From the meeting
On October 27, 2026, the council approved Resolution 2026-29 establishing a temporary moratorium on issuing permits for data center facilities in Silver City. Council discussion focused on the water and energy impact of data centers and the need to buy time while the town reviews its joint powers agreement and related pressure on regional water supply. The resolution was adopted.

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 Silver issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Silver'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 Silver before the RFP is published?
