From CBC:

Quote:
A Regina-area First Nation has signed an agreement with the city that could be the first step to establishing an urban reserve in the heart of a city neighbourhood.

Piapot First Nation has bought property in the city's north-central area that it hopes could become home to a grocery, pharmacy, gas bar and offices. Some members of the First Nation, located about 50 kilometres north of the city, live in Regina.

On Tuesday, Mayor Pat Fiacco and Piapot Chief John Rockthunder signed a servicing agreement that will allow the band to receive policing, fire and other city services. In return, the band won't pay property taxes, but will pay servicing fees.
