From the meeting
At the November 16, 2026 meeting, staff asked the committee to recommend eliminating Bond 2019 Project 60, Double the Solar Power Generating Capacity at Appaloosa Library. The packet said the existing solar system was failing, that adding to it was not appropriate, and that replacing it would cost more than $47,000 with engineering included. It also said a full parking shade canopy with solar PV would exceed $500,000 and far exceed the bond scope.
Action: recommended.

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