Telephone #               905-791-7800 ext. 3246/3247

The Region of Peel Public Works department regularly maintains and repairs the water system to make sure you have a consistent supply of quality drinking water. Sometimes we must turn off your water supply while we do this work.

Your water will be turned off on Wednesday, May 24th, 2023, from approximately 09:00 a.m. to 05:00 p.m. If we need to reschedule this work due to weather or other circumstances, we will let you know the new date and time.

If this interruption may affect an alarm or maintenance company, it is your responsibility to notify them.  During the time that the water supply is interrupted, the building’s sprinkler protection system will not function.  A fire watch should be performed as necessary during time.

After the water interruption:

When we turn the water back on, air in the pipes may make the water cloudy and your plumbing may vibrate or make noise.  We recommend removing the air by slowly turning on your taps from the lowest to the highest faucet in the building (that is, starting in the basement/first floor and finishing on the top floor). Flush the toilets as well. You will likely need to run the water for 10 to 30 seconds.  Run the water until it is clear, and any vibration or noise has stopped.

Important note:  After the water is turned back on, we recommend checking your water meter (usually located in the basement).  If it is leaking, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:

  • (905) 791 – 7800 Ext. 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)

WHAT?
• The lands south of Little Etobicoke Creek surrounding Dixie Road, referred to as “Dixie-Dundas” for this project, are subject to flooding as a result of spilling from the creek during high flow conditions. This urban area consists of a variety of commercial, industrial, residential, and park land uses.
• The study area of this Schedule ‘C’ Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) has been broken up into the “Dixie Area” and the “Dundas Area” for identifying flood mitigation solutions. An expansion of the study area was required to include the Dundas Street
East crossing areas to seek flood mitigation solutions for the Dixie-Dundas area.

WHERE?

WHY?
• The City of Mississauga has an interest to protect flood-vulnerable residences and businesses as well as to intensify Dixie-Dundas area to fulfill the vision of growth expressed in the Dundas Connects Master Plan.

HOW?
• In consultation with the public and agencies, the alternative solutions for both the “Dixie Area” and the “Dundas Area” have been evaluated to identify preferred alternatives for each.
• The preferred solutions are aimed to mitigate the risks of flooding, to the extent possible, to people, property, and infrastructure. At the end of the EA, a report documenting the process will be available for public review.

GET INVOLVED!
• Consultation is an essential part of the EA process. We want to ensure that anyone with an interest in the project has the opportunity to provide input at this stage.
• Public engagement is an important part of the project allowing local residents and interested members of the public the opportunity to review project information and provide input.
• A narrated presentation and downloadable information package discussing the project and flood mitigation solutions will be available online at the website below from May 16 to June 23, 2023.
