From the meeting
The line item is CAPS Program - budget monies to begin engineering and architecture reviews and estimates for identified potential projects. The proposed 2027 budget includes $50,000 for engineering and architecture work on possible projects including a library, splash pad estimates, and renderings; the city also said it is researching locations for an independent city-operated library after the joint use agreement with the school district expired in 2025. This is still concept-stage planning, but the source ties money to defined predevelopment work.
The library angle is especially relevant because financing through CAPS is under consideration.

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 Tea issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Tea'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 Tea 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.
