From the meeting
The council planned to քննարկ an ordinance granting Southwest Arkansas Telecommunications & Technology, LLC, doing business as Four States Fiber, the right to build and operate internet and voice phone service facilities in city rights of way. The ordinance also would levy a franchise tax for that purpose. This was a pending decision at the October 8, 2026 meeting, so the opportunity was still open.
The named company is the key party to track for franchise, buildout, and construction timing.

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.

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