The City of Saskatoon invites local emerging and established poets to submit poems for the Poetry Downtown project. The theme of the project is Reconciliation.

Poetry Downtown was inspired by a challenge from Parliamentary Poet Laureate of Canada, Louise Halfe, encouraging municipalities to bring poetry to public places. The project is a partnership with Downtown Saskatoon.

 Project goals include:

• to enhance and move forward with Reconciliation
• to provide opportunities for artistic expression in the city centre
• to inspire the public through poetry
• to connect the work of local poets to the community

About the project:

• Ten poems will be selected and displayed on 28” x 48” posters in the directory boxes on 3rd Avenue in Downtown Saskatoon
• Poems may be between 10 and 20 lines
• The poems will be on display from October 1, 2022 to May 31, 2023
• The selected poets will be provided with a $250 fee and will receive their poster at the completion of the project
• The call is open to emerging and established poets who are Saskatoon residents
• Poets may submit a maximum of three poems; a maximum of one poem will be chosen per poet
• Selected poems will be designed into a themed poster design

The deadline for applications is September 6, 2022.

Today, the City of Saskatoon introduces the launch of SmartUTIL a new, easy-to-use online tool to help inform and support the City’s residential and commercial utility customers.

There’s lots to consider when it comes to water and electricity consumption at your property. Running lots of fans or the A/C during hot weather? Sprinklers going full force to keep your turf and garden green? Someone in your household taking extra-long showers? Space heaters on all day during cold snaps? Baking loads of sourdough?

SmartUTIL allows residential and commercial utility customers to:

• view water and electricity usage and trends for your property(s) by the month, day or hour
• keep on budget – you can set spending alerts for water and or electricity usage at your property and be notified if you’re about to exceed the dollar amount you specified
• take steps to conserve and reduce the impact on the environment by reviewing water and electricity data for your property

It’s easy to get started with SmartUTIL!

• Go to saskatoon.ca/smartutil – this takes you to the My Utility Account page, where SmartUTIL lives.
• If you don’t already have one, you’ll need to register for a My Utility Account to access SmartUTIL. Enter your utility statement account number and the amount of your last billing to get you started on your set-up.
• Your My Utility Account will also show your utility payments/credits, account summary, consumption summary and Equalized Payment Plan if you’re on it.
• Need assistance setting up your My Utility Account? Call us at 306-975-2400, we’re pleased to assist you.

SmartUTIL will also be a helpful tool for our Corporate Revenue Customer Service Representatives when they assist with your utility-related inquiries.

The City’s Corporate Revenue and Information Technology Departments are committed to continuous improvement and leveraging technology to serve our residential and commercial utility customers better.

Get started today! Check out helpful utility-related information for your property with SmartUTIL at saskatoon.ca/smartutil

Residents of Saskatoon will soon be able to request public transit service using the Saskatoon Transit OnDemand app from designated stops to the nearest transit hub and vice-versa. The OnDemand Transit (ODT) service will connect the new neighbourhoods of Brighton/Rosewood, North Kensington and Blairmore with fixed route service, to fill service gaps in those areas.

“This is all about service,” says Tracey Davis, Interim Director, Saskatoon Transit.

“We want to provide people with as much flexibility as possible - especially in developing neighbourhoods where full public transit options don’t yet exist. Our OnDemand Transit service is just the thing to meet this challenge head on.”

The new ODT service will begin August 2 and will be fully integrated with the current fixed-route transit system. OnDemand will also be available in Transit, Saskatoon Transit’s all-in-one app to plan, track and pay for rides. Thanks to this integration, riders can, for the first-time plan trips that combine Saskatoon's OnDemand and fixed-route services. Passengers can plan a trip in Transit to their destination using a combination of OnDemand and fixed-route service, then link directly to the Saskatoon OnDemand app to request their ride. Trips can be requested in multiple ways: the Saskatoon Transit OnDemand mobile app, website, or phone (306-975-3100).

To make this all work in a coordinated effort is new AI technology paired with an app that allows trips to be booked in real time, or up to two weeks before riding. Spots can also be reserved for wheelchairs and bikes.

“The software is brilliant,” says Davis. “We’re able to connect buses directly to our customers when they need it, and to route the bus efficiently from rider pickup to drop-off.”

The new service to launch August 2, 2022, will connect Brighton/Rosewood, North Kensington and Blairmore to transit hubs Monday to Friday, from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.

At today’s July 25 City Council meeting, Council resolved to submit a Request for Designation to the Province to designate Saskatoon as an Eligible Assistance Area under the Provincial Disaster Assistance Program (PDAP). This program provides financial assistance for restoring essential services and property as a result of substantial damages caused by excessive rain resulting in flooding as was the case on June 20, 2022, in Saskatoon.

The PDAP covers uninsurable damage to individual properties caused by severe weather events. It is the Administration’s understanding that damage caused by excessive amounts of rain on June 20, 2022 would qualify. Once Saskatoon is designated as approved for financial assistance by the Province - the Province of Saskatchewan will then arrange for the claims to be adjusted and make payments where appropriate.

To recap: The City will issue further information on how Saskatoon residents can apply for PDAP assistance once Saskatoon is approved as an Eligible Assistance Area. The required application forms will then be made available online through the Province and will also be available at City Hall.

Fire Chief Morgan Hackl and other fire officials will welcome the newest group of firefighter-paramedics to the Saskatoon Fire Department (SFD) at a private graduation ceremony this afternoon. The ceremony will recognize the successful completion of comprehensive training programs where 15 recruits will be presented with their badges and battalion assignments.

