News Releases

Registration for the City’s Fall recreation programs begins Sunday, August 18, 2024, at 6:00 p.m. by logging into to your account on Leisure Online at leisureonline.saskatoon.ca, or by calling 306-975-2800.

Registration for private and semi-private swim lessons and multi-level lessons for families will open on Monday, August 19.  Registrations are accepted by phone only. Call the Leisure Centre that you are interested in taking lessons at to register.

Opening night for registration is very busy, and the City sincerely thanks residents for their patience. While additional online and telephone resources are in place to make the process run as smoothly as possible, there will be many people registering at once.

We recommend having a list of alternative options ready in case you do not get into your first choice. Join the wait list - every full program has an online wait list and new classes may be created if there is enough demand. Lastly, consider other nearby Leisure Centres if your preferred location isn't available.

When registering with Leisure Online, please note the following:

• Do not use Internet Explorer to complete transactions. Compatible web browsers include Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari. Ensure your web browser is up to date. Online transactions are not supported using a device or operating system older than Windows 10, Mac OS 10.14, Android 9, iPhone 8.

• Leisure program registrations processed through Leisure Online are charged an additional $1.00 (+GST) convenience fee on each program registration. This fee was introduced March 1, 2024 after City Council approved the fee during the 2024-25 budget process in November of 2023.
   
• From 5:45 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, August 18, images will also be removed from the registered programs page to improve the load time of the page when a high volume of users are on the site at the same time.

The Fall Leisure Guide, which is Saskatoon’s go-to source for fitness programs, recreational activities and arts and culture opportunities for all ages and abilities, was released on August 2.

The City is pleased to announce construction has commenced on the facility upgrades at Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre. 

Hipperson Construction's bid for the Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre renovation was officially accepted by the City on June 27, 2024.  Following, Hipperson Construction began construction mobilization and officially began the facility upgrade project on August 12, 2024. The planned substantial completion date is March 31, 2026, with the City scheduling a full reopening of the renovated facility for late Spring 2026.

Harry Bailey Aquatic Centre was built in 1975 and many of the components are nearing the end of their functional life.

The project will include the following upgrades to the facility:

• Accessibility and inclusivity improvements to ensure the building and its features will be a welcoming space for the entire community.
• Upgrades to the 50-metre pool basin.
• Change room and washroom renovations to better serve customers and families.
• Water treatment and building mechanical system upgrades for improved efficiency. 
• Flat roof upgrades including vapor barrier and insulation to increase energy efficiency and air quality.

 For future updates and information regarding the project, visit saskatoon.ca/harrybailey.

Spadina Crescent will be closed between Avenues A and E starting on Thursday, August 15, at 7:00 a.m. for YXE Urban Games. Detours will be in place guiding motorists around the work zone. This closure is expected to last four days, weather permitting and barring any unforeseen circumstances. 

Saskatoon Transit may be affected by these detours. Transit service alerts and real-time bus information are available on third-party apps like Transit and Google Maps Transit on desktop.

The City of Saskatoon is pleased to provide an update regarding the recent blue-green algae testing conducted on July 30, 2024 with samples collected from Briarwood Pond. Laboratory results have been received, confirming the presence of blue-green algae in local water samples, however the levels of cyanotoxins detected are significantly lower than safety thresholds.

The test results indicate that the cyanotoxins present in sampling were found to be  thirty times lower than the provincial safety guidelines established by the Healthy Beaches Program. This means that the water quality remains within safe parameters for recreational use and poses no immediate health risks to the public. The City will continue to monitor and re-test based on visual assessment.

In the interest of public safety, all recreational water activities will still be prohibited until further notice and signage around the pond will remain in place.

Residents with pets also are still advised to avoid the pond. When ingested, water with blue-green algae can cause sickness and/or death in animals depending on the level of toxicity.

Health Precautions:

• Symptoms: Contact with or ingestion of blue-green algae toxins can cause symptoms such as skin irritation, nausea, vomiting, and respiratory distress.
• Emergency: If you or your pets experience any symptoms after contact with the water, seek medical or veterinary attention immediately.

Your cooperation in adhering to these safety measures is greatly appreciated.

An important milestone in the journey to the Downtown Event and Entertainment District will be discussed at the August 14^th Governance and Priorities Committee of Saskatoon City Council. The Committee will be discussing a private partner agreement framework for operating the new venues, which is a critical element intended to advance the Downtown Event and Entertainment District.

