From the meeting
The council reviewed a request to support the permanent doubling of the Ontario Community Infrastructure Fund (OCIF) beyond 2026. The staff report said OCIF helps fund municipal infrastructure rehabilitation, replacement, and asset management, and that the current enhanced level runs through 2026. This is an advocacy and funding trigger, not a project award, but it points to future infrastructure work that will depend on grant levels.
The township planned to keep incorporating anticipated OCIF funding into long-term planning.

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.
