Traffic Barrier (No thru traffic)

1st Avenue North

Baycroft Drive

Ewles Place

The City of Martensville is advising residents of a traffic change at the intersection of First Avenue North and Baycroft Drive as work continues on the Centennial Drive North Upgrades Project. On Thursday, August 20, a jersey barrier was installed on First Avenue North, immediately south of Baycroft Drive, as part of ongoing traffic management related to project road closures and detours. With access along Centennial Drive North currently restricted due to construction, surrounding streets have experienced increased traffic volumes, including an increase in heavy vehicle traffic. The barrier is being installed to help manage traffic and improve safety for residents, pedestrians and motorists in the area. Once the barrier is in place, through traffic travelling north on First Avenue North will not be able to continue onto Baycroft Drive at this location. Motorists travelling on Baycroft Drive will also be unable to exit southbound onto First Avenue North. Sidewalks in the area will remain open to pedestrian traffic and the barrier will remain in place until the Centennial Drive North Upgrades Project is complete. Motorists are asked to use alternate routes and follow all posted traffic control measures while travelling through the area. The City thanked residents and motorists for their patience and cooperation while construction is underway. Additional information and updates are available through the City of Martensville’ social media, or online at www. martensville.ca.

Development Proposals and City Projects Highlight August 25 Council Meeting Shanine Sealey, Martensville Messenger

Martensville City Council held its only regular meeting of August on Tuesday, August 25, with a public hearing, committee appointments, a proposed Lake Vista residential development and several municipal project updates among the items discussed. The meeting began with a public hearing regarding a discretionary use application from FHD Mechanical Inc. for its property at 925 8th Street South. FHD Mechanical currently operates a diesel and automotive service business at the location and sought approval to expand its operations to include repairs and servicing of small heavy-duty vehicles and equipment, including boom lifts and skid steers. Under the City's zoning bylaw, the additional work is classified as a machine shop and requires discretionary use approval. According to the council report, heavy-duty equipment work is expected to account for approximately two to five per cent of the company's billable work. Repairs would take place entirely indoors, while fabrication and welding would be subcontracted to an off-site shop. Council also received correspondence regarding funding for the City's Urban Canopy Assessment and Expansion Plan. The Federation of Canadian Municipalities approved Martensville for a grant of up to $120,520 through the Green Municipal Fund. Several residents were also brought forward for appointment to two of the City's advisory committees. Darrell Morrison, Devon Racicot, Tam Buchan and Brent White were recommended to serve on the Protective Services Committee, which provides oversight, guidance and recommendations on public safety, emergency services, bylaw enforcement and emergency management. Susan Weber, Kevin Berthelot, Kathryn Kulchar and Bren Hannay were recommended for appointment to the Recreation and Greenspace Committee. Another significant item on the agenda involved a proposed residential development in Lake Vista. The owners of Parcel BB, located along Main Street, applied to subdivide the property as a bare land condominium. The complete development is proposed to contain 39 bungalow-style townhouse units, with 23 units included in the first phase. Plans also include internal private roadways, garage and driveway parking, landscaping and site servicing. Council previously approved the discretionary use application for the development on June 16. Council also considered a request involving a proposed indoor storage rental facility at 891 8th Street South. The developer sought permission to satisfy the site's requirement for eight parking stalls through a payment-in-lieu agreement rather than constructing the stalls on site. According to the application, customers are expected to stop in front of individual storage units to load and unload before leaving the property. A tax abatement of $1,118.68 for a property at 517 2nd Avenue South was also brought before council after an assessment appeal identified a calculation error involving the property's assessed completion percentage. It was the only tax abatement brought forward for the 2026 tax year. Department reports provided council with updates on several projects underway throughout Martensville. Mayor Kent Muench noted that landscaping at the Martensville Recreation Centre, along with work to extend paving along Main Street and the associated roadway leading to the MRC's main entrance, is expected to begin in September. The work is anticipated to be completed by the end of October. Corporate Services also reviewed the City's second-quarter budget variance report, which showed a surplus of $393,060. Several areas were performing better than originally budgeted, including the Martensville Recreation Centre. Ice rentals, fieldhouse rentals and batting cage rentals were forecast to generate approximately $101,670 more than budgeted due to strongerthan-anticipated demand. Aquatic Centre pass and rental revenue was also forecast to finish approximately $8,500 above budget. At the same time, some areas were facing higher expenses. Repairs and maintenance at the MRC were forecast to exceed budget due to costs including snow removal, HVAC maintenance and Zamboni repairs. Interest costs were also expected to be higher because monthly interest on the facility's construction line of credit was not included in the original budget. The next Martensville Council meeting will take place on September 1st at 5:00pm in Council Chambers at City Hall. More information can be found at www. martensville.ca.

