The 30-second brief
22 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in Big Stone County's meetings, most in transportation and environmental services. The latest, from Oct 6: In the work session after adjournment, Pam Rud said she was working with the building owners and Prairie 5 on a solution to repair the concrete pad in front of the local food shelf building. This is a small but real facilities issue involving a named nonprofit partner and private building owners. No contract was approved, so the matter remains in planning and coordination. A seller could follow up on concrete repair or site work once the owners and Prairie 5 settle on the fix.
