen significant population
growth, infrastructure and sustainability concerns and economic fluctuations, and thus much of the data
supporting the 1999 plan is now out of date. Additionally, realignment with the City's Capital
Improvement Plan is needed. Finally, it should be acknowledged that 20-25 years is generally considered
to be the lifespan of a city-wide plan such as Santa Fe's General Plan.
This contract proposes that the process for the General Plan Update be informed by a robust community
conversation addressing the issues raised by the Governing Body, the associated recommendationsin
STEPCJONGOf!i.G
Work Program and Work Proraam and
I Tasks I
CITY OF SANTA FE
PLANNING & LAND USE
the Governing Body resolution that was approved on March 24, 2023, and other recommendations and
subject matter for consideration as identified, such as growth planning and management, mobility and
accessibility, adaptability, resiliency and sustainability, inclusion and equity, and economic strength and
opportunity. Furthermore, the contract calls for staff and the consultant to undertake efforts to evaluate
the 1999 planto identify its strengths and deficiencies. This willhelp ensure that proposed policies are
informed by the successes and beneficial outcomes, as well as the shortcomings, of the current plan and
will best address the needs of the Santa Fe community.
Included in the scope of work is the development of a digital platform that will not only provide
information on the General Plan Update process, but also the Zoning Code update process, community
engagement associated with both projects, and a robust Geographic Information Systems (GIS) platform
where community members can access information on subdivision plats, development plans, special use
approvals, historic preservation inventory forms, building permits, and much more. The development of
this platform will provide more accessible information which could assist in reducing the overall number
of public information (IPRA) requests.
The consultant offered an accelerated Work Plan that will shorten the duration of the update project.
The intent of this accelerated pace is to ensure that the General Plan aligns with Phase 3 of the Land
Development Code update, where the consultants of the two projects will review the draft General Plan
and Land Development Code updates to ensure consistency between the two documents.

I. INTRODUCTION
A. PURPOSE OF TIDS REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS
The p11rpose of the Request for Proposals (RFP) is to solicit sealed proposals to establish a conttact
through competitive negotiations for a Land Use Planning Consultant to facilitate a comprehensive
review and revision of the City of Santa Fe's (City) General Plan. New Mexico Statute refers to
this plan as a "Master Plan" and other government entities refer to it as "comprehensive" plan or
"master" plan.
B. BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The City of Santa Fe enjoys a long history as a municipality and in prior eras spanning from
settlement by the first Indigenous populations (whose descendants still call it Oga Po'geh, White
Shell Water Place), and followed by the Spanish Influence beginning in the 1500's and American
influence from the 1900's to modem times. Modem planning efforts began in Santa Fe in 1946,
with the adoption of the ''City Plan" prepared by Harland Bartholomew and Associates.
First adopted in 1972, and subsequently updated in 1983 and 1999, The General Plan is the City of
_Santa Fe's policy guide for land development, planning and growth objectives, related
implementation strategies, and the administration of the Land Development Code. It serves as the
statement of goals, recommendations and policy guidance for the development of the physical
environment of Santa Fe and other geographic areas in Santa Fe's region. The General Plan will
serve as a basis for land development approvals and other land and planning related implementation
programs within the City. The goals, vision, implementation policies and work programs, andpolicy
guidance of theGeneral Plan may be amended from time to time to meet the changing requirements
of the City.
The General Plan guides the comprehensive, long-range plan for the development and responsible
stewardship of Santa Fe's resources. It is a critical tool for priority identification and decision
making. It provides a policy framework for development proposals, capital improvements,
annexation, and extension of public services. It represents the vision of the Santa Fe community
and should be recognized as the City's foremost commitment to Santa Fe's future growth and
redevelopment objectives. It outlines a vision through various themes that reflect the aspirations of
the community and establishes a basis for review of development proposals and public projects to
ensure that they are consistent with policy objectives. It provides for strategies that will enhance
the character of the community and preserve critical environmental and historic resources and
minimize potential hazards. It provides the basis for establishing and setting priorities for
implementing programs and regulations and provides the basis for nurturing a vital community and
assuring input from all segments of the population.
The General Plan's last comprehensive update was adopted in 1999, after several years of community
engagement, analysis anddrafting. The1999 General Plan, along with the Future Land Use Map,
continues to be the presiding document which guides city planning and land use policy and review of
new development proposals. While many of the themes in the 1999 General Plan remain relevant for
Page 16
contemporary planning, the data and analysis in 1999 General Plan have not been updated to reflect
contemporary circumstances in Santa Fe and the shifting priorities of the world at large, it is no longer
directly tied to the City's Capital Improvements Plans and does not incorporate plans adopted since
1999.
Due to these circumstances, theCity is endeavoring to revise theGeneral Plan to reflect current
conditions and respond to contemporary issues such as climate change, housing affordability, and
social equity. The General Plan Update should acknowledge and honor relevant components of the
existing 1999 General Plan while recognizing contemporary challenges and opportunities. The
revision should identify economic, demographic and environmental changes in Santa Fe in the years
since the 1999 General Plan was adopted It should then identify both theshort-term and long-term
needs and desires of thecommunity and provide a strategic framework for addressing those needs in a
responsible and equitable way.
The General Plan Update will be conducted concurrently with the Land Development Code (LDC)
Update project, Phase 1 of which is already underway. The LDC Update is a multi-phase project
led by the Land Use and Planning Department in collaboration with Clarion Associates, a
consulting firm that specializes in ordinance development and plan implementation, to restructure
and update the City's Land Development Code.
Phase i of the project is focused on identifying issues with the code and recommending non-
substantive amendments to the code's organization and text that will make the code easier to
understand and administer. Phase 2 of the project is focused on more substantive changes
including LDC's procedures, regulations, and zoning districts. Finally, Phase 3 of the project
focuses on adding additional substantive revisions to implement the land use and growth goals and
policies of the updated Santa Fe General Plan identified by General Plan Update project. The
General Plan Update consultant is expected to collaborate with the Land Development Code
update project team across all three phases, but particularly in Phase 3, where the code will be
amended to reflect the goals and policies identified in the General Plan update project. The full
Land Development Code project scope is provided in the Procurement Library (Section LG.).
In addition to the LDC update, the following planning activities are ongoing and will need to be
included in the Plan update:
1. Culture, History, Art, Reconciliation and Truth (CHART): an extensive public engagement
effort initiated in response to the period of civil unrest in 2020.
2. Santa Fe Water 2100: a 100-year water resource plan currently being drafted by the City's
Water Division.
3. Midtown District Redevelopment: A major City-led redevelopment project of the former
College of Santa Fe campus. A master plan bas been completed and RFP's have been
issued for development proposals.
4. Complete Streets Engineering Handbook: An effort led by the Public Works Department to
update the City's Street design and engineering standards and move them from the Land
Development Code to an Engineering Handbook managed by Public Wo.rks.
5. Bicycle and Multi.modal Master Plans Update: An effort led by the Santa Fe Metropolitan
Planning Organization to update the existing Bicycle and Multimodal Master Plans.
Pagel7
The General Plan Update consultant is expected to collaborate with the project teams and
incorporate the findings from these ongoing planning efforts into the goals and objectives
identified as part of the update project.

used as a tool in daily decision-makingat City Hall.
This plan represents a departure from traditional
comprehensive planning and will be organized not by siloed
topic areas, but instead by broad inter-connected strategy
areas dubbed visibility, mobility, livability, and serviceability.
WSP is leading the development of the mobility, livability, and
serviceability elements of the plan. The plan's objectives include recommendations on 28 issues, like
public transportation.jobs access, freight and goods movement, multimodal mobility, vision zero,
infrastructure,sustainability,jobs access, parks and openspace, public health, affordable housing,
business development, and other topics. Each of the objectives include analysis and narrative
describing the purpose of the objective, detailed actionsteps, and performance measures to track
implementation of the plan.
The WSP team coordinated public and stakeholder involvement, conducting strategy sessions
that cover a wide range of topic areas of interest to neighborhood and community leaders.
These conversations have been informed by the technical, data-driven analysis of the WSP team
as well as a review of plans and policies in Kansas City's peer cities. Deep stakeholder engagement
took place primarily over Zoom, taking advantage of breakout discussion groups and live polling
features to get informed feedback. The WSP team worked with the City to draft final plan objectives
and recommendations, which were organized by strategy area, plan goal area, and traditional topics
(e.g. transportation, housing, land use, etc.). These objectives will live online in an interactive web-
based format to ensure that the plan can be used as a tool in daily decision-making at City Hall and
for coordinating with other stakeholders. The plan recommendationswill also be organized into a
structured database, with references to applicable geographies, key performance indicators, and other
relevant city plans and policies.

