Construction on two new dry storm ponds begins this month in Cumberland Park and on University of Saskatchewan (USask) land adjacent to 14th St E. They are the fifth and sixth of nine Flood Control Strategy (FCS) projects the City of Saskatoon has undertaken, which will be completed in 2026.

The Cumberland Park project will reduce the flood risk for properties near the intersection of Cumberland Avenue South and Main Street, while the USask project will reduce the flood risk for properties near the intersection of Cumberland Avenue South and 14th Street East. The FCS, aimed at reducing neighbourhood flooding during intense rainfalls, was approved by City Council in 2018. 

Dry storm ponds hold water that would otherwise cause flooding in intersections and nearby properties during intense rainfalls. The water flows into the pond instead, then slowly drains into the storm sewer system. Whenever dry, it is used as recreational or park space.

The first three dry ponds constructed as part of the FCS are complete and open to the public in W.W. Ashley Park. Churchill Park, and Weaver Park. The fourth project, which includes underground storm water storage in Brevoort Park South is in service to mitigate flooding, with landscaping work to commence this year. Additionally, three more FCS projects will be built in Saskatoon in 2026 and 2027. 

For more information about the FCS program and future project locations, visit saskatoon.ca/floodplan.

On May 27, Cosmo Civic Centre was designated as an evacuation site for residents of northern Saskatchewan and is currently temporarily closed to the public.

To better serve residents and our northern guests, the City has reopened the customer service kiosk at Cosmo Civic Centre for transit ticket sales, leisure admission sales and renewals, program registrations, rental payments and the purchase of Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo season passes. The customer service kiosk is open from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., daily.

Drop-in programming and facility rentals continue to be suspended until further notice. To find available programming at the City’s other leisure facilities, visit dropinschedule.saskatoon.ca.

The Carlyle King Branch Library continues to remain open at this time.

We appreciate your patience and understanding during this emergency response.
