From the meeting
At the September 22, 2026 selectboard meeting, Fire Chief Brian Schmidt asked that the firehouse fire alarm system upgrade begin. The board said it would look into the request, so the decision is still open. This is an early signal for firehouse safety work and any follow-on design, bidding, or equipment scope.

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.
