From the meeting

In the October 6, 2026 work session minutes, staff said it would recommend increasing the capital improvement program (CIP) allocation for the sidewalk improvement program to support long-term progress and future grant opportunities. Public Works staff mentioned starting at $500,000 and evaluating the program annually, but no final funding direction was needed yet. This is a strong pre-RFP signal for sidewalk, trail connection, and grant-support services.

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.
