Town of Coaldale - Request for Proposal - Town of Coaldale - Request for Proposals for Urban Forest Management Plan

The Town of Coaldale is seeking a qualified consulting firm to develop a comprehensive Urban Forest Management Plan under a grant from the Federation of Canadian Municipalities Green Municipal Fund through the Growing Canada’s Community Canopies initiative. The existing plan, last updated in 2009, is outdated and no longer aligns with current community growth patterns, revised climate projections, or contemporary urban forestry standards. The new plan will provide a forward-looking, evidence-based strategy to guide the management, enhancement, and sustainability of Coaldale’s urban forest over the next 10 to 20 years, ensuring it meets environmental, social, and resilience goals in alignment with GCCC funding requirements and industry best practices. Proposals must be submitted by May 29, 2026, under solicitation number AB-2026-03647, with the contract falling under NAICS code 541690 for other scientific and technical consulting services. The request is issued by the Town of Coaldale, though listed under the Government of Canada’s procurement portal, and responses are to be directed to Scott Boyd, Contracting Authority, via email at scott.boyd@coaldale.ca. Work will be conducted in Alberta, with no specific office address provided, and the selected consultant will be responsible for delivering a detailed, actionable urban forest management framework that supports long-term ecological health and community well-being.
