THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Cowan is holding a July 14, 2026 public meeting on how to use its 2025 Brownfield Redevelopment Area Grant (BRAG) funds. The city wants to extend the Mountain Goat Trail into downtown using existing brownfield sites and support environmentally sound business district redevelopment. Specific design, engineering, construction, and tourism planning work have not yet been defined or procured. Firms in trails, brownfield reuse, downtown planning, and active transportation can engage early as the scope and projects are shaped.

Background

Focus is on safe nonmotorized multimodal trail, greenspace preservation, and outdoor tourism connections via the Mountain Goat Trail.

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