From the meeting
At its November 12, 2026 meeting, the council was asked to award the East Dearborn Grade Protection Project to Eminent Excavating, LLC for $9,973,173. The project was tied to FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funding and follows a January 21, 2026 bid opening that was delayed by the federal shutdown. The work covers grade protection structures, flap gates, new storm sewers, bulkheads, and solid manhole covers in the east Dearborn drainage area.
Immediate effect was requested and the City Engineer was asked to handle change orders or modifications.

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.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Dearborn's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
