From the meeting
On October 20, 2026 the commission approved an Industrial Facilities Exemption Certificate for Cascade Engineering, Inc. The company is building a 303,000 square foot facility at 5680 East Paris Ave, with real property improvements estimated at $21,326,494 and a $10,663,247 exempt State Equalized Value (SEV). The abatement runs 12 years through December 30, 2038, so the project remains relevant for site work, buildout, and job-creation follow-on.
Danielle Flores was the company representative named in the packet.

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 City of Kentwood'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 City of Kentwood before the RFP is published?
