From the meeting

Council reviewed whether all four enterprise utility rate studies should be aligned in the same year or kept on alternating years. Staff also presented alternate implementation timing for rate adoption and effective dates, with rate-study work shown on the timeline for 2027 and adoption in February 2028. The update referenced prior council direction to evaluate alignment and alternate implementation timing.

Decision state: timing options were discussed, not adopted.

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