From the meeting
At its October 15, 2026 work session, the council introduced Ordinance #3165 to regulate automated license plate recognition (ALPR) systems on municipal property and in rights-of-way. The ordinance set a final hearing for October 27, 2026, so the rule change was still pending. It matters to ALPR vendors and police technology providers because the city was defining where private systems can be installed and how municipal or police-owned systems must be controlled.

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