THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

The council is holding a public hearing on an emergency ordinance establishing penalties for willful wasting of water and setting water consumption restrictions. This is a policy move tied to water conservation and potential enforcement needs, not yet tied to specific technology or services. Vendors in metering, monitoring, billing, and enforcement support can monitor as rules finalize and look for follow-on needs like outreach, compliance tools, or upgraded metering systems.

Background

Water restrictions and penalties often lead to metering, leak detection, billing, and customer outreach projects after policy adoption.

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.
