Lehrer, Town Planner Date: May 16, 2019 Re: 950 Falmouth Road Warping Group Findings Attachment A of the RFP outlined the comparative evaluation criteria to be utilized in the review of any received proposals. In c000rdination with Mr.Allan Isbitz,Chair of the Affordable Housing Committee,I generated scoresheets reflective of the comparative evaluation criteria. Having found that both proposals submitted met the minimum threshold criteria,these score- sheets were utilized to weigh how well and to what degree proposals achieved the Towns vision for the site and how well they responded to the comparative evaluation criteria. Ultimately,our findings showed that the proposal submitted by POAH/HAC showed-considerable experience with the capacity to successfully carry out the development proposed. Further they ad- equately demonstrated their ability to secure financing, and maintain the asset over the long-term. Commonwealth Community Developers,LLC failed to demonstrate in their proposal the expe- rience and capacity that the Town was seeking in a developer of this site. Due to the lack of coni- arable reference 12rojects and lack of a demonstrated ability to secure fznancin far 12rojectof a similar sco e the Working GroW was unable to feel confident in Commonwealth Communit Develoer LLCs abilit to deliver on their ro osed concept on budget and on time. The attached scoring matrix,reference checks,summary of findings, and spreadsheet outlining the primary components of each proposal show the strength and weaknesses of each application. Based on my conversations with PDAH's references,Mashpee would be lucky to collaborate with such a venerated developer on this project if the Trust opts to award the project to them.
