The 2020 municipal/school boards’ elections will be held in fall 2020 and early planning is already underway. This includes reviewing the ten wards in Saskatoon to ensure each has equal population representation in each according to The Cities Act.

New boundaries are now required for four ward boundaries (Wards 5, 7, 8 and 10) and the proposed changes could also affect the boundaries of other wards. The Community Association you belong to, or the City Councillor you've had to-date could change - we know this is important to residents.
