From the meeting
At its September 28, 2026 meeting, the City Council considered a 12-month moratorium on data center applications while staff rewrote the zoning code and developed a Citywide Data Center Companion Ordinance. The moratorium would pause rezoning, permits, annexation requests, and other approvals for data center projects. It also signals future work on environmental, utility, road, and land-use standards.
Stantec was already selected for the related GM/JATCO conceptual redevelopment plan and strategy effort.

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 Janesville Area MPO issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Janesville Area MPO's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.

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.
