Priority Street Snow Removal is underway
January 6, 2026 - 10:30am
City and contractor crews have begun snow removal operations on priority roads across the city. This is expected to take up to eight weeks, barring any unforeseen weather events.
Snow removal is different from snow clearing, which includes regular plowing and grading. During snow removal, accumulated and windrowed snow is physically removed and hauled to one of three City-operated snow storage facilities. Priority street snow removal is activated when on-street storage capacity is reached, in order to create capacity for future snowfalls.
This work also helps restore full driving lane width and improve sightlines at intersections. This work is typically done at night to reduce the risk to workers, traffic, cyclists and pedestrians.
Snow is not stored or windrowed within posted accessibility parking stalls, school loading zones or Saskatoon Transit stops.
If another snow event occurs during snow removal operations, crews will temporarily return to regular plowing and grading activities to maintain safety and mobility. Once priority routes are again passable, crews will resume snow removal work.
Residents are reminded to watch for blue and amber flashing lights and to give road maintenance equipment the space needed to operate safely, particularly during periods of reduced visibility.
More information about winter road maintenance and service levels is available at saskatoon.ca/snow.

Starting today, January 5, the City of Saskatoon will begin mailing 2026 Assessment Notices to about 14,000 property owners who have had changes to their property’s assessment, tax status or ownership since January 1, 2025. These notices provide updated information that helps determine property taxes for the upcoming year.
The City’s 2026 Assessment Roll is now open for public review
From January 5 to February 6, 2026, property owners can review their property’s assessment details or look up other properties in Saskatoon. This review period is an opportunity to confirm the information the City has on file for your property.
“The 30-Day Assessment Review and Appeal period is an important time for property owners to check their assessment for accuracy, fairness and equity,” says Bryce Trew, City Assessor. “Our team is here to answer your assessment-related questions, connect with us first before considering filing a formal appeal in 2026.”
How to review the 2026 Assessment Roll
Take time to review your property’s assessed value. If something doesn’t look right, you have 30 days, from January 5 – February 6, 2026, to file a formal appeal (fees apply). You do not need to receive a 2026 Assessment Notice to file an appeal in 2026.
Assessment appeal hearings are public, and documents filed will be posted online, subject to exceptions under The Cities Act.