64 Young Athletes Set to Take Part in Inaugural Martensville Kids’ Triathlon Shanine Sealey, Martensville Messenger

Excitement is building for Martensville’s first-ever Splash, Pedal, Run Kids’ Triathlon, with 64 young athletes registered to take part in the event on Sunday, August 30th. Presented by Craven SPORT Services and hosted by the City of Martensville, the event will give children between the ages of three and 12 an opportunity to experience a triathlon in a fun and supportive environment. Participants will be divided into three age categories: three to five, six to eight and nine to 12. Racers will complete up to a 500-metre run, 25-metre swim and 600-metre bike ride, with portions of the course adjusted based on the age and comfort level of participants. The swimming portion will be adapted to suit younger athletes and those with varying levels of confidence in the water. Depending on the participant, the swim could include travelling across the pool before going down the blue slide, using the yellow slide, or going down the red slide and swimming out of the pool. Parents will also be permitted to accompany their children throughout the race if they need some extra encouragement or support. Check-in for all participants will take place from 9:00am to 9:30am. The three-to-five-year-old race will begin at 9:45am, followed by the six-to-eight-year-old category at 10:00am and the nine-to-12-year-old racers at 10:15am. Organizers had originally hoped to attract approximately 40 participants for the inaugural event, but registration has now climbed to 64 young athletes. While regular registration has closed, City of Martensville Recreation Program Coordinator Jamie McCulloch indicated they may still be able to accommodate a few additional children. Parents interested in a last-minute registration are asked to contact the Martensville Athletic Pavilion (MAP) directly. McCulloch noted that initially, they had hoped to include a larger Vendor Village at the event; however, there was limited interest from businesses. Several event sponsors will still be on site, and the Boys and Girls Club will offer games and activities for families. Several local businesses made contributions to help make the inaugural event possible, including title sponsor Craven SPORT Services, Racer Package Sponsor Atlas Outdoors Cycle and Recreation and Snack Sponsor Carter’s Counselling. The Splash, Pedal, Run Kids’ Triathlon will take place Sunday, August 30, with the course utilizing several of Martensville’s recreational amenities and finishing in Kinsmen Park.

Come Celebrate the Life of Mike Smith at Annual Ball Tournament Jocelyn Ottenbreit, Martensville Messenger

In May 2023, friends, family, teammates, firefighters, coaches, local businesses and residents came together for the first Mike Smith Ball Tournament. Originally organized to help support Mike and his family during his battle with cancer, the event took on a different meaning when Mike passed away just days before the tournament. The community rallied together and turned it into a Celebration of Mike's life and an opportunity to support his wife and children during an incredibly difficult time and decided to make it an annual event. Mike Smith was more than a player on the ball diamond. He was a devoted husband and father, a respected member of the Martensville Fire Department, a coach, mentor, teammate and friend. His impact could be seen throughout the community, from the sports teams he coached to the countless people whose lives he touched through his kindness and willingness to help others. His legacy continues to be recognized within the community, including at the Martensville Recreation Centre, where he is honoured as a player, coach and fan. Teams gathered at the tournament not only to compete, but to share stories and celebrate the values Mike represented; community, sportsmanship, generosity and family. Local businesses donated auction items, volunteers gave their time and residents showed up in large numbers to support a family that had given so much to their community. The tournament stands as an example of how Martensville comes together when one of its own needs support. The success of the event reflected the same small-town values that continue to define the community today; coming together for a greater cause. This year’s event will be on Saturday, September 12th and is still open for registration. The cost is $400/Co-Ed 7-3 so if you are interested in participating, please contact angieskates@hotmail.com. Angela Reddekopp, one of the organizers stated, “We will also have a 50/50 and a rewind buy in that you can purchase before your game and rewind a play at some point throughout the game.” All proceeds from the tournament will be donated back to the community that he loved – to someone in need or a non-profit organization. If you aren’t registered to play, make sure to stop by to watch some ball and celebrate and remember a man whose legacy continues to inspire Martensville.

