THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Bolton & Menk submitted a detailed proposal to update Madison’s zoning ordinance and map for about $14,452, covering code cleanup, map updates, rezonings, and public workshops by year-end 2026. The agenda item is to approve a Zoning Ordinance Update Proposal, indicating the city is ready to choose a consultant. Competing planning, legal, and codification firms have a narrow window to offer alternative services or support future implementation of procedures, permitting software, and public engagement tools tied to the new code.

Background

Scope includes cannabis rules, ADUs, short-term rentals, parking, variances, wellhead protection, annexation, and rezones aligned with 2024 Comprehensive Plan; proposal is pending council approval.

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 Madison issue an RFP for this project?

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