From the meeting
At its October 19, 2026 meeting, council considered adding a new rule for site development activities in the purchasing and contracting manual. Chester County Economic Development Department would need County Administrator review before proceeding, and county funds on non-county property would require council approval if not reimbursed by another source. This is a buying-trigger change because it creates a new internal gate for site work and associated spending.
The next conversation is with the County Administrator and Economic Development staff on how future site projects will be routed.

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