ABOVE & BELOW: Valley United Soccer Club (VUSC) kicked off its Player Showcase with two successful days of action, thanks in part to the many volunteers who helped make the event possible. Additional Showcase days are still to come as players and families prepare for the upcoming season. (VUSC)

New Supportive Housing Units Open for Women in Saskatoon The Government of Saskatchewan, in partnership with the Elizabeth Fry Society of Saskatchewan (EFSK), has opened 11 supportive housing units in Saskatoon for women involved in the justice system who may otherwise face incarceration or homelessness. The 11 one-bedroom units provide residents with stable housing and connections to services designed to meet their individual needs. "By providing safe housing and direct access to support, these homes will help women strengthen their wellbeing, increase their independence and build a foundation for long-term stability," Social Services Minister Terry Jenson said. "Our partnership with Elizabeth Fry Society of Saskatchewan is another example of how our government continues to seek new approaches to better support individuals who need more than a home to remain connected to housing." "A safe place to live is one of the most important factors in helping women successfully rebuild their lives after being involved with the justice system," Community Safety Minister Michael Weger said. "By supporting stable, affordable housing and community-based services, our government is helping to reduce barriers, strengthen reintegration efforts, and build safer, healthier communities for everyone in Saskatchewan." EFSK manages day-to-day operations, providing case management and linking residents to the resources and assistance they need. In addition to this project, the non-profit organization also owns and operates a 10-bed transitional house in Saskatoon. "Supportive housing is about far more than providing someone with a place to live," EFSK Executive Director Nicole Obrigavitch said. "It creates a foundation where women can heal, reconnect with their families and communities, and build stable, independent lives. We know that when women have safe housing and the right supports, they are far more likely to thrive. We are incredibly grateful to our provincial and federal partners for investing in solutions that address the root causes of criminalization and help build stronger, healthier communities." The Ministry of Social Services provided over $1 million for the project as part of a $5 million investment in the Rental Development Program in the 2025-26 Provincial Budget to partner with housing providers to develop new supportive housing units for people who need additional support to live independently. The Ministry of Community Safety is investing $918,000 over two years ($459,000 annually in 2026-27 and 2027-28) to EFSK to provide reintegration supports for female offenders. The Government of Canada, through their Reaching Home program also provided over $70,000 toward construction costs and more than $335,000 in program funding to support housing stabilization and wraparound services.

Funding for Saskatoon Restorative Action Program to Support Mental Health, Bullying Prevention and Healthy Relationships The Government of Saskatchewan is reaffirming its commitment to safe and supportive learning environments by continuing its partnership with the Saskatoon Restorative Action Program (RAP). This investment supports Saskatchewan's Action Plan to Address Bullying and Cyberbullying and protects students by helping them build the skills they need to navigate conflict and stay connected to their school communities. From April 1, 2026, to March 31, 2029, the Ministry of Education will provide up to $131,000 annually to support RAP's delivery of school based restorative programming. This brings the ministry's total investment in RAP to more than $1.2 million since the 2013-14 fiscal year. "Every student deserves to feel safe, supported and respected at school," Education Minister Everett Hindley said. "RAP plays a vital role in helping young people build the confidence and skills they need to manage conflict in healthy ways. This partnership continues to strengthen our schools and supports the wellbeing of students across Saskatoon and beyond." RAP will also receive up to $142,506 annually from the Ministry of Justice and Attorney General over the next four years, beginning April 1, 2026. The ministry will have invested approximately $1.48 million in the program since 2018-19. "We are proud to partner with schools and communities to fund programming that helps people resolve conflicts, develop leadership abilities, build positive relationships, and enhance their academic skills," Justice Minister and Attorney General Tim McLeod, K.C., said. "The funding we provide to these programs is part of our ongoing commitment under the Saskatchewan Growth Plan to support mental health and wellness in schools and set our students up for success as they move into adulthood." RAP works directly with youth to develop and practice conflict management, relationship-building and leadership skills through an approach focused on prevention, intervention and reconnection. They also provide students, families and schools with the knowledge, skills, resources and supports needed to feel safe and accepted at school, in the community, and online. By supporting students in addressing challenges early and constructively, the program helps create safer, more connected school environments. The program partners with Saskatoon Public and Catholic School Divisions to deliver services in 14 high schools and provides programming at North Battleford Comprehensive High School through a project with Living Sky School Division. "The Restorative Action Program provides young people with an opportunity to take accountability, repair harm and learn from their actions," RAP Saskatoon Interim President Darren Bohmann said. "It focuses on meaningful conversations, strengthening relationships and discovering positive pathways forward." Through prevention activities, one on one interventions and reconnection supports, RAP helps students address issues such as bullying, interpersonal conflict, mental health challenges, substance use and other barriers to learning. These school based restorative practices contribute to safer school environments and help students develop the skills they need to thrive academically, socially and emotionally.
