From the meeting
On October 21, 2026, Emergency Management brought forward the 2026-2027 Hazardous Materials Emergency Preparedness (HMEP) grant. The county said the annual award included a $20,000 in-kind match and would fund a multijurisdictional hazardous materials exercise. Staff said EM would complete an informal bid process to hire a contractor to create and facilitate the exercise.
The grant is recurring and still creates a near-term service opportunity.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
