Howard Park RFQ
Pre-submittal Meeting
September 11, 2018
Question: Is the service of the meeting rooms and other parts of the park part of the contract?
Answer: We intentionally kept this requirement vague because we want to hear from the possible
vendors what their ideas and interests are. This arrangement can be negotiated as the business
arrangement is developed.
Q: Aesthetically, what vision do you have for the space?
A: We envision it as a four seasons space. The park is a space for everybody, so it should also have an
inclusive feel. The park is one of South Bend’s premier parks and the hub of the riverfront trail. It will be
a large contributor to the East Bank Village area of activity.
Q: What is the expectation for collaborating with the operator on capital? Is that negotiable or a set
number?
A: The RFQ states that there is a required build-out contribution by the operator; however, the RFQ
process is about finding the right partner so terms are negotiable.
