From the meeting

Council discussed discontinuing the annual decorating contest and using the funds instead to buy additional garland and bows for the town's holiday decorations. The Greater Friendsville Business Association was asked to evaluate what extra decorations are needed and report back at the next meeting. No purchase was approved yet, so this is still a small budget-planning item.

The next step is the association's update and council's decision on whether to shift funds.

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.

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