KAY BAILEY HUTCHISON CONVENTION CENTER DALLAS
(KBHCCD) MASTER PLAN
CITY OF DALLAS / DALLAS, TX
Like ongoing initiatives in Santa Fe, such as Midtown
Campus redevelopment, the KBHCCD Master Plan
provides a comprehensive vision for an important
city district, making this much broader and inclusive
than a convention center. This Master Plan focuses
elements relevant to Santa Fe such as leveraging transit
access for future development, multimodal transportation
enhancement, and the creation of a walkable and dynamic
multi-use public space.
The KBHCCD Master Plan provides a comprehensive vision
for the future of the convention center and surrounding
district. The Master Plan lays out a strategy to
transform the facility into one of the nation's premier
Convention Centers that is both compelling and
competitive in the market in terms of the amount
and quality of available space (exhibit, ballroom, and
meeting rooms), on-site amenities, a leader in design and
surrounded by a walkable, transit accessible district.The
master plan considers the many investments required to
achieve the plan's goals in a holistic and integrated plan.
Four critical elements of the master plan that support the transformation of the convention center are:
• Area Plan Leverages improved transit access to create a dynamic 30 plus acre mixed-use district
around the convention center, extending the vitality and excitement from inside the convention
center to the surrounding area.
• Multimodal Station Plan Brings together transit routes in the area to increase accessibility
for the new, expanded Convention Center and serve the substantial new development in the
Convention Center District.
• TransportationPlan Proposes enhancements to the multimodal transportationand street
networks to improve access to the Convention Center and surrounding district, and to better
connect the region.
• Funding and Financing Plan Identifies plan for implementation,funding, and financing identifies
strategies that capture the value created by these investments to pay for the new Convention
Center without financially impacting Dallas residents.

BURNHAM YARD
STATE OF COLORADO P3 UNIT/ DENVER, CO
Burnham Yard is a key historic asset located
in a strategic location in Denver, similar
to the varied historic and cultural assets
located throughout Santa Fe. As owner's
representative and master planner, WSP
helped foster the Burnham Yard plan, which
focuses on creating value to stitch together
neighborhoods,achieve beneficial mobility
improvements, and redevelopment while
promoting responsible preservation of historic
assets. All these key objectives are relevant to
future development considerations in Santa Fe.
Burnham Yard was an important railyard and employment center for the Denver region. with its
establishment prior to Colorado statehood. Because of its role in the development of the region and
its age, potentially significant historic resources exist. In 2016, Union Pacific Railroad ended railyard
operations on the property, opening the opportunity for the State to acquire the site.Since its
decommissioning, it has sat underutilized despite its strategic location in central Denver.
While its location is strategic, there are many obstacles to overcome at the site. Given the history
and use as a rail yard, there are significant costs for transportationand infrastructure improvements,
complex environmental remediation, and costs to advance the laudable social initiatives mandated
of the P3 Unit. The redevelopment plan will help guide the potential value opportunities that can
becreated from the site based on informed market and social equity findings to achieve beneficial
mobility improvements and redevelopment.The site is long, yet narrow and constrained by freight
and transit raillines.An existing RTD light rail station presents an opportunity for equitable transit-
oriented development. Proximity to the Auraria Higher Education Center is another opportunity to
explore relative to the campus master plan and advancing key initiatives of the P3 Unit. Stitching
together neighborhoods surrounding Burnham Yard would mitigate the decades-long impact of
Interstate 25- the Valley Highway- has had and presents an opportunity to linkwith natural resources
and trails in the area including the South Platte River, Cherry Creek, and Lakewood Gulch.

NEW JERSEY TRANSIT 5-YEAR CAPITAL PLAN
NEW JERSEY TRANSIT f NEWARK, NJ
Similar to Santa Fe's goal to develop General Plan Update
that is immediately implementable and guides decision
making, WSP developed the NJ Transit 5-year Capital Plan
to guide strategic investments. The Capital Plan reflects a
comprehensive vision through an ambitious set of projects
and programs that focus on key impacts relevant to Santa Fe
such as comprehensive transit investments and the support
of economic development and equity.
Currently, WSP is supporting NJ Transit in developing and regularly updating its 5-Year Capital
Plan to guide critical strategic investments across the agency. Released in June 2020, the Capital
Plan presents an unconstrained vision and ambitious set of projects and programs to provide a vastly
improved experience for customers and leverage transit to build healthy, inclusive, and sustainable
communities. The projects and programs included in the Capital Plan are estimated at $5.78 billion over
the next five years. Major areas of work included providing strategic support to identify comprehensive
transit investments; determining how those investments could support economic development and
equity; evaluating socioeconomic, planning, environmental, and operational impacts; and advising
on project prioritization methods. rn partnership with WSP, the content of the Capital Plan will
be renewed and reprioritized regularly to reflect the emerging needs of the state and NJTransit's
customers.
RESILIENT NJ REGIONAL RESILIENCE ADAPTATION ACTION PLAN
NJ DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION/ ATLANTIC CITY REGION, NJ
WSP is currently leading a consultant team in the

NJ program. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD)-funded regional planning project is one
of four pilot regions in the Resilient NJ program, which seeks
to set the precedent for how to reduce flood damages and
increase physical and social resilience to climate impacts
through community-based resiliency planning. This is an example where WSP and consulting
partners are tapping into a broad range of expertise to address multi-dimensional resilience
challenges at the regional scale. Developing innovative solutions over a long-term horizon is a
key focus for the project and the Atlantic County Coastal Region won the Resilient NJ Innovation
Competition for incorporating innovative ideas and practices into the proposed solutions to address
dimate vulnerabilities.

3. MANDATORY SPECIFICATION
UNDERSTANDING & APPROACH
Santa Fe-the City Different-is comparatively ancient
in America but its legacy goes back much further than
what is classically understood to be Santa Fe's founding
by the Spanish. Indigenous peoples have lived in Santa
Fe and well beyond for millennia, shaping what is today
and what it can be tomorrow. Other cultures have and
continue to shape the city.Santa Fe is known for its
historic downtown, the Plaza, arts community, natural
setting and more. During the 20th century, it also
developed muchlike cities across the United States, with
production-built suburban neighborhoods servedby
roads designed for the automobile and unfortunately,
exclusionary practices. It is the capital of New Mexico-
the oldest capital in the United States-yet its economy
SANTA FE'S FY2023-24 BUDGET GOALS

is predominately tourism and government. There are vast economic disparities, a lack of attainable
housing and limited mobility choices. Santa Fe is a wonderfol, magical place that experiences
challenges similar to many citiesbut its history, diversity and being Different gives it many
opportunities other cities lack. An updated General Plan can help focus the community in heading
toward a common vision to capitalize or create opportunities and innovatively solve challenges.
It Is Time for an Overall Update and Focusing on Strategic Areas
Much about the 1999 General Plan undoubtedly remains valid and useful, but its vintage is still 1999-
allagree it's time to comprehensively update the General Plan. Some changes will be applicable
citywide. Others will focus on strategic areas due to opportunities,challenges and identified
priorities. Both scales will be determined during the process-a process that WSP has designed to be
highly effective in updating the plan.
Increasing Cultural Awareness
Santa Fe's Culture, History, Art, Reconciliationand Truth(CHART) process was and continues to be a
pivotal epoch for Santa Fe that isstill playing out because there is much to do. Updating the General
Plan is part of that process of atonement and meaningful, tangible change to reflect Santa Fe's rich
cultural tapestry, regardless of power and wealth. Too often General Plans focus on growth and
development. Neither will be occurring across most of the developed city. A General Plan must be
broader to maintain, enhance, mitigate, change, improve, and accommodate for todayand tomorrow
in a manner that is guided by Santa Fe.

Diversificationto Inclusively Serve Diversity, Increasing Access to Opportunity
Like most American cities, Santa Fe needs more diversity of housing types in the right places and
coordinated with more mobility choices. Both are critical, leading ingredients to increased economic
diversity. No city is "built-out." Cities are always changing and some areas are well-suited to change.
Some change is needed to seize opportunities and address challenges. How that change is sustainably
and equitably accomplished is a key indicator for the success of this General Plan Update. A
thoughtful process, backed by technical work and engagement with deep experience is what the WSP
team provides to support the City.
Regionalism for Collaboration
Santa Fe has far-reaching influence, from Albuquerque to Los Alamos; Taos and Espanola; many
pueblos; and the County and MPO. That represents a lot of potential resources warranting stronger
collaboration.The General Plan can suggest what is possible, with an implementation plan and
governance framework to facilitate regionalism. Transit and housing are two examples of how a
regional approach can improve quality of life and advance a more just Santa Fe.
Stewardship, Wellbeing, and Resiliency in Harmony with the Environment
Santa Fe sits within a dry climate that is warming and drying. This has stressed water resources in
particular today, with more stresses coming with a changing climate. WSP is a leader in resiliency,
sustainability, and equity because we envision, plan, design, and deliver transformational
infrastructure projects-actual projects, not theories that sitona shelf.

