A developer wants to build a 163-unit apartment building on Clarence Avenue South in Saskatoon's Nutana neighbourhood. Right now, nine single-family homes sit on the land. The proposal needs a zoning change to allow a taller building—six storeys...
Why This Matters: Live in Nutana or nearby? This building would change the look and feel of your neighbourhood. More residents means more traffic, but also more housing options in an established area. If you're looking for an apartment close to downtown, this could be for you.

Why This Matters: Thinking about a career change or skills upgrade? Private career colleges offer training for trades and technical jobs.

London is planning to widen Oxford Street West from two lanes to four between Westdel Bourne and Sanatorium Road. The project will also add cycle tracks, sidewalks, and multi-use paths. Construction is planned in two phases: 2026 and 2031.
Why This Matters: Live or commute along Oxford Street West? This project will change your daily route for years. More lanes could mean faster car trips, but construction will cause disruptions. New bike lanes and paths could make cycling and walking safer.

Mississauga, ON
Mississauga is expanding two parks in Cooksville by 8 hectares (20 acres) after buying up nearby properties. Phase 1 gathered input from 530 residents on what features they want. Now the city is designing the parks and will ask for feedback on the...
Why This Matters: Live in Cooksville? These parks are about to get a lot bigger. This is your chance to shape what goes in them—playgrounds, sports fields, trails, or something else. The area has a parkland deficit, so this expansion matters for the neighbourhood.

Saskatoon Land wants to rezone 11 undeveloped lots on 3rd Avenue N in the City Park neighbourhood. Right now, the land is zoned for institutional uses like schools or churches. The proposal would allow townhouses, small apartment buildings, and...
Why This Matters: Live in City Park or nearby? This rezoning sets the rules for what gets built on this empty block. It could mean more neighbours, more housing options, and small businesses within walking distance. Or it could change the character of your street.

Government of Alberta (AB)
Alberta is exploring whether to replace the RCMP with its own provincial police force. A 2021 study found the idea was realistic and cost-effective. The government held stakeholder sessions in 2021-2022 and is now gathering broader public input...
Why This Matters: This could change who polices your community. Rural Albertans have raised concerns about RCMP response times. A provincial force might mean more officers in smaller towns—or it could mean a major transition affecting how 911 calls get answered.

Government of Alberta (AB)
Alberta wants to know if its 2022 law requiring timely payments to construction contractors is working. The Prompt Payment and Construction Lien Act sets deadlines for when contractors and subcontractors must be paid. Now the government is asking...
Why This Matters: Work in construction or know someone who does? Late payments can sink small contractors. This law was supposed to fix that. If you've dealt with payment delays on a job site, the government wants to hear whether things have actually improved.

A developer wants to build a 6-storey apartment building at 702 and 706 Victoria Avenue in Saskatoon's Nutana neighbourhood. Right now, the zoning only allows buildings up to 4 storeys. The city is asking neighbours what they think before deciding...

Why This Matters: Live near Central Avenue? This could change what gets built in your neighbourhood. Instead of a school or community centre, you might see a mid-rise apartment building. More housing could mean more neighbours—and more traffic.

Construction noise and traffic changes are coming. The upside: better cycling infrastructure and a wider, safer road when it's done.
