From the meeting

The downtown master plan packet summarized community engagement and scenario development for future downtown concepts. It showed extensive outreach, stakeholder interviews, and workshops, which indicates the city is still shaping the preferred direction before project delivery begins. Vendors that support planning, facilitation, visualization, and implementation strategy have an opening here.

The immediate next step is the city reviewing the concepts and deciding what moves into the final master plan.

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 Merriam's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
