From the meeting
Council heard that the generator had been ordered and the pad would be installed as soon as possible. Staff said backfilling would be needed to create a level site, with readiness expected by winter. The specific purchase is already made, but the installation and site prep still create follow-on work for equipment, electrical, and site contractors.
The town also said the generator is part of its infrastructure update.

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.
