Ready, Set, Swap! Citywide Fall Curbside Swap happening Saturday, September 10
September 8, 2022 - 6:00am
The Curbside Swap is bigger and better in 2022 offering two opportunities for Saskatoon’s residents to participate in a citywide treasure hunt and help reduce the number of reusable items that end up in the landfill.
The spring event was held on June 4, 2022 and featured 350 listings, with residents swapping everything from desks and chairs to teddy bears! A second fall event will take place this Saturday, September 10 (8:00 a.m.– 6:00 p.m.).
Join the effort in helping to reduce the number of unwanted reusable items that end up in the landfill.
To participate in the Curbside Swap, place your gently used items on your property and mark them as “free” for anyone to take. Residents may also go out in search of items that other residents are giving away.
Visit saskatoon.ca/curbsideswap to sign up and promote your swap using the online listing tool as well as event tools, information on guidelines, and a list of acceptable and non-acceptable items. Common "swappable" items include furniture, electronics, sporting equipment, books, tools, and much more!
For items that are not collected by 6pm, residents are encouraged to visit saskatoon.ca/wastewizard for other disposal methods or get the Saskatoon Waste Wizard app to find ways to divert their items from the landfill.

Pruning ban for elm trees ends today
September 1, 2022 - 9:00am
The province-wide pruning ban for elm trees ends today, Thursday, September 1. The pruning ban is in place each year from April 1 to August 31 to ensure that elm bark beetles, which transmit Dutch elm disease (DED), are not attracted to freshly pruned trees when the beetles are most active.
Provincial regulations also prohibit the storing, transport and use of elm wood for any purpose. This includes wood chips, firewood, wood slabs and branches. The only permitted movement of elm wood is to the City’s designated disposal site at the City Landfill.
Elm trees make up about 25% of Saskatoon's urban forest. Last year, the City confirmed its third case of DED since 2015 in an elm tree located in Leif Erickson Park in the Westmount neighbourhood. As part of the City's DED Response Plan, the infected tree was immediately removed and disposed of at the City Landfill. The City will continue surveillance and testing of public and private elm trees in the surrounding area with an intensive search for elm material and other sources of infection.
The most effective management strategy for DED is to not transport or store elm wood. Infected firewood is the most likely way that DED would be brought into Saskatoon. In addition, keeping elm trees healthy by regularly watering and properly removing and disposing of dead and dying branches will deprive the elm bark beetle of its habitat.
How to identify and report unhealthy elm trees
American elm trees with DED may start showing symptoms as early as June. Typically, the leaves will start to wilt and turn yellow out of season from June to mid-August, then curl and turn brown. Anyone suspecting that an elm tree is unhealthy is encouraged to complete the online form at saskatoon.ca/dutchelmdisease or call Urban Forestry at 306-975-2890.
By following the provincial regulations and maintaining elm trees on your private property, all residents can help prevent the spread of DED in Saskatoon.
For more information on DED, visit saskatoon.ca/dutchelmdisease.
Celebrating Labour Day with fireworks
September 1, 2022 - 8:00am
- Carefully read and follow the manufacturer instructions.
- Exercise increased caution when handling and discharging any type of firework.
- Choose your location wisely. Fireworks can only be discharged on private property.
- Familiarize yourself with the space requirements for the type of firework being discharged. Requirements vary depending on the firework type.
- Ensure your location is free of overhead obstructions, is clear side-to-side and is a safe distance from combustible materials.
- Ensure that it is not windy and that all spectators are safely located to observe the display.
- Be sure to properly stabilize the firework according to manufacturer direction.
- Other than sparklers, never light or hold a lit firework in your hand.

