Saskatoon City Council approved the South Caswell Concept Plan (Concept Plan) in 2010 to help guide redevelopment in the area once the Saskatoon Transit facility is relocated to the new Civic Operations Centre in early 2017.  To ensure the Concept Plan meets current goals and priorities, the City of Saskatoon (City) will be making updates and amendments based on community and stakeholder feedback.
The public is invited to an open house to learn about the existing Concept Plan and the amendment process moving forward.  Environmental and structural assessments have also been recently completed by consultants’ and the findings will be presented to begin the discussion on potential reuse of transit buildings and vacant spaces.  Civic staff will be in attendance to provide information, answer questions, and gather feedback. Further public events will follow in 2015.
