Executive Summary
Yorkton Housing Project Market Assessment Findings
The Need and Demand
Assessment compiled and
analyzed secondary data,
developed employment,
population, and housing
forecasts, examined market
segments, and explored
considerations relevant to new
housing development in the
City of Yorkton, R.M. of Orkney
No. 244, Town of Springside,
and Village of Ebenezer market
(Yorkton CA Market).
Assuming forecast population
growth of 1.06% per annum for
Yorkton Census Agglomeration
(CA) with 1.11% population
growth in the City of Yorkton
and corresponding dwelling
growth is realized then about
1,478 additional dwelling units
in the Yorkton CA would be
required over the next 10 years with about 1,467 of the new dwelling units in the City of Yorkton,
a potential decline of -39 units in the R.M. of Orkney No. 244, about 40 more units in the Town
of Springside, and 10 more units in the Village of Ebenezer. This would include 1,104 more owner
dwelling units, 140 more tenant rental units, 159 affordable rental units, and 75 student
affordable rental units by 2025 in the Yorkton CA.
Conclusion #1: There continues to be a strong need for additional housing and rental housing
in the Yorkton CA area over the next 10 years with a further 1,500 dwelling units needed over
the next decade should forecast employment and population growth occur.
Household income levels are below provincial and national levels in Yorkton. The average
household income before tax in the Yorkton CA is -11.8% below the provincial level and after-tax

is -10.4% below the Saskatchewan average. Housing costs in the Yorkton CA are below provincial
averages with average dwelling value -13.7% lower than the provincial average and the median
dwelling value was -20.1% below the provincial median level in the 2011 National Household
Survey. Average monthly owner shelter costs were -11.9% lower than the provincial average and
renter monthly average monthly shelter costs were -11.9% lower than the provincial renter
average.
The steady activity in the Yorkton market can result in construction costs consistent with other
Saskatchewan communities. Rental rates tend to be lower in Yorkton which tends to be a
challenge for provincial average project costs. The lower income levels in the Yorkton CA does
support more social, affordable, and entry level housing options compared to the Saskatchewan
average.
Conclusion #2: Lower income levels in the Yorkton CA inhibits the community’s ability to afford
solely higher value market housing creating a need for social and affordable housing.
Based on the nature of multi-unit projects lot needs then about 550 to 625 more lots would be
required over the next 10 years to support about 450 more residences and 100 to 125 multi-unit
projects (for about 1,025 multi-unit dwelling units). The Yorkton CA would need to have at least
55 residential and 10 to 12 multi-unit lots available per year on average to support the potential
growth.
Depending on the appropriate economies of scale and timeframe to develop additional lots a
two to three year rolling supply of inventory should be considered. An inventory of 120 to 145
available residential and multi-unit lots or more should be sustained in the City of Yorkton at any
given time to capture anticipated future area growth.
Conclusion #3: Potential additional housing growth in the City of Yorkton and area at a healthy
pace over the next 10 years would require about 550 to 625 lots for about 450 single family
dwellings and about 1,025 multi-unit dwellings.
Based upon the projected housing needs for the community, the City of Yorkton + R.M. of Orkney
No. 244 + Town of Springside + Village of Ebenezer should continue to support pursuit of
additional housing in the community with interested developers and community based
organizations. Housing needs exist along the entire housing continuum.
Conclusion #4: There is a strong need for additional housing development in the Yorkton market
with forecast demand to support a number of housing projects based on a healthy market
supply and demand balance and absorption for new dwelling units.

