From the meeting
The fireboard report said fire truck costs have skyrocketed and the fire department budget needs to increase to keep up. No dollar amount was set, but the township is clearly signaling higher spending pressure in the next budget cycle. Sellers of apparatus, maintenance, and related public safety services should watch for the budget request and any replacement planning.

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 Town of Hay issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Hay's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
