From the meeting

At its November 16, 2026 special town meeting, the town scheduled a vote to appropriate $60,000 from the Sewer Reserve Fund Balance to buy a new 35kW portable generator. The summary said the generator would replace a unit manufactured in 2000 and provide backup power to three sewer pump stations across town. It also noted a 12- to 18-month manufacturer lead time because of current supply chain constraints.

Decision state: vote scheduled.

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 Town of Sturbridge's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
