From the meeting
At the October 6, 2026 meeting, staff said they were meeting with companies in Colorado Springs and Denver about fiber optics and the final mile to become the town's own internet service provider. The administrator said the first step would be a study and estimated it could cost $50,000 to $100,000. This is a clear pre-RFP signal for broadband planning and consulting support.

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