From the meeting
On October 19, 2026 the commission considered applying for a Kalamazoo County 2027 Community Grant for amenities at the pocket park at 102 N. Riverview Drive. The plan called for a concrete patio, picnic tables, planters, plantings, lighting, and possibly a mural if the building owner agrees.
The city said the project had not been budgeted and likely would not be completed without grant funding.

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