From the meeting
At the September 21, 2026 meeting, Heather Laoticharoen reported that she had talked to about five companies about Christmas lights and that Zeppas was the only one that gave a bid. Zeppas quoted $7,500 and would own the lights, replace damaged or stolen items at its own cost, and continue the arrangement yearly. The commission discussed doing the work this year versus waiting and starting bids in March or April for 2027.
Decision state: discussed, with no vote.

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 Barbourmeade's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
