From the meeting
On October 15, 2026 the Planning Commission considered an ordinance rewriting social club rules and creating zoning categories for indoor event venues, outdoor event venues, and accessory outdoor entertainment. The draft would also change licensing, nuisance, and enforcement provisions, with outdoor or residential-adjacent uses facing added review. Staff said City Council planned a public hearing on the full ordinance on November 9, 2026.
This is still a policy and code-shaping decision, but it directly affects event venue operators and related licensing work.

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.
