Strategic Plan
The 2022-2025 Strategic Plan was adopted on January 31, 2022.
The Strategic Plan is a guiding document that sets the strategic direction and priorities for the City of Saskatoon over the next four years. Along with the Official Community Plan and the Multi-Year Business Plan and Budget, the Strategic Plan ensures City programs and services continue to address the changing needs of our community.
It's important to remember that our strategy will not cover all the important work that we do as a City. Instead, our strategy will speak specifically to the changes and improvements that we plan to make over a period of time to ensure that Saskatoon remains one of the best cities to live, work, learn and play.
The Strat Plan is a ‘living document’. It's monitored to assess progress and support successful outcomes.
