to conduct site assessments and planning for the Properties. In addition to experience with site assessments, floodplain planning, landscape architecture, geomorphology, engineering, hydrology, land use and regulatory analyses, and ecological restoration, the consultant should have expertise in facilitating planning processes. The consultant will use the assessments to facilitate a collaborative decision-making process with the Tribe. Demonstrated experience working with Tribes on similar projects is desired. This assessment, planning, and design process will include multiple Tribal departments and organizational levels to ensure the final plan represents Tribal interests holistically. The final product of this process will be conceptual plans, which the Tribe will use to identify funding and move forward to final design, permitting, and construction. Ultimately, conceptual plans should be well-balanced between climate resilient floodplain management and cultural and other preferred land uses for the Properties.
