From the meeting
At the October 19, 2026 meeting, Matt Jelacic updated the committee on limited winter shelter beds and efforts to source temporary construction trailers. The committee also asked for a future presentation from Capstone regarding winter shelter plans. This is an open planning signal tied to emergency shelter capacity and temporary housing support.
A seller would want to follow the Capstone review and any trailer sourcing discussion.

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 Montpelier issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Montpelier's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
