From the meeting
At its October 6, 2026 meeting, the Town Manager said the board had awarded a culvert replacement project the prior week, but the Director of Public Works then found the culvert sat on top of or underneath the waterline. The town said it would not move forward with the replacement at this time, and the Director of Public Works submitted an amendment to the state. This leaves the project in a hold state and signals possible redesign, utility coordination, or rebid work later.

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.
