From the meeting
The Select Board discussed an email from MMA about holding a Special Town Meeting to approve the purchase of a new fire truck and accept the FEMA grant. 52 from the undesignated fund if needed, with reimbursement expected from the grant. Fire Chief Charlie King was asked to attend the next Select Board meeting, so the financing and purchase path was still being shaped.

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.
