Join us for A Virtual or In-Person (Statutory) Open House Meeting

for the Draft New Official Plan

The City is preparing to finalize its new Official Plan to guide how Mississauga will grow and develop over the next 25 years. From housing and transportation to the environment and economy, the Official Plan includes important policies that help to shape our city.

As we work to finalize the plan, the City is hosting two community meetings for the public to learn more, ask questions and share comments.

To date, public input has played an important part in shaping the policies that make up the new Official Plan, including:

• Where housing, industry, offices and shops should go
• Which services and amenities such as parks, schools, roads, trails and transit are needed
• How we protect the city’s culture, heritage and environment
• How the city should grow and what growth will look like

The draft new Official Plan will be available on the City’s website for review the week of February 12, 2024.

Background:
Mississauga Official Plan guides how the City will grow and develop, as required by the Ontario Planning Act. The goals and policies of this draft new Official Plan are intended to be achieved by 2051.

The Official Plan provides the basis for Mississauga’s land use planning and urban design, in line with the City’s Strategic Plan. Its policies address important parts of city-building that affect everyone that lives and works in Mississauga, including transportation, housing, culture and heritage, the environment and the economy.

Every 10 years the City reviews and updates the plan with ideas and guidance from the community. The City is moving forward with the next phase and is releasing the draft new Official Plan for the upcoming virtual and in person open house meetings to seek feedback.