The Yorkton CA area population growth modelling baseline uses the Saskatchewan Health 10
year annual average growth rate of 1.06% forecast. The population forecast over the 14 years to
2025 population growth is for growth of 3,425 people for the Yorkton CA should the base trend
continue. A lower than base model would see the increase in overall area population limited to
656 by 2025. Upper population growth modelling with job growth has the potential to realize
4,839 more people by 2025 since 2011.
Projected Housing Need in the Yorkton Area Market
The Yorkton CA area growth
modelling baseline is forecast
over the 14 years to 2025
growth of 1,816 dwellings units
for the Yorkton CA should the
10 year base population trend
continue. This is anticipated to
generate 478 more dwellings
over the next few years by 2016
(413 have already been built),
497 dwellings over the next 5
years to 2021, and 467
dwellings over the next 8 to 10
years in the Yorkton CA to
2025.
This model for the Yorkton CA
would include about 265
residents in the Village of
Ebenezer, 815 residents in the
Town of Springside, 698 residents in the R.M. of Orkney No. 244, and 21,672 residents in the City
of Yorkton by 2025. The model would include a potential further increase in housing of 14 units
in the Village of Ebenezer, 42 units in the Town of Springside, decline of -59 dwelling units in the
R.M. of Orkney No. 244, and growth of about 1,811 more dwellings in the City of Yorkton by 2025
since 2011 (on average over 129.4 dwelling units per annum in the City and over 129.7 units per
annum in the Yorkton CA). The recent Yorkton CA 2011 to 2014 period experienced a similar
average annual growth of 103.3 new dwelling units per annum.

The Yorkton Housing Development Opportunity
Assuming forecast population and dwelling growth is realized then about 1,478 additional
dwelling units in the Yorkton CA with 1,467 new dwelling units in the City of Yorkton would be
required over the next 10 years. This would include 1,104 more owner dwelling units, 140 more
tenant rental units, 159 affordable rental units, and 75 student affordable rental units by 2025 in
the Yorkton CA.
Recommendation #1: That the Yorkton Housing Committee and City of Yorkton continue to
examine housing market segments, community housing funding models, developing an
updated community housing plan, and advancing target housing opportunities.
The project concept, location, housing mixture, scale, phasing, costing, and target market
segments are key areas impacting the market absorption of additional new housing units.
A number of follow-up actions can be incorporated into the Community Housing Plan update and
initiatives flowing from the completed plan.
Recommendation #2: That the Yorkton Housing Committee and City of Yorkton identify key
specific housing project opportunities to seek proponents and / or community based
organizations to further define various target projects scale, market niche, and potential
locations based on the market assessment, funding options, and emerging housing plan under
development.

1.6. The Yorkton Community Housing Plan Update Project Need and Demand Assessment
As part of the Housing Plan Update Project, Preferred Choice recommended accessing Canada
Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) Seed Funding to add an updated Need and Demand
Assessment for the project. CMHC Seed Funding has been approved for the Need and Demand
Assessment along with potential funds to develop a Preliminary Analysis of Project Financial
Viability Phase and a subsequent Business Planning Phase for a potential target housing project.
The City of Yorkton on behalf of the Yorkton Housing Committee retained Preferred Choice for
the assignment including the Housing Need and Demand Assessment portion to compile
information, provide analysis, and documentation for unmet housing need and demand.
Preferred Choice’s Development Specialists consulted with the City of Yorkton by:
I. Client Project Engagement
II. Review Existing Information
III. Secondary Information Collection
IV. Assessing Yorkton Area’s Housing Supply and Demand Need
V. Forecasting Yorkton Area’s Housing Development Opportunity
VI. Providing the Yorkton Area Housing Need & Demand Assessment Report
Due to limited statistical information available for the Village of Ebenezer in the most recent 2011
National Household Survey (NHS), data for the Yorkton CA and City of Yorkton is used for select
modelling purposes. Statistics Canada offers additional data for Census Agglomerations which is
used for the housing need and demand market assessment. The combined Yorkton CA grouping
was utilized for the forecasting and analysis of the housing need for the community in most
instances.

3.0 Housing Development Model
3.1. The Housing Continuum
The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has a range of reports, tools and
programs to assist communities, agencies, developers, home owners, and tenants in addressing
housing needs.
CMHC has defined the housing continuum to represent the range of housing typically seen in
smaller communities with less than 25,000 population. The range of housing options view
housing with government support to be ‘social housing’ while non-market housing fits under
‘affordable housing’. The key difference is that affordable housing includes housing provided by
the private, public, and not-for-profit sectors, below market rates.

