From the meeting

Chief Jeff Keefe reported continued planning for a potential spring referendum on future ambulance staffing and EMS operations. The district had also begun work with Discovery Works on the referendum process and started developing a charge statement and an exploratory committee. This is an early buying trigger tied to staffing and service expansion, with the next meaningful conversation centered on scope, messaging, and timeline.

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.
