Repairs being completed to water system in Arbor Creek
August 27, 2026 - 3:30pm
The water circulation system serving John Avant Park and Arbor Creek remains offline while repairs are assessed and completed.
Reduced water flow in the creek was initially believed to be caused by sediment buildup in the pond. During maintenance work that began in mid-June, crews identified a failure in the creek bed that required significant repairs. Creek rehabilitation work is underway, and the City is coordinating pond pump intake cleaning for the second week of September. The intake cleaning is expected to be completed alongside the rehabilitation work.
If no unexpected issues arise, the water system is expected to be back up and running once repairs are complete in mid-September.
The City appreciates residents' patience and understanding as this work progresses.

City Council approves temporary Shaw Centre classroom rental agreement
August 27, 2026 - 1:45pm
City Council has approved a temporary facility-use agreement with Greater Saskatoon Catholic Schools (GSCS) to provide classroom space at Shaw Centre for Bethlehem Catholic High School following the fire on August 7, 2026.
The fire caused fire, smoke and water damage to Bethlehem Catholic High School’s attached relocatable classrooms, as well as smoke and water damage in portions of the main school. The temporary agreement will support GSCS as it works to accommodate students and resume school operations.
Under the agreement, designated meeting rooms and multi-purpose space at Shaw Centre will be used as temporary classrooms beginning August 31 through December 31, 2026. The agreement may be extended to the end of the 2026/27 school year if needed and if both parties agree.
The City and GSCS have had a long-standing partnership at the joint-use facility, which includes Shaw Centre, Bethlehem Catholic High School and Tommy Douglas High School. Supporting GSCS during this emergency reflects the City of Saskatoon’s commitment to community safety and well-being through strong local partnerships.
The use of Shaw Centre space for temporary classrooms will affect some fall leisure drop-in programs and room-rental opportunities. Drop-in programs with either move to Cosmo Civic Centre or be rescheduled at Shaw Centre for a different time or day. Patrons are encouraged to check dropinschedule.saskatoon.ca for program updates.
The City appreciates the community’s understanding and flexibility as it supports Bethlehem Catholic High School.
City invites public input on future tax policy; survey to launch fall 2026
August 27, 2026 - 10:07am
The City of Saskatoon is preparing to engage residents, residential and non-residential property owners and renters on the principles, goals and trade-offs City Council may consider when developing a future (property) tax policy.
The City’s tax policy Engage page is now available; it provides residents and stakeholders with background information and an overview of the project’s scope, including the areas where public input will be considered. The tax policy public online survey opens in October 2026. Paper copies of the survey will be available.
The tax policy engagement is focused on how the total municipal property tax revenue requirement, set through the City’s budget process, is shared between residential and non-residential properties. The tax policy engagement project will not decide or influence the City's budget process, service levels, individual property assessments or appeals.
Non-residential properties are sometimes collectively called commercial properties. This tax class includes commercial and industrial properties, agricultural land, elevators, pipelines and railways. Non-profit is not a property tax class.
Reassessment updates property values, and some property types may increase in value faster than others. Tax policy can help manage change in the share of municipal property tax paid by the residential and non-residential property classes as a result of reassessment. All property types in Saskatchewan will be reassessed in 2029.
City Council has historically set a tax ratio at the start of each legislated four-year reassessment cycle. In April 2025, City Council set the current tax ratio at 1.71:1. This means that for every $1.00 in property tax paid by a residential property owner, a non-residential property owner pays $1.71 on an equivalent assessment.
The tax ratio approach distributes the overall municipal property tax requirement between property classes. It does not change the total amount of municipal property tax revenue collected by the City.
Public input received on tax policy principles, goals and trade-offs will help the City understand community priorities, including where residential and non-residential property owner perspectives align and where they differ.
Residents and stakeholders are encouraged to visit the City’s Engage page to review the information and prepare to participate in the October tax policy survey.