3.2. Assessing the Yorkton and Area Development Need
There are varying degrees of secondary information available for conducting a need and demand
assessment. The Yorkton Census Agglomeration (CA) has been utilized due to the level of
information available for this size of a community. The Census Agglomeration includes the City
of Yorkton, R.M. of Orkney No. 244, Town of Springside, and Village of Ebenezer. NHS data for
the Village of Ebenezer had been suppressed due to the sample size, however the information
for the Yorkton CA does provide an in depth view of the area. For comparative purposes, some
information on each of the communities in the Yorkton CA is provided as available along with the
Census Division No. 9 and Yorkton - Melville Economic Region areas which include the Yorkton
CA. Comparative information for the Province of Saskatchewan and Canada also have been
utilized as reference points.

3.4. Recent Economic Activity
The Yorkton CA has experienced recent population and jobs growth. The anticipated continuing
growth has guided the assessment of the housing development and demand needs for Yorkton
and area.
Yorkton area is a key market and important part of the growth Saskatchewan is experiencing.
Growth has impacted costs of construction and general items in Saskatchewan with the
Consumer Price Index rising faster than the national levels.
Average wages in Saskatchewan have experienced strong growth in recent years. Lower
borrowing costs have helped trigger further investment. Appendix A contains an overview of a
number of provincial economic indicators.
The Yorkton Area Housing Development Need and Demand Assessment utilizes available
information to understand the area supply, demand, and growth needs to examine housing
development opportunities along the community housing continuum to target suitable housing
needs and potential for City of Yorkton, R.M. of Orkney No. 244, Town of Springside, and Village
of Ebenezer.
Refer to Appendix B for Demographic Information, Appendix C for Housing Information, and

6.1. Yorkton Area Housing Market Overview
The first settlers arrived in the Yorkton area in 1882 as the York Farmers Colonization Company
established colonies across Western Canada. In 1882 the “York Colony” settlement and the
hamlet, were erected on the banks of the Little White Sand River "York City" situated 2 ½ miles
(4.6 kilometers) north of present day Yorkton. Yorkton moved to its present location when the
Manitoba & North Western Railway extended westward in 1890. Yorkton was incorporated as a
village in 1884 and became a town in 1900. On February 1, 1928 Yorkton became a City.
Up until recently, the highest level of dwelling construction had been strongest in the 1960s with
1,730 new dwellings or on average 173 dwellings per year during the 1960s. Recently the pace
of annual activity generated an average number of dwelling units at 103.3 units per annum or
413 units during 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014 according to City of Yorkton and CHMC Starts &
Completions Survey data. Statistics Canada noted the 1970s as the next busiest era of dwelling
construction, followed by the 1980s, 2011 to 2014, 2006 to 2011, and 1946 to 1960.

Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC) has a number of tools to assist communities
in developing a housing action plan. One of the approaches is to assess the availability of current
housing and future need for housing by residential tenure and unit size in bedrooms. Utilizing
information from the City of Yorkton, Yorkton Community Based Housing Organizations, the 2011
Statistics Canada National Household Survey and Census, and CHMC Starts and Completions
Survey, the following overview of the current housing composition for Yorkton CA shows about
8,173 households. There is an estimated 348 rental and senior and assisted living units, 180
affordable family units, 29 accessible and special needs, and 40 individual units in Yorkton. The
Yorkton CA has about 5,288 single dwelling units, 435 multi-unit, and 155 movable housing units.
The estimated level of rental units includes 882 apartments, 559 single detached rental houses,
and 232 multi-unit properties. The R.M. of Orkney No. 244 represents 750 of these households,
the Town of Springside represents 227 of the households, the Village of Ebenezer represents 87
of the households, with the balance of the estimated 7,109 dwellings in the City of Yorkton.

