From the meeting
The council considered coordinating with the Emergency Services District to auction off the city fire engine and other city-owned vehicles. This is a disposition and fleet turnover signal, not a new purchase. It can still matter to sellers tied to apparatus sales, surplus vehicle auction services, or replacement planning.
The item was scheduled for discussion on August 17, 2026.

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.
