From the meeting
At the September 1, 2026 meeting, council endorsed the Ahkmahksis Reservoir Expansion as the District's source water solution. Staff were also authorized to continue engagement with the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation and to explore Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) or another progressive delivery model. That makes this a live capital project with delivery approach still being shaped.
Water infrastructure, engineering, and project-delivery firms should track the next procurement step.
