From the meeting
The council was scheduled to create a Vehicle Resident Assistance Permit program for motor homes and travel trailers. The bill required SDOT, HSD, and SPD to write rules, set up permit processing by April 30, 2027, and begin enforcement by July 31, 2027. It also called for outreach, case management, and shelter-storage coordination.
This is an active policy and operations opportunity with clear downstream needs for software, outreach, towing, storage, and case management support.

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.
When will City of Seattle issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Seattle's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with City of Seattle before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
