BF-Municipal Office-1 2026 - Municipal Strategic Planning Proposal

The Village of Burk’s Falls is a single tier Municipality located 165 miles north of Toronto on the Highway 11 corridor between Huntsville and North Bay at the junction of Highways 11 and 520 in the District of Parry Sound. Burk's Falls encompasses 780 acres with 435 households and a population of 981 residents who enjoy a balance of small-town living while being within easy reach of a larger urban town. 

The Municipality is seeking proposals from qualified consultants or firms to support the development of a comprehensive and forward-looking Strategic Plan. The overall goal of this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to engage an experienced partner to design and facilitate an inclusive and participatory strategic planning process that reflects the Municipality’s priorities, values, and long-term direction.

Through collaboration with Council, staff, and key stakeholders, the successful proponent will help ensure that a broad range of perspectives informs the planning process. The consultant will be expected to assess both internal and external factors influencing the organization and assist in articulating a clear mission, vision, values (if required), strategic priorities, and measurable goals. The outcome of this work will be a written Strategic Plan that is practical, actionable, and aligned with the Municipality’s available resources, providing clear guidance to support informed decision-making and organizational success.
