From the meeting
Metro's FY 2027 maintenance budget said the natural gas supply contract was renewed in 2026 with a 65% rate increase, bringing the CNG fuel line to $179,700. The renewal decision had already occurred by the October 22, 2026 source date, so this is not an open buy. It still matters as incumbent pricing intelligence for future fuel sourcing and operating-cost discussions around the CNG fleet.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
