WATCH FOR CITY OF SASKATOON 2013 REPORT TO CITIZENS DELIVERED SUNDAY, OCTOBER 12
The City of Saskatoon’s 2013 Report to Citizens – Investing in a 21st Century City will be delivered city-wide this Sunday, October 12 with the Sunday Phoenix. The Report to Citizens provides a briefer, condensed version of the full 2013 Annual Report, released in August 2014.
The Report to Citizens details many of the City’s successes achieved last year through major projects and initiatives. It reveals highlights of a progressive 2013 - a year of financial stability with a continued triple-A credit rating, and rapid growth on all fronts. Saskatoon’s population was 248,700 at year-end, the unemployment rate was on the decline, and we had one of the most business friendly climates in Canada.
The City’s 2013 highlights are released at this time of year as we tie the report in with the Summary of Consolidated Financial Statements, which outline the City of Saskatoon’s financial position as of December 31st, 2013. The Audited Summary of Consolidated Financial Statements is released several months after year end.
The 2013 Report to Citizens showcases the City’s positive gains in several areas including recreation, transportation, finance, police, fire, utilities, the environment, and urban planning. It reinforces why Saskatoon continues to be a great place to live, where sustainable growth enables the community to invest for the benefit of all.
