From the meeting
The board scheduled a resolution to enact a recurring annual moratorium on large-scale data center developments over 5,000 square feet. This is a policy move, not a procurement, but it affects future private development timing and site selection in the county. It signals that data center projects above that threshold would face a recurring local restriction.

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.
