Several stakeholders weighed-in on the revenue options presented for Saskatoon's potential Downtown Event and Entertainment District.
A Saskatoon city committee will consider an accommodation tax to help fund the proposed downtown arena and event centre, but that's not the preferred funding stream for hotels.
An email released from the City of Saskatoon claimed they "successfully navigated an extraordinary emergency snow event in December 2022 with an equally extraordinary response."
Several cuts were made in Saskatoon's final special budget meeting as the city worked to reduce the shortfall.
The costs of emergency snow removal over the winter came in around $18 million; about $13 million was dealt with using an internal loan.
