From the meeting
At its November 2, 2026 meeting, the council was scheduled to ratify the emergency declaration for Davis Meeker Garry Oak risk reduction and preservation. The tree was damaged in a September 25, 2026 windstorm, and the city said specialized arborists working under a DAHP permit were needed for structural pruning and related work. The mayor had already signed the emergency declaration on October 21, 2026, waiving competitive bidding.
Contract amounts were not yet known, and the City Administrator was to report awarded contracts and any needed budget amendment.

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.
