Request for Proposals (RFP): Consultant City Planner & Zoning Administrator Services – City of Greenwood, MN
The City of Greenwood, Minnesota, is currently seeking proposals from qualified professional planning consulting firms or individuals to provide comprehensive Consultant City Planner and Zoning Administrator Services.
Greenwood is a premier, geographically compact residential community located on the shores of Lake Minnetonka.

This role requires an expert with a sophisticated understanding of complex shoreland zoning, variance processes, and
conditional use permits (CUPs). Given the high volume of resident-driven public participation, the ideal candidate must possess an outstanding track record of public diplomacy, demonstrating the ability to represent the City’s regulatory interests firmly and consistently while maintaining a highly tactful, collaborative relationship with our
residents.
