From the meeting
At its September 21, 2026 meeting, the board approved Carmel Electric's $13,520 price to replace lights in Old Tannery Park. The town had reviewed quotes of $11,550 for two lights and $13,520 for three lights, and the manager recommended paying from the TIF account. This is now an awarded park lighting job with a clear incumbent vendor and funding source.

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