Should a Commercial School Operate in Sutherland Industrial?
Official title: 119 105th Street East
A multi-sport training studio for kids and athletes wants to open at 119 105th Street East in Saskatoon's Sutherland Industrial area. The catch? It's zoned for heavy industry, so the city needs to decide if a commercial school fits there. Up to 30 students and 5 staff could use the space at any time.
Why This Matters
Live or work in Sutherland Industrial? This could bring more traffic and parking demand to the area. Parents looking for sports training options for their kids might get a new local option.
What Could Change
City Council could approve the commercial school, potentially with conditions on parking, hours of operation, or capacity. If approved, the studio could operate with up to 30 students at a time. Denial would mean the applicant can't open at this location.
Key Issues
- Is a commercial school compatible with heavy industrial zoning?
- Will parking and traffic be adequate for up to 30 students and 5 staff?
