Melfort City Council
Each member of City Council serves as a representative of the community at large, with all decisions made through a majority vote. Council is responsible for establishing City policy, which is then executed and managed by the City Manager.
The function and authority of City Council are outlined in The Cities Act and other relevant legislation. These responsibilities encompass both mandatory duties, such as setting the annual budget and mill rate, and discretionary powers, including oversight of zoning, licensing, building standards, and various other municipal services.

A Message from the Mayor
Melfort is a smaller city with all the amenities of a larger city. We take pride in the friendliness of our citizens and in the safe environment of our community. Melfort is located in an area that contains some of the richest farmland in Saskatchewan, and as such, Melfort is a major service center for the entire Northeast
Melfort has superb facilities for our citizens and visitors. The Northern Lights Palace, rink and swimming pool complex, is a first-rate facility rivaled by few others. It contains an 1,800-seat arena and a swimming pool with a water slide and wave technology, one of only a few in the entire province. The Kerry Vickar Centre is a multi-purpose facility, which contains the CJVR Performing Arts Theatre, the Sherven-Smith Art Gallery and Swartout Hall, which doubles as a gymnasium capable of accommodating indoor soccer. This building also includes the Affinity Credit Union Meeting Rooms as well as the Bourgault Board Room, which makes it an ideal convention center.
Melfort is home to a host of other facilities that cater to other sport, cultural, and recreation interests. A new addition to our list of outstanding facilities is the Skatepark located in the Spruce Haven Park Recreation Area. This 15,000 square foot facility has aspects that are challenging for all skill levels of skaters. Spruce Haven also includes full-size soccer pitches, an all-accessible playground, spray park, dog park, and many walking trails.
Melfort is famous for its volunteerism, as evidenced by its hosting of various events; these include Saskatchewan Summer and Winter Games, the Royal Bank Cup (Centennial Cup), and prestigious curling events such as the Viterra Scotties Tournament of Hearts Provincial Play Downs and the Curling Day in Canada Festival.
Our city provides a quality of life that is second to none. We have quality health care facilities, which include our new Wellness Centre that is attached to the hospital and currently houses multiple physicians, a quality education system and a community that is growing from a commercial standpoint, as evidenced by the StoneGate shopping development.
I am proud to be the Mayor of Melfort and to be part of a dedicated City Council that strives to continually move our city forward with constant growth and progress in the development of our community. To all visitors, I would like to say, "Welcome to our community". I sincerely hope that you enjoy your stay in our city.
Mayor Glenn George
