As a result of higher temperatures and drying conditions, the Fire Danger Rating in Saddle Hills County has changed from HIGH to VERY HIGH.

As of May 1, 2025, the Fire Advisory in Saddle Hills County has been upgraded to a FIRE RESTRICTION.

Recently, Saddle Hills County changed how they provide assessment services, switching from in-house assessors to external assessor, Aaron Steblyk and his team at Compass Assessment Consultants Inc.

As part of this transition, some changes had to be made to the way in which assessment values were calculated for 2025, in order to align with provincial regulations and assessment best practices. This change will cause varying impacts on landowner’s property assessments.
