From the meeting
The planning commission had a discussion item on data centers at its October 26, 2026 meeting. The agenda does not show a solicitation or award, but it does signal an active policy conversation that could affect future zoning, site selection, utility needs, and permitting for data center projects. A seller tracking digital infrastructure should watch for follow-on code changes or development proposals.

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