Building More Homes: City Looks at New Housing Options in Neighbourhoods

By Events, Issues, Planning & Development, Ward 1

On Monday, April 17, staff will provide an update on the City’s ongoing efforts to expand low-rise housing options in Mississauga.

During the update, staff will review the current status and future directions of the Increasing Housing Choices in Neighbourhoods study which is looking at ways to allow more gentle density across the city. The City is looking at how best to permit more housing types such as semi-detached homes, townhouses, duplexes, triplexes and multiplexes in Mississauga neighbourhoods. Garden suites, laneway housing and garage conversions are also being reviewed as part of the study.

Adding gentle density in residential neighbourhoods could provide more housing options for families, older adults, students and Mississauga’s workforce. It is a key action of Growing Mississauga, the City’s recently released action plan on new housing.

Final recommendations including draft Official Plan policies and zoning regulations will be brought forward later this year as part of the City’s Official Plan Review.

What:

Update on Increasing Housing Choices in Neighbourhoods Study to Planning and Development Committee

When:

Planning and Development Committee
April 17, 2023 at 6 p.m.

Who:

  • Mississauga residents
  • Business and property owners
  • Housing advocates
  • Building and development industry
  • Interested stakeholders

How to Participate:

You may watch the live stream on the City’s website (without registering).

Advance registration is required to participate and/or make a comment virtually  during the meeting. Advance registration is preferred to participate and/or make a comment in person. Please email deputations.presentations@mississauga.ca or call 905-615-3200 ext. 5423 no later than Friday, April 14, 2023. Directions on how to participate will be provided.

Background

The City’s Increasing Housing Choices in Neighbourhoods (IHCN) Study supports changes to the Planning Act, which requires municipalities to permit up to two additional residential units on lots with a single detached, semi-detached or row house. It will also ensure City policies are aligned with the Provincial Policy Statement, 2020, which encourages municipalities to permit a range and mix of housing types such as garden suites and triplexes, and arrangements such as co-ownership and home sharing.

In addition to being a key action of the City’s new housing plan, Growing Mississauga, the IHCN study also moves forward key recommendations from the City’s affordable housing strategy – Making Room for the Middle. The strategy, which was approved by Council in 2017, concluded that the range of housing for middle income earners – such as teachers, nurses and social workers – is dwindling. It supports finding ways to remove barriers to affordable housing and providing residents with more housing choices as they go through different life stages.

Housing affordability is a major issue in Mississauga and the wider GTA. Providing greater housing choices and protecting as well as encouraging new affordable housing supply are priorities for the City.

April 7, 2023

Dear Resident,

Re: Ward 1 – Community Engagement Virtual Meeting 

850-1083 Rangeview Road and 830-1076 Lakeshore Road East (south side)

 

The City of Mississauga has received the submission of a Development Master Plan from Rangeview Landowners Group Inc. for the redevelopment of the Rangeview employment area.  Rangeview is located south of Lakeshore Road between East Avenue and Hydro Road in the Lakeview Community.  Rangeview Landowners Group Inc. owns 21 properties with Rangeview, representing 65% of the private landholdings in the area.

The Development Master Plan represents an overarching guiding document on how the lands should be developed.  In order to implement their plans, the applicant will need to also amend the Official Plan and rezone the property at a future date.

The Community Engagement virtual meeting I am hosting is being held to provide residents with more information and to have a discussion on the proposed development.

I have arranged a virtual Community Engagement meeting on Thursday, April 27, 2023 from 6:30 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. If you wish to attend and participate in the discussions, please  find the webex call in details below:

Bringing the Lakeview Innovation District to Life

By Events, Planning & Development, Uncategorized, Ward 1

The City of Mississauga is seeking input on an incentive program that will help transform a former industrial area along the waterfront into a 20-acre innovation campus. The Lakeview Innovation District, part of the 177-acre Lakeview Village development, will become an employment hub where people can research, test and develop solutions in state-of-the-art offices, flex-offices and lab spaces.

The City is currently working on developing a Community Improvement Plan (CIP) to help bring the Innovation District to life. It could include incentives to encourage uses such as:

  • clean technology, including low carbon technology
  • life sciences, and
  • information and communications technology

Public and industry input is required to help define the types of incentives – both financial and non-financial – to help attract these uses.

“Waterfront redevelopments like Lakeview provide a unique, generational opportunity to foster innovation and spur economic growth and leading-edge technology,” said Christina Kakaflikas, Director, Mississauga Economic Development Office. “Mississauga is the second-largest employment hub in the Greater Toronto Area and the second-largest economy in Ontario. The Lakeview Innovation District will solidify our position as a major economic hub by creating thousands of highly skilled jobs in the key sectors we’re invested in growing on our waterfront.”

The City has launched a survey to take input on possible incentives including:
