From the meeting
Council was asked to support Banff's 2026 application to the Forest Resource Improvement Association of Alberta (FRIAA) grant program. The specific ask was for a Wildland-Urban Interface Live Field Exercise involving multiple Bow Valley response agencies. The town said FRIAA funding had already supported FireSmart and vegetation management work, with more than $900,000 approved to date.
The new support motion was needed before the application could proceed.

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.

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