Cottage Grove board advances RFP for joint fire and EMS study; selection to occur at Dec. 8 joint meeting
Summary
Trustees directed staff to proceed with the RFP process for a fire and EMS study, selecting Option A1, scheduling selection at a joint meeting Dec. 8 and choosing funding option C; motion carried with one abstention.
The Village of Cottage Grove voted to move forward with the request-for-proposals process for a fire and EMS study and to schedule selection at a joint meeting of the two boards on Dec. 8.
The agenda packet included three memos: a summary of the town meeting discussion, historical materials, and a revised RFP timeline. Trustee Severson moved to proceed with Option A1, to schedule selection at a joint board meeting on Dec. 8, and to use funding option C; Trustee Dahl seconded the motion. The motion carried; the board recorded at least one abstention during the voice vote.
Staff said the revised RFP timeline sets submission and review dates and noted previous attempts produced no respondents, prompting the updated schedule and outreach in advance of the joint selection meeting. The board asked staff to proceed with the RFP as revised and to continue outreach to potential vendors.
What's next: staff will publish the RFP according to the revised timeline and coordinate a joint selection meeting with the partner board on Dec. 8.
