Water Interruption Notice – C-603876, 1351 Northmount Ave, Mississauga, Friday December 13

By Resources, Ward 1

The Peel Region 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 Friday December 13th, 9:00am to 5:00pm. If we need to reschedule this work due to weather or other circumstances, we will let you know the new date and time.

Property owner/manager responsibilities during a water interruption

As a property owner/manager, it is your responsibility to:

  • Ensure maintenance, mechanical or plumbing staff are on site during the water interruption, as it may affect internal systems that rely on water such as boilers, fire suppression, and alarms.
  • Notify the fire alarm company if the interruption could affect an alarm system.
  • Have a fire watch completed during the water interruption, as the building’s sprinkler protection system will not function when the water supply is shut off.

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). 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 the water meter (usually located in the basement). If it is leaking, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:

  • 905-791-7800 extension 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)
  • 905-791-7800 extension 4409 (after hours or statutory holidays)

ALUS Peel Pilot receives grant from Coca-Cola to support watershed health across Canada

By Resources

Peel Region and its partners have received a grant from The Coca-Cola Company in Canada to support initiatives that protect key watersheds, including the Credit and Humber Rivers.

This funding will be implemented through the ALUS Peel Pilot, which assists farmers in Peel in voluntarily addressing environmental opportunities to protect habitat, soil, and water quality through community-led, nature-based solutions.  Through projects such as tree planting, wetland restoration, soil erosion control, and livestock fencing, the ALUS Peel Pilot program strengthens farm sustainability while providing critical ecosystem services, including flood mitigation and carbon capture.

The grant will help provide annual payments to Peel farmers who undertake an ALUS Peel Pilot project, recognizing their voluntary stewardship efforts and the retirement of sensitive agricultural lands.

Since 2004, farmers in Peel have implemented over $4.7 million worth of environmental farm projects in collaboration with Peel Region, Credit Valley Conservation (CVC), and Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (TRCA) through the Peel Rural Water Quality Program. The ALUS Peel Pilot expands this legacy by introducing the ALUS model to further increase resources available for long-term environmental stewardship projects.

ALUS Canada, a charitable organization that helps farmers and ranchers develop nature-based solutions on their land, has been selected by The Coca Cola Company in Canada to receive a $162,500 grant to strengthen watershed health initiatives in communities where the company operates. In addition to Peel, the funding will support ALUS programs in Rocky View, Alberta, and Laurentides, Quebec, helping implement long-term environmental projects that improve water quality, build climate resilience, and enhance biodiversity.

Quotations

“Addressing climate change requires collective effort. Working in partnership with organizations that share our vision helps us advance initiatives that support environmental stewardship and promote long-term sustainability. Together, we aim to make a significant contribution to the future of our planet.”   

Kealy Dedman, Commissioner of Public Works, Peel Region

Disaster Recovery Assistance for Ontarians (DRAO) Program announced for Little Etobicoke Creek area

By Announcement, Issues, Resources, Ward 1

DRAO Announcement

On November 29th, 2024, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing announced that the Disaster Recovery Assistance for Ontarians (DRAO) program has been activated for the Little Etobicoke Creek area in response to the July 16th and August 17th and 18th localized flooding events.

Councillor Dasko was instrumental in having the Provincial officials connect with local residents in Ward 1 for inspections, to ensure that a full understanding of the magnitude of the issues in the area were understood.  The result of which is that the area has been recognized and included in the program.

Applications for the program will be accepted until the deadline of Monday, March 31, 2025. Homeowners and residential tenants, small owner-operated businesses, and not-for-profit organizations may apply for assistance if they reside in the activation area.

Program guidelines, activation area maps, information sheets, and application forms can be found on the DRAO website.

DRAO is a program that can help with the recovery of costs after a natural disaster. Financial help from the program is limited to $250,000 per application, is subject to a $500 deductible (which may be waived for low-income households), and reimburses up to 90% of your total eligible costs with limits for emergency expenses, household appliances, and furnishings.

The DRAO program does not cover all costs. Eligible applicants may receive assistance for emergency expenses and for repair or replacement of essential property if they do not have insurance—or if their insurance is insufficient—to cover their essential costs according to the DRAO program guidelines. Damage due to sewer-backup is not eligible under the program. An exception is made for low-income households as defined by the guidelines. See details online.

In addition, eligible basement repairs are only allowed to the extent they are returned to a basic and safe state (e.g., stud walls and repairs to essential appliances such as furnaces and hot water heaters). Repairs to furnished basements are ineligible unless there is damage to an essential living space. See details online.

DRAO is a provincial program, and is not related to the various programs and initiatives that the City of Mississauga has undertaken related to localized flooding and flood recovery. Residents who do not reside in the DRAO activation area are still eligible for the other City programs and initiatives.

If you have any questions about the DRAO program, you may contact the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing program staff at: DisasterAssistance@Ontario.ca.

Important facts about stormwater

There are more than 51,000 storm drains in Mississauga, 1,900 km of storm sewer pipes, 270 km of ditches, 150 km of creeks, and 80 stormwater management facilities.

Valued at more than $7 billion, Mississauga’s stormwater drainage system requires constant care. Staff continue to assess and prioritize the most effective improvements to this aging infrastructure. Installing stormwater infrastructure requires a large investment up front, and it is expensive, but important to maintain.

Rebate programs

In February 2025, the City will be launching two additional rebate programs:

  • Basement Flooding Prevention Rebate Program will provide rebates up to $6,800 for eligible flood prevention improvements.
  • Flood Resilience Rebate Program will provide rebates of 50 per cent of the invoiced cost up to a maximum of $3,000 to cover costs associated with eligible measures taken to make improvements to your home to minimize flooding impact.

Other subsidies

Region of Peel Sanitary Backwater Valve Rebate (Current): The Region provides a $1,500 rebate for eligible homeowners to cover the cost of installing a sanitary backwater valve to reduce basement flooding due to sanitary back-ups of wastewater from the sanitary sewer. For more information, visit peelregion.ca.
