Pre-RFPProfessional ServicesDetected Jun 25, 2026

The Miscellaneous Projects section includes a “Water System Hydraulic Model Update & Integration with GIS” (account 1118-160), funded at $20,000 per year across FY 24-25, 25-26, and 26-27, with ongoing actual expenditures. This indicates the District is actively maintaining and enhancing its hydraulic model and integrating it with geographic information systems. No specific consultant is named in the budget, and the relatively modest annual funding suggests a recurring professional services engagement or small task orders.Modeling and GIS firms can position to support model calibration, capacity analysis, fire flow studies, and enterprise GIS integration, as well as to link the model with asset management and capital planning tools.

Hydraulic modeling ties directly to pipeline CIP planning, pressure zone evaluations, and fire flow projects.

Public Updates

The agenda includes a summary of RFP projects from January-June 2026. The item appears to be a status review rather than a new solicitation, award, or contract action. It can still signal which service areas the task force has been sourcing and whether follow-on work may reappear later in the year.
