From the meeting
At its August 13, 2026 meeting, the board discussed staffing for the Baling Center and took no action after questions arose about the cost. Director Bobby Schultz said the original RFP award to Center for Employment Opportunities had been based on a misread cost, with the work previously done by Show costing $30,000 and CEO quoting $260,000. Shawna Detmer said CEO had secured philanthropic and federal funding and could start October 5, 2026 through June 30, 2027.
The item was left open and another RFP had been discussed.

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

Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
