From the meeting
Council discussed whether the village should charge credit card fees for resident water and tax payments, and staff said the current policy is to absorb the fees for now. Director Rebecca Shipley-Arnott said the new online water billing system may change payment behavior later, so the fee policy could be revisited in the future. This is a policy and revenue decision, not a procurement award.

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 West Jefferson village's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