Further multi-unit and single family lots will be required for future growth.
6.3. Recent Housing Demand Activity
Depending on the potential realized growth, a further increase in the number of available lots is
required to continue to realize the full growth potential of the community in the years ahead. As
a frame of reference there were 215 new residential dwelling building permits in the City of
Yorkton from 2009 to August 2015 and 55 multi-unit project permits.
The CMHC Starts and Completions Survey noted 847 housing starts between 2005 and 2014 in
the Yorkton CA. There were 785 units completed from 2005 to 2014 in the Yorkton CA with 628
units or 80.0% in the City of Yorkton, 130 units or 16.5% in the R.M. of Orkney No. 244, and 27 or
3.4% in the Town of Springside & Village of Ebenezer. Over the past 10 years the peak number
of housing units completed was 113 in 2012 with 103 units in the City of Yorkton. The 10 Year

Assuming 1,500 more housing units were built (on average 150 per annum) with a similar mix of
individual residences and multi-unit projects then about 550 to 625 more lots would be required
over the next 10 years to support about 450 more residences and 100 to 125 multi-unit projects
(for about 1,025 multi-unit dwelling units). Should 1,500 more units be built in the City of Yorkton
over the next 10 years, the City would need to have at least 55 residential and 10 to 12 multi-unit
lots available per year to support the potential growth. This level of development would be
similar to the housing construction activity the community experienced in 2012 and 2013. At
least a two year supply of 125 to 150 lots is recommended for the Yorkton CA with about 120 to
145 lots available in the City of Yorkton.
The key item here is that a plan with sufficient sub-divisions needs to be in place with capacity for
development of about 550 to 625 more lots with a rolling target of servicing a sufficient number
of properties based a sustainable inventory of about 120 to 145 available residential and multi-
unit lots or more in Yorkton CA at any given time.
Over $46.9 million of new residential construction and over $44.1 million of new multi-unit
construction occurred over the past 5 years between 2009 and 2014 in the City of Yorkton.
The community needs to encourage investment and development partnerships to increase the
availability of serviced lots and the build-out of residences to address future housing needs.

7.0 Housing Development Scenarios
Information on housing growth modelling for the Yorkton CA including the City of Yorkton, R.M.
of Orkney No. 244, Town of Springside, and Village of Ebenezer is contained in Appendix C of this
report.
7.1. Housing Demand Modelling
The Yorkton CA area growth modelling baseline is forecast over the 14 years to 2025 growth of
1,816 dwellings units for the Yorkton CA should the 10 year base population trend continue. This
is anticipated to generate 478 more dwellings over the next few years by 2016 (413 have already
been built), 497 dwellings over the next 5 years to 2021, and 467 dwellings over the next 8 to 10
years in the Yorkton CA to 2025.
This model for the Yorkton CA would include about 265 residents in the Village of Ebenezer, 815
residents in the Town of Springside, 698 residents in the R.M. of Orkney No. 244, and 21,672
residents in the City of Yorkton by 2025. The model would include a potential further increase in
housing of 14 units in the Village of Ebenezer, 42 units in the Town of Springside, decline of -59
dwelling units in the R.M. of Orkney No. 244, and growth of about 1,811 more dwellings in the
City of Yorkton by 2025 since 2011 (on average over 129.4 dwelling units per annum in the City
and over 129.7 units per annum in the Yorkton CA). The recent Yorkton CA 2011 to 2014 period
experienced a similar average annual growth of 103.3 new dwelling units per annum.

The model utilized Yorkton CA rental rates, housing costs, federal and provincial affordability
levels, and the 30% of household income on major shelter cost to determine the housing
continuum thresholds for the Yorkton CA.
The Yorkton CA projected Housing Continuum Needs and Thresholds suggests the potential need
for about an additional 494 units by 2025 as Government Subsidized Social Housing in the
$72,250 or less house price range with $440 per month or less mortgage costs assuming the
maximum level of mortgage financing or rent of $600 or less for rental units, which is typically
well suited to the income levels of this market segment. Non-Market Housing is projected to
require about an additional 497 Affordable units by 2025 in the $72,250 to $174,999 price range
with $440 to $1,075 per month mortgage costs assuming the maximum level of mortgage
financing, which could also be met by additional affordable rental housing in the community with
rent between $600 to $1,350 per month. From Non-Market to Market Entry Level Housing about
240 units by 2025 is projected in the $175,000 to $254,999 price range with $1,075 to $1,550 per

