 Project Status Update 

The project has completed a bid evaluation process and is looking to secure and finalize all project funds within the next month. Construction is set to begin in June 2023. The team continues to work through the building permit approvals process with the City of Whitehorse.

 Project Timeline 

 General Contractor Tender Update 

The Tender closed on March 21, 2023 and the bid evaluation process took place at the end of March. The bid evaluation process incorporated numerous elements of the Yukon Government’s Yukon First Nations Procurement Policy. Further information about the Yukon First Nations Procurement Policy can be found here. Through the bid evaluation process, CYFN identified the top-ranking proponent. The contract will be awarded when capital funding is fully confirmed and secured.

Thank you!
