All property in the City of Saskatoon is assigned a zoning designation under Zoning Bylaw No. 9900. Within each zone, different land uses are either permitted, discretionary, or prohibited and are subject to certain development standards.

In some instances, a regulatory tool called a Zoning Agreement is used when a specific development is proposed as part of a rezoning application. A Zoning Agreement is a binding legal agreement that, if approved by City Council, is tied to the land and ensures that only the proposal put forward by the applicant can be constructed on the property. The Agreement may specify permitted uses of the land and standards respecting building form, site layout, and other considerations.

Application Process

1. Review by City Departments: When an application to amend the Zoning Map is received, the Planning and Development team checks if it follows the City's Official Community Plan, Zoning Bylaw and other rules. They also send it to other city departments to look at the technical details, such as if the water, wastewater, stormwater and transportation systems can support the proposal.
2. Public Engagement: After the internal review by the City, the public gets a chance to look at the proposal, ask questions and give feedback. Property owners within 75-150 meters of the site, the Community Association and the Ward Councillor are notified and invited to comment. For this application, a public meeting will be held where information will be provided, and questions can be asked.
3. Report Preparation: Planning and Development writes a report with a recommendation on the application. This report includes feedback from the internal review and the public.
4. Municipal Planning Commission Review: The report is first reviewed by the Municipal Planning Commission, which advises City Council.
5. City Council Decision: The final decision is made by City Council at a Public Hearing. They consider the report, the recommendation and the feedback from the Municipal Planning Commission. Anyone from the public can submit written comments or speak at the hearing.