7.3. Yorkton Area Housing Growth Forecast Implications
Reviewing the recent housing construction in the Yorkton CA on an average annual basis during
the reference construction periods, the Yorkton CA is anticipated to have housing back off slightly
and then have construction activity pick-up consistent with the past eight years provided
sufficient lots and developers are able to proceed with new projects in a timely fashion.
The forecast period is suggested to be at a slower pace for the two years between 2015 and 2016
with potential for steady average annual construction growth between 2017 and 2021 depending
on the timing of area growth and new housing captured in the community. The level between
2011 and 2025 is forecast at about 130 new units per annum. From 2011 to 2014 the Yorkton
CA averaged 103.3 new units being added per annum.

As the projections for additional housing needs has focused on employment and population
growth, this does not include any significant additional housing needs for seniors staying in the
community, area farmers interested in moving into the City and surrounding area, attraction of
individuals looking for housing in the east central area, or other individuals that may move into
the community. The previous table can be adjusted to consider additional projected housing
needs of other groups for the Yorkton CA.
The key item here is that about 374 rental units or about 35-40 per year including student and
affordable housing projects plus about 1,104 owner housing units or about 100-120 per year for
a total of about 1,478 units or 135-160 housing units per year are forecast for the Yorkton CA over
the next 10 years.
7.4. Yorkton Housing Growth Forecast Considerations for Various Market Segments
The Yorkton Housing Committee and City of Yorkton intend to identify a number of housing
project options to best address forecast housing growth need and demand for the Yorkton area.
Further consideration of various market segments will occur in a number of supplemental reports
and the Updated Yorkton Community Housing Plan as part of this project. Some initial
considerations for various market segments are noted below.
7.4.1. Yorkton Area Social and Affordable Housing
There are approximately 600 Accessible and Seniors units geared towards Seniors, Families,
Individual, and Accessible & Special Needs offered by Community Based Organizations geared
towards lower income tenants. These units for regular tenants (non-transitional / non-
emergency) are provided by the Yorkton Housing Authority, Yorkton Housing Corporation,
Yorkton Parkland Housing Society, Provincial Métis Housing Corporation (PMHC), and YAIL
Harbor Inc. (Yorkton Adult Independent Living).
A further 159 Social and Affordable Housing Units (excluding Student Housing) has been forecast
for the area over the next 10 years. The need for these units may exceed the forecast
development depending on area rental rates, income supplements for individuals living in units
available in the market from private operators beyond those provided by community based
organizations.
7.4.2. Yorkton Area Seniors Housing Need
The Yorkton Housing Authority and Yorkton Housing Corporation collectively have 348 Seniors
Social and Affordable Housing Units.
September 2015 preferred choice
Yorkton Area Housing Need and Demand Assessment Page | 51
A further 110 Social and Affordable Senior Housing Units has been forecast for the area over the
next 10 years. The need for these units may exceed the forecast development depending on area
rental rates, income supplements for individuals living in units available in the market from
private operators beyond those provided by community based organizations.
Additional market housing and private affordable housing for seniors will also be required to
serve the future need for seniors housing in the Yorkton area over the next 10 years.
7.4.3. Yorkton Area Student Housing Need
The Parkland College currently utilizes 30,731 square feet of facilities for post-secondary
education and training programs delivered in Yorkton according to the Parkland College Business
Plan 2014-2015. The lease for the main programs and administration dedicated space of 25,511
square feet has been renewed until 2023.
The Parkland College opened a new Trades and Technology Centre (TTC) in Yorkton in September
2015. The project was made possible by a $10 million contribution from the Province of
Saskatchewan, $3.48 million land contribution from the City of Yorkton, and about $5 million of
community fundraising contributions. The 29,000 square foot facility features a 10,000-square-
foot multi-trades shop, science lab, welding lab, power engineering lab, six classrooms,
study/tutorial rooms, and administrative space. Between the core dedicated space and TTC
space the footprint of training space in Yorkton will be increased by over 75% with the new TTC.
According to the 2013-14 Parkland College Annual Report there was 542.95 FLE (Full-Load-
Equivalent) student enrolment at the Yorkton Campus. The new Trades and Technology Centre
(TTC) is designed to support 350 FLEs in Yorkton. The TTC could support a 65% or more growth
in enrolment in Yorkton.
The new Trades and Technology Centre is estimated to need about 142 additional beds for
Yorkton to accommodate the envisioned additional 350 students, based on an October 2013
student survey noted in the Parkland College Business Plan 2014-2015. An estimated 75 student
units has been identified as a housing need in Yorkton related to the new Trades and Technology
Centre.
7.4.4. Yorkton Area Aboriginal People
According to 2011 Statistics Canada National Household Survey data 10.5% of the population or
1,895 people in the Yorkton Census Agglomeration and 11.9% of the population or 1,815 people
in the City of Yorkton were aboriginal. The Yorkton CA Aboriginal origins had 1,500 with First
Nations and 530 with Métis origins.