City Council at its August 29, 2022, meeting approved the Standing Policy Committee on Environment, Utilities and Corporate Services recommendation to match SaskPower’s approved electrical rate increases. The new rates will be effective starting today, September 1, 2022; as approved, a second rate will take effect on April 1, 2023. The Federal Carbon Charge is anticipated to increase on January 1, 2023.
The City of Saskatoon, and thereby Saskatoon Light & Power (SL&P) as a reseller of electricity matches its power rates to those established by SaskPower. This is to ensure equality between utility customers regardless of where they live in Saskatoon - within SL&P’s service provider area or SaskPower's.
The most recent general increase in electricity rates occurred on March 1, 2018, when a system-wide average increase of 3.5% came into effect. Since then, the Federal Carbon Charge has been implemented with annual adjustments. The Government of Saskatchewan also provided the Saskatchewan Economic Recovery Rebate in the amount of a 10% reduction in rates from December 1, 2020, to November 30, 2021.
SaskPower indicated in their current rate application that the main drivers of the requested rate increase were due to increases in the cost of fuel, purchased power expenses and modest increases in operating, maintenance, and administration expenses.
Starting September 1, 2022, an average residential customer using 625 kWh of electricity each month will incur an additional $7.00/month (3.4% electrical rate increase). Effective April 1, 2023, an additional $5.50/month (4.1% electrical rate increase). For commercial customers, there are several different rate categories depending on how much electricity they consume.
Please visit saskatoon.ca/utilityrates for full details on the electrical rates effective September 1, 2022.
For the City’s utility customers who have created an online My Utility Account, you'll be able to access SmartUtil our newest web tool to help you monitor your electrical consumption, view trends and also set handy budget notifications if you wish.
If you're uncertain of your electrical service provider, review your monthly utility bill or call Saskatoon Light & Power at 306-975-2414 during regular business hours.

City of Saskatoon releases 2021 Annual Report
August 31, 2022 - 10:45am
- consolidated operating revenues of $1.08 billion and operating expenses of $892.3 million resulting in a net surplus of $186.7 million
- a strengthened accumulated surplus from $4.6 billion to $4.8 billion, an increase of 4.0% over 2020’s figures
- a 2.95% increase in overall Reserves from $208.7 million to $270.4 million
- a year-end deficit for tax-based operations before the transfer from the fiscal stabilization Reserve of $1.1 million, the same operating deficit that was reported to City Council at its meeting on April 25, 2022
The City of Saskatoon has released its 2021 Annual Report to the public having received the opinion of the external auditor. Per The Cities Act, the 2021 Audited Financial Statements and Reports were presented to City Council for information on Monday, August 29, 2022. The Annual Report containing the consolidated financial statements is the legally required public report of the City's finances.
“The 2021 Annual Report highlights the City’s progress on major projects and initiatives by business line, our achievements and ongoing priorities as set out in the Multi-Year Business Plan and Budget, and the City's financial position at the end of 2021,” says Clae Hack, Chief Financial Officer.
“Against the ongoing challenges and the uncertainty of COVID-19 in 2021, we continued to find creative ways to be resilient and responsive in the delivery of our key civic services to the community,” says Hack. “We remain committed to ensuring residents receive value from the services and programs provided by local government, and from the investments made through their tax dollars.”
Financial highlights from 2021 show the City had:
Award-Winning Financial Reporting
For the 14th consecutive year, the City of Saskatoon received the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) Canadian Award for Financial Reporting (2020). The 2021 Annual Report will be submitted to the GFOA for consideration for this year's award.
The City also had its S & P Global ‘AAA/ Stable’ credit rating reconfirmed for 2021 (and again in January for 2022 ), supported by the City’s cautious financial decision-making and willingness to explore innovative and alternative ways to fund, finance, deliver and make progress on important infrastructure projects.
Intending to be one of the best-managed cities in Canada, the 2021 Annual Report reflects the City’s ongoing dedication to continuous improvement, accountability to the public we serve, transparency and clarity in financial reporting.

