From the meeting
At its August 18, 2026 meeting, Chief Brian Williams said he submitted a $107,000 grant application for radios for the cars, taser lease, body cam lease, and other items tied to the immigration program. He also asked to get $3,600 of grant money back for vests that came in that week. The funding is not yet awarded, so the opportunity is still open.
A seller should track the grant decision and the likely equipment and lease package if the money is released.

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.
