From the meeting
At the September 16, 2026 council meeting, the city set special meetings on September 23 and September 26 to consider and interview City Manager applicants. The city had dissolved the prior bargaining context and was in active leadership transition, with the new manager likely to influence future budgeting, consulting, and operating priorities. This is a buying trigger for vendors that support onboarding, goal setting, and administrative modernization.

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.
