From the meeting
On September 22, 2026 the council accepted Mayor Almasi's appointment of Mike Darrah as City of Elmwood Chief of Police. The minutes do not tie the change to a specific procurement, but the leadership change can affect public safety budgets, staffing priorities, and any future equipment or services planning. Mike Darrah is the key contact for follow-on police operational needs.

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 Elmwood issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Elmwood'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 Elmwood before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
Where can I find more public safety government opportunities in Illinois?
Civic IQ monitors board meetings, agendas, budgets, and capital plans from 100,000+ state and local agencies and surfaces public safety pre-RFPs in Illinois as soon as they appear — months before they reach bid portals.
