THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The Town of Raymond has scheduled a July 13, 2026 public hearing on proposed Bylaw 1166-26, which would redesignate approximately 2.21 ha (5.45 acres) from Urban Reserve (UR-1) to Parks & Open Space (POS-1). The notice states the purpose is to accommodate future parks and recreation on this parcel, indicating long-term intent to develop new recreational amenities once land use is approved.
No specific park facilities, budget, or project timeline are defined yet, and no vendors are mentioned, so this is still in a land-use and concept-planning stage rather than an active procurement. For vendors in park design, recreation planning, playgrounds, landscaping, site servicing, or community engagement, this is an early signal that a greenfield parks project is being created and that planning work will follow the zoning decision. The practical next step is to build relationships with the Planning and Development Director and parks leadership and be prepared to support visioning, master planning, or preliminary design once the rezoning is adopted.
Public hearing participation is coordinated through Planning and Development and Legislative Services; bylaw text and map are available on raymond.ca and at the town office.

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.
When will Town of Raymond issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Raymond's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with Town of Raymond before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
