The 30-second brief
30 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in City of Norwalk's meetings, most in capital projects and grants. The latest, from Oct 6: The September 15, 2026 minutes show the city adopted an ordinance to join NOPEC's aggregated competitive procurement program for electric energy and/or natural gas for municipal accounts. The ordinance also authorized the mayor or designee to execute supplier agreements, so the buying decision had already been made by that meeting. This is useful incumbent and follow-on intelligence for energy suppliers, especially around municipal account enrollment and agreement execution.
