From the meeting
Multiple reports say the city was continuing to pursue federal and state funding for the Hwy. 218 project and had met with Rep. Brad Finstad and the EPA about federal funding requirements.
The project remained in funding and planning mode, not construction award. The commercial angle is future engineering, grant support, and project delivery work once funding is secured.

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.
