From the meeting

At its October 27, 2026 meeting the council denied Southwestern Public Service Company's proposed Large General Service - Transmission tariff amendments and joined the coalition of similarly situated cities. The resolution also authorized special counsel Herrera Law & Associates, PLLC and said SPS must reimburse municipal rate case expenses monthly. The case is tied to large-load electricity demand and potential infrastructure costs, so this is a live utility-rate fight with active legal spend.

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 Amarillo Water Utilities issue an RFP for this project?

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