People who want to send letters or other snail-mail items to St. Michael School will have to update their address books because the school now has a new address.
The school’s original address was 1111 Brown Street, but infrastructure upgrades at the school — the main door was moved — mean the building’s new address is 920 11th Avenue Northwest, according to a civic address change application that Holy Trinity Catholic School Division submitted to city hall in late August.
The development permit fee to change the address was $25.
“Please find enclosed a map indicating that the civic address assigned to the above captioned property is 920-11th Avenue Northwest. The previous address was 1111 Brown Street,” an Aug. 31 letter from city hall to the division office said.
“Please make the necessary changes as the address becomes effective immediately upon receipt of this letter. By copy of this letter, we are notifying relevant agencies regarding the official civic addresses.”
The agencies that city hall contacted about the address change include Shaw Cable, SaskTel, Moose Jaw and District EMS, the Saskatchewan Civic Address Registry, the police service, the fire department, the Saskatchewan Assessment Management Agency co-ordinator, the municipal water department, and two municipal engineering supervisors.
The report with the address change was presented during the recent Holy Trinity board meeting.
“It’s absolutely amazing how fast city council flipped that (application) over,” education director Ward Strueby said. “We expected it to be three to four months (before approval).”
The next Holy Trinity board meeting is Monday, Oct. 24.
