From the meeting
At the September 21, 2026 meeting, council held the public hearing on revisions to Ordinance No. 686 for solar energy utilities. The draft adds setback, buffering, fencing, decommissioning, and Planning Commission review requirements for solar farms and large projects.
The ordinance was slated to move to third hearing on October 5, 2026, so the sales angle is understanding the new site and permitting rules before future solar work advances.

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.
