As warmer weather approaches, it’s important to remember that we share our urban spaces with many species of wildlife such as coyotes, foxes, geese, jackrabbits and raccoons. Encountering urban wildlife in Saskatoon is normal and these animals play a vital role in our ecosystem. Understanding how to coexist with them can ensure safety for both the wildlife and our community.

Here are some important tips for co-existing with urban wildlife:

• Do not feed wildlife: You are not helping them. Feeding wild animals can make them lose their natural fear of humans, leading to increased encounters and potential conflicts.
• Secure food sources: Keep garbage, compost, birdseed and pet food out of reach and tightly sealed.
• Keep pets safe: Always supervise pets when they are outside, especially at night. While out on a walk, have pets under your control and on a leash in 
  areas known to have wildlife.
• Respect wildlife: They are not pets. Keep wildlife wild by not approaching or attempting to touch them.
• Use hazing techniques: If you encounter a wild animal, make loud noises, wave your arms and throw small objects towards (but not at) it to scare it away. Do not run or turn your back.
• Report unusual behaviour: If the animal is acting unusual (e.g., approaching people, staggering or acting confused), call Customer Care at 
  306-975-2476. If the animal is acting aggressive, contact the Saskatoon Police Service non-emergency line at 306-975-8300. If you are in immediate danger, call 911.

By following these guidelines, we can co-exist safely and prevent unwanted encounters with the wildlife that share our urban spaces. 

The City continues to work on plans to mitigate aggressive wildlife behaviour, with City Council approving next steps on this matter at its March 26 meeting.

For more information on urban wildlife, visit saskatoon.ca/wildlife.

As the weather continues to warm up, the Saskatoon Fire Department would like to advise the public to be mindful of ice conditions.

Ice thickness is no longer suitable for winter recreational use. The ice must reach a minimum thickness of at least eight inches to be considered safe. Fire crews will be updating the posted signage this week to read “No Skating” at each recreational storm pond.

Community members who use the ponds for recreational purposes assume all risk and maintenance responsibilities for the ice including removing personal belongings, as well as user safety.

Additionally, ice on the South Saskatchewan River has also started to melt. The ice that covers this body of water is unpredictable and is therefore never safe for winter recreational use. Residents are asked to never venture out onto the ice that covers sections of the South Saskatchewan River.

Community members are advised to always exercise an elevated level of caution when around any large body of water. Keep a close watch on children and pets when visiting trails, parks, or off-leash areas that may run adjacent to the South Saskatchewan River or a storm water retention pond.

For more information regarding the Recreational Uses of Storm Water Retention Ponds policy, visit saskatoon.ca/ponds.

The City’s Compost Depot is set to open in time for spring clean-up. Residents are invited to drop off excess yard waste, including leaves, grass, sod, topsoil, garden refuse, non-elm branches, stumps and tree trimmings, at no cost. This helps keep yard waste out of the Landfill and produces high-quality, nutrient-rich compost and mulch used in Saskatoon’s parks and community gardens.

In addition to dropping off yard waste, residents are welcome to take part in the Dig-Your-Own program at the Compost Depot, located at Highway 7 and 11th Street. Residents can self-load up to 1 cubic yard of compost and mulch at no cost, while supplies last. Accessibility will be dictated by site conditions. The Compost Depot is open 7 days a week, including statutory holidays from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. with the final vehicles being admitted at 5:50 p.m.

All loads must be covered when transported within City limits to prevent debris from blowing off vehicles (Waste Bylaw #9844).

The City Compost Depot does NOT accept elm wood, sawdust, treated and untreated lumber, building materials, garbage, or any animal waste/litter. Food waste is also NOT accepted for drop-off at the compost depots; selected food waste may be composted at home and all food waste can be placed in Green Carts. Excess yard waste is welcomed at the Compost Depot.

For more information, please visit saskatoon.ca/compostdepot.

