From the meeting
Chief Brian Cole announced his retirement from the Casco Fire Department effective October 24, 2026. The Town said it would begin recruitment, evaluation, and appointment of a permanent Fire Chief, including possible updates to the job description. The Town Manager also said Jon Morrison would serve as Interim Fire Chief until a permanent hire was made.
This leadership change is a buying trigger for staffing, training, and transition support tied to fire operations.

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.
