Electric vehicle charging stations fees take effect today at Lakewood and Lawson Civic Centres
October 30, 2025 - 6:30am
Effective today, following a City Council decision in August, the electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at Lakewood and Lawson Civic Centres will begin charging user fees. Council approved a rate of $5.35 per hour. Fees can be paid using the ChargePoint app, RFID card, and directly with credit cards or through digital wallet.
User fees are in effect 24 hours a day, including weekends, evenings, statutory and other holidays. The maximum charging duration is three hours. Onsite signage is in place to provide more information to users.
These EV charging stations were installed in May 2023 as part of a free two-year pilot project and received steady use and positive feedback. City Council decided to implement the new hourly rate at the August 27, 2025, meeting.

Council defers decision on proposed Event Centre and Convention Centre operator Agreement Framework
October 29, 2025 - 2:10pm
City Council has, at its October 29 Regular Business Meeting, deferred a decision on a proposed private partner Agreement Framework with OVG360 (OVG) which would have begun to create a third-party operating management structure for the Downtown District Event Centre and Convention Centre.
Council voted unanimously to defer a discussion on the proposed framework until the first quarter of 2026 to further process the information, consider negotiated points and have an opportunity to discuss with impacted organizations.
The proposed agreement framework presented to Council set out $15 million in up-front capital plus a projected $235 million in forecasted operating revenue sharing over the full potential 30-year term, in contrast with the previous agreement which estimated a projected $170 million (combined capital and operating revenue) over 25 years.
The proposed agreement would reduce financial risk for the City: if there are Event Centre losses, those would be absorbed by OVG. The proposed agreement also addresses community benefits including economic opportunities for traditionally marginalized groups, employment that will work with existing employees and unions, and benefits for community non-profit events.
For more information on OVG360 please visit oakviewgroup.com/ovg360/.

City Compost Depot closing for the season on Saturday, November 8
October 29, 2025 - 10:00am
The City’s Compost Depot is set to close on Saturday, November 8. Residents can continue to drop off excess yard waste until the depot closes for the season.
In addition to dropping off yard waste, residents can still take part in the Dig-Your-Own compost program. Residents can self-load up to 1 cubic yard of compost and mulch at no cost, subject to weather and while supplies last.
The Compost Depot is located at Highway 7 and 11th Street and is open 7 days a week, from 9:00 a.m. to 5:50 p.m. Access to the site is subject to weather and site conditions.
The City Compost Depot does NOT accept elm wood, treated and untreated lumber, building materials, garbage, or any animal waste/litter. Food waste is also NOT accepted for drop-off at the compost depot; selected food waste may be composted at home and all food waste can now be placed in green carts.
Residents can also pick up compost at Sort & Go at the Material Recovery Centre (MRC) until the pilot program ends on Saturday, November 8. The MRC is located at 42 Valley Road and is open 7 days a week from 8:30 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. Reminder: the pilot program is only for compost pick-up. No yard waste will be accepted at the MRC.

