From the meeting
At its August 18, 2026 meeting, the council approved Resolution 2026-12 amending authority for the mayor to apply for a grant for network gear upgrades. The item is still at the funding-application stage, with no vendor selected yet. The city is signaling an IT modernization need that could move into equipment buying or installation once grant funding is secured.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
