THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The mayor also noted a $5,000 grant from the Washington State Office of Public Defense that Finance Director Josh DeLay applied for as a Public Defense Improvement grant. While small, this funding is earmarked for enhancing municipal public defense services. Legal service providers, case management software vendors, and training organizations could explore whether the City needs tools, assessments, or training aligned with this grant’s goals.
Voucher list shows ongoing monthly public defender invoices to Kottkamp, Yedinak, & Esworthy PLLC and Lytle Law PLLC, indicating existing contracted providers who may influence how the grant is used.

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.