New transitional housing opens doors for support, safety and stability
October 24, 2025 - 10:30am
- Aggie’s House will operate as short term housing, offering immediate refuge, wraparound supports and access to meals through a shared kitchen.
- Shirley’s House will provide longer-term transitional housing where residents will have private kitchens, purchase their own groceries and pay rent as they prepare to reintegrate into the broader community.
- $7.6 million from Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation
- A subsidy from Indigenous Services Canada
- $540,000 from Saskatchewan Housing Corporation
- $540,000 from the City of Saskatoon, along with a permit rebate and a five-year incremental abatement
- $1.4 million from the National Indigenous Collaborative Housing Incorporated
The City of Saskatoon, in collaboration with the governments of Canada and Saskatchewan, Indigenous Services Canada (ISC), and the National Indigenous Collaborative Housing Incorporated (NICHI), is proud to announce the official opening of Aggie’s and Shirley’s House, a transformative new transitional housing development designed to provide safe, culturally appropriate support for Indigenous women, children and 2SLGBTQI+ individuals fleeing domestic violence.
Located in the Kensington neighbourhood, this thoughtfully designed development will be operated by Central Urban Métis Federation Inc. (CUMFI) and features two distinct wings with a total of 20 fully furnished units:
This vital project was made possible through the generous contributions of multiple funding partners, including:
In addition to safe and stable housing, residents will have access to trauma-informed counselling and therapeutic supports provided by Elders, responding to a growing need for culturally grounded healing services in Saskatoon.
Aggie’s and Shirley’s House represents a significant step forward in addressing the urgent need for transitional housing and healing spaces for those in the Indigenous community. This project embodies a unified commitment to fostering reconciliation, cultivating safety and empowering individuals through stable housing.
QUOTES
"The City of Saskatoon is proud to contribute to the development of Aggie’s and Shirley’s House. Our support reflects our commitment to collaborative, community-driven solutions to urgent housing needs. This project is a powerful example of what can be achieved when all levels of government, Indigenous organizations, and community partners come together. We are deeply grateful to everyone involved in making this vision a reality and look forward to the positive impact these homes will have on the lives of those who need them most." - Mayor Cynthia Block
“In partnership with Indigenous-led organizations and all levels of government, we’re proud to help bring Aggie and Shirley’s Shelter to life—a vital refuge for Saskatoon’s most vulnerable. These emergency and transitional housing units will offer Indigenous women, children, and 2SLGBTQI+ community members a safe place to heal, rebuild, and thrive—supported by services rooted in culture, dignity, and care.” – The Honourable Mandy Gull-Masty, Minister of Indigenous Services Canada
“Far too many vulnerable people fleeing violence struggle to find safe, stable housing. That’s why the work CUMFI is doing here in Saskatoon is so important — and why our federal government was proud to partner with them in this work. Together with Indigenous partners, non-profits, and all levels of government, we’re helping ensure that safe, affordable homes are within reach for everyone who needs them.” – The Honourable Buckley Belanger, Secretary of State (Rural Development) and Member of Parliament for Desnethé —Missinippi—Churchill River
“Transitional housing is a critical component in supporting those who need security and stability to build a brighter future. Aggie’s and Shirley’s House expands access to short-term and transitional housing in Saskatoon, giving individuals and families a safe, secure place to heal and rebuild their lives”. – The Honourable Terry Jenson, Minister of Social Services and Minister Responsible for Saskatchewan Housing Corporation (SHC)
NICHI is proud to support the Central Urban Metis Federation (CUMFI) Grand Opening with $1.46 million in funding toward a transformative project for 20 units of 1-3 bedrooms. Aggie's and Shirley's House will provide critical shelter and transitional housing for Indigenous women and 2SLGBTQQIA+ individuals and their children fleeing domestic violence. This initiative reflects our commitment under the Urban, Rural and Northern housing strategy to safe, culturally grounded spaces that foster healing and resilience." – John Gordon, CEO National Indigenous Collaborative Housing Incorporated (NICHI)
“CUMFI’s vision for the emergency and second stage intimate partner violence homes for Indigenous women and Two-Spirit has always been that it will be a safe welcoming environment at a time when no place seems safe.” - Shirley Isbister, Central Urban Métis Federation Inc. (CUMFI) President

City wrapping up 2025 construction season; shifting to winter operations
October 23, 2025 - 11:00am
- Resurfacing of Warman Road northbound from 33rd Street to Circle Drive
- Water main and underground valve replacements on 4th Avenue between 22nd Street and 24th Street
- Continued construction on 8th Street between Brighton Boulevard and McOrmond Drive to improve access to Brighton and the future Holmwood community
- Brighton Boulevard construction nearing completion, with an opening anticipated later this year
- Water main replacements in several neighbourhoods including Riversdale, City Park, Caswell Hill, and Adelaide/Churchill. These upgrades help maintain water quality, improve water flow, and reduce the likelihood of water main breaks.
The City of Saskatoon (City) is winding down another busy construction season. The Broadway Bridge, which has been undergoing major rehabilitation since April, is expected to open at the end of this month, and other projects and road maintenance initiatives will continue until the weather gets too cold.
“This year brought a high volume of work across the city,” says Terry Schmidt, General Manager of Transportation and Construction. “We tackled a major bridge rehabilitation, conducted several major water and sewer infrastructure upgrades and continued to build the infrastructure necessary for the future Link transit system, all while keeping pace with regular road, bridge and sidewalk maintenance. We appreciate the patience and support of Saskatoon residents.”
A key focus in 2025 was the expansion of Link, Saskatoon’s bus rapid transit system scheduled to launch in 2028. By the end of the year, 33 new station platforms will be completed, bringing the total to 41 since construction began in 2024. An additional 44 platforms are planned for 2026. The City is also finalizing procurement for new bus shelters for the newly constructed platforms that will feature digital information displays and street furniture, with installation expected to begin next year.
Notable projects completed this year include:
In total, the City improved approximately 200 lane kilometres of roads, constructed 4 kilometres of new roads, and replaced more than 10 kilometres of sidewalks. Nearly 6 kilometers of water mains were replaced or rehabilitated this year.
As construction activities wind down, the City is shifting focus to winter road maintenance. Roadways staff are prepared for snow and ice management to provide safe and accessible streets throughout the winter months.
Residents can learn more about current and upcoming construction by viewing the Road Restrictions and Construction Projects Map and Daily Road Report at saskatoon.ca/construction.

