The 30-second brief

What they're planning

155 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in City of Rockville's meetings, most in administration & finance and information technology. The latest, from Oct 28: Montgomery County filed a mandatory referral to install EV charging infrastructure at 260 E Jefferson Street for public and county fleet use. The plan includes four 150-kilowatt DC fast-charging (DCFC) ports for the public and eight Kempower DCFC ports for fleet vehicles, plus new utility transformers, switchgear, and site lighting. The commission was set to review consistency with the comprehensive plan, and staff recommended approval. The project is actionable because it defines the site, scope, and named applicant, with future electrical and implementation work still tied to the site buildout.