Yorkton Area Housing Need and Demand Assessment Page | 52
Saskatchewan Health 2014 Covered Population noted 6.7% of the population or 1,395 Registered
Indian Persons (First Nations) in the Yorkton CA and 7.2% of the population or 1,373 First Nations
People in the City of Yorkton.
The Aboriginal population is a young growing segment of the community.
7.4.5. Immigration to the Yorkton Area
According to 2011 Statistics Canada National Household Survey data 640 people in the Yorkton
CA were immigrants or 3.6% of the population. Half of the immigrants to the Yorkton CA (320
Immigrants) moved to the area between 2001 and 2011. Between 2006 and 2011 250
Immigrants moved into the Yorkton CA.
The Immigrant population is an important segment contributing to growth of the community.
The key item here is that community population and housing growth will be driven by a
combination of demographic segments with a range of housing needs across the housing
continuum.

9.0 Conclusions and Next Steps
9.1. Yorkton Area Housing Need and Demand Opportunity
From 2005 to 2014 there were 847 new housing unit starts with 785 units completed in the
Yorkton CA during that timeframe according to the CMHC Starts and Completions Survey. Over

Assuming forecast population growth of 1.06% per annum for Yorkton CA with 1.11% population
growth in the City of Yorkton and corresponding dwelling growth is realized then about 1,478
additional dwelling units in the Yorkton CA would be required over the next 10 years with about
1,467 of the new dwelling units in the City of Yorkton, a potential decline of -39 units in the R.M.
of Orkney No. 244, about 40 more units in the Town of Springside, and 10 more units in the
Village of Ebenezer. This would include 1,104 more owner dwelling units, 140 more tenant rental
units, 159 affordable rental units, and 75 student affordable rental units by 2025 in the Yorkton
CA.
Conclusion #1: There continues to be a strong need for additional housing and rental housing
in the Yorkton CA area over the next 10 years with a further 1,500 dwelling units needed over
the next decade should forecast employment and population growth occur.
Potential demand could require up to 478 additional dwelling units between 2011 and 2016 (413
have already been built), 497 dwelling units for 2016 to 2021, and 467 dwelling units during
between 2021 and 2024, plus 75 student affordable rental units. The level of rental units for the
market is impacted by the availability of potential social housing and general economic
conditions.

