Monday, August 8, 2016, at 3:00 p.m. marked the close for the Request For Proposal (RFP) to build, own and operate an 'A' Horse Racing Facility in or near Edmonton.
At the time of closing, Horse Racing Alberta (HRA) had received four (4) RFP documents. The RFP documents have been provided to the selection committee for their review and recommendation to the board of HRA.
HRA anticipates mid-September for completion of the evaluation and recommendations, however, no firm timeline has been established for this process.
In late June, six parties -- Alberta Downs, Century Casinos Inc., Enoch Cree Nation, FNH Development Corporation, Siksika Resource Development Ltd., and Yurwynn Entertainment Group Inc. -- were invited to participate in the RFP process.
