THE 30-SECOND BRIEF

What's planned

Ashland Parks Foundation submitted a June 23, 2026 pre-application for the "Lithia Pavilion" at the Lithia Park ice rink, replacing the temporary seasonal cover and trailers with a permanent steel pavilion and accessory building. The proposal adds a year-round covered rink/event space, new plaza, skate rental, concessions, bathrooms, Zamboni garage, tree/landscape changes, parking reconfiguration, and a setback variance on Winburn Way. Funding will come from private donations, and detailed plaza, tree, and utility plans will be developed for the formal land use application, leaving design, cost planning, and construction partners still in play.

Background

Project depends on private fundraising; no public funding planned. Variance requested to build cover to property line and rework parking and plaza. Multi-use programming (skating, markets, events) suggests future AV, lighting, and operations needs.

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 City of Ashland issue an RFP for this project?

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Ashland's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
