From the meeting

At its October 19, 2026 work session, staff reviewed 2027 enterprise and utility fund budgets and rate sheets. The memo reflected a 4% sewer rate increase, a 5% water rate increase, and a 4% stormwater rate increase to support operating, debt, and capital commitments. 377 million in sewer improvements and major water and storm budget shifts tied to projects.

This is useful budget-planning intelligence for utility and infrastructure vendors, with the next purchase decisions likely following the budget cycle.

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.

When will City of New Hope issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of New Hope's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