Household income levels are below provincial and national levels in Yorkton. The average
household income before tax in the Yorkton CA is -11.8% below the provincial level and after-tax
is -10.4% below the Saskatchewan average.
The average owned household dwelling value in the Yorkton CA was -13.7% lower than the
provincial average and the median dwelling value for Yorkton CA was -20.1% below the provincial
median level in the 2011 National Household Survey.
The average monthly owner shelter costs for the Yorkton CA in the 2011 NHS were -11.9% lower
than the provincial average and -15.4% lower than the owner median monthly shelter costs.
The average monthly renter shelter costs for the Yorkton CA in the 2011 NHS were -11.9% lower
than the provincial renter average and -11.3% lower than the renter median monthly shelter
costs. The Yorkton CA consistently has had lower rental rates in Saskatchewan with Total Average
Apartment rental rates -14.2% below the Saskatchewan 10,000+ population average monthly
rental rates in the Spring of 2015. The Spring 2015 Yorkton CA Level 1 Rental Affordability Rate
ranges from -4.8% below to 21.6% above the provincial Level 1 rate from CMHC.
The steady activity in the Yorkton market can result in construction costs consistent with other
Saskatchewan communities. Rental rates tend to be lower in Yorkton which tends to be a
challenge for provincial average project costs. The lower income levels in the Yorkton CA does
support more social, affordable, and entry level housing compared to the Saskatchewan average.
Conclusion #2: Lower income levels in the Yorkton CA inhibits the community’s ability to afford
solely higher value market housing creating a need for social and affordable housing.
9.2. Yorkton Housing Development Opportunity
The Yorkton Housing Committee and City of Yorkton commissioned this Needs and Demand
Assessment for general planning purposes as part of updating a Community Housing Plan.
The recent City of Yorkton + R.M. of Orkney No. 244 + Town of Springside + Village of Ebenezer
2011 to 2014 period experienced a similar average annual growth of 103.3 new dwelling units
per annum. The forecast of about 140 to 150 units per annum over the next 10 years is at a
higher yet healthy rate compared to recent activity. Stronger growth potential is based on the
opportunity to capture additional residents employed in the area along with the decreasing
average population per residence trend.
Based on the nature of multi-unit projects lot needs then about 550 to 625 more lots would be
required over the next 10 years to support about 450 more residences and 100 to 125 multi-unit
projects (for about 1,025 multi-unit dwelling units). The Yorkton CA would need to have at least
September 2015 preferred choice
Yorkton Area Housing Need and Demand Assessment Page | 60
55 residential and 10 to 12 multi-unit lots available per year on average to support the potential
growth.
Depending on the appropriate economies of scale and timeframe to develop additional lots a
two to three year rolling supply of inventory should be considered. An inventory of 120 to 145
available residential and multi-unit lots or more should be sustained in the City of Yorkton at any
given time to capture anticipated future area growth.
Conclusion #3: Potential additional housing growth in the City of Yorkton and area at a healthy
pace over the next 10 years would require about 550 to 625 lots for about 450 single family
dwellings and about 1,025 multi-unit dwellings.
Based upon the projected housing needs for the community, the City of Yorkton + R.M. of Orkney
No. 244 + Town of Springside + Village of Ebenezer should continue to support pursuit of
additional housing in the community with interested developers and community based
organizations. Housing needs exist along the entire housing continuum.
Conclusion #4: There is a strong need for additional housing development in the Yorkton market
with forecast demand to support a number of housing projects based on a healthy market
supply and demand balance and absorption for new dwelling units.
Key factors for proponents pursuing new housing development projects is to strategically
position their project(s) to meet the need for target housing market segments by:
Securing a suitable site(s) / land / or existing locations ideal for the project
Providing experienced construction and project management to enable the project to occur
in a timely manner
Having strong project managers to ensure the project is developed in a cost-effective manner
Targeting particular market segments to meet the needs of particular owner and tenant
groups in the area
Delivering quality project and property management services to attract, service, and retain
unit sales and tenants in a well-run housing development
Recommendation #1: That the Yorkton Housing Committee and City of Yorkton continue to
examine housing market segments, community housing funding models, developing an
updated community housing plan, and advancing target housing opportunities.
The project concept, location, housing mixture, scale, phasing, costing, and target market
segments are key areas impacting the market absorption of additional new housing units.
A number of follow-up actions can be incorporated into the Community Housing Plan update and
initiatives flowing from the completed plan.
September 2015 preferred choice
Yorkton Area Housing Need and Demand Assessment Page | 61
Recommendation #2: That the Yorkton Housing Committee and City of Yorkton identify key
specific housing project opportunities to seek proponents and / or community based
organizations to further define various target projects scale, market niche, and potential
locations based on the market assessment, funding options, and emerging housing plan under
development.
Identifying potential sites for various projects with the appropriate site zoning is an important
part of the housing development planning process.
There may be various Saskatchewan Housing Corporation and Canada Mortgage and Housing
Corporation programs available that may provide financial contributions to proposed Housing
Development Projects in Yorkton. These programs and traditional financing require a developed
business case and business plan. A number of private and community based organization
partnerships are also possible to address forecast housing need and demand.
Recommendation #3: That the Yorkton Housing Committee and City of Yorkton continue to
work with the project advisors and potential partners to proceed with the initiation of the
Financial Viability Analysis and Business Plan Development phases for a select target project.

