From the meeting
At the Oct. 29, 2026 CCAC meeting, staff said the city was moving forward with a year-long public Solarize campaign with Olympia Community Solar. The committee also discussed funding sources and grants that could support solar, battery storage, and resiliency work.
Laura Rysher was still collecting grant options and funding ideas, so the next step is shaping a financed implementation plan.

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.
