From the meeting
The draft Financial Management Plan says the city will maintain a separate rolling five-year capital improvement plan (CIP) for streets, utilities, buildings, parks, fleet, equipment, and technology. It also ties future capital planning to reserve restoration and annual budget monitoring. This is a clear pre-RFP planning signal because future projects need to be sequenced, funded, and justified before procurement starts.

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.
