The 30-second brief
108 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in City of Tea's meetings, most in capital projects and infrastructure & maintenance. The latest, from Oct 26: The FY2027 budget includes "4305 Capital Outlay" under 4122 Highway/Street Administration at $41,000. A budget note indicates this line is for a new city truck, making it a specific vehicle purchase rather than a general reserve. The document does not name a manufacturer or dealer. This gives fleet, truck-equipment, and upfit vendors a clear FY2027 replacement signal tied to the street department.
Capital Projects leads its tracked contracts and projects, followed by Public Works and Professional Services.
