From the meeting

At its November 4, 2026 meeting the Planning Commission reviewed a draft downtown master plan that called for selecting a flood control alternative, completing design, grading plans, utility assessment, land needs, and a FEMA map revision request. The plan tied downtown redevelopment to future flood protection and noted that larger decisions, acquisitions, and construction would happen later. It also said the City should identify a funding source and work with the Drainage District on the project.

The source is planning-level, with no award recorded.

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.
