From the meeting
At the November 3, 2026 meeting, the council considered final adoption of an ordinance authorizing agreements with Red River Delta Law Enforcement Planning Council, Inc. for law enforcement grant funding contracts and related documents. The background said Red River Delta channels state and federal grant funds, including Byrne JAG, juvenile justice, and victim assistance, and that Alexandria Police Department participates in the program.
The attached MOU described the Red River Delta Law Enforcement Equipment Modernization Project funded through the BJA FY2026 Byrne Discretionary Community Project Grants/Byrne Discretionary Grants Program, with a grant period from August 1, 2026 through July 31, 2030. The item was pending final adoption in this agenda.

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