From the meeting

The water budget said future water budgets would need to address the City's aging meter reading system, which staff described as quite expensive. No purchase was approved, but the budget documents flagged the meter system as a future capital need. The 2027 water budget also included $73,000 for SCADA communications work and showed the meter section with a proposed operating budget.

The item was part of the October 28, 2026 enterprise fund budget review.

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