From the meeting
At its August 24, 2026 special council meeting, the City of La Crosse reviewed efforts to address downtown homelessness and related public safety problems. The statement called for stronger enforcement, more treatment and crisis stabilization capacity, supportive housing options, and regional help from county, state, and federal partners. No procurement was approved, but the city signaled an ongoing need for public safety and service solutions tied to homelessness response.

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.
