174 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in City of Lynnwood's meetings, most in parks & recreation and information technology. The latest, from Oct 21: The CFP kept a Recreation Center Phase II item that calls for a feasibility and alternatives analysis for a community center or expansion of the recreation and community center. The packet says the work would lead to planning, design, and construction, but the immediate need is still study and concept development. This is a classic pre-RFP signal for facility planning.
