From the meeting
At the Nov. 5, 2026 meeting, Council was scheduled to adopt the Winter Lights Master Plan 2027-2036. The plan set a coordinated replacement schedule for winter lighting and decoration assets over the next decade.
It called for a 2027 RGB orb field in the North Plaza, Phase 2 pole-mounted snowflakes, and later replacements for trees, light curtains, tunnels, and signature features. The plan was presented as the basis for future investments and long-term budgeting.

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 City of Marion issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Marion'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 City of Marion 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.
Where can I find more parks & recreation government opportunities in Iowa?
