TRANSITIONAL HOUSING STRUCTURES
Proposal Opening May 28, 2026
1.0 ISSUING BODY
This Request for Proposal ("RFP") is being issued by the City of Stockton, Economic
Development Department for the procurement and installation of Transitional Housing
Structures.
2.0 BACKGROUND/SUMMARY
The City of Stockton is interested in proposals for prefabricated transitional housing
structures/tiny homes that can accommodate families. The purpose is to create more
family dwelling capacity, keeping them from homelessness while they await a more
permanent housing solution.
The plan is to create a community setting with as many structures feasible in an
approximate 5-acre area. At this time, the City cannot confirm the exact site for this
project. Because of the undetermined site(s), there is no exact quantity of units for this
project. The goal is that proponents will give us a sense of spacing by estimating the
number of units that may fit on a 5-acre area as an example.
For this community, there are two models being considered:
Model A - self-contained multi-sleeping/bedroom structures, including kitchen and
restroom facilities.
Model B - multi-sleeping areas/bedrooms that are not self-contained. Instead, central
structures would be erected within the property to accommodate restroom and kitchen
facilities in a communal style.
3.0 SCOPE OF WORK
This solicitation requests proposals that fit either or both models. Please be clear in
your proposal in identifying the amenities and pricing relevant to which model (A or B)
that is contained in submittals. The structures should vary in sizes ranging from two to
three+ bedrooms. The City has not yet confirmed plumbing and/or utility plans for this
project, therefore submittals containing solar or battery-powered utilities are also
welcomed.
Contractor will be responsible for delivery and setting of units, thus proposals should
include site requirements, per model type included in submittal.
All structures must meet current California Building Codes for temporary residential
structures.
The building requirements below are being considered for this community:
Manufactured / Factory-Built Housing:
* Must be constructed in compliance with the California Code of Regulations, Title
25, Division 1, Chapter 3.