City Council approves Climate Action Strategy
August 26, 2026 - 4:00pm
25-year roadmap supports a safer, healthier and more prosperous Saskatoon
Saskatoon City Council has approved the City’s Climate Action Strategy, a 25-year framework that will help the community prepare for the impact of climate change while supporting a safer, healthier and more prosperous future.
The Strategy includes two complementary playbooks: one focused on reducing carbon pollution and another focused on helping Saskatoon adapt to climate-related risks such as extreme heat, flooding, wildfire smoke and severe storms. Guided by principles of equity, reconciliation, prosperity and miyo-pimâtisiwin (the good life), the Strategy supports both corporate leadership and community action.
“Preparing for climate impacts is part of responsible long-term planning,” said Director of Sustainability Jeanna South. “The Climate Action Strategy helps the City identify opportunities to reduce risks, make informed investments and protect the infrastructure and services residents depend on every day.”
The Strategy identifies potential actions that can be considered over time as community needs, technology and funding opportunities evolve. Examples include integrating climate risk into City planning and infrastructure projects, expanding the urban forest, supporting food security initiatives, improving energy efficiency and strengthening community resilience.
Council’s approval of the Strategy does not approve or fund specific projects. Individual initiatives will be considered separately through future decision-making, budgeting and public engagement processes.
The Climate Action Strategy positions Saskatoon to proactively address climate-related risks and changing environmental conditions while supporting a resilient economy, healthy neighbourhoods and reliable municipal services. By taking a long-term approach, the City can better protect community assets, reduce future costs and help ensure Saskatoon remains a safe, vibrant place to live for generations to come.

More Dutch Elm Disease Cases Confirmed
August 25, 2026 - 9:00am
The City of Saskatoon has confirmed nearly two dozen elm trees positive for Dutch elm disease (DED). Of that number, six are on the 200 block of Carleton Drive in the College Park neighbourhood. The infected trees will be removed as part of the City's ongoing response to help slow the spread of the disease.
The six trees are located in a row and represents one of the largest groupings of DED-related elm removals undertaken in Saskatoon to date. A further three removals are happening on the 800 block of Avenue C North, in the Caswell Hill neighbourhood.
The College Park and Caswell HIl cases are among 22 confirmed DED cases identified in Saskatoon so far this year, highlighting the continued spread of the disease across the city. Recent years have seen a significant increase in DED activity, with record case numbers reported in 2025.
"Seeing six mature elm trees removed from a single block and three on another is a reminder of the very real impact Dutch elm disease is having on our neighbourhoods and urban canopy," says Thai Hoang, Director of Parks. "These trees have helped define the character of these streetscapes for decades. While tree removal is never something we take lightly, removing infected trees remains one of the most important actions we can take to help reduce the spread of the disease and protect healthy elms across Saskatoon."
The City will continue surveillance and testing activities in surrounding areas and will inspect nearby properties for stored elm wood, which can harbor elm bark beetles and contribute to the spread of DED. Saskatoon residents are reminded that it is illegal to transport, store, sell or use elm wood. All elm wood must be disposed of appropriately at the City Landfill – there is no charge.
Residents are also encouraged to watch for signs of Dutch elm disease, including yellowing, wilting or browning leaves during the growing season and report suspected cases to the City immediately. Early detection remains a critical component of the City’s DED management efforts.
The provincial elm pruning ban remains in effect annually from April 1 to August 31 to help reduce the risk of spreading the disease.
For more information about Dutch elm disease, including symptoms, regulations and reporting options, visit saskatoon.ca/dutchelmdisease.

Update: Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo details Koda the grizzly bear’s medical condition
August 19, 2026 - 1:00pm
Before Koda’s passing, the Zoo’s animal care and veterinary teams observed changes that raised concern about a possible spinal injury. A post-mortem examination has now confirmed that Koda had a large tumour pressing on his upper spine.
Koda received daily visual health checks from his animal care team and was monitored regularly by veterinary professionals. His last full veterinary examination under anesthesia was completed in June 2024. At that time, there were no clinical signs of the tumour or a condition affecting his spine.
Full examinations for the Zoo’s grizzly bears are typically completed every two to three years, unless an animal’s health or behaviour indicates that an earlier examination is needed. Due to the tumour’s location, it would have required advanced diagnostic imaging, such as a CT scan, to be detected.
When changes in Koda’s condition were observed, animal care and veterinary staff responded promptly and closely assessed his comfort and quality of life. The tumour’s size and location meant it was not surgically treatable. While this finding is difficult, it provides further context for Koda’s recent decline in health and confirms that the difficult decision to humanely euthanize him was made with his comfort and quality of life as the priority.
The Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo is grateful to the animal care and veterinary professionals who provided Koda with knowledgeable, dedicated and compassionate care throughout his life.
To learn more about Koda’s life, legacy and the original announcement from the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo, read the original news release: Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo mourns the loss of Koda the grizzly bear

