From the meeting
At its October 16, 2026 request the Police Chief asked the council to accept and ratify a $52,067 FY26 Byrne Discretionary Community Grant. The award was already issued and the state had told the town to begin contract development. The grant would replace and upgrade public safety equipment, including Pyramid in-cruiser repeater systems, 100-watt Kenwood cruiser radios, new radar units, rifle-rated ballistic plates, five Stop Stick tire deflation devices, and five Tacmed active shooter trauma kits.
Decision state: acceptance and ratification were requested.

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.
