Mississauga’s vision for growth outlined in the proposed new Official Plan

Residents are encouraged to join a virtual meeting on Jan. 23 to learn more about the City’s proposed new Official Plan.

Mississauga is growing, and we’re finalizing our proposed new Official Plan to help guide the City’s growth to the year 2051. This important plan covers everything from housing and transportation to the environment and the economy.

Public input from earlier consultations has helped shape the latest version of the proposed new Official Plan, helping determine the best places for housing, services, and amenities. The proposed plan now includes more housing options, a vision for complete communities with better walking, cycling and transit networks, support for local businesses and job growth, stronger environmental protections, and a focus on culture, heritage, and inclusion. It also aligns with recent provincial planning changes.

To share these updates, the City is hosting a virtual public meeting on January 23 from 6:00-7:30 PM. Residents are encouraged to join to learn how the proposed plan will shape the City’s future and see what’s next for Mississauga.
