From the meeting
At its September 14, 2026 meeting, the board approved Joseph M. Goulart's plan for a 30' x 40' accessory garage at 421 Metacom Ave. The project exceeds the 22' x 24' maximum in the R-10 zone and will replace outdoor storage with an enclosed steel garage for vehicles and a boat.
The approval is final at zoning, but it points to site prep, demolition of part of an existing foundation, and prefabricated building installation.

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 Bristol Housing Authority issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Bristol Housing Authority's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Bristol Housing Authority before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