INTRODUCTION TO PROPOSED ALTERNATIVE PROCESS
The RFP offered the opportunity for proposers to illustrate critical and strategic thinking by
suggesting an alternative process. WSP is proposing an alternative process, outlined in the
table below, with a crosswalk table showing the relationship between the process in the
RFP. This process is proposed to allow a progression of steps to create the building blocks that can
effectively result in consensus building. By aligning to a stepwise, building blocks approach, evident
stage gates are defined to establish a clear milestone with interim decision-making. Deliverables
and a readiness review are aligned to these stage gates at which the Planning Commission and
Governing Body will be asked to confirm readiness to advance into the next step.This process also
allows the project to potentially be completed much faster-2.5 years instead of four-because of its
progressive characteristics, project management rigor and alignment with the public review process.
This approach can and will still be coordinated with the Land Development Code (LDC) Update. It
is important that the General Plan Update be completed timely due to its vintage, urgent need for
updating and to support informing the details of the LDC Update, as the LDC is an implementationtool
guided by the General Plan. General Plans are higher level documents, with less detail than land use
codes, so it takes less time to complete. A four-year work program risks community fatigue, evolving
issues, and missed opportunities. Interim LDC regulations can be deployed, pending completion of the
LDC, to ensure linkage between the updated General Planand eventual LDC update.

FOUNDATION: THE FlRST BUILDING
BLOCKS ARE LAID HERE
What's missing and where? Who is it for and how
willit help them? What are we trying to deliver
and how will it be provided?
These are excellent questions the RFP posits and
are critical building blocks, along with the basics
that demand attention in Step 1: Mobilization and
Understanding.
STEP 1: MOBILIZATION AND
UNDERSTANDING
Tms step is when the project is initiated,
concluding the procurement process with a notice
to proceed. Every step is important to advancing
the General Plan Update with consensus. This
step matters because it gets the project organized;
undertakes an assessment to establish its purpose,
need and potential with greater specificity; and
identifies early guiding themes from which to
support visioning and goal-setting. Foundational
building blocks resulting from this step include:
• Project Management Plan: the playbook
for undertaking the General Plan Update,
which includes the scope of work, schedule,
budget, organizational chart, decision-
making and more.
• Assessment Report: a compendium that
methodically studies existing conditions,
trends, and themes usingan evidence-based
approach and further informed by public
engagement.
• Public Engagement Plan: sets forth the
strategies and tactics for communicating,
educating and engaging myriad audiences.
• Digital User Interfaces: internal - and
external-facing digital tools to manage,
communkate and engage on the project.
• Templates: templates that provide a
common communications vernacular for
consistency and quality.
The revised General Plan must bring together
multiple and overlapping goals in one
comprehensive plan to capture the desired vision
and choices related to Santa Fe's future. The
plan will integrate transportation, housing and
developments to meet community, economic,
financial, and sustainabilitygoals.To achieve
the goals of the revised General Plan, we will
build on past studies and plans tested against an
understanding of existing conditions and analyze a
full rang of issues and challenges facing the City.
The existing conditions and trends documented as
part of this step will be the basis for an Assessment
Report that will establish a baseline analysis of
existing conditions. The WSP team will map and
characterize existing conditions.
The Assessment Report will include the topics
identified in the RFP and highlighted in detail
herein, including from initial public engagement
findings and the LDC Foundations body of work.
It is important to have a clear understanding of
what has already beenaccomplished in Santa Fe
since 1999, the underlying fundamentals of the
community, and how the General Plan Update can
best address critical issues and opportunities.The
Final Assessment Report willidentify the following:
• Summary of existing conditions, trends and
engagement findings,
• Identification of relevant planning issues in
each subject area including issues identified
through the public engagement process,
• Identification of short- and long-term
needs and desires as defined by Santa Fe
communities,
• Narrative description of steps that can
be taken to address findings within each
subject area, and
• Policy implications and recommendations
for the General Plan.
The comprehensive Assessment Report will
synthesize the analysis for eachsubject area, build
upon the goals, strategies, and programs already
defined, and incorporate the public engagement

input that will serve as a community atlas. As a
community atlas the Assessment Report will serve
as a base line of understanding and a foundation to
inform Scenario Planning and the content of the
General Plan Update. The policy implications and
recommendations for the General Plan will be dearly
defined as a chapter within the Assessment Report
to ensure a clear transition between project steps
and all existingconditions, trends, and engagement
findings are incorporated into the General
Plan Update.
REVIEW OF PRIOR PLANS & STUDIES
& EXISTING POLICIES
As a starting point, the WSP team will review
prior plans and studies provided by the client to
understand the existing conditions and planning
goals for the City. We will also review and summarize
existing policies that will influence future
growth and the feasibility of development.
It will be important that the General Plan
Update reflect prior decisions and public
feedback rather than starting completely
anew-respectfulof the past and present.
Based on this review and summary, we will
identify opportunities,issues and summarize
key findings that will be incorporated into
or influence the recommendations in the
General Plan Update.
BASE MAPPING
A crucial first step of the effort to update
the Genera] Plan involves gathering base
mapping information to facilitate an
analysis of existing conditions and trends.
This foundational step is essential for
understanding the current state of the city's
infrastructure, land use,and demographic
patterns, providing a solid basis for
informed decision-makingin the planning
process.
To initiate this endeavor, our team will
integrate existing geographic information
systems (GIS), satellite imagery, and
ground-level surveys (where appropriate) to create
a comprehensive spatial database. GIS technology
will playa crucial role in mapping and analyzing the
spatial relationships among various elements, such
as land use, transportation networks, public facilities,
and environmental features. This comprehensive
mapping effort will not only capture the static
aspects of the city but will also incorporate dynamic
elements, allowing for the examination of trends
overtime.
We will coordinate with City GIS staff to ensure the
data and map templates are compatible with the
City's existing GIS resources. Our team will employ
ArcGIS Pro 3.x for data analysis and mapping,
along with ArcGIS Online and other Esri products
as needed. The robust base mapping willserve as a
foundation for the existing conditions studies review
and other remaining tasks.

REGlONAL TRENDS
An endeavor of this importance must be based
on solid, factual market information so that
the recommended typologies, development,
preservation, and enhancement strategies are not
just grounded in reality but are also redible an
can be supported by a wide range of 1mplementmg
partners and private investors.
We will prepare a thorough and objective citywide
market analysis and forecast to ground the
community conversation and visioning process and
to form the basis of the resulting implementation
strategy. The goal is to present a readable and
engaging story of where Santa Fe has been, how
it is projected to grow and change, and which
external forces and trends are likely to shape its
future. Information will make significant use of
maps and infographics for use online, in print, and
at presentations. Elements of the market and trends
analysis will include:
Mapping of existing uses and conditions
Demographics (Census-based data) across all
relevant indicators, showing historical trends
and future forecasts where possible
• Real estate market conditions (rents, vacancy,
absorption, etc.) for office, retail, hospitality,
and residential uses
• Visitor behavior analysis (Placer.ai cell phone
data)
• Post-COVID office and retail trends
• Impacts of regional, state, and national
economic conditions on housing and
commercial markets
• Housing demand for both rental and
ownership (affordable and market rate)
• Opportunity site identification (vacant,
underutilized)
Planned/proposed projects
LAND CAPABILITY ANALYSIS
Using data available from the City and other public
sources, we will prepare a land capability analysis to
guide growth scenario planning and development
capacity. This analysis will inform the public
about areas within the city that are well suited to
accommodate growth and change, and areas that
should either be avoided or require significant
coordination. Data layers that we will consider
include:
• Topography
Utilities and Infrastructure
• Agricultural Lands
• Rivers and Arroyos
• Surface Hydrology
• Flood Plains
• RailRunner Stations and Transit Stops
• Santa Fe Trails Bus System
• Bikeways and Trails

will detail the amount and type of development that
is possible under the existing adopted policies and
regulations. The LDC update work products will also
inform this section. We will couple this information
with an understanding of the fiscal sustainability
work our team is completing to provide a report
that details opportunities for new development,
including infill and redevelopment.This information
will enable the city and community to begin to
prioritize development types and locations in future
engagement stages.
NEIGHBORHOODS
Defined by character areas, land uses, key
transportationcorridors, and existing
neighborhood associations, we will developan
official Neighborhoods and Districts map for
the City. This map will consider the built form,
natural characteristics,development density, the
positioning ofland uses and their adjacencies,
and other character elements that define distinct
neighborhoods of the city.The Neighborhood and
District mapcan be a useful tool in overlaying
demographic and other data to determine defined
areas of need in future policy and fundingscenarios.
EXISTING LAND USE DEVELOPMENT
Santa Fe bas grownsignificantly since the 1999
General Plan, and an analysis of what exists
today is critical to determine how much land is
available for potential new development, infill,
and redevelopment. Our work will include an
analysis of existing land uses and development,
with a focus on understanding what exists today
and what opportunities might be available. We will
use available GIS data on zoning and land uses to
map the existing development and use patterns,
with a focus on identifying potential opportunity
areas. Using the mapping and an analysis of the
development code, we will identify infill and
redevelopment opportunities that might exist. The
Existing Land Use and Development section will be
a comprehensive review of all land use types and
FISCAL SUSTAINABILITY
Our work will incorporate a fiscal sustainability
strategy to ensure that the fiscal impacts of growth
are captured and that proposed projects and
initiatives are feasible. As with other aspects of the

