From the meeting
At the September 16, 2026 meeting the commission recommended approval of a professional services agreement for a Vendor Manager for Arts in the Park. The draft covers vendor recruiting, communications, assignments, weekly support, and a 10-week 2027 season from June 15 through August 24, 2027. The agreement does not name the promoter yet, but it shows the City is formalizing dedicated vendor-management support and has recurring weekly work tied to the event.

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