From the meeting
At its October 26, 2026 meeting, the council scheduled action on the purchase of a Circle Air PPE/equipment dryer from Moses Fire Equipment Inc. for $11,320. Fire Chief Mark Jordan said the Fire Department was using a residential clothes dryer for turnout gear and that the new unit can dry up to three full sets at once and also extract particles through a HEPA filtration system.
The memo said the purchase was a budgeted CIP item with a project budget not to exceed $12,000. Decision pending the council vote.

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