From the meeting
The October 20, 2026 agenda scheduled a temporary moratorium on advanced computing and data center development and directed a comprehensive planning and development impact study. That is a pre-RFP signal for planning, analysis, and policy support work tied to a future zoning response. The commission had not yet made the final decision.
A seller would watch for the study scope and any later consulting procurement.

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