Are new construction homes in Brevoort Park required to be all-electric?

No. Saskatchewan has no all-electric mandate for new construction; the City of Saskatoon enforces the National Building Code as adopted provincially, and new homes in Brevoort Park commonly use natural gas heating through SaskEnergy alongside electrical service, the same as anywhere else in the city.

Brevoort Park is a mature, established central neighbourhood, so new construction there is almost always an infill build on a single existing lot rather than a builder's subdivision, which is a separate point from the energy source question but shapes how that infill gets approved.

A builder still needs a City of Saskatoon building permit and enrolment in the Saskatchewan New Home Warranty Program regardless of whether the home uses gas heating, electric heating, or both, and a Saskatchewan lawyer closing the purchase, typically $800 to $1,500 in legal fees, confirms that enrolment before possession either way.

Confirm the specific mechanical systems in a builder's contract rather than assuming a rule that does not apply here. Get your hand-reviewed valuation from Joel Dyck.
