New! MyProperty is now available, access official City notices online in one secure place
October 6, 2026 - 9:54am
- On all paper property tax notices mailed in May 2026
- On all paper utility bills since June 2026
- On all electronic eBill notification emails since August 2026
- MyProperty has replaced My Utility Account and former My Utility Account credentials will not carry over to MyProperty. All services previously available through My Utility Account are now available through MyProperty.
- Existing eBill customers will need to set up a MyProperty account to continue accessing detailed utility billing information.
MyProperty, the City’s new secure online self-service portal, is now available. The launch of MyProperty, a service many residents have requested, is another step in the City’s commitment to continuous improvement and making it easier, more convenient and more accessible to do business with the City of Saskatoon.
MyProperty replaces My Utility Account and, for the first time, introduces optional online access to current and historical property tax and assessment information.
Residents who prefer to continue receiving paper notices do not need to take any action.
It’s easy to get started with MyProperty right from the homepage of saskatoon.ca
Enter your 10-digit personal access code, and details when prompted, to set up your MyProperty account. You will only use this code once, during initial account set-up.
Once your account is created, you can securely access official City information in one convenient location, including property tax and assessment eNotices, eBill utility billing details, SmartUtil and more. Learn more about what you can access and download through MyProperty.
MyProperty 10-digit access codes were sent to residents through several channels:
If you want to set up your MyProperty account but cannot locate your access code, please contact Corporate Revenue Customer Service at 306-975-2400 (M to F 8:30am to 4:30pm) or email revenue@saskatoon.ca for assistance.
Key MyProperty sign-in information
MyProperty uses a new public sign-in method that is different from the username-and-password process currently used by other City of Saskatoon online services.
You can choose to receive a one-time verification code by email each time you sign in, or sign in using an existing Google or Apple account.
For existing eBill customers and My Utility Account users:
Looking to access other City of Saskatoon online services?
To help residents reach the correct sign-in method for other online City services they want to use, the previous “Sign-In” option in the top-right banner of the City’s website homepage has been removed.
To access other City online services such as ePermitting or Business Licence Online, continue using your existing username and password. Go directly to the online City service you need, and you will be directed to the appropriate sign-in process.
Reminder: If you use more than one City of Saskatoon online service, you may have different sign-in methods. Visit saskatoon.ca/login-support for helpful information.

Fall with style: Annual street sweeping in select neighbourhoods begins October 13
October 6, 2026 - 9:00am
Beginning October 13, crews will be heading to Saskatoon’s leafiest neighbourhoods to help keep streets clear of leaves and reducing the potential for spring flooding.
This year includes Nutana, Holiday Park, Varsity View, Mayfair, Buena Vista, Riversdale, City Park, King George, Exhibition and Caswell Hill.
Residents can check when their street is scheduled to be swept at saskatoon.ca/sweep.
“Leaves that accumulate along streets can clog storm drains and catch basins, creating a risk of flooding when the snow melts,” says Cam LeClaire, Roadways Manager. “By sweeping the leafiest streets before winter, we help protect City infrastructure and keep neighbourhoods safer and cleaner for everyone.”
Before the sweep, residents can help crews complete the work efficiently by removing leaves from sidewalks and boulevards next to your property without piling them in the street. Large leaf piles can slow down street sweepers. Residents can use a green cart or take leaves to a City compost depot.
During the sweep, watch for temporary yellow No Parking signs and move vehicles from the street by 7:00 a.m. on your sweep day. Vehicles left in signed areas may be ticketed or towed.
If a vehicle is towed, use the Find My Vehicle! tool or contact the Customer Care Centre at 306-975-2476.
Weather or other factors may affect the sweeping schedule. Follow along on the City’s social media channels and find your sweep day at saskatoon.ca/sweep.
