From the meeting

At its September 15, 2026 meeting, the council approved a vehicle lease agreement with Chester First Aid Squad, Inc. S. Department of Homeland Security Federal Emergency Management Agency Assistance to Firefighters Grant Program funding.

First Aid Squad representatives said the ambulance cannot be placed into service until the agreement is fully executed, and they raised concerns about the five-year term, title transfer, and termination language. The item is awarded, but the remaining value is in execution, vehicle deployment, and any future amendments for additional apparatus.

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