From the meeting
At its August 27, 2026 meeting, the board discussed electric vehicles being charged from ordinary outlets at the Center City garage and the safety and liability concerns that raised. The Fire Chief said there was no specific state or local statute prohibiting the practice, but the board agreed staff should prepare warning notices discouraging unauthorized charging. Members also discussed whether proper EV charging stations would be safer.
No purchase was approved; the need was still being defined.

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.
