Grasswood Market Impact Study
To better inform how the Grasswood area within the former Corman Park-Saskatoon Planning District might be developed, Corman Park and Saskatoon engaged Cushing Terrell Architecture Inc. along with their sub-consultant Preferred Choice Development Strategists, to complete a Mixed Use Node Market Impact Study.
The study objectives were to:
- identify the amount and type of development (commercial, residential, institutional) needed to meet projected growth while ensuring the viability of the region’s existing markets in the R.M. and City are not compromised;
- identify a maximum square footage for commercial development in the Grasswood Mixed Use Node;
- identify a phasing strategy for development in the Grasswood Mixed-Use Node; and,
- identify requirements for future Market Impact Assessments for proposed new development in the Grasswood Mixed Use Node.
The final study includes location and population statistics and an overview of the feasible market-based demand for future uses and the allocation of such demand up to the year 2050. Included are a set of recommendations and future land use considerations. The recommendations also recognize continued need for dialogue and communications with First Nations rights-holders in the area related to partnerships on long term planning and servicing.
The implementation of the study recommendations will be incorporated into the South East Concept Plan and P4G Planning District.
