From the meeting
At its August 17, 2026 meeting the council approved Municipal Order No. 17 appointing Marc Spalding to the rank and office of Major in the Shively Police Department. He said he will support the Chief's vision with forward-thinking leadership and focus on onboarding and development of new recruits and lateral officers.
The buying signal is staffing and operational leadership inside the police department, not a procurement.

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.
