From the meeting
The Burlington Forward resolution said the mayor may use FY27 budget money to contract with third-party public safety personnel, including certified police officers, to increase visible presence in problem areas. It also said existing contracted personnel, such as garage patrol staff, may be repurposed if agreements allow. The work is temporary and time-limited, so vendor and staffing follow-on conversations are likely.

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.
