BACKGROUND:

Camden County is located in southeastern Georgia and is approximately 613 square miles in land area,

making Camden County the 7th largest county in the State of Georgia. Neighboring counties include

Brantley County and Glynn County to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, Charlton County to the

west, and Nassau County, Florida to the south. In 2022, Camden County’s population was roughly 57,000

citizens, which is a 12.5% increase in population growth from 2010 to 2022. Of the county’s current

population, 30% reside in the unincorporated area with 70% residing in the municipalities. Overall

population density in Camden is 89.3 people per square mile.

Project Description

Camden County is soliciting Request for Proposal (RFP) from qualified firm(s) or organization(s) to

provide CONSULTANT services for the Camden County Joint Comprehensive Transportation Plan. For

the Camden County Joint Comprehensive Transportation Plan to be successful, it is imperative that the

CONSULTANT work closely and in partnership with the Georgia Department of Transportation

(GDOT) throughout the entirety of this project. GDOT's expertise and insights are invaluable to the

success of the Camden County Joint Comprehensive Transportation Plan. Prioritizing collaboration and

partnership with GDOT without delay is essential for receiving their buy-in and blessing on the proposed

plan. Alignment and coherence with GDOT transportation strategies and initiatives is crucial.

This Request for Proposals (RFP) seeks to identify potential providers for the services. Firms that

respond to this RFP and are determined by Camden County to be sufficiently qualified may be deemed

eligible. All respondents to this RFP are subject to instructions communicated in this document and are

cautioned to completely review the entire RFP and follow instructions carefully. Camden County

reserves the right to reject any or all Request for Proposals and to waive technicalities and

3

informalities at the discretion of Camden County.

SCOPE:

The selected firm(s) or organization(s) will perform various planning-related tasks in accordance with

the minimum Scope of Work for the Joint Comprehensive

SUPPLEMENTAL TASK:

CAMDEN COUNTY JOINT COMPREHENSIVE TRANSPORTATION PLAN SCOPE OF WORK

SECTION 1 PROJECT INITIATION

Immediately following receipt of Notice to Proceed, the CONSULTANT will hold an informal kickoff meeting

with Camden County to set expectations for the schedule, communication protocols, product deliverables, and

project coordination. The CONSULTANT will then use that input toward preparation of a Project Management

Plan (PMP).

The PMP will also identify those specific mechanisms that will be used for project coordination. A Project

Management team will be identified that will likely include County and City staff, and the CONSULTANT. The

PM Team will meet regularly, perhaps every other month, or as agreed upon.

The PMP will also identify the specific mechanisms and responsibilities for involving each of Camden County’s

cities throughout the Camden County Joint Comprehensive Transportation Plan (JCTP). The CONSULTANT

will identify assigned “City liaisons” from the CONSULTANT team to work with each of Camden’s cities so

every city’s needs and issues are addressed in the JCTP Update. They will be available to each City to answer

questions or retrieve information and will communicate with the designated City contact on a regular basis to

review status and identify any specific issues or ideas to be considered.

The CONSULTANT will develop a preliminary set of goals for the JCTP, by using recent studies, evolving

federal planning and funding initiatives, and local knowledge. This preliminary set will provide a basis for

defining the JCTP to involved parties and for initial startup documents.

The CONSULTANT will document a specific plan for community outreach and involvement in a Public

Involvement Plan (PIP). The specific strategies and tools identified for use will seek to implement the notion

that “Every Citizen Counts”, by seeking to include some avenue for outreach and input across a diverse

citizenry. The PIP will utilize online tools and the use of social media, as well as informal, small group meetings

to reach out to stakeholders. While traditional public meetings and a project web site will be used, the

CONSULTANT will also utilize a Stakeholder Committee and stakeholder interviews. This will allow for

greater involvement from representatives of a diverse cross-section of community groups, such as:

 Institutions

 Business community leaders

 Other Camden County or City departments and initiatives

 Neighborhood groups

 Special-interest groups

Deliverables:

 Kickoff meeting

 Project Management Plan (draft and final, 10 copies each)

 Preliminary JCTP Transportation Goals

 Identification of Project Management Team

 Public Involvement Plan (draft and final, 10 copies each)

 Launch initial project web site

SECTION 2 INVENTORY AND ASSESSMENT OF EXISTING CONDITIONS

The CONSULTANT will complete an inventory and analysis of existing conditions and trends. Necessary data is

readily available from Camden County, and Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT). The CONSULTANT

will obtain, review and summarize this data, including:

 Roadway physical conditions

 Traffic volumes, congested locations and crash history.

 Adopted networks.

 Mobility routes.

 Bicycle facilities and plans

 Planned Airport

 Past, current and future growth.

 Planned and programmed transportation improvements – from County and City capital improvement

programs.

 Implementation of previous plans.

 Past and present funding for capital, as well as for maintenance and operations – from Camden County

and City data.

In addition to the data listed above, the CONSULTANT will conduct a Data Meeting with County and City staff

to discuss data sources and availability. The primary purposes of this meeting will be to identify pertinent data,

identify any gaps in available data, and identify the appropriate means of obtaining that data. The

CONSULTANT must also invite and seek to include staff from GDOT.

In addition to empirical data, the CONSULTANT will also inventory and analyze citizen and stakeholder

opinions and views as part of the analysis of existing conditions through two primary tasks – stakeholder

interviews and a public opinion poll, as described in the PIP. Up to 50 stakeholder interviews will be conducted.

The CONSULTANT will obtain, review and summarize this information in an Existing Conditions Technical

Memorandum. Data will be summarized in tables, graphs and maps to the greatest extent practicable rather than