“We looked for a partner with the necessary experience and credentials that will not only fund and run a successful operation, but also values and understands the importance of social responsibility and leadership in our community,” says Dan Willems, Director of Technical Services, Transportation and Construction. “The fact that we attracted the interest of a world-class expert in facility management reaffirms the potential and excitement that exists for a Downtown Event and Entertainment District in Saskatoon.”

The report sets out an agreement framework for a private operating partnership with OVG360, 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. Between an initial upfront capital contribution and annual revenues to the City through an operating partnership with OVG360, the City projects $170 million in net cash flow over a 25-year agreement.  The agreement will also address important community benefits including maximizing economic opportunities for traditionally marginalized groups, employment that will work with existing employees and unions, and benefits for community non-profit events.

“We are thrilled to announce this long-term operating partnership with OVG360. With OVG360's extensive experience in managing premier facilities across North America, we are confident that their innovative approach will bring substantial financial benefits to our city which will help support the funding strategy for the new venues. Between this partnership and construction of these venues, we anticipate a significant elevation in the quality and variety of events coming to Saskatoon, attracting world-class entertainment, conventions, and cultural activities. This will not only enhance the vibrancy of our community but also drive economic growth and provide memorable experiences for our residents and visitors,” says Willems.

For more information on the Downtown Event and Entertainment District please visit saskatoon.ca/eventdistrict.

The next legislated reassessment of all property types will take place in 2025. The City is now asking all property owners for feedback on:  

• The property tax phase-in options the City could apply: no phase-in, 2-year, or 4-year
  phase-in for the next property reassessment cycle beginning 2025. 
• property owners’ feedback on the benefits, concerns and/or preferences for the phase-in process and how it will be conducted. 
• property owners’ preferred communication methods to receive reassessment information from the City of Saskatoon in 2025 and going forward. 

Property owners, we look forward to hearing your preferences and feedback via this 5-7 minute Survey. For additional background information on this engagement survey please visit saskatoon.ca/engage/property-tax-phase

The City’s Phase-in Options survey will be open for all property owners in Saskatoon from Thursday, August 1 until Friday, August 30, 2024.

Background Information

The next legislated reassessment of all property types in Saskatchewan will take place in 2025. Reassessment is undertaken every four years to determine an updated market value for your property. Your property’s 2025 reassessed value will be used, along with the City’s budgeting requirements and tax policy, to calculate your property tax for the next four years, 2025–2028.

The Cities Act does not allow the City to change the current 4-year reassessment cycle however, the City can determine its own tax policies for all property classes (residential, commercial, multi-residential, etc.) in Saskatoon. The City has the authority to make the decision on what are called phase-in options.

When there is a change to a property owner’s property tax because of their property’s new reassessed value, the dollar amount change in property tax owed can be phased-in over two or four years before the next reassessment year. There is also an option for no phase-in use.

Helpful Information/Resources

• A Guide to Property Assessment & Tax Policy: Roles and Responsibilities
• Comparative Use of Phase-in Over the Last Three Legislated Assessment Cycles
• How Phase-in Options Work if You Have a Property Tax Increase or Decrease
• Phase-in by the Numbers: Examples of No Phase-in, 2-year Phase-in, 4-year Phase-in

During routine monitoring of storm water ponds, the City of Saskatoon has identified a potential blue-green algae bloom at Briarwood Pond in Briarwood. Blue-green algae, also known as Cyanobacteria, is a bacteria that can be harmful to humans and animals.

Out of an abundance of caution, all recreational water activities are strictly prohibited until further notice. Signage is being produced and will be placed around the pond to inform visitors of potential dangers.

Residents with pets also are advised to completely avoid the pond. When ingested, water with blue-green algae can cause sickness and/or death in animals depending on the level of toxicity.

Health Precautions:

• Symptoms: Contact with or ingestion of blue-green algae toxins can cause symptoms such as skin irritation, nausea, vomiting, and respiratory distress.
• Emergency: If you or your pets experience any symptoms after contact with the water, seek medical or veterinary attention immediately.

Water samples will be collected and tested this week. The City will provide updates as they become available. Your cooperation in adhering to these safety measures is greatly appreciated.

Visit Health Canada to learn about the risks of cyanobacteria and their toxins, and how to keep yourself safe.
