From the meeting
The council said mulch was still needed for the playground and the mayor had already sought quotes. Lowe's and Menards quoted about $7,000. This is an open purchase need with named price checks, so the decision is still live even though no award was recorded.
Follow up would be with the town on whether it buys the mulch and from whom.

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.
