From the meeting
At its September 24, 2026 meeting, the district reported that it had applied for a $600,000 Open Space Land Acquisition and Development (OSLAD) grant for the Mead Park project. Residents raised concerns about the basketball court placement, and Director Kosbab said he would explore adding a dedicated basketball court to the design. The tennis court will also receive additional striping for pickleball.
This is an open funding and design-shaping signal for a park capital project.

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 Elk Grove Park District's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
