Summary:

14TP048 - Staff requests authorization to release a Request for Proposals for LiDAR, Orthophotography, and Elevation Contours to be collected during the Spring of 2015. The 2015 Unified Planning Work Program, through the Rapid City Area Metropolitan Planning Organization has programmed $200,000 for this project. The RFP is expected to be released on December 16, with the photography collected during April or May of 2015 when conditions are optimal for high quality images.

The largest portion of the funding comes from federal funding through the Transportation Planning program.
