From the meeting
On October 20, 2026, the board moved to hire Maria Hatfield as the new Corrections Director, and the motion carried 5-0. The board agreed that current Director Brad Johnson would extend the offer, and staff would process the promotion after acceptance. The change is a leadership trigger for jail operations and creates a jail administrator vacancy that will need to be filled.

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 Lancaster County's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Lancaster County before the RFP is published?
