THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

The Town of Seneca adopted a July 15, 2026 resolution formally opposing the proposed MariBell 765kV electric transmission project that would cross the Driftless Area. The document outlines detailed environmental, wildlife, economic, property value, and community character concerns and questions the need for the 200-mile line. This is a policy and advocacy move, not a town procurement, but it signals an active regulatory fight and potential need for technical, legal, and communication support for intervenors and local governments along the route.

Background

Resolution and supporting documents will be transmitted to PSC of Wisconsin, Dairyland Power Cooperative, GridLiance Heartland, LLC, Wisconsin DNR, and other reviewing agencies.

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 Seneca issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Seneca'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 Seneca 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.
