From the meeting
At the July 8, 2026 Planning Commission meeting, the commission reviewed a Gemini AI gap analysis for Zoning Ordinance Article 2 on nonconforming lots, structures, and uses. The report said Article 2 should be rewritten in full and flagged missing standards for abandonment, expansion, reconstruction damage thresholds, and lot merger rules. This is a clear ordinance-redraft signal with follow-on consulting, drafting, and implementation work still open.

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