From the meeting
Brighton discussed canceling the current fiber RFP because both bids were far above the estimate and would reduce reserves too sharply. The council also noted a private company had won BEAD grant funding for Big Cottonwood Canyon, creating a possible partnership or smaller future RFP. Design Nine Inc.
had been supporting the study and RFP preparation, so the town is still shaping the next phase of the broadband build.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
