From the meeting
The board packet on October 20, 2026 laid out a new fence and gate for the bus barn to protect the district's investment. Three contractors were quoted for 1,412 linear feet of chain-link fencing, and Young Guns Welding & Fabrication also priced the entry gate at $7,000. This is an open facilities purchase tied to the new bus barn site and funded through the Metal Mines account.

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.
