THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Acquisition and training of a single-purpose narcotics K9 unit, including the dog and handler training.
Budgeted 20100 for FY27. Dual-purpose dog costs 11500, single-purpose costs 10500. Preference for single-purpose (narcotics) due to training duration and dog's focus. Officer will be off the road for training. Need to ensure timing is right for acquisition, vet checks, and home life arrangements. Motion passed to send to council for September meeting.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Chincoteague's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