educational and data-driven so that the visioning
process is provided with objective data to inform
growth alternatives.
Working closely with Santa Fe GIS and Planning staff,
we will develop a baseline model to analyze various
fiscal attributes of land and property throughout
the city. As different attributes may be more or less
useful to different parts of the planning process,
weanticipate developing a flexible model that can
beadjusted quickly to illustrate different fiscal
dynamics. Likely attributes to be analyzed and
mapped will include:
• Property value per acre (including both land
and improvements), expressed as a value per
acre;
• Improvement to land value ratio (to illustrate
potentially redevelopable or underutilized
land);
• Tax generation per parcel (incorporating tax.-
exempt properties) to illustrate fiscal impact
to the city and other taxingjurisdictions;
• GRT and other employment-baseddata to
understand the impact of business activity
(as available from the state and aggregated
to ensure confidential business activity is not
disclosed);
• GIS mapping to illustrate patterns throughout
the community, combined withland use,
zoning, transportation, and other data layers
to understand fiscal dynamics.
During Step 3, this data will further be used to enable
the scenario planning to output fiscal impacts with
each alternative.
URBAN DESIGN
This analysis will focus on elements that will
contribute to Santa Fe's image as a great place to
live, work and play. Public elements could include
street character, street lighting, viewcorridors,
and identity enhancement elements, including
landmarks and gateways. Private elements
could include parking treatments, development
patterns (site planning criteria), and development
character (building and landscape criteria). We will
summarize the findings in an urban design analysis
to understand the qualities that are unique to Santa
Fe and identify the potential for placemaking. As
part of this assessment our team will conduct a field
visit and a visual survey. Site survey findings will be
documented with maps, photographs and a short-
written description.
An urban design assessment will investigate the
existing built form, including the public realm,
of key sectors, special planning areas, gateways,
and other important districts to identify the
characteristics that either support or detract from
quality development, economic vitality, social
vibrancy, and civic identity. This analysis will be used
in public engagement to inform spatial qualities and
building form that are important to the successful
implementation of development types in different
land use and character zones - specifically related
to citycharacter, sector, and special area planning.
Items that wewill catalogue in this assessment
include:
• Urban forestry
• Streetscape composition (including
materiality)
• Public art, lighting, and amenities
• Landscape
• Building height and scale
• Building articulation
• lazas and civic spaces
• Utilities
• Street composition
• Natural areas and areas with potential for

esponse to Spec·tications f C
TRANSPORTATION
Since the development of Santa Fe's General Plan in
1999, the transportation networkand connectivity
has drastically changed. The range of mobility
options, how transportationis used, and the need
for more interconnectedand responsive options for
moving in and around Santa Fe have changed.It is
important that the city is prepared to adapt with
changing transportation needs and priorities and
to leverage new transportation technologies and
funding programs. This will help Santa Fe expand
its network of safer, more affordable, and reliable
mobility options that will also increase accessibility
and ensure equitable access to community services
and employment
A review of existing transportationstudies and
plans identified by the City of Santa Fe (multimodal
transition plan, bicycle/ped/transit plans,
sustainability plan), along with the MPO's recent
work on complete streets, will provide WSP with
a solid understanding of the community's ideas
and initiatives to expand mobility choices and
create a more accessible city. A matrix will be
created to ensure we integrate transportation
recommendations with the goals and objectives of
each existing plan and study.
Using available data and material from the City, an
inventory of the existing network characteristics
willbe compiled that caninclude streets and
roadways, transit routes and stops, rail lines
and stations, and bike and pedestrian pathways.
Demographic and household trends data impacting
transportation conditions will also be compiled
and assessed usinginnovative and interactive web-
based mapping applications. These tools assist us
to identify travel conditions and to verify current
transportationdeficiencies and opportunities. From
this analysis, our team will identify key performance
indicators and develop improvement targets for
the City to measure its mode-shift progress as it
implements mobility and accessibility planning
recommendations.
TheTransportation section will be a comprehensive
review and assessment of the city's multimodal
transportation network that will provide a baseline
of information on existing transportation conditions
and services. and detail the key issues, barriers
toward progress, and long-range transportation
goals. The report will also provide specific data
analysis and recommendations that are fiscally
responsible and immediately implementable.
PUBLIC & PRIVATE UTILITIES
The General Plan Update will closely examine the
intersection between growth policies and public
and private utilities and services such as water
wastewater, electricity, and gas.Consistent with
the 1999 General Plan themes, sustainable growth,
quality of life, and affordable housing remain key
considerationsfor the future of Santa Fe. Demand,
quality, and availability of public and private utilities
are primary considerations for new development and
recommended growth patterns within the city. The
existing conditions analysis will include a review of
baseline conditions and projections to understand
the availability and need for public and private
utilities in different growth scenarios. Payment
methods for future public and private utilities is
an additional guiding consideration that will be
examined. The utilities report will be comprehensive
and future-focused,specifically with City of Santa Fe
water, wastewater, and stormwater utilities.
City of Santa Fe Genera1 Plan update
Response to Specifications I O
Climate change and resilience are key trends related
to the availability of water and energy sources in the
near and short-term future-. The city budget provides
evidence to Santa Fe's commitment to sustainability
and being at the forefront of renewable energy
and forward-lookingwater planningincluding
conservation and reuse. The transition to clean
energy sources within New Mexico includes solar,
wind, and geothermal. As detailed in the City of
Santa Fe Water Storymap, climate change is expected
to reduce stream.flow and mountain snowpacks
throughout the southwest. Since1995, Santa Fe
has had great success in reducing water demand
through conservation even witha 25-percent
increase in population served. Through a pro-active
water management approach, Santa Fe prioritizes
using surface water when available to preserve
groundwater for drought conditions.Combined with
the steady increase in demand through conservation,
groundwater aquifers continue to recover from past
practices of excessive pumping.
Today, water is provided to the city from four
different surface water and groundwater sources.
The existing conditions analysis will integrate
key ongoing efforts within the city including the
near-term 5-Year Water Conservation and Drought
Management Plan and the Santa Fe Water 2100
- a long-term Water Resource Plan to provide a
comprehensive view of Santa Fe's management
of water resources. The intersection with other
initiatives such as the Santa Fe Living River
ordinance that supports the Santa Fe riparian
corridor will also be documented. The Santa Fe
General Plan Update will build upon past successes
and develop a coordinated blueprint the reflects
sustainable growth balanced with resource
management.
WSP will identify all current utility providers
(public/private)in Santa Fe, withan emphasis on
City of Santa Fe water, wastewater, and stormwater
utilities. WSP will review and compile any Utility
system Plans and Public Works Capital Plans
and comprehensively display/map the existing
utility system area and proposed expansion and/
or improvements necessary to accommodate
growth and other updated policies. The Team will
identify any inconsistenciesin land use and growth
projections presented in the various utility plans.
In addition, the WSP team will identify proposed
improvements from existing utility and capita1 plans
to accommodate the growth and anticipated project
completion dates.
We want to ensure that utilities are planned for
expansion and improvements by identifying utility
service efficiencies and gaps between existing
conditions and proposed land use and growth
projects. Our team can assist Santa Fe to holistically
understand opportunities associated with utility
expansion/improvements for projected land use and
population growth by providing recommendations
for potential project improvement/expansion
opportunities between utilities to provide less public
disturbance and identity potential multi-benefit
projects.
Our team has experience in developing utility
policies that areconsistent with comprehensive plan
policies. We understand how to work with existing
water utilities to identify any conflicts or deficiencies
in comprehensive plan policies that mayaffect
successful utility planning and also identify utility
policies that caninform comprehensive plan policies.
HISTORICAL & CULTURAL FACILITIES
Arts, culture, and historic preservation are of
crucial importance to the City of Santa Fe. Santa Fe
is a community that is rich in history and cultural
diversity, with strong traditions and a distinctive
sense of place. These elements collectively form
the foundation of a unique identity.The local arts
scene is a vibrant platform for creative expression,
fostering a deep sense of community and driving
economic development.
Historic preservation plays a vital role in maintaining
the city's legacy, providing tangible connections
to Santa Fe's past while shaping its character for
future generations. The combined efforts in arts,
culture, and historic preservation make a significant

