From the meeting
Dakota County proposed Belonging by Design: Public Art for Welcoming Spaces in its October 13, 2026 grant package. The project would place pavement murals, tunnel murals, and welcome signs along the River to River Greenway and the North Creek Greenway, including locations near Garlough Elementary, Thompson County Park, Quarry Point Park, East Lake Park, Robert Street, and the 157th Street underpass. The county requested up to $390,000.
It is a grant-funded planning lead for design, art production, and wayfinding work.

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.
When will Dakota County issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Dakota County's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Dakota County before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account unlocks this pre-RFP's source document, forecasted RFP timing, and verified Dakota County decision-maker contacts.
