The Proposed Project

The proposed project involves construction of a new health clinic in the Little Pine First Nation core community area. The new health clinic will be administrated and operated by Battle River Treaty 6 Health Centre (BRT6), and is intended to replace the community's current aging and undersized facility. The new clinic will have an area of approximately 1,300 square metres, and will be either a single or two-story design to provide room for a wide variety of health and wellness programming currently not possible in the existing facility. The facility will tie into existing water, sanitary, power, and natural gas service lines nearby, and is anticipated to have a lifespan of at least 50 years.
