From the meeting
The council considered an ordinance to create city right-of-way and temporary street use permits for closures, excavation, utility work, traffic control, and parking lot or access work. It sets a $50 application fee and a $30 permit fee, with Public Works, the City Engineer, Police, Fire, and the Building Official involved in review and enforcement. This is a policy move that signals ongoing street and utility work needing permit coordination.

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.