Response to Specifications f C
contribution to Santa Fe's quality oflife, creatinga
city that is dynamic, diverse, and deeply rooted in its
history. As part of our scope of work, the WSP team
will undertake the following tasks:
• Collaborate with ongoing initiatives,
organizations,and City and State departments
to prepare a comprehensive catalogue of
existing and prospective arts, cultural, and
historic resources across the city;
• Participate in the process of identifying,
establishing, and assessing the viability of a
possible Arts & Cultural District;
• Undertake an examination and valuation
of historic resources, including a thorough
review of the city's five historic districts and
adjacent areas;
• Investigate and evaluate cultural, prehistoric,
and paleontological resources; and
Consider outcomes from the City's
CHART process in the development of
recommendations.
PUBLIC SAFETY
Public safety is a common thread that will inform
recommendations and implementation policies in
several of the General Plan Update elements. As
defined in the city budget, safety is an overarching
priority for Santa Fe. Multiple streams of revenue
are available, including funds from the Federal
government, to invest in safety initiatives alongside
social, economic development and job training, and
community health programs. Our team will take
a comprehensive view in developing the Public
Safety section by exploring the intersection of
several themes as they relates to public safetysuch
as social programs, the environment, community
health, and economic development. A desktop
review of plans such as the City of Santa Fe Office
of Emergency Management 2018-2022 Strategic
Plan and the Hazard Mitigation Plan will lay the
groundwork for an understanding of public safety
goals, strategies, and initiatives that will inform the
development of the Santa Fe General Plan Update.
The WSP team will document existing conditions and
trends by incorporating input from key community
health and safety stakeholders such as Santa Fe
Police Department and Fire Department, Office of
Emergency Management and Community Services.
Stakeholder and public input will help identify
critical safety needs and opportunities of the city
as a whole and needs of specific neighborhoods and
communities.
SCHOOLS
The Santa Fe Public Schools and overall education
vision and direction should align with city growth
strategies as they are outlined in the sustainable
Growth Management Planand the General Plan
Update. There are also several higher education
institutions within the citysuch as private colleges
and universities, public colleges and universities,
and community colleges. These higher education
offerings and campuses serve as important
community resources and bubs but also require
partnerships between the city and schools around
planning topics such as quality oflife, safety,
housing, community concerns, and collaboration
with community service organizations.Therefore,
developing a Schools section will be critical to
understanding the existing education conditions and
trends within the community. The WSP team will
complete a desktop review of the Santa Fe Public
Schools Facilities Master Plan Update 2021-2026 to

understand recommended capital improvements
and findings. For example, the Facilities Master Plan
Update includes projections that indicate that excess
classrooms will continue to grow over the next ten
years.
Student population shifts from the north to the
southwest sectors create facility demands in the
south.Transfers into the older, northern schools
remain high, so the schools are utilized well in the
north. Traditional middle schools and high schools
are underutilized,while alternative schools continue
to show an increase in demand.
In addition to obtaining input from Santa Fe Public
Schools, our team will also engage with higher
education institutions and other alternative schools
such as charter schools. The Santa Fe Public Schools
(SFPS) is undertaking a Reirnagining SFPS initiative
that will also provide insight on important trends
to consider when developing recommendationsand
implementation policies. The initiative has already
highlighted several themes such as the need for
community schools, the importance of bilingual
programs, wellness, the intersection with outdoor
learning and cultural programs, and transportation
mobility.
LI '
PARKS & RECREATION
A comprehensive Parks and Recreation section
will link to several General Plan themes and existing
conditions such as environmental stewardship and
habitat preservation, expansion of biodiversity, arts
and culture, equity, sustainable growth and provision
of services, community resilience, and the role of
open space within future land use and development
plans. The City has over 100 existing park facilities
and 170 miles of trails. The Parks and Recreation
evaluation will be informed by the final Planning
Area Boundary for the City's General Plan Update and
the recognition that Santa Feis home to significant
landscapes throughout the County that offer a range
of recreational opportunities. A desktop review of
plans such as the Santa Fe County Open Space, Trails,
and Parks Strategic Management Plan (2019), Open
Land and Trails Plan (2000), and the Open Space
Management Plans will lay the groundwork for an
understanding of the existing conditions of the parks
and open spaces within the broader Santa Fe region.
Understanding the future goals and initiatives within
the region will inform the development of the Santa
Fe General Plan Update.
Over the past 20 years the Santa Fe Open Space,
Trails and Parks Program (OSTP) has moved from
acquisition to resource management and providing
meaningful experiences for residents within the
region. Santa Fe strives to be a national leader in
conservation, innovative land management, and the
provision of exceptional recreation opportunities.
While open space conservation remains a key
priorityso is the importance of providing access
to openspaces, trail connections, educational
programming, and context-sensitive and sustainable
property management. There is also the recognition
that open space, parks, trails, and recreational
facilities should reflect the regional needs and user
patterns within Santa Fe as they are defined in
four management landscapes - El Norte, El Centro,
Galisteo, and Estancia.

This understanding will be overlayed with relevant
themes from the Santa Fe SustainabilityPlan
such as enhancing the connectivity of greenbelt
and habitat corridors, watersheds and parks,
and stormwater management through green
infrastructure.Community Plans within Santa Fe
County also document goals for open space, trail
connections and environmental conservation at
the community scale. Several goals and strategies
within the Sustainable Growth Management Plan
are also linked to parks and recreation such as
community-based stewardship, education and
outreach related to natural and cultural resource
protection, and coordination and partnership with
other landowners. Collaboration is a key theme with
neighboring Pueblo of Tesuque, Hyde Memorial State
Park, and federal land agencies such as the Santa Fe
National Forest and the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM). Management ofshared borders, species,
habitats, and recreation impacts is emphasized in
the Santa Fe National Forest Plan. The BLMTaos
Resource Management Plan recognizes the need for
coordination withSanta Fe on a broader landscape-
scale management approach for recreational access
and biodiversity since BLM property borders several
Santa Fe County Open Space properties. Collectively,
these concepts and trends will be outlined in
the Parks and Recreation analysis to inform the
General Plan Update and provide a comprehensive
and balanced approach to recreational needs
and opportunities, future land development and
landscape conservation.
HOUSING
LCG prepares analyses to support community housing
elements as part of general and comprehensive plans
for communities across the U.S. More recently, in
response to the housing affordability crisis, this work
has expanded to include housing action plans, which
expand upon the assessment of existing conditions
and needs to include strategies to encourage housing
production, a broader diversity of housing types, and
affordability that better matches the incomes of area
residents and workers.
As part of this task, LCG will complete the following:
• Analyze population and employment trends,
with documentation of projections.
• Quantify existingand projected housing needs
for all income levels, including extremely
low-income households, withdocumentation
of housing and household characteristics, and
cost-burdened households.
Collect data on type, size, cost, and age of
housing in the city.Collect data on rental
properties (e.g., type, size, cost, and age) and
percentage of housing stock.
• Review and evaluate the current housing
element and other policies regarding
housing, including an evaluation ofsuccess
in attaining planned housing types and
units, achievement of goals and policies, and
implementation of the schedule of programs
and actions.
Review the effectiveness of current programs,
development regulations and permitting
processes related to housingdevelopment.
• Review land capacity analysis and ability of
existing zoning to provide for housing needs
and all income brackets.
• Identify areas that may be at higher risk of
displacement from market forces.
• Conduct research and assemble findings
following the most current New Mexico
legislative policies related to housing.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ASSESSMENT
Our partner, LCG, understands development
economics and the market realities of economic
prosperity. Whether operating at the citywide level
or addressing downtown Santa Fe or a specific
neighborhood, we will ensure that goals and policies
pertaining to housingand economic development
are implementable and feasible. Our analysis will
specifically address issues that are relevant to
Santa Fe given its role as a state capital and tourist
destination.
These issues include:
• Preserving and enhancing Santa Fe's cultural
authenticity while capturing economic
opportunities to provide family wage jobs to
its residents;
• Enhancing and sustaining the downtown as a
community amenity and economic driver;
• Nimbly navigating rapidly changing
economic trends in ecommerce and industrial
development to maximize joband investment
opportunities;
Understanding the role that affordable
housing plays in maintaining an economically
competitive city; and
• Other issues and strategies that emerge from
the community visioning process.
As with the population and demographic trends
analysis completed earlier, we will prepare a
thorough baseline data set that tells the story of
Santa Fe's current economy, where it has been, and
where its future opportunities lie.This workwill
include a detailed assessment of:
• Employment trends;
• Major industries and employers;
• Key opportunities for job creation and
growth;
• Key indicators such as education, wages,
unemployment, industry clusters, and other
data points; and
• Emerging trends that impact economic
vitality such as the rise of ecommerce,
demand for warehousing and distribution,
work-from-home impacts on office demand,
and the role that housing unaffordability
plays on business recruitment and success.
ENVIRONMENT STEWARDSHIP/
NATURAL RESOURCES
Santa Fe's General Plan developed in 1999
supports the overall message of Natural Resource
Conservation of the time, however, in 2023 these
ideas have evolved and grown. The City of Santa Fe
is an environmentallyfriendly community, and it is
imperative that the city is prepared to adapt to the
protection and conservation of biological and natural
resources, visual resources, natural landscapes, and
landmarks. Doingso will aid the City of Santa Fe to be
more environmentally conservative andconscious.
Biological and habitat conversation has grown, with
our ever-evolving world, to include permitting,
management, and mitigation of natural resources,
clean waters, visual and sound responses, threatened
and endangered species, air quality, and how the
public is responding to these changing challenges.
A review of existing natural resource management,
conservation policies and plans identified by the
City of Santa Fe (quality of life and sustainable
growth) will provide WSP with a solid base of the
community's ideas and initiatives to expand the
growth of environmental stewardship and natural
resources management.

