Project Description

NEW ORLEANS REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY (NORA)

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP)

PROPERTY MAINTENANCE SERVICES

ISSUE DATE: MONDAY, AUGUST 17, 2026

DUE DATE: WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2026

The New Orleans Redevelopment Authority (NORA) works to redevelop and revitalize the City of New Orleans. Equipped with broad legal authorities, including the power to expropriate blighted properties, NORA works in partnership with the City of New Orleans, local organizations, businesses, neighborhoods, and citizens to implement comprehensive neighborhood and commercial corridor redevelopment plans.

With these responsibilities, NORA has a large inventory of properties that require regular maintenance (grass cutting, lot clearing, and debris removal). Properties that are the subject of this RFP include:

• LLT Properties Transferred to NORA: In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, the State of Louisiana created the Louisiana Land Trust (LLT) as the receiver of properties acquired from homeowners through the Road Home Program. In 2012, LLT transferred approximately 3,000+ Orleans Parish properties (“Road Home Properties” or “Properties”) from its inventory to NORA. This number has been decreased as NORA disposed of them through its property disposition programs and there remains approximately 703 of these properties in NORA’s inventory.
• NORA Properties: Currently NORA owns approximately 170 properties that NORA has acquired over the years through expropriation, adjudication, long-term lease and donation.
• Other properties as identified by NORA.

NORA desires to contract with multiple contractors to provide the lawn and yard maintenance on these properties on a routine or as needed basis and requests proposals from experienced property maintenance companies to provide the services needed.

A copy of the RFP may be downloaded from the NORA website at www.noraworks.org , or by contacting Audrey Plessy, Procurement Manager at (504) 658-4402, or via email at Audrey.Plessy@nola.gov .

Pre-Submission Meeting: A Pre-Submission Meeting will be held online via Zoom on Wednesday, September 2, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. (CDT). Prospective respondents are encouraged to attend. During this meeting, NORA staff will review the submission requirements, discuss the scope of work, and answer questions.

During the period between the issuance of this RFP and the proposal due date, no oral interpretation of the RFP requirements will be provided to any prospective Offeror.  All questions and requests for interpretation must be submitted in writing to Audrey.Plessy@nola.gov .  The deadline for submitting questions is Thursday, September 10, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. (CST). NORA will respond to written questions submitted via email before the due date and time. Answers to questions will be issued in the form of an addendum.

NORA will not accept responses submitted by fax. Respondents must submit their proposal electronically through a Microsoft OneDrive shared folder. Responses delivered after the deadline will not be considered.

All proposals must be uploaded to an assigned shared folder no later than WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 2026, at 2:00 P.M. (CDT).

NORA will award contracts resulting from this solicitation to the responsible Offeror or Offerors whose proposal, conforming to the solicitation, will be most advantageous, considering price and other technical factors. NORA reserves the right to award a contract without negotiations, to make multiple awards, to make no award, or to decline negotiations if it is determined that no respondent can deliver the required level of service within an acceptable price range and/or timeframe.
