From the meeting
11 stormwater rules require a Utilities Stormwater Technical Standards Manual, a small-project guide, and readiness certification before the chapter takes effect. The ordinance says the Director of Utilities must approve and publish the manual before the effective date and file a certification with the City Manager and City Council at least 60 days before implementation. The chapter sets tiered review for projects over 200 square feet and requires a Rhode Island licensed professional engineer for projects over 1,200 square feet.
Adoption was proposed as part of the ordinance package.

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