From the meeting
The city was asked to join the Kansas Abandoned Housing Act pilot as a partner with Neighborhood Legal Support, Lawrence Habitat for Humanity, and Tenants to Homeowners. The packet says the collaborative application was selected by NLS and that the pilot will use City resources to identify vacant, abandoned, and blighted residential properties. This is a grant-style partnership with clear implementation work, partner roles, and a live property-rehab pipeline.

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.
When will City of Lawrence issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Lawrence's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with City of Lawrence before the RFP is published?
