From the meeting
At the October 20, 2026 meeting, Council considered a resolution to apply for and accept, if awarded, up to $150,000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds for park shelter improvements at Leonard Howell Park and the TRI Community Center. Staff said the grant scope could be adjusted to fit the actual award and expected an award decision in spring 2027, with funds likely released in late fall 2027. This is a live grant-funded parks project with a concrete funding target and site list.

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.