INSTITUTIONAL STRUCTURES
The new plan must foster regional collaboration,
represent a wide and diverse-cross section of
residents and be ready to be implemented to address
the challenges the Santa Fe region faces todayand
may face tomorrow. The updated plan needs to
foster collaboration among all of the parties who are
under its umbrella - both its regional partners and
internal agencies and departments. It should make
the region's goals and vision - and the corresponding
projects that would flow from those goals and visions
- so clear, understandable, and actionable that Santa
Fe will become a stronger candidate for many of
the discretionary federal funding programs that are
flowing from the recently passed infrastructure and
climate bi1ls.
However, a plan is really just paper on the shelf
unless the parties responsible for making it a
reality have agreed to the overarching goals; a clear
\ \ '-. I ) Truly Comprehensive I Inclusive EngagementI tmpactful Innovations I FutureReady I Immediately Implementable (66)

delineation of roles and responsibilities; and there
is agreement about how decisions will be made.
We know that Santa Fe is looking for a plan that
can- in practical and real-world terms - address
the community's challenges. Therefore, we believe
that it is essential to develop buy-in and get the
processes right on the front-end - it is better to
take the time to define goals and objectives so
there is clear understanding of where the process
needs to go than to start searching for solutions
that do not necessarily meet the ultimate goals of
the city. We look forward to working with Santa Fe
and its partners and stakeholders on a process that
guides the development of the General Plan update
and improves collaboration and decision making
among the regional entities who are crucial to
the city's success and within the internal agencies
and departments who are responsible for the
development and delivery of the city's plans and
programs.
First, the key regional players and stakeholders
must be brought together to agree upona shared
vision and goals that will inform their collaborative
regional approach to problems. Solutions rarely end
at convenient political boundaries, and we need
to ensure that the region is working in a unified
manner to set goals and priorities. As part of the
process, we could also explore current decision-
making structures and recommend improvements
or enhancements as appropriate. We will workwith
the Santa Fe Project Manager to identify the key
stakeholders, but recognize that this should include
local, regional, state, and federal agencies who are
essential to deliveringfunding and projects.
Second, it is also essential that all relevant Santa Fe
agencies and departments are alsoworking from a
common understanding to ensurethat the vision
is at the forefront and remains implementable and
actionable. There are various keydepartments, such
as Public Utilities, Public Works, Community and
Economic Development, and Community Health and
Safety that have a role in determining which projects
can and should move forward in the city. We want to
work with the departments to make sure that from a
capital planning and programming perspective, there
is a common agreement with and appreciation of the
goals of the process, so that everyone understands
Response to Specificat1ons I C
the direction that the city wants to go in and
decisions are made through that lens.
Third, developing a governance model is not just an
end-product to be used, there needs to be a process
to manage the actual preparation of the update to
the General Plan.
• How will decisions be made?
• How will competing interests be prioritized?
How will voices be heard and decisions be
made?
As part of the process, we will partner with Santa
Fe to ensure an inclusive process that delivers an
updated General Plan that meets the goals of the
community and can then be actedupon.
DIGITAL USER PLATFORM
WSP proposes the development of a digital spatial
platform to be the main gateway for stakeholders
and the public to access mapping related information
from the General Plan Update. Additionally, the
platform will feature a dedicated engagement section
(sometimes referred to as online civic engagement),
strategically positioned as the hub for digital
interactions related to the Planning Department.
This section will facilitate public input, and surveys,
fostering a sense of community involvement in the
planning process. The integration of interactive
tools, such as mapping widgets and comment
features, will enable users to provide feedback
directly on the platform, ensuring a more inclusive
and participatory approach to city planning. The
primary objective is to streamline access to key
spatial information, enhance communication, and
promote transparency.
The heart of this solution liesin the development
of a user-friendly online portal that serves as the
digital gateway to the General Plan. Leveraging
Esri's cutting-edge GIS capabilitiest our platform will
provide an intuitive and visually engaging interface
for users to explore the General Plan in a spatial
context. Users, including city staff, stakeholders, and
the public, will have the ability to navigate through
different layers of information1 accessing key
details related to land use, infrastructure,and socio-
economic data.

PLATFORM ARCHITECTURE
The platform will be built using an ArcGIS Hub Site
connected to the city's existing ArcGIS Online or
Portal instance. This setup will allow the city to share
web maps and applications highlighting key aspects
of the GPU and other planning related data along
with a mechanism to share spatial datasets with
stakeholders. Key aspects of the development of the
Hub site include the creation of the hub site itself,
a web mapping application to view the GPU and
other spatialdata layers, and a data portal for users
to access and download specific data layers from
the city.This innovative platform.aims to enhance
transparency, collaboration, and engagement among
staff, stakeholders, and the public, while providing
robust backend capabilities for efficient management
by the Planning Department. On the backend,
our proposed solution includes a robust, ArcGIS
Dashboard designed specifically for City staff. This
interface will empower staff members to run reports,
analyze engagement data, and manage the platform
efficiently. The backend system will be equipped
with advanced reporting tools, data visualization
capabilities, and user management features to
streamline administrative tasks and enhance the
overall effectiveness of the Planning Department's
operations. To achieve this, WSP will undertake key
tasks:
PRELIMINARY DATA AND SYSTEM ASSESSMENT
First, an in-depth assessment of the existing
system will be conducted to evaluate the current
infrastructure,spatial datasets, stakeholder
needs, and future goals of the site. Includedin this
assessment will be determining how eJdsting city
datasets will be migrated into the platform at the
parcel level. Collaborating closely with the planning
department, WSP will gather requirements and
define clear goals for the Hub site.The process will
involve interviews with planning department staff
and benchmarking against industry best practices.
Based on the assessment, WSP willgain insights into
the department's unique needs.
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
Following the needs assessment, WSP will create
a strategic, phased roadmap for the Hub site and
Response to Specificatiohs I Ci
spatial data management within the department.
This roadmap will guide the development of key data
layers and the Hubsite,ensuring that the GIS system
is developed in a way that provides lasting value to the
cityand supports its long-term visionfor developing
and sharing planningrelated spatial data, within the
budget available for the General Plan Update.
DEVELOPMENT OF THE HUB SITE
AND MAPPING APPLICATIONS
Next, the design and development process will
commence, ensuring that thesite is user-friendly,
secure, and efficient. Regular communication
with department staff will be key to ensuring
development is responsive to evolving needs. By
establishing this central portal, both city staff and
the public willbenefit from improved access to
essential information, fostering a more informed and
engaged community.
Several of the maps currently available on the city's
GIS Services and Products website could be combined
into a parcel and zoning application, which would
give members of the public a single-stop application
for viewing essential property details such as the situs
address, Assessor's Parcel Number (APN), assessed
value, zoning classification, land use information,
planning zone updates, and demographics based on
Esri Tapestry Segmentation data.Customized pop-
ups will contain links to the city's other information
systems, such as tax cards or assessor's databases as
appropriate. The aim of this application is to enhance
efficiency and improve public interactions with
parcel and zoning related data.
DATA UPDATE AND LINKING
The development of a Hub site andprimary mapping
application are only useful insofar as the underlying
data is of high quality and is kept current. To achieve
this, several key actions will be taken. First, WSP will
review existing workflows to make sure that the data
layers feeding the applications are maintained and
current.This will be done in a way that minimizes
disruptions to the city's existing work:flows by
automating data transfers or data enrichment as
much as possible.
Second, integrating data from different sources is
crucial for maintaining consistency. WSP will design
\ ' I ) '1hlly Comprehensive I Inclusive Engagement I lrnpactful Innovations I Future Ready IImmediately Implementable [68)
City of Santa Fe Generat l-11an update
mechanisms to synchronize parcel and zoning data
seamlessly. For example, when a property undergoes
rezoning, the app will reflect this change promptly
within the attributes of the parcel data and/or
web application popups relatedto a given parcel.
Similarly, any modifications to parcel boundaries or
land use classifications will be synchronized across
relevant systems to the e.rlent feasible,
Third, quality assurance measures will be
implemented to validate the accuracy of updated
data. This includes cross-referencinginformation
with official records, conducting spot checks, and
flagging discrepancies promptly. Thegoa] is to
provide reliable data to city staff, developers, and the
public, ensuring informed decision-making.
finally, WSP will explore opportunities to link
related datasets beyond parcel and zoning data.
For instance, integrating property tax records with
parcel information can enhance financial planning
and revenue forecasting. Similarly, connecting
zoning data with environmental factors (e.g., flood
zones, soil quality) can inform land use decisions.
Byprioritizing data accuracy, synchronization,and
integration, WS:P aims to create a robust foundation
for future applications and informed urban planning
within the City of Santa Fe.
EXPAND FOR ADDITIONAL APPS IN THE FUTURE
WSP recognizes the need for scalability and
adaptability in the City of Santa Fe's digital
infrastructure.To prepare for future applications,
WSP proposes that the Hub site be designed with
flexibility in mind. Its architecture will allow for
seamless integration of new mapping applications
and features. By utilizing an ArcGIS Hub site and the
city's existing ArcGIS Online and/or Portal instances
the site can accommodate diverse functionalities
without locking the cityinto the use of custom
applications. Additional applications or sections
of the Hub site can be introduced as needed to
expand functionality and address new audiences.
By adopting these principles, WSP aims to create a
future-ready digital ecosystem that supports the City
of Santa Fe's growth and enhances public services.
By combining Esri technology with a user-centric
design and comprehensive backend functionality,
Response to Specifications I Ci
our proposed digital platform is poised to elevate the
city's planning process, making it more accessible,
engaging, and efficient for all stakeholders involved.
PUBLICENGAGEMENTPLAN
From our staff's participation in community
organizations to our planning and design work, WSP
has built strong connections with small businesses
and community relationships over the many years
we have worked in and aroundSanta Fe.
Our team's approach seeks to incorporate community
voices throughout the planning process to develop
a vision that strives for equitable and sustainable
policy choices that result in a vibrant and vital
future for Santa re. As a local firm and with our
communications and public involvement lead living
and working in nearby Albuquerque, WSP is deeply
invested in New Mexico communities, including
Santa Fe and its diverse neighborhoods. Our team's
approach is Inclusive, imaginative, interactive, and
centered on building relationships with community
partners (CBOs). Our approach focuses on forming
neighborhood-specific engagement efforts to put
community first and elevate the voices of those
historically underserved or excluded from planning
processes. To truly co-create a general plan with the
community, we will complete the following steps,
which are further defined in the subtasks that follow:
• Prepare a Public Engagement Planand equity
strategy that outlines open, transparent, and
multi-path communication to engage equity-
priority communities, key interested parties,
and the broader community.
• Include equity throughout the process by
working with the community to develop an
equityanalysis. Establishing equity goals will
help guide the planning process and support
equitable outcomes.
• Form a network of compensated Community
Partners to lead neighborhood-specific
engagement approaches.
• Develop a project-specific brand identity and
communications materials, includingcreating
a Social Pinpoint Hub to advance the City's
engagement efforts.
• Engage the broader community through
\ \ ' I ) Tl'uly Comprehensive I Inclusive Engagement f lmpaetful Innovations I Future Ready I Immediately lmplementable(69)
City of Santa Fe Genera1 Plan update
visioning workshops, events, and community
conversations.
• Prepare a community engagement and
involvement/lessonslearned summary
and accountability matrix that captures all
comments, evaluations, lessons learned,
and input throughout the process.This will
contribute to the City's future efforts and
support long-term capacity building.
COMMUNITY PARTNERS
A key aspect of our engagement approach is
developing relationships with Community Partners
to provide consistent and meaningful input
through all stages of the planning process. To
identify the Community Partners, we will focus
on the neighborhoods and districts identified
and outlined in Step 1. Community Partners will
be considered based on an examination of the
existing neighborhood associations and networks,
community-based organizations operatingon
the ground, potential growth areas, and the need
to include voices that have historically been
excluded from planning processes. We anticipate
approximately ten to fifteen Community Partners
being identified to help the project team better
pinpoint distinct community characteristics and
challenges from a grassroots level. Working with
Community Partners who understand the Santa
Fe tradition and historical and current challenges

