The Yorkton Economic Development Committee is meeting on February 26, 2026, to discuss new plans for business support and local investment in Yorkton, Saskatchewan. The session will take place from 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. in Meeting Room A at City Hall.
This is one of the first meetings for the group since the City of Yorkton council approved the 2026 budget on January 26, 2026. The new budget includes a 3.85 per cent property tax increase designed to pay for core services and over $6 million in local construction projects.
Committee members will review how these funds will be used for improvements like road paving and sewer system assessments. A major priority for industrial growth this year is the improvement of Grain Millers Drive, which is being funded with help from the provincial government.
Local business owners and residents can follow these meetings to learn how the city handles building permits and new jobs. The meeting comes shortly after the city celebrated local leaders during the Civic Recognition Award event on February 24, 2026.
