From the meeting
At its October 19, 2026 workshop, the council reviewed the 2027 operating budgets and 2027-2031 capital improvement plans (CIP) for water, sewer, and stormwater. The plan shifts routine utility capital to cash funding and lays out named projects, including SCADA upgrades, lift station work, treatment plant design, and street reconstructions. No vendor was selected; this is an open planning signal tied to future utility work and funding.

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