THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
For the June 18, 2026 agenda, Public Works submitted a tentative detailed work plan budget for FY 2026‑27 mosquito control, to be approved by the Board and submitted to FDACS by July 15, 2026 as required by Florida Statute Chapter 388. FDACS proposes state funding of 69,587.50 dollars, matched by county ad valorem and other sources, for a total mosquito control budget of 286,130.50 dollars. The work plan includes staffing several seasonal mosquito control operator positions, purchasing two new ULV units, and maintaining an Enterprise fleet of seven leased spray trucks.
The plan shows 76,687.50 dollars budgeted for chemicals, 40,000 dollars for two new ULV sprayers, and almost 61,000 dollars in annual principal and interest payments on the leased trucks. Vendors supplying insecticides, ULV sprayers, GPS/tablet systems, and fleet leasing or maintenance support can respond to upcoming purchasing actions embedded in this work plan, which structures the operational needs for the 2026‑27 mosquito season once approved by the Board and FDACS.
Work plan includes purchase of tablets or GPS upgrades (about $3,100) and specifies use of Permethrin 4‑4 for adulticiding and various larvicides; state grant component is $69,587.50.

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 Columbia County issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Columbia County'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 Columbia County 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.
