The 30-second brief
193 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in City of Vero Beach's meetings, most in capital projects and parks & recreation. The latest, from Nov 4: At the August 19, 2026 meeting, the Board approved the proposed 2026-2027 budget with a revision to include $25,000 for the auditor. The board had already voted to pursue an independent auditor, so this item reserved funding for that work. It was a budget allocation tied to the audit project rather than a separate procurement. The amount was added before the RFP proposals were reviewed on October 6, 2026.
Capital Projects leads its tracked contracts and projects, followed by Public Works and Environmental Services.