including equity representatives, to participate.
Community Partners will be selected and
compensated (compensation to be determined
based on PEP and is funded separately of this project
budget) based on their relationships and ability to
represent and engage equity-priority communities
and elevate their voices. The Community Partner
selection process and compensation plan will be
defined with the City at Project Kickoff in Step 1.
esponse to Specifications I C.
With the support of the public engagement team
lead, the Community Partners will be responsible
for leading outreach meetings or events, framed
as "Community Conversations,"in each of the
neighborhoods.The Community Partners will
help ensure communication materials are written
in layperson's terms, use language and graphical
communication appropriate to the audience, and
meet the City's standards.
With the help of the Community Partners, we will
seek perspectives that represent diverse interests
and groups such as:
• Modes of transportation(pedestrian, ADA
interests, bicycle, public transit, freight,
automobile)
• BIPOC communities and businesses
• Social justice
Neighborhood associations
Economic development
• Arts and culture
• Urban design
• Environmental quality
• Housing groups and organizations
• Youth, LGBTQ+, and elder perspectives
• Accessibility and disability inclusivity
INTEGRATING EQUITY
To enhance our approach to existing conditions, the
equity team will identify equity focused communities
in Santa Fe and assess their baseline, the distance
between their baseline and vision, and the
priorities of their vision. We understand that equity
communities often experience underrepresentation,
underinvestment, being overburdened, and less
resiliency to neighborhood change, and the legacy
impacts of these experience maylead to a different
baseline, vision, and priorities than greater Santa
Fe. We also recognize the value of culture, economic
contributions,diversity of thought, and other
characteristics that define equity communities
beyond disparities or disadvantages. First, we will
review local resources provided by City Staff and
conduct our own research to produce an equity
analysis that identifies equitycommunities. This
includes a quantitative element like data indicators,
using tools like USDOT Transit Disadvantaged

Communities and the Climate and Economic
Justice Screening, and a qualitative element that
summarizes local historical context that contributed
to existing conditions, and public input on their lived
experiences with current infrastructure,and related
programs, and policies.
The equity team will collaborate with the public
engagement team to leverage the equity analysis
and the requested Neighborhoods and Districts Map
to inform a neighborhood-level public engagement
plan. Neighborhood-level public engagement will
capture insight specifically from equity communities
to develop a Neighborhood Equitable Vision &
Needs Assessment. Inclusive public engagement
and meeting people where they are will allow us
to empower and amplify diverse voices, including
the Asian, Black, Hispanic, Spanish, and Native
communities, as well as Santa Fe's thriving arts
community. The assessment will address key areas
of quality of life including housing, economic
development, transportation, public safety, parks
and recreation, and other themes consistent with
the broader existing conditions work.The input will
be organized into near, mid, and long-term goals
so the City can plan for quick wins and long-term
commitments that will build public trust.
Based on community conversations and our own
research, the equity team will develop a community
assets map layer that can be overlayed on the
Neighborhoods and Districts Map. Community
assets can include places of worship, green spaces,
community centers, public art. libraries, health care
facilities, and more that offer sense of belonging,
livability, and comfort. Mapping community assets
can identify places and spaces to preserve and show
gaps in these offerings in some neighborhoods
compared to others. The City can use this data to
support development without displacement, create
connected infrastructure leveraging existing nodes,
and prioritize funding.
The equity team will play an advisory role in public
engagement. For example, the equity analysis will
allow us to set a goal for representative participation
in public engagement based on the diversity in the
Santa Fe. This will help set a success metric beyond
the volume of engagement efforts. The equity team
will make recommendations of community leaders
and organizations that represent equity communities
and guide the structure for their compensation. They
will also coordinate with the technical team on what
content to share with the community, a format for
that content that is equitably understood, and follow-
up post-event to ensure input is used in refinement
and decision-making.
Building an equitable, comprehensive planrequires.
more than just looking at maps and data. To truly
plan for an equitable future, we need to understand
the history and experiences of the people who live,
work, and playin each of Santa Fe's neighborhoods.
Effective coordination between technical team
members and inclusive communication strategies,
and frequent input and review from WSP's embedded
equity experts will coordinate timing of inputs,
balancing of opinions and development of equitable
policies that will inform our planning team's
work. This collaborative work will advise project
staff on community priorities and identify areas
of improvement such as inclusive playgrounds,
disadvantaged business opportunities, or affordable
housing.
Specific efforts that WSP will include to integrate
equity include:
• Advising on Community Partners to engage
from equitycommunities, ensuring inclusion
of populations of people of color (e.g.,
Asian, Black, Hispanic, Spanish1 and Native/
Indigenous communities)
• Provide content for community input (equity
goals, equity analysis map, equity community
asset map, etc.)
• Coordinate with the public engagement team
on deliberate outreach to develop the Equity
Community Needs Assessment.

