From the meeting
At its September 14, 2026 meeting, the council approved resolution #26-9141 for Zearing to join the Rural Iowa Waste Management Association (RIWMA) as a non-voting participant. Staff said Jerry's Sanitation would start taking solid waste to Hardin County on October 1 and was working on recycling carts and instructional literature so the recycling program could begin soon after. The work is now moving into implementation and support around carts, outreach, and program setup.

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 City of Zearing issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Zearing'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 City of Zearing 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.
