From the meeting
At its October 6, 2026 meeting, council was asked to support the Athabasca Corridor pre-feasibility and trade connectivity initiative. Cairnstone Planning Inc. said Athabasca Northwestern Corridor Development Inc.
is applying to the federal Trade Diversification Corridors Fund for pre-feasibility planning and engagement. Council's action would not fund the project, but it signals whether the town backs the grant application and corridor planning effort.

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.
