Natural Areas
as Typically, a mix of native and non-native grasses, reeds, cattails and other emergent (growing
in the water) plants, along with some wildflowers, trees and shrubs.
These areas are located along Regina’s creeks and waterways between the top of the bank and the
water’s edge, where the land is wetter. Woodlot / Forested Areas Typically, a mix of trees and shrubs with a groundcover of native and non-native grasses and
wildflowers. They can be located either right beside creeks and waterways or up the bank away from
the water. Savannah Areas Typically, a mix of native and non-native grasses, wildflowers and trees with few or no shrubs. These areas tend to be located along Regina’s
creeks and waterways above the top of the bank where the land is dryer, but where trees have been planted or grow naturally within a grassland area. Where are
Regina’s natural areas currently? Along Wascana, Pilot Butte and Chuka Creeks Along the North,
South and Harbour Landing Storm Channels In A.E. Wilson Park In Westhill Park At the McKell Wascana
Conservation Area How does the City maintain natural areas? Grassland and Savannah Areas will be
mown a maximum of once per year except in cases of extreme fire risk or in the case of severe
noxious weed infestation. Mowing, if applicable will occur in late summer to allow grass to mature
and seed itself, and to allow ground-nesting birds to fledge. This timing results in a better grass
and minimizes weeds like Canadian Thistle and Foxtail. A mown strip (typically 5m wide) will be
maintained monthly along all fence lines. A mown strip 1-2m wide will be maintained along the edge
of all pathways on a monthly or more frequent basis to allow on-leash dogs and their owners access
to shorter grass on the side of the pathway, making it easier for owners to collect pet waste.
Spot-treating weeds with insects that eat them, string trimming or manual pulling will occur on an
as-needed basis at the determination of the City. Riparian / Marsh Areas, Woodlot / Forest Areas:
No mowing will be undertaken in these areas except in cases of extreme fire risk or in the case of
severe noxious weed infestation. ...

Meldrum that responds to the history of the neighbourhood formally known as the ‘Village of North
Regina’ and the ecological importance of the natural formations of the tree snags (dead or dying standing tree). Tree snags are often a source of food and shelter to birds, insects and
animals. The intention of this work is not to interfere with the function of the snags but to
increase their functionality with the additions. Jeff Meldrum worked with the existing natural
formations of the tree snags in Māmowimīwēyitamōwin Park, working
with coloured banisters, and other material, primarily sourced from thrift stores and the Re-store
to give them new life, once again becoming part of a tree. The
banisters are painted in various colour schemes in response to the locale of the individual trees. ...

Tree Of Life
, support ecological balance and strengthen relationships across generations. Regina’s urban forest
includes all living things in the city, including trees, plants,
soil, naturalized areas, park spaces and the ecosystems that support them. Through this Call for
Design, Indigenous youth are invited to share their vision of life, growth and connection through a
“Tree of Life” design that will help shape how Regina understands
and celebrates its living landscape for generations to come. The selected design will serve as the
visual symbol of the Urban Forest Management Plan and will appear in the final policy document, as
well as educational materials, presentations, community programs and public communications. Its
purpose is to help residents connect with the goals of the Plan and the living landscape it
represents. Rooted in miskâsowin—finding one’s sense of origin and belonging—this initiative
creates space for Indigenous youth aged 12 to 20 to express who they are and how they see
themselves in relationship with the land and the City of Regina. ...

ganization’s environmental impact, and which bring us closer to a renewable Regina. “To protect,
promote and expand Regina’s urban forest and street tree canopy”
Regina’s urban forest consists of more than 500,000 hand-planted trees that produce significant environmental benefit for the community.Trees provide more benefit to communities than just aesthetics. They are a
key component to helping slow and absorb rainfall, thereby reducing flooding and reliance on
man-made stormwater management systems. On average, a mature tree
can absorb up to 1,000 gallons of rainfall every year that would otherwise require an energy
intensive process to pump and filter. ...
