THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Oak Park is asking voters to renew two public safety millages that fund pensions, retiree healthcare, personnel, vehicles, and fire equipment for 2027–2037. Together they are expected to raise about $6.4 million in the first year, with some capture by Brownfield and Corridor Improvement Authorities. If these renewals fail, the city will divert funds from parks, DPW, and infrastructure to cover public safety obligations, tightening future operating and capital budgets. Vendors tied to public safety, infrastructure, and grant-funded projects should watch the August vote as it will shape spending capacity for the next decade.
Millage revenues are restricted to public safety retirement system and public safety operations; failure impacts funding for other city services and capital 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 City of Oak Park's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
