From the meeting
At its September 14, 2026 meeting, the town heard that the dam embankment on the north side of the river has failed inspection and needs tree removal, root ball removal, special clay fill, and compaction. Neil Chippendale said an engineering study had already been done and the estimated contractor cost is about $250,000. The dam fund does not have the money, so the town is weighing help from the highway crew or a bond.
The permits remain valid for a few more years, but the work should start sooner rather than 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.
