THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Dispatch’s FY 2027 plan budgets $84,000 in capital, including $80,000 for a backup dispatch center and $4,000 for radios. The Technical Director recommends these, and the City funds dispatch jointly with Park County. No design or site has been publicized for the backup center. Public safety radio and 911 infrastructure vendors can engage now on concept design, site fit‑out, and integration with existing systems.

Background

Dispatch operations are funded via a shared Dispatch Fund; City transfers significant support from General Fund.

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 City of Livingston issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Livingston's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
