From the meeting
At its September 24, 2026 meeting the board proposed a new Cook County policy for vacant land acquired by the Cook County Land Bank Authority. The resolution directed county agencies to develop an implementing ordinance within 180 days. The incentive would support land assembly, remediation, zoning, infrastructure coordination, and community planning for future reuse.
It is an open planning signal for tax policy, land assembly support, and related implementation work.

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