The City of Saskatoon is proposing a revised property tax ratio following recent amendments to primarily warehouse property assessments that would have a material impact on the distribution of the 2025 municipal property tax levy if left unadjusted.

The amended assessments, finalized on March 27, 2025, reflect necessary time adjustments to warehouse property assessment data to align with the base valuation date of January 1, 2023. The result is an increase of approximately $653 million in assessed value within the commercial property class.

"These updated assessments ensure our property values reflect current market conditions and maintain fairness across all property types," says Clae Hack, Chief Financial Officer. "However, the scale of the change means we must also adjust our property tax ratio to reflect the original intent of City Council’s direction."

As a result, City Administration is proposing to revise the commercial-to-residential tax ratio from the previously approved 1.88 to 1 to 1.71 to 1, at the April 9, 2025, Governance and Priorities Committee meeting. This updated ratio maintains the intended balance of 32% of tax revenue from non-residential properties and 68% from residential properties, consistent with City Council’s previously stated objectives.

"This recommendation ensures that we remain aligned with Council’s direction and avoid placing an undue tax burden on one part of the tax base due to the amended assessment values," Hack adds.

The City of Saskatoon has declared a Snow Event following heavy snowfall Thursday and Friday morning, with 12 cm of snow accumulation. Strong winds have also created challenging road conditions with drifting and icy surfaces.

28 graders and 6 plows are working to clear snow from priority streets like freeways, arterial roads and collector streets. Snow will be stored on medians, boulevards and parking lanes to maintain mobility. 14 sanders are working to improve traction in icy areas, and 6 sidewalk plows are active clearing City-owned pathways and sidewalks.

Drivers should be aware to adjust driving habits by slowing down and increasing following distances between vehicles. Give road equipment the space it needs to operate, and watch for blue and yellow flashing lights.

The status of snow clearing throughout the city can be monitored through the Priority Street Snow Grading Map. More information, including the City’s level of service, can be found at saskatoon.ca/snow. Stay in the know by checking the latest Snow & Ice Report posted to saskatoon.ca/snowreport.

The City’s second annual Round Dance and Feast is taking place this Friday, March 28 at the Cosmo Civic Centre.

A Round Dance is a traditional event in First Nations culture that celebrates community unity through the coming together of the community and its people. The theme for this event is miyo-pimatisiwin (MEE-oh pim-MOT-tis-oo-win), which means “the good life for all” in the Plains Cree language.

“We had such an incredible response from our staff and community last year when we held our very first Round Dance and Feast, and we are experiencing that same level of enthusiasm for this year’s event,” says Melissa Cote, Director of Indigenous Initiatives.

Community members and City of Saskatoon employees have volunteered their time to ensure everything from set up to take down runs smoothly.

The City has also benefitted from having a few external partners help with the cost of hosting the Round Dance and Feast. “We’re grateful for the generous financial support from The Canadian Race Relations Foundation, Nutrien and the Saskatoon Public Library. We thank these organizations for contributing and helping us create an event that brings our community together,” says Cote.

Everyone is welcome to attend this family-friendly, alcohol-free event. The community feast takes place from 4:00-6:00 p.m. and the round dance begins at 6:00 p.m.

Media please note: Videography or photography of the feast is not permitted out of respect for ceremonial practices. Videography and photography of the round dance is permitted except when smudging and praying is happening during the giveaway ceremony and during the first dance. We request that any interviews with City of Saskatoon spokespeople take place on Friday morning, as we will not be able to accommodate interviews at the event.

Saskatoon Transit continues to concentrate on improving safety for employees and customers on the buses and at terminals. It has addressed all the initiatives in the Saskatoon Transit Frontline Employee Safety Plan, announced in June 2024, and will present a progress report on Tuesday, April 1, at City Council’s Standing Policy Committee on Transportation meeting.

In response to challenges with violence and aggression on buses and at terminals at the beginning of 2024, Saskatoon Transit management and Amalgamated Transit Union Local 615 committed to prioritizing 17 initiatives to improve workplace safety and foster a culture of safety within Saskatoon Transit.

