Committee clarifies RFQ seeks qualifications, sets question deadline
Summary
At its July 15 meeting, the Town of Newfields Public Safety Building Committee clarified that the RFQ requests only qualifications (not proposals), set the question deadline as the meeting day, and agreed to compile questions and answers for distribution to all respondents.
John Hayden, acting as chair, told the committee the RFQ is requesting qualifications only and not full proposals, and he noted that the day of the meeting (July 15, 2026) was the deadline for RFQ questions.
Hayden said the committee will compile all submitted questions and the committee’s answers into a single document or email and send it to everyone who provided contact information to ensure transparency. He said the only substantive respondent question identified was whether a cost proposal was required; the committee’s answer was no. The discussion also emphasized that respondents unfamiliar with the RFQ process should review prior meeting minutes and recordings for context.
