From the meeting
The council approved an exception to the hiring freeze for the Police Chief position and directed staff to begin the recruitment and appointment process. The city manager presented the item. This is a leadership trigger for public safety operations and may affect future technology, staffing, and procurement priorities once the new chief is in place.

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 Fortuna issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Fortuna'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 Fortuna before the RFP is published?
