From the meeting
At its July 13, 2026 meeting, the council approved initial testing of two inactive town wells and directed staff to work through formal bids and quotes. Staff said the wells had been turned off several years ago and would need State approval, new testing protocols, and replacement equipment before they could be used again. The first-year cost was estimated at $91,694, including testing, equipment, and pump replacement, with the golf-course well lining also damaged.
The town said the work could be covered by grant funding already in the budget.

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.
