From the meeting
The September 23, 2026 minutes showed the board approved the proposed Fire Chief employment agreement with Heather Marques, and the October 21 packet said she officially joined on October 13, 2026. That leadership change is commercially relevant because the new chief is already shaping operations, wellness, and technology priorities. A seller would track her early priorities, especially staffing, fleet, and district modernization.
This is not a procurement, but it is a buying trigger.

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.
