Staff reported that the City Council would receive a quarterly update on Richmond Green‑Blue New Deal projects, including the receipt of grants for the Richmond Port and Richmond Works, movement toward zero‑emission vehicle transitions, and the Public Works Department’s creation of a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) tool to guide vehicle retirement and replacement. The same report will cover Economic Development Division initiatives, the Macdonald Avenue Corridor Task Force, and the launch of the Façade Program. While this update reflects ongoing implementation rather than a specific new procurement, it signals a pipeline of grant‑funded capital and fleet projects in various stages, with an emerging data‑driven tool for vehicle lifecycle decisions.Vendors in fleet electrification, asset management software, port and workforce program delivery, and grant‑funded capital project execution can track these initiatives for future RFPs covering replacement vehicles, charging infrastructure, planning tools, and program management as the City operationalizes its transition plans.

The update spans several program areas, so vendors should monitor separate Council and staff reports for discrete solicitations tied to electric vehicle transitions, port projects, and workforce initiatives.
