From the meeting
Jay, Livermore, and Livermore Falls were awarded a $5,000 grant to support rural economic development and health goals. The grant, backed by Outdoor Recreation Roundtable with support from Richard King Mellon Foundation and VF Foundation, was to fund gateway, trailhead, directional, interpretive, and accessibility signage. The board voted to accept the grant, so the immediate follow-on is implementation of the signage 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.

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