TV Show Auditionsstates that FOX is currently casting series regulars in Los Angeles, one of whom will be 10-year old Bruce Wayne. It's probably safe to assume, based on this news, that Gotham is firmly set in that time period rather than portraying the investigation in flashbacks. Another bit of evidence is TV Show Auditions' story synopsis, which simply states, "Set in the early days of James Gordon's police tenure, when he meets a boy named Bruce Wayne..."
Gotham's pilot begins shooting in March, 2014.

There was a rumor that some of Batman's villain will make appearances in the show but I don't know how that would be possible with a 10 year old Bruce Wayne, maybe Falcone, Penguin or Court of Owls could appear in the show.
