From the meeting
At its September 9, 2026 meeting the Town Board tabled the purchase of a new 2027 Ford Police Interceptor Utility AWD from Metro Ford Sales, Inc. The vehicle cost was stated as $47,891, with $44,000 to come from the NYS Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant. The buy was not approved, so the police vehicle need remains open and may return for a later vote.

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