Council to Discuss Downtown Event and Entertainment District Private Partner Agreement Framework
October 22, 2025 - 4:36pm
A report for the October 29 regular business meeting of City Council sets out the proposed agreement framework for a private operating partnership with OVG360 (OVG), one of the world’s leading full-service facility management teams with over 300 client-partners that span arenas, stadiums, convention centres and performing arts centres globally.
“We are pleased to bring forward a proposed agreement framework for the operation of the future facility, which was developed with OVG through a competitive bidding process” says Dan Willems, Director of Technical Services. “We are looking forward to getting Council’s feedback and direction on this important step.”
Willems adds the report is another step toward achieving a funding plan and not an approval for any construction to start.
The procurement process started in January 2024 when City Council approved a procurement approach for a private partner for operations management of one or both of the anchor facilities for the Downtown Event and Entertainment District. An RFP was issued to pre-qualified proponents in February 2024 and closed on April 25, 2024. After the evaluation of proposals, the submission from OVG was deemed the highest scoring and negotiations commenced.
Additional Project Background
August 2024
August 14: Downtown Event and Entertainment District – Private Partner Agreement Framework. Forwarded to City Council August 28 meeting as an approval report or at such time OVG was able to be in attendance.
September 2024
September 25: Downtown Event and Entertainment District – Private Partner Agreement Framework Update provided a brief update on the status of OVG’s efforts to advance internal OVG reviews of the Agreement Framework. The Administration was to provide an update report to City Council with any proposed Agreement Framework modifications at such time that OVG was available to attend.
April 2025
April 9: Downtown Event and Entertainment District – Private Partner Agreement Framework Update outlined the Administration’s intention to pause on bringing forward the private partner Agreement Framework to City Council for review and approval for up to six months. This pause was intended to allow time to monitor and reassess the economic and political environment in relation to the Agreement Framework.
At this point, City Council is being asked to consider the private partner Agreement Framework and set in motion negotiations for a Master Agreement based on the terms set out in the report.
Representatives from OVG360 will be present at the meeting and will make a presentation.
Please visit Frequently Asked Questions for additional context.

As progress continues on the Link project, the public is invited to see what rapid transit will look like along 1st Avenue
October 21, 2025 - 10:15am
Everyone in Saskatoon is invited to come to one of two come-and-go information events to be held on October 23rd and October 27th, where the future configuration of the Link rapid transit project along 1st Avenue will be displayed and City staff and the design Consultant will be available to answer questions. The come-and-go events will be held at the Hilton Garden Inn Downtown and have been scheduled to give people the opportunity to come view the concept design. This marks another major milestone in the project as construction moves forward toward a goal of a 2028 service launch.
“The 1st Avenue section of the Link route is important as it is the only corridor where all three rapid transit lines will converge, and it will move a large number of people from, to and through Downtown,” says Terry Schmidt, General Manager of Transportation and Construction. “These events will give people the opportunity to see where stations will be located as well as give them an idea of how transit, traffic, pedestrians and cyclists will move along 1st Avenue once Link is operational.”
People are invited to attend one of the two events:
October 23 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Hilton Garden Inn 90 22nd St E
Garden South Centre Room
October 27 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
Hilton Garden Inn 90 22nd St E
Garden South Centre Room
In addition, a stakeholder-specific event will be held for residents and businesses directly along 1st Avenue between 19th Street and 25th Street and 21st Street between 1st Avenue and 3rd Avenue on October 22nd.
More information can be found at saskatoon.ca/link1st.

Electric vehicle charging station fees take effect October 30 at Lakewood and Lawson Civic Centres
October 16, 2025 - 6:30am
The Electric Vehicle Charging Station (EVCS) pilot program is complete, and a fee-for-use model will begin on October 30, 2025. Fees can be paid using the ChargePoint app, RFID card, and directly with credit cards or through digital wallet.
User fees are in effect 24 hours a day, including weekends, evenings, statutory and other holidays. The maximum charging duration is three hours. Onsite signage is in place to provide more information to users.
At its August 27 meeting, City Council resolved electric vehicle charging stations at Lakewood and Lawson Civic Centres would begin charging user fees as soon as possible. This decision supports long-term service and fairness for users and community.
Installed in May 2023, these stations had been offered at no cost to the user as part of a two-year pilot project, allowing the City to study the usage patterns, electricity consumption on site, impact on peak demand in the buildings, repair and maintenance requirements, role of internal stakeholders including facilities management, parking enforcement, leisure centres, customer service, and other details to better understand the implications of adding such infrastructure to other public-facing civic sites. The stations experienced steady use and positive feedback during the pilot project.

Crossing signals changes for cyclists and pedestrians
October 14, 2025 - 10:00am
The City of Saskatoon will be making changes to on-demand crossing signals for cyclists and pedestrians.
On Wednesday, October 15, crews will be removing the bike signal lights at 23rd Street West at Avenue P; the following day, Thursday October 16, at Clarence Avenue and 14th Street East and along 23rd Street West at Avenue H.
Although the bike signals will be removed, the dedicated push-buttons for cyclists will remain. These push-buttons are conveniently placed to make it easy for cyclists to activate a stop light along the main road and allow for a safe crossing. The Pedestrian and Cyclist Actuated Signals (PCAS) at Clarence Avenue and Main Street are an example of how this will work.
This change is intended to reduce conflicts in traffic control for cyclists at these locations where both bicycle signals and stop signs are currently present. According to The Traffic Bylaw and The Traffic Safety Act, bicycles are classified as vehicles and must stop at stop signs, even when a green bicycle signal is displayed.
Work on these intersections is expected to be completed by midday and should have minimal traffic disruption. Refer to this helpful information on pedestrian and cyclist crossings.
