Attention, developers: If you can build a “signature restaurant” with “significant public space” at the former Wildflower site, the city wants your plans.

    City officials issued a “request for lease proposals” Sept. 13 for the 2.3 acres that once was the site of a noisy after-hours restaurant at the northwest base of the Palmetto Park Bridge.

    The new restaurant will have to provide “an exceptional and attractive waterfront experience complementary to the city’s adjacent downtown and in keeping with its overall vision,” according to the RFLP.

    Responses must be filed by 3 p.m. Nov. 8. 

    Officials will vet the proposals and plan to present them to the City Council in early December.

    Council members decided this spring that doing something with the land was their highest priority of the year. The city bought the parcel in 2009 for $7.5 million.
