From the meeting

At its August 10, 2026 meeting the council discussed audio and visual equipment for council chambers and asked City Administrator Mary Tollefson to obtain a proposal from an additional vendor. AVSi had already met with the city and submitted two proposals: one for video conferencing using the existing monitor, and one that also adds a second wall-mounted monitor. The council noted the work was not funded in the 2026 budget, but reserve funds could be used if it proceeds.

This is still an open decision and a clear lead for AV and meeting-room technology vendors.

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.

When will City of Lilydale issue an RFP for this project?

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