THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Emergency Services Committee recommends that Thornapple Township sign the MI‑MABAS mutual aid resolution and agreement, formalizing participation in regional fire and EMS mutual aid. The resolution text is included but adoption is not yet shown in the minutes. Joining MABAS often drives operational updates: radios, dispatch, training, incident management, and special operations capabilities, creating needs for equipment vendors and training/consulting partners.
Agreement aligns the township with Michigan Mutual Aid Box Alarm System standards for resource deployment, special operations teams, and cost recovery.

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