ENGAGEMENT TOOLS
Duringpreparation of the Public Engagement
Plan, WSP will work with the City to identify
communications and engagement strategies
and tools that clearly communicate the project
goals, relay technical information, and provide
opportunities to meaningfully influence the process,
analysis, and recommendations.WSP will work
with the City to determine the specific outreach
activities that are needed at each project milestone in
coordination with the technical work. At a minimum,
we recommend the following:
• WSP will establish a multi-disciplinary,
interactive platform through Social Pinpoint
that will act as the public engagement hub
for the project. This Social Pinpoint Hub will
include opportunities for community members
to provide input,stay up to dateon the project,
and team members to communicate project
information in a graphically articulate way.
• Preparation of Community Conversation Kits
that Community Partners can use to facilitate
discussions, use at community events, or
distribute while traveling around town or
riding transit.These Kits may include project
factsheets, keyquestions and answers, and
instructions on how to facilitate the collection
of valuable feedback at places people already
frequent.
Understanding that not everyone canattend a
public meeting or receive a letter in the mail,
we will workwith our Community Partners
to account for the needs of various interested
parties and apply area appropriate methods
to obtain community input on aspects of the
planning process.
• Visioning workshops and openhouses, an
interactive idea boardthrough the Social
Pinpoint Hub,and project team tables at
existing Cityandcommunity events to inform
the overall community vision and vision
statements for each comprehensive plan
element.
• Surveys and polls to gather feedback about
specific topics as identified by the project team
and City staff.
PROJECT MATERIALS & BRAND IDENTITY
WSP will create a project brand and messaging that
will be used throughout the project to provide a
consistent graphic identityon all publicly distributed
materials including the Social Pinpoint Hub,
Community Conversation Kits, notices of events and
meetings, and other materials that will promote the
project, inform the community, and build consensus.
All outreach materials will meet Cityof Santa Fe
standards and will be developed in accordance with
the City's Public Engagement Guide. All outreach
materials will also be ADA-accessible, use better
practices for design and graphical communication,
and be made available in both English and Spanish.
Other language needs may be identified through the
Public Engagement Plan process.

LISTENING, LEARNING, & REPORTING BACK
The feedback received throughout the public
engagement process will be tracked by the project
team in an Accountability Matrix, which will be used
over the course of the project to record decisions
and actions taken to address feedback, if any. The
community feedback will be used in the reporting
and analysis of key project documents as identified
throughout the project lifecycle. All engagement
activities will also be tracked and at the end of the
project, an engagement summary, with insights and
lessons learned, will be finalized. The Accountability
Matrix will be included in the engagement summary
to ensure transparency and accountability of
the project team, and to help inform the City's
future engagement efforts. Engagement findings
will be incorporated intoTask 5 efforts to ensure

STEP 2: VISION AND GOALS
COMPLETE STREETS OR COMPLETE
CORRIDORS?
Which is right for Santa Fe? Is the answer guided by
context or feasibility? Whatcan be accomplished in
the short, medium, and long term?These questions
make citywide planning fun, exciting, and
meaningful.
With the benefit of a common baseline of
understanding, the work begins to develop a
vision for Santa Fe and goals to attainin realizing
the vision. A vision is a high-level narrative and
graphic communication of a future desiredstate.
It should be brief, akin to a brochure. Goals are
aspirational statements that guide the development
of policies and implementation actions. The vision
and goals will also be used to compare and evaluate
the scenarios in Step 3. Conciseness is important
to ensure that the General Plan is digestible and
implementable.General Plans that represent lengthy
wish lists are unwieldy to administer and sit on
the shelf.
WSP will reference the General Plan Update Initiation
Governing Body Resolution, the Assessment Report
from Step 1 and the internal project team charrette
to identify initial guiding themes to prepare an
administrate draft vision and goals. Conceptual
placetype groups will also be prepared to support
creating an early1 structured framework to support
developing the vision and goals. A public review
draft of the vision and goals will then be deployed
pursuant to the Public Engagement Plan. Input from
public engagement will then be used to refine and
finalize the visionand goals. Planning Commission
and Governing Body review will conclude this step
as the stage gate prior to beginning Step 3, Scenario
Planning.

STEP 3: SCENARIO PLANNINC
SANTA FE SCENARIOS
Di/ferent Potential Futures for Everyone Today and
Tomorrow That Pull Forward an Indigenous Past
1: Corridors of Mobility: key corridors
that could receive new housing and
economic diversificationto also support
complete corridors, increasing ridership and
competitivenessfor funding robust transit
2. Centers of Opportunity: with Midtown as
an initial guide, identifying additional centers
throughout the City and exploring refinements to
the historic downtown area
3: Restoration for Resiliency: emphasizing
existing and degraded or lost natural systems
to guide a resiliency framework, deepening the
City's connection to nature for a sustainable and
resilient future
Could these be the scenarios? Will the preferred plan
be one scenario or a mix of all three? The process of
technical study and engagement will ultimately guide
the appropriate scenarios to create, develop, study,
engage and select a preferred future.
Understanding different potential futures and the
tradeoffs between those means that each scenario
would emphasize different themes while maintaining
fidelity to the vision and goals. Each concept is
assessed against the project principles to provide a
basis for evaluation and comparison.
CHART was and remains a highly important moment
in the City's long history. The General Plan Update
will be informed by outcomes of CHART. The
University of New Mexico Indigenous Design and
Planning Institute is a potential academic resource
to tap for this project. While the Spanish Laws of

of Santa Fe, what is less known is the influence of
local indigenous populations on Santa Fe before the
Spanish period Understanding and incorporating
indigenous cultural influence on urban design
represents a tremendous opportunity to uncover
repressed history and further Santa Feas the City
Different.
For the internal project team charrette, WSP
will identify six thematic scenarios described in
brief narrative form to facilitate discussion. As a
standalone document, WSP will develop the initial
higher order groups of placetypes. The WSP team will
thendevelop three conceptual, thematic scenarios
with placetypes applied to illustrate graphically and
narratively a description of each scenario. WSP will
also quantitativelyand qualitatively characterize
the scenarios again(vision, goals, and assessment
report) along with public input. Modeling is possible
as a separate, optional task, which can be developed,
should the process suggest a particular modeling
exercise be needed.
As transportationand land-use planning become
more and more complex, the need for better
planning tools grows. Communities, stakeholders
and decision-makersare demanding robust analysis
these days. System dynamics helps teams organize
complex trends and better understand their
interrelationships.Wesee manytransportation
agencies immediately jump to travel demand
modelling (TOM) for the right answers, and
unfortunately it rarely works out.TOM is great for
understanding car, truckand transit travel patterns
basedon a fixed set of assumptions, but the quality
of those assumptions is key; so, there must first be
greater understanding and consensus around the
assumptions that become input for the models.
The WSP Scenario Planning Toolbox enables
decision-makers to test how different assumptions
can impact cities and places around the world. The
interactive system dynamics analysis tool, which
can be adapted to local and regional conditions,
allows multidisciplinary teams to collaborate on
the interrelationships of trends for improved
understanding, consensus- building and decision-
making in the development scenarios.

infrastructure will be necessary to support each
scenario. In terms of connectivity technologles, the
team will explore shared connectivity means to
ensure a reliable and high-speed data transmission
infrastructure with clear return on investment
or linked to enabling outcomes. This may involve
recommending the upgrade of existing connectivity
infrastructureto support the increased data loads

can enhance daily life to address aspects such as
improved public services, increased engagement,
safety, and access to information in real-time.
Depending on the desires of the City, the team
will identify and specify the necessary technology
components & systems-e.g., connected sensors,
data networks, and loT Devices-to support the
enhanced citizen experience.
The smart city team will strategically apply findings
from the Assessment Report to address the
identified areas of development in City operations
as well. We will identify keyinsights and pinpoint
areas of improvement to define how the City
can enhahce its information sharing landscape
between departments and to its citizens. The
team will develop a roadmap in support of these
improvements, outlining a step-by-step plan for the
phased adoption of related technology solutions.
In essence, the team provides guidance through
the General Plan for realizing citizen-centric and
operational efficiency through smart technologies
by defining the required infrastructure, technology
specifications,and commitments necessary to
transform the urban model of development.
STEP 5: WORK PROGRAM AND
FUNDING PLAN
IF EVERYTHING IS A PRIORITY
THEN NOTHING IS
Being strategic demands setting priorities. The work
program must be prioritized so it can be resourced
with reasonably foreseeable staff availability,
funding, and time. This also enables a programmatic
approach to pursuing the generational federal
funds available today to support accelerating
implementation of the General Plan.
WSP will prepare a prioritized work program and
identify potential local, regional, state, and federal
funding sources to promote its implementation.The
work program will also incorporate an administrative
governance policy framework for City staff to use
in its daily operations to ensure the General Plan
is considered in daily municipal operations and
decision-making,being mindful that New Mexico law
provides that the General Plan is an advisory plan.
Prioritizationis crucial, as the organizational
capacity to undertake the work to implement the
General Plan is significant. General Plans that have
endless pages of action items get ignored. Simplicity,
focus, and prioritization are key.
WSP will produce Equitable Project Development
and Delivery Guidelines to empower the City to pull
the thread of equity into the fruit the General Plan
bears. These project-agnostic guidelines can establish
a consistent city-wide approach to project equity,
regardless of what departments or champions may
lead a project effort. We will also produce a Funding
Program Equity Criteria Index, scanning the most
relevant federal funding programs and compiling
their equity criteria, so if the City is interested in
sourcing federal fundingdirectly, projects definitions
and approach can be proactively aligned for
competitive applications.

waiting at the starting line to implement the plan
and continuously evaluate how it is working-a living
document because it was prepared to be used to

WSP will support City staff in preparing for final
hearings before the Planning Commission, Governing
Body and any other established City advisory body
with preparatory meetings and a PowerPoint
presentation. WSP will attend the one final hearing
each before the Planning Commission and Governing
Body. WSP will advise City staff on monitoring and
