From the meeting
At its August 20, 2026 meeting, HCPSS said the Nancy K. Kopp Public School Facilities Priority Fund was available for FY 2027 and that the district had been allocated $6,000,000 with no local match required. Staff were reviewing Educational Facilities Master Plan prioritization results and expected to bring a proposal to the Board in September to meet the State application timeline.
The grant can fund air conditioning, heating, indoor air quality, mold remediation, plumbing, roofs, and windows, but project selections were not yet named.

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.
