From the meeting
At the October 20, 2026 policy session, staff discussed a proposed 10% increase in water and wastewater rates. Staff tied the increase to rising operating costs and future capital needs, including a third Jordan Well and wastewater treatment plant modifications for Iowa Department of Natural Resources compliance. If the council supported it, an ordinance would follow with new rates effective January 1, 2027.

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.
