From the meeting
Gaines County adopted updated tax abatement guidelines and criteria on October 5, 2026. The policy sets the bar for future reinvestment zones and abatement deals, including at least $500,000 in added tax roll value and $1 million in net economic benefit over the life of the agreement. That creates a clear entry point for developers, manufacturers, renewable energy projects, and other eligible facilities that may seek county incentives.
The next conversation is about project eligibility, timing, and the evidence needed to support an abatement request.

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