All 15 firefighter-paramedics have completed basic training in firefighting, technical rescue, hazardous material mitigation and fire inspections. They are also certified to the level of Primary Care Paramedic (PCP) and are licensed through the Saskatchewan College of Paramedics. Their training and experience have prepared them for operating effectively on high-hazard emergency scenes.    

"We hold a high standard of training at SFD. Our team of Fire Service Instructors has worked with these recruits over the past four weeks to review their firefighter and paramedic skills, and educate them on how they will apply these in their new role at the SFD,” says Anthony Tataryn, Assistant Chief of Staff Development and Safety. “Our fire department strives to be a leader in training as we recognize the vital importance that it plays in the safety of both our staff and residents.”

EMS incidents make up over 40 percent of SFD's response, making the recruits’ PCP certification a valuable asset to the fire service.

"When we seek new recruits, we look for individuals who will contribute to the overall success of our team," says Chief Hackl. "With the growing number of EMS calls in our city, it's important for our crews to be equipped with paramedic training. Having the added PCP certification means our firefighters can effectively respond to EMS incidents that occur in high-hazard situations.”

These firefighter-paramedics demonstrate the Saskatoon Fire Department’s commitment towards enhanced front-line emergency care and the investment that City Council continues to make in emergency services.

Chief Hackl adds, “We commend the hard work each recruit has put forward to reach this milestone and we’re thrilled to welcome these 15 individuals to the Saskatoon Fire Department.”

The new firefighter-paramedics will start their first shifts beginning Monday, July 25.

Preventative maintenance on the Attridge Drive overpass will wrap up tonight, July 22, removing all restrictions and fully re-opening to traffic.

Work underneath the overpass continues with the Circle Drive northbound exit ramp to Attridge Drive westbound being closed on Sunday, July 24 at 12:00 a.m. for roadway work. Detours will be in place guiding motorists around this work. This project is expected to take one day to complete, barring unforeseen circumstances or weather delays.         

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 is pleased to have been selected as one of the recipients of the CN EcoConnexions – From the Ground Up program grant. Sponsored by CN in partnership with Tree Canada, the program invests more than a half a million dollars in community greening projects across Canada.

With the $25,000 CN EcoConnexions – From the Ground Up grant, the City planted 44 new trees in Parc Canada, a 16 Hectare (40 Acre) green space located in the Confederation Park neighbourhood which has added to an overall improvement of the much-used area.

About Tree Canada:
Tree Canada is the only national non-profit organization dedicated to planting and nurturing trees in rural and urban environments. Through our programs, research and engagement efforts, we have helped restore tree cover in areas hit by natural disasters, guided communities in managing their urban forests, supported over 700 schoolyard greening projects and organized urban forest conferences. To date, with our community partners and sponsors, we have planted more than 83 million trees. For more information visit treecanada.ca.

About CN:
CN is a world-class transportation leader and trade-enabler. Essential to the economy, to the customers, and to the communities it serves, CN safely transports more than 300 million tons of natural resources, manufactured products, and finished goods throughout North America every year. As the only railroad connecting Canada’s Eastern and Western coasts with the U.S. South through a 19,500-mile rail network, CN, and its affiliates have been contributing to community prosperity and sustainable trade since 1919. CN is committed to programs supporting social responsibility and environmental stewardship.

This weekend, the City will perform an upgrade to a major IT system starting at 7:00 a.m. Friday, July 22 until midnight, Sunday, July 24. As a result, some online services and or applications on the City’s website saskatoon.ca may not be available over the upgrade timeframe.

What residents can expect during the IT upgrade timeframe:

A blue alert banner will appear on the homepage of the City’s website and affected web pages will show a yellow alert box indicating possible online service disruption.

Several online services will function as read-only or have interrupted service:

• Utility customers will still be able to view their bill and data but will be unable to connect to their login or set up a new account; meter reads and switching to digital eBill will be unavailable
• Home-based and Commercial business licenses, Subdivision applications and the building and plumbing permit archival search will be unavailable
• Electronic Property Tax Search Certificate (EPTSC) will be unavailable
• User Profile on saskatoon.ca will be unavailable for set-up

The City apologizes for these online service disruptions as we upgrade our technology to serve you better.

Thank you, residents, for your patience while this necessary IT upgrade is carried out.

Visit saskatoon.ca for information on civic services and programs.

Every year, the City of Saskatoon produces its Service, Savings and Sustainability (SSS) Report. The report focuses on the preceding calendar year and highlights the ways City employees worked to capture savings, enhance services for residents, and make improvements in the area of sustainability.

“The theme of the 2021 report is 2021: Resilience & Readiness,” says Celene Anger, the City’s Chief Strategy and Transformation Officer. “We wanted to tell the story of how we worked together to continue delivering and improving programs and services in the second year of a global pandemic, all while working to keep residents and staff safe.”

Initiatives featured in the 2021 report include:

• Doubling minor sidewalk repairs
• City Hall Lobby reconfigured to prioritize customer experience
• Improvements to Saskatoon.ca to make it more mobile friendly
• Reintroduction of prescribed fires to help ecological health
• LED street light upgrade completed
• Solid Waste Reduction & Diversion Plan unveiled
• Facility improvements to increase energy efficiency
• Use of recycled asphalt
• ePermitting improvements for building and development permits

The 2021 Service, Savings and Sustainability (SSS) Report reflects the City’s year-over-year commitment to find savings, explore and take on new challenges, and find practical, forward-thinking solutions to meet the changing needs of the community.

“At the City of Saskatoon, we have a strong commitment to continuous improvement and are always looking for new ways to improve performance and deliver value for taxpayer dollars,” says Anger.

The 2021 SSS Report will be presented as an information item at the Governance and Priorities Committee meeting on Monday, July 18. The report is available now at saskatoon.ca/SSSreport.
