What is the Official Community Plan?
All property in the City of Saskatoon is assigned a land use designation under the City of Saskatoon’s Official Community Plan, Bylaw No. 9700. Land use designations establish the general use and character of a site or area to help ensure that development takes place in an orderly, rational manner. Each land use designation is distinct in its purpose and density/intensity of use.
What is a Rezoning?
All property in the City of Saskatoon is assigned a zoning designation under the Zoning Bylaw No. 9990, 2024. Within each zoning designation, specific land uses are either permitted, prohibited, or discretionary.
Applications to change the zoning designation of a property may be considered through a rezoning process, which includes review by City Administration and engagement with the surrounding neighbourhood. All rezoning applications require a decision by City Council at a Public Hearing upon conclusion of the process.
