From the meeting
At the July 9, 2026 meeting the board approved $500 each for Victoria Westfall and Heather Hanna to take a grant writing class. Chief Aaron Darr said Westfall wanted the training and Hanna has already been writing grants. This is a capability investment tied to future grant pursuit, especially emergency and fire program grants.

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