Summary
Planning staff told the Cultural Heritage Commission the city has an RFP open for objective design standards and an ADU program; staff also said City Hall will be open five days a week beginning in October and noted an upcoming Public Art Commission meeting.
City planning staff told the South Pasadena Cultural Heritage Commission on Sept. 18 that the city has issued a request for proposals to develop objective design standards and an accessory-dwelling-unit (ADU) program with prototype designs. The staff member said the RFP closes at the end of the month and the city hopes to select a consultant by November.
The staff announcement also said that City Hall will be open five days a week starting in October; staff said the department is working to ensure services and public notifications (including signage) accommodate the change. Finally, the staff speaker reminded commissioners that the Public Art Commission will present a draft public art policy manual at its upcoming meeting, indicating an opportunity for commissioners or the public to review that work.
No formal commission action was taken on these administrative items; the announcements were informational. The transcript does not include the RFP text, consultant selection criteria or detailed implementation steps beyond the projected timeline for selection by November.