Saskatchewan Housing Corporation - Rental Development Program
The Rental Development Program provides one time capital funding to develop affordable rental

Proposal Development Funding (PDF)
The CMHC Affordable Housing Centre offers Proposal Development Funding (PDF), which are
repayable interest-free loans to facilitate the development of affordable housing in Canada. PDF
loans help with the up-front expenses incurred during the process of developing an affordable
housing project proposal and enable housing proponents to carry out the activities required to
bring their proposal to the point where they can apply for mortgage financing.
Up to $100,000 is available to develop an affordable housing project proposal. CMHC will
determine the actual amount, depending on the size and complexity of the intended project and
how much development work needs to be done. In order to be eligible, all expenses must be
incurred after CMHC’s written approval of PDF.
Units must be modest in size, design, and amenities in relation to comparable units in the area,
and for rental projects: Rents for the majority of units in a housing project must be within the
levels representing the 80th and 65th rent percentiles (referred to as Levels 1 and 2, respectively).
The rent levels are derived from the most recent data gathered from CMHC’s rental market
survey and are published semi-annually by CMHC.

General Programs
Encouraging Community Housing Options (ECHO) - Housing Plan Component
Encouraging Community Housing Options is a financial assistance program composed of three
components that aim to help communities and municipalities meet and sustain the housing
needs of their residents.
The Development Component provides a grant to help groups conduct research to determine
feasibility of developing and investing in housing projects. Non-profit and co-operative groups,
private corporations and municipalities are eligible to apply for this component of the program,
but must have undertaken preliminary planning prior to applying.
The Housing Plan Component provides cost-matched funding that helps municipalities and
regional partnerships, with a population of over 2,500, to develop a Housing Plan. Such a plan
will help applicants to understand the housing needs in their community.
Lastly, municipalities and regional partnerships with a population of over 2,500 can apply for
cost-matched funding through the Action Component, allowing them to take action on strategies
identified in a Housing Plan or other type of needs assessment.

to infill development: promotes efficient use of land; reduces development costs because the
infrastructure (streets and services) already exists; is easier for small builders to build this type
of housing, and; building materials and maintenance costs are lower because the houses are
smaller.

Expedited approval process
Strategy where the municipal development approval process may be streamlined to cut costs to
the developer. Lengthy and complicated development approvals can add to the cost of producing
housing because of the high upfront costs associated with holding land. Decreasing the length
of approvals reduces the costs of residential development and, therefore, reduces housing costs.
For instance zoning and development permit applicants may be reviewed simultaneously.
Another tool that can be available to municipalities is to give priority to proposals that include
affordable rental or ownership housing. By accelerating the approval of one project over
another, municipalities can reward developers who include these housing types.

Transitional Housing

between 30 days to two or three years. Transitional housing provides access to services and
supports needed to help individuals improve their situation and is viewed as an interim step on
the housing continuum.’

Using development levies
Strategy where development fees are used to facilitate the provisions of affordable housing,
either by requiring the developers of certain types of developments to pay a fee to support
affordable housing as a condition of approval, or by waiving, reducing or adjusting development
levies for affordable housing. When waived or adjusted for affordable housing, they are
sometimes referred to as “reserve exactions.” The best known type of development levies
related to affordable housing are “linkage fees.”

Waiving or reducing development charges and fees on new rental housing
Strategy where a municipality could encourage affordable housing projects through reducing or
waiving development charges and planning fees. Waiving or reducing these costs results in
savings for the developer which are then translated into lower selling prices.

Waiving or reducing property taxes
Strategy where a municipality can chose to waive or reduce property taxes on all or a portion of
the assessed value of the affordable housing project, over a period of time. Often taxes are
waived (or granted back) on the increased valued of the assessment due to the proposed private
investment.
