Peel Regional Police is rolling out CIRT in Ward 1 July 1st

By Announcement, Resources, Ward 1

The Community Incident Response Team (CIRT) was established in May of 2022 in 22 Division. CIRT provides a modernization of traditional frontline foot and bicycle patrol in an effort to increase public engagement and have a visible police presence in communities.

Our initial roll out will consist of 3 Sergeants and 12 Constables, which will expand over the next 6 months to a full compliment of 24 Constables. As a result of the successes of the CIRT program, a decision to expand to 11, 12 and 21 Divisions was found to be beneficial. Once all 4 Divisions are up and running, the total compliment will be 16 Sergeants and 96 Constables for the organization.

The primary objective of the CIRT program is to alleviate the workload on front-line personnel and address specific enforcement needs in local communities. CIRT aligns with our organizations strategic plan by delivering both targeted law enforcement as well as utilizing alternative methods through the Community Safety and Well-Being framework. Utilizing a CIRT approach allows officers to identify problem areas, establish and maintain relationships with community stakeholders, businesses and residents while providing essential resources and access to services for repeat offenders and individuals in vulnerable situations.

For additional information, please see Chief Nishan Duraiappah’s video news release.

The zamboni hut in Port Credit Memorial Park has a new look!

By Announcement, Parks, Stephen’s Initiatives, Ward 1

When I had the refridgerated skating trail built I did not like the look of the zamboni hut.

I asked our Culture Department and the Mississauga Arts Council (MAC) for something to commemorate Mississauga’s 50th and to showcase Port Credit, Paint the Town Red and the Southside Shuffle with some notable people.

The result is below from two very talented local artists, Shorty and Gothboi (Shalue and Adam, Saugacity.comic)

Included in the murals are Johnny Bozzo, Chuck Jackson, Diane Goldsmith, Ric Cooper, and Kristine Kane.

SCHEDULED WATER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION NOTICE – 2303 Stanfield Rd – Friday, July 5th, 3:00am to 7:00am

By Resources, Ward 1

INTERRUPTION DETAILS

Date and Time: Friday, July 5th, 3:00am to 7:00am

Location:  2303 Stanfield Rd                           

Addresses Affected: Queensway E: 1185, 1195, 1215, 1225, 1235                                

Project #:  C- 474290

Regional Inspector: Phemelo Mpoloka

Telephone #               437-220-8917

905-791-7800 ext. 3246/3247

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 Friday, July 5th, from 3:00am to 7:00am. 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)

If you have any questions, please contact us.

Learn to Fish – Mississauga – Lakefront Promenade and Lake Aquitaine

By Announcement, Events, Parks, Ward 1

Free Learn to Fish Program 2024

Last year, City of Mississauga Parks staff worked with the MNRF to deliver their Learn to Fish program in an urban centre.  They had 10 pop-up sessions between Lake Aquitaine and Lakefront Promenade throughout Summer 2023.  These sessions had 219 participants in total with an equal split between children and adults.  The participation was higher than anticipated and MNRF was not expecting such a high percentage of adults.

As a result of the success of these 10 sessions, staff have been working with MNRF to bring the Learn to Fish program to Mississauga on a more regular basis.  We are happy to announce that the program will be at Lakefront Promenade and Lake Aquitaine starting this weekend to the end of August all summer long.

The Learn to Fish program is a free program that teaches new anglers of all ages how to fish in Ontario. This fun and engaging 2–hour program combines a 1-hour practical teaching session with one hour of supervised hands-on fishing.

Sign up with your group by reaching out to Leah Silverman at parks.communitydevelopment@mississauga.ca. To sign up individually online: Learn to Fish | ontario.ca

Dates available from mid-June to the end of August at Lake Aquitaine or Lakefront Promenade.
