From the meeting
At its October 5, 2026 meeting, staff reported that Well 5's controls were no longer repairable. The proposed solution was to connect Well 5 to the existing Well 6 control system, with an estimated cost of $5,300, plus an earlier estimate of about $5,800 for electrical work tied to the pump-shed building. No construction decision was made, but the utility need is clear and immediate.

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