The Transit Code supports safe, respectful rides this fall
August 17, 2026 - 12:27pm
Saskatoon Transit is preparing for the busy fall season and the new Saskatoon Transit Bylaw that is in effect September 1. Riders will begin seeing The Transit Code advertising campaign across the transit system and throughout the community. The campaign supports the new Saskatoon Transit Bylaw and helps customers understand expected behaviour on transit in simple, easy-to-understand language.
The Transit Code focuses on the actions that help create a safe, welcoming and respectful transit experience, including respecting others, paying your fare, offering priority seating when needed, keeping aisles clear and helping keep transit spaces clean.
"Most riders already get on board with The Transit Code every day," said Mike Moellenbeck, Director of Saskatoon Transit. "This campaign is about reinforcing the positive behaviours we see across the system and helping customers understand how we can all contribute to a better transit experience."
The new Saskatoon Transit Bylaw establishes clear and consistent expectations related to fare payment, customer conduct, transit property and enforcement. The Transit Code serves as the public-facing guide to those expectations while the bylaw provides the framework that supports them.
Over the coming weeks, customers will see Transit Code messages on buses, at terminals and shelters, online, on social media, through radio advertising and in community outreach activities.
With thousands of students returning to school and ridership increasing during the fall season, Saskatoon Transit and Saskatoon Police Service will also be conducting education and fare validation activities throughout the system. Riders can expect to see a more visible police presence at terminals, on buses and at other high-ridership locations. The focus is on education, awareness and compliance, helping customers understand expectations while supporting a safe and welcoming transit environment.
Customers can learn more about The Transit Code and the Saskatoon Transit Bylaw at SaskatoonTransit.ca/code.
Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo mourns the loss of Koda the grizzly bear
August 17, 2026 - 12:15pm
The Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo is deeply saddened to announce that Koda, one of the Zoo’s most recognized and beloved animals, was humanely euthanized following a recent decline in his health.
Koda was monitored daily by his dedicated animal care team as part of the Zoo’s routine animal welfare practices. When staff recently observed a decline in his health, they continued to monitor his condition, comfort and quality of life closely. Following consultation and careful consideration, the decision was made to humanely euthanize Koda.
“This was an exceptionally difficult decision for the entire animal care team,” said Jeff Mitchell, Zoo Manager. “Koda was deeply cared for by the staff who worked with him every day. Our priority was to make the most compassionate decision for him, guided by his welfare and quality of life.”
Koda’s journey began as an orphaned cub from the Jasper area. He was rescued and nurtured by zookeepers at the Edmonton Valley Zoo before being paired with Mistaya at the Calgary Zoo. The pair were later transferred to the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo, where Koda spent the past 18 years as a well-known and valued member of the Zoo family.
At the Saskatoon Zoo, Koda was supported by animal care specialists who observed him closely each day and tailored his care, training and enrichment to his individual needs. Through positive-reinforcement training, enrichment activities and daily monitoring, staff supported Koda’s physical and mental well-being throughout his life.
For many visitors and staff, Koda will be remembered for the joyful moments he shared with his brother, Mistaya, from playful wrestling and splashing in the pool to foraging together in their habitat. The Zoo’s celebration of the bears’ 20th birthday last year was a special opportunity to recognize Koda and the place he held in the hearts of staff and visitors.
Animal care specialists will also remember Koda’s enthusiasm for training sessions and his careful habit of checking Mistaya’s feeding area after meals, just in case his brother had left something behind.
The Zoo recognizes the close bond Koda and Mistaya shared. Animal care specialists will continue to monitor Mistaya closely, paying attention to his behaviour, activity and overall well-being. His daily care and enrichment plan will be adapted as needed to support him as he adjusts to this transition.
Throughout his life, Koda was an important ambassador for his species, helping visitors connect with the importance of wildlife conservation, habitat protection and responsible human-wildlife interactions.
Koda’s passing will be felt by visitors, staff and community members who came to know him over the years. The Zoo extends its appreciation to the animal care professionals who provided Koda with knowledgeable, compassionate and dedicated care throughout his life.
Community members are invited to sign a memorial card for Koda, which will be available at the Kinsmen Bear Habitat later this week. The card will provide an opportunity for visitors to share their memories and say goodbye to a bear who was an important part of the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo family for 18 years.
Thank you, Koda, for the memories. You will be missed.

