From the meeting
Chief Mike Colby said he, City Administrator Diers, and Mayor Ebeling would attend the Board of Supervisors meeting to discuss moving forward with installation of an additional communications tower for the county. No award or solicitation was recorded, but the tower discussion shows a live public safety infrastructure need and cross-jurisdiction planning. The next decision point appears to be the county supervisors meeting.

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 Clear Lake issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Clear Lake's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with City of Clear Lake before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
