From the meeting
At its August 11, 2026 regular meeting, the council tabled action on outdoor warning sirens and possible upgrades. No vendor was selected and no scope was awarded, so the decision remains open. The item signals a live public safety need and a future purchase path once the council resumes action.

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.