The plan involves security measures, new processes for reporting incidents and protocols to maintain order on the bus, reduce negative interactions and prepare employees with the skills and resources they need to de-escalate situations. Transit will continue to focus on these initiatives, as many are new, and it can take time for noticeable differences.

Repeated customer surveys throughout 2024 in the Transit app support a correlation between the perception of safety and the number of negative interactions occurring. Saskatoon Transit will use employee feedback about what’s working or not to improve the programs and processes in the plan and continue to support the City’s Community Safety and Well-Being initiatives.

Renovations made to the former Saskatchewan Transportation Company parcel depot for use as a temporary enhanced emergency shelter are complete. The City has turned the renovated building over and The Mustard Seed is preparing for shelter operations, with an anticipated opening in April.

In September 2024, City Council approved an 18-month permit for temporary operation of a 30 to 40 bed enhanced emergency residential shelter at 210 Pacific Avenue. Council also approved a request to lease the City-owned building to the Government of Saskatchewan at a below market rate. 

After hearing feedback from nearby residents and businesses, the City committed to implement changes to the site plan of the temporary shelter as detailed here. Measures include:

• Fencing to create a sense of space for those using the shelter, and delineation between the shelter and surrounding businesses. There will be no walk-in access off Pacific Avenue. Facility access for shelter guests will only be from Ontario Avenue.
• Fencing will feature artwork, created by local Indigenous artists and youth, to connect the shelter to the community and add vibrancy to the neighbourhood. This will include a series of original hand painted banners depicting Indigenous stories by local artists, Josh Wāpiskisiw and Honey Constant-Inglis, and a group of young multi-cultural artists from W.P. Bate School. Indigenous storytelling during the winter season is a cherished Indigenous tradition for passing on knowledge from generation to generation, sharing culture, history, teachings, spirituality and language. Interpretive plaques will be placed onsite to explain the stories.
• 7-day-per-week, extended-hour security/support dedicated to the downtown with a proactive priority focus on the vicinity around the proposed shelter.

Representatives from the City, Saskatoon Fire Department, Saskatoon Police Service, Government of Saskatchewan and The Mustard Seed are also meeting with neighbours in the immediate vicinity ahead of the opening to discuss the operating and safety plan. More information on the integrated operating and safety plan can be read here.

City Administration, in collaboration with the Government of Saskatchewan, is in the final stages of identifying a permanent site for the enhanced emergency shelter. An update will be provided when available. 

Direct service from the Special Events Stop (23rd Street and 2nd Avenue) to see the Beach Boys at SaskTel Centre on Thursday, March 27 at 7:30 p.m., is available at the following times:

The City of Saskatoon received a formal offer from SK Recycles (formerly Multi-Material Stewardship Western) to transition to its new Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) household recycling program. This follows the May 2024 approval of Household Packaging and Paper Stewardship Program Regulations by the Saskatchewan Ministry of Environment. As a result, the provincial stewardship agency, SK Recycles, will take over municipal recycling programs. A report to the April 1, 2025 meeting of the Standing Policy Committee on Environment, Utilities and Corporate Services provides a detailed analysis of the options available to the City. 

Due to a number of considerations, such as existing contractual requirements for blue carts and compost depots, City Administration recommends maintaining the status quo with no changes to both the curbside and multi-unit residential recycling programs until December 2027.

Looking to the future, Administration recommends signaling its intent to participate in the SK Recycles-led collection models for both programs, starting in January 2028, by making a formal written submission to SK Recycles. This option would allow time to transition the funding model for waste services that had previously been supported by SK Recycles funding; it is also expected to cause no disruption to the service level and would be the lowest cost. Residents will learn more about the service-provider change in the months leading up to the 2028 SK Recycles implementation.

By 2028, all Saskatchewan communities will transition to a full Extended Producer Responsibility program for household packaging and paper, joining the SK Recycles program.