Update: Saskatoon Transit smart card sales and reloads resume
August 11, 2026 - 10:00am
Saskatoon Transit has resumed reloadable smart card sales and reloads following a temporary disruption caused by a software update. Customers can now visit a participating vendor or the Transit Customer Service Centre to purchase or reload a new smart card.
During the disruption, active fare products on reloadable smart cards continued to function normally. Mobile tickets through the TGo and Transit apps and cash fares also remained available. Valid fare payment is required on Saskatoon Transit vehicles.
As a reminder, starting September 1, 2026, old smart cards will no longer work. Riders with old cards are encouraged to exchange them for a new reloadable smart card before September 1. The $5 card activation fee is waived when exchanging an existing card. Existing cards with balances must be transferred at the Transit Customer Service Centre.
Thank you for your patience and understanding while this issue was resolved.

Special Household Hazardous Waste Drop-off Day this Saturday, August 15
August 10, 2026 - 1:00pm
- The program is open to residents with household products only – no commercial loads will be accepted.
- Containers used for transporting HHW may not be returned to participants and those used for transporting gasoline will NOT be returned.
- Please ensure all containers are safely sealed and contents are clearly marked.
- To avoid potentially long line-ups and wait times, ask the Waste Wizard at saskatoon.ca/wastewizard to find other options for recycling and safe disposal.
- There are no public washrooms available at the MRC.
The City of Saskatoon is excited to share the continued success of the residential Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) drop-off program. Since its return in May, we've seen an amazing response from residents committed to the proper and safe disposal of household hazardous waste.
HHW is accepted every Wednesday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Material Recovery Centre (MRC), located at 42 Valley Road.
As a reminder, this program is seasonal and the last drop-off day of the year will be Wednesday, October 28, 2026 (subject to weather).
The City will once again offer two special weekend drop-off days for more convenience. The first event takes place this Saturday, August 15, with a second event on Saturday, September 26. Both events run from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Sort & Go at the MRC.
The HHW collection program makes it easier for residents to safely dispose of items that should not go in regular waste carts or bins because they can harm the environment, pose risks to public health and create safety hazards for staff.
Accepted items include aerosols, automotive fluids, cleaners, cylinders, light bulbs, yard chemicals and more. Complete lists of acceptable and unacceptable items are available at saskatoon.ca/hazardouswaste.
Batteries are one of the most commonly dropped off items at HHW drop-off days. Worth noting, they are accepted daily for free at Sort & Go at the MRC. Batteries can also be dropped off at any SARCAN depot. You can also visit recycleyourbatteries.ca to find other drop-off locations in your area.
The City encourages residents to take advantage of this free service to ensure these harmful materials are handled and disposed of safely.
Reminders:
Thank you for helping us put waste in the right place!
Update: Highway 16 to reopen at Boychuk Drive

Full closure of Melville Street for sewer construction beginning the week of August 10
August 7, 2026 - 1:30pm
Crews will begin work on the Melville Street Sanitary Trunk project beginning the week of August 10. This will mean a full closure of Melville Street at the Jasper Avenue South intersection for approximately two and a half months, although schedules are subject to change due to weather or unforeseen circumstances.
New sanitary sewer infrastructure is being installed as part of a larger effort to improve the system’s capacity and support future development in the area.
During construction, traffic restrictions will be in place and motorists should expect delays. Signage will be in place to guide motorists, pedestrians and cyclists safely through the area.
Drivers are encouraged to follow posted detours and use caution when travelling near construction zones.
