From the meeting

On July 21, 2026 the Public Works Committee recommended a Fire Hydrant Water Meter Rental Program and an ordinance amending the 2026 schedule of rates, fees, and charges. Staff said contractors use these meters and that the city had dealt with water theft issues in the past. This is already a policy decision, but it signals demand for meters, controls, and rental administration around hydrant use.

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.

When will City of Ramsey issue an RFP for this project?

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