From the meeting
The October 22, 2026 NORA board materials said staff had attended a fundraising webinar and would meet with the Community Foundation on October 30 to discuss what a non-endowed fund might look like. They also said NORA had wanted to apply for the MILEAP Out-of-School Time Grant to support Recreation Summer School, but was advised not to apply this year because the Outdoor Discovery Center receives funding at the same location. Staff said they would revisit the grant next year.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
