Announcement: RFP for Historical Preservation Planning Support

The Town of Westford, acting through its Historical Commission, is seeking
consultant support to assist with implementation of portions of the 2009
Comprehensive Master Plan. A key Action Item in the Comprehensive Master
Plan is to expand the Westford Historical Commission’s role in town
planning, with a supporting Action Item to consider hiring a part-time
preservation planner who could also serve as staff for the Historical
Commission.

In March 2012, Westford Town Meeting voters allocated Community
Preservation Act (CPA) funding to enable the Commission to retain, through
a competitive RFP process, a consultant to provide dedicated support to
the Commission, and to advance one or more specific policy initiatives.
The Historical Commission is issuing this Request for Proposal from
qualified individuals or consulting firms to provide the scope of services
listed in detail under Scope of Work. 

Request for Proposals packages are available at the Town of Westford,
