From the meeting
At its August 17, 2026 meeting, the council said it would take sealed bids on the Blue Chevy pick-up because it is not being used. This is an asset disposal item rather than a new purchase, but it still creates a vendor-facing sale opportunity tied to city equipment.

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