From the meeting
At the September 30, 2026 work session, the council voted to apply for the Urban Forestry Council Trees Across Mississippi Grant for Riverwalk enhancements. The grant was for Riverwalk improvements, mulch, and cleanup of the Forest Trail, with tree planting already underway at Sim Scott Park, Hank Aaron Park, and Townsend Community Center. The vote had already happened by the source date, so the lead is the grant-funded Riverwalk project and related outdoor amenity work.

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.
