From the meeting
Staff said the city had recently completed a sewer main extension to support future development and wanted to recover part of that capital cost through a trunkage connection fee. Council was asked for discussion and consensus, and staff said it would return later with a proposed fee amount, cost-allocation method, and implementation plan. The item shows a utility cost-recovery policy is being built around a completed sewer extension.
Sellers should watch for the later fee-setting and any related engineering or legal work.

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.
