From the meeting

At the October 28, 2026 meeting, the council considered the city's 2027 Legislative Priorities. The list included a bonding bill request for the Little Canada pedestrian bridge over I-35E, support for broadband franchising, local control, a local option sales tax, the Local Government Aid program, state-level e-bike regulation, and League of Minnesota Cities and Metro Cities policies. The staff report said there was no funding request at that time, but the council had previously directed staff to bring the priorities forward for formal approval.

The committee also said it would further explore using a lobbying firm.

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.

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