From the meeting
The council considered a 2026 budget amendment to add Local Affordable Housing Aid spending for Home Improvement Grants. The staff report says the change would also preserve money from an expired TIF district for housing development, including possible property acquisition and demolition. Proposed 2027 and 2028 budgets already include the spending.
This signals an active housing funding package, but no vendor had been selected.

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