THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Commission is considering Resolution 2026-19 to accept a $16,750 FY 2027 Edward J. Byrne JAG award from the Governor's Office of Crime Prevention and Policy. The grant will fund purchase of two Motorola APX Next portable radios plus accessories via an existing cooperative contract used by Maryland and Prince George's County. This confirms Motorola as the selected platform and indicates ongoing radio and communications needs for the police department, including future units, accessories, maintenance, and integration work.
Procurement will use an existing competitively awarded cooperative purchasing contract already utilized by the State of Maryland and Prince George's County, indicating standardized pricing and terms.

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