From the meeting
During staff communications, Lori Mullins said the DDA was in negotiations with the trash service provider, which is seeking a fee increase. The source does not name the vendor or a finalized change, but it shows an active contract pressure point. A seller would want to know the service agreement is under cost review.

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.
