They reviewed three submitted proposals and said the chosen team was selected for qualifications, experience, and operational expertise in biosolids processing, not cost. Staff said multiple financing and delivery options remain open, with site and equipment selection among the early priorities.

Decision state: proposed selection and planning discussion.

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