Pre-RFPInfrastructure & MaintenanceDetected May 26, 2026

On May 26, 2026, the Board received an email from Ed Shank on behalf of the Mascoma Valley Snow Travelers requesting the Board sign a landowner project permission form for a State of New Hampshire Bureau of Trails grant application. The proposed work would be on class VI roads in town, but the Board requested more information about the project and exact locations before approving and asked Emily to invite Shank to the June 8, 2026 meeting to present details. If the Board approves and the grant is awarded, the project could involve trail improvements, drainage work, signage, or minor construction on class VI roads. Engineering, trail design, construction, and environmental compliance vendors can watch this for potential small-scale infrastructure work funded through state trail grants, and may assist the Snow Travelers or town with design, permitting, and construction once the scope is clarified.

Budget Planning

Esparto Fire Protection District’s FY 2026-27 budget sets aside 50,000 for Maintenance-Equipment and 20,000 for Maintenance-Building Improvements. This indicates planned work on apparatus, equipment upkeep, and physical improvements to district facilities during the fiscal year. The document doesn’t list contractors or specific projects, suggesting that scopes and vendors are not yet fixed. Maintenance and construction-related firms can position services for apparatus and equipment repair, station upgrades, and small capital projects, helping the district plan work orders and small contracts against these line items.

These are ongoing operational maintenance lines rather than a single large capital construction proj...

Pre-RFP

Tiburon’s CIP proposes a $40,000 "Town Owned Facility Backflow Prevention Device Installation" project in FY2026‑27 in response to stricter California drinking water regulations and Marin Municipal Water District’s expanded cross-connection requirements. The project will install approved backflow prevention assemblies on municipal water services where irrigation, fire suppression, or other plumbing configurations present contamination risks. No vendors are listed, and the project is noted as not yet included in the adopted five‑year plan, indicating an early planning phase. Mechanical/plumbing contractors and backflow specialists can help Tiburon identify affected facilities, select and install compliant assemblies, and set up testing and maintenance programs aligned with MMWD policies.

New statewide cross-connection control requirements suggest that similar backflow projects may recur...

Pre-RFP

The adopted FY 2026‑27 CIP sets aside $40,000 to install backflow prevention devices at Town‑owned facilities in response to new California drinking water and cross‑connection control regulations and enforcement by Marin Municipal Water District. The description notes that MMWD is actively requiring installation of approved assemblies on municipal services where hazards exist, such as irrigation and fire suppression lines. No contractor or design firm is named, and the project is at the planning stage. Backflow device suppliers, plumbing contractors, and engineering firms can engage Tiburon on surveying Town facilities, designing compliant installations, and handling permitting and coordination with MMWD across multiple sites.

Regulatory driver is the State Water Resources Control Board Cross Connection Control Policy Handboo...