Committee ponders cart size options for curbside residential garbage collection
August 31, 2022 - 5:44am
- Option 1 (Recommended by Administration):
- Three different garbage cart sizes would be available to residents upon request.
- Residents would have a choice of cart sizes ranging from a 180 litre, 240 litre and the current 360 litre for year-round bi-weekly pick-up service.
- This illustration compares the volume of the three black cart sizes.
- Option 2:
- Two different garbage cart sizes would be available to residents upon request -- the current large 360 litre and new medium 240 litre black cart for year-round bi-weekly pick-up service.
A pair of size options to collect residential garbage at single family households will be presented to the Standing Policy Committee on Environment, Utilities & Corporate Services (EUCS) at its meeting Tuesday, September 6. The options are part of a report preparing the City’s move to a variable garbage cart utility in January 2024.
A variable black cart utility is a rate-based program where residents pay fees for the volume of waste they dispose and the services they receive based on the size of their garbage cart.
“While people are free to choose whatever they want, the volume-based rate structure is designed to encourage residents to divert as much waste as possible away from the landfill,” says Brendan Lemke, Director of Water and Waste Operations. “Residents with the largest garbage carts pay more and those with the smallest pay less.”
The decision to fund both the garbage and organics services through payments on utility bills was approved October 18, 2021 by the Governance and Priorities Committee of City Council, at which time the Committee asked the Administration to evaluate the funding model and present options on timing, phase-in and affordability.
The two options up for discussion are:
“Moving to a volume-based cart program will give residents choice based on their waste needs and it’s one of many components under the City’s Waste Reduction and Diversion Strategy to meet our waste diversion goals,” Lemke says. “We recommend Option 1 to City Council because it increases the customer’s control over their costs and provides financial incentives for waste diversion at a lower overall investment.”
The full report and attachments (appendix 1; appendix 2) can be found here.

Winterization of park irrigation systems begins September 1
August 31, 2022 - 10:45am
On September 1, City crews begin the annual winterization of the 480 irrigation systems in Saskatoon parks and along roadway streetscapes. Winterization is an important maintenance procedure to help ensure the longevity of the City’s irrigation infrastructure.
Irrigation winterization involves the use of large compressors that force air through the irrigation system, removing any residual water so it will not freeze within the underground pipes. The force of compressed air exiting through sprinkler heads may pick up and propel debris within the work zone.
To ensure public safety, residents are asked to follow all signage at work sites, and to stay clear of all sprinkler heads, compressor units and related winterization equipment in the parks during maintenance.
The winterization process is expected to take seven weeks. For more information, visit saskatoon.ca/parkmaintenance.
Year-round reduced speeds now in effect for School Zones and new Playground Zones
August 31, 2022 - 10:00am
Saskatoon families may feel a stronger sense of safety in areas where their young children learn and play as changes to School Zones and new Playground Zones start tomorrow, September 1.
Speed limits in School Zones at elementary schools will be 30 km/h every day, all year from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Additionally, some school zone boundaries were adjusted and the reduced speed limit was removed from High School Zones. U-turns are still restricted at all schools between posted School Zone signs.
“Slowing from 50 km/h to 30 km/h where children play gives the driver more time to react, a wider field of vision and a chance to come to a complete stop sooner,” says Jay Magus, Director of Transportation. “Children are more vulnerable to severe injury in a crash than adults, so should a crash occur, it is less likely that it would have severe consequences at a reduced speed.”
Playground Zones are new in Saskatoon and require drivers to slow to 30 km/h as posted, when passing areas where children play. Where School and Playground Zone signs do not include a posted speed limit, treat the sign as a caution and pay close attention through the area.
Speed enforcement activities will be aligned with the new School Zone and Playground Zone effective hours.
“It’s critical for people to slow down in these areas where young children play and learn,” said Dale Solie, Inspector, Saskatoon Police Service. “Initially our focus will be to educate and raise awareness of the school zone and playground changes; however, enforcement will occur where necessary.”
Vehicle speed and pedestrian safety have been the top concerns of residents who participated in 77 Neighbourhood Traffic Reviews between 2013 and 2021, and many people felt that vulnerable people, such as children, were at risk of injury.
Following a city-wide speed limit review for residential streets in 2021, City Council approved changes to extend School Zones to year-round with longer hours and implement playground zones. Learn more at saskatoon.ca/speedlimit.
