The 30-second brief
6 pre-RFPs (projects, hiring and grants) found in Town of Summit's meetings, most in capital projects and insurance. The latest, from Oct 20: The board scheduled consideration of a demolition order for 505 Cass Street. No contractor or award was named in the agenda text, so this is only a planned local government action tied to a property removal project. A vendor could watch for a follow-on demolition procurement if the order moves ahead.
Capital Projects leads its tracked contracts and projects, followed by Public Works and Public Safety.
Latest awards: Dunigan Brothers for board to Consider Horton Road Path Extension Quote (Aug 2026) and Consumers Energy for township to Consider Amending Consumers Energy Contract (Aug 2026).
