The 30-second brief
183 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in City of Richardson City's meetings, most in transportation and grants. The latest, from Oct 26: The council was scheduled to consider an underground easement and right of way for electric services to Oncor Electric Delivery Company, LLC across 0.108 acres at the Richardson Service Center. The memo tied the easement to replacing the Service Center generator with two new Cummins generators and moving the existing transformer. The project is part of critical backup power work for SCADA and day-to-day city operations. This is implementation support for a decided capital project, with easement execution enabling the construction sequence.
Capital Projects leads its tracked contracts and projects, followed by Public Works and Recreation & Community Services.
