From the meeting
On November 4, 2026, the Finance and Budget Committee recommended that City Council adopt the FY2027 Proposed Budget. The memo says the City published the budget on October 6, 2026 and had already discussed it on October 7 and October 29. The packet highlights possible amendments, including a partial non-union hiring freeze, position reductions, a reduced transfer to the Special Assessment Fund, and a reduced non-union wage increase.
Committee action was for introduction and the budget remained under council consideration.

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 Evanston Fire Department's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
