SCHEDULED WATER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION NOTICE – 104 Eaglewood Blvd. – Monday, February 24th, 9:00am to 5:00pm

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 Monday, February 24th, 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)

CONSTRUCTION WORK STARTING IN YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD Sanitary Sewer Relining Project 23-2300E1 Mississauga: Byngmount Ave, Campobello Rd, Curzon Ave, Michaud Ave, Montbeck Cres, Omeath Crt and Wharton Glen Ave

By Resources, Ward 1

Peel Region will be working in your neighbourhood to rehabilitate the existing sanitary sewer system on Byngmount Ave, Campobello Rd, Curzon Ave, Michaud Ave, Montbeck Cres, Omeath Crt and Wharton Glen Ave. Sanitary sewers are underground pipes that carry wastewater from your home or business to a water resource recovery facility. Wastewater is created when water is flushed down the toilet, or goes down the drain in your sink, tub, or shower.

To extend the service life of the sewer under your street, Peel Region’s contractors will clean the existing sewer pipe and place a new resin (plastic) lining within it. This work will be completed underground with specialized equipment and will not require digging trenches in your community.

Construction schedule
We expect to conduct this work in your neighborhood between February 20 – March 31, 2025.

Contractor and working hours
The work will be completed by Capital Sewers Services Inc., supported by Andrews Engineer under contract to Peel Region. This contractor’s normal working hours are from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Friday. These hours are consistent with the local municipality’s bylaws. We understand this may cause some inconvenience, but shorter working days would require this work to affect your community over a longer period of time.

Wastewater service interruptions
To complete this work, your wastewater service pipe will be out of service (plugged) for approximately 8- 10 hours. (Wastewater service pipes carry wastewater from your home or business to the underground sanitary sewer system.) This temporary service interruption allows for the pipe to be repaired without digging up the street. To advise you of the exact date and time of this service interruption, Capital Sewers Services Inc will provide you with a second notice at least 24 hours before the lining process begins.

It is important to minimize your water use while the sewer work is underway:
• You may continue to wash your hands but minimize your water use.
• Do not use showers, bathtubs, dishwashers, or your washing machine.
• Keep toilet flushing to a bare minimum.

These actions will reduce the possibility of wastewater (also known as sewage) backing up into your basement or into your plumbing. If you have a sump pump, please notify us at construction@peelregion.ca or tell the contractor when they arrive at your property.

Odours
You may smell some odours while the synthetic resin inside the sewer cures. These odours are temporary and will dissipate within a few hours. You can prevent or minimize these odours by making sure you have water in all of your drains, including your basement floor drain. We recommend pouring a bucket of water down the floor drain and running the water in all sinks, showers, and tubs for a minute, either the evening before or day of the relining work. If you are not able to put water down your floor drain (for example, if it is currently covered by flooring), we strongly recommend making it accessible before relining work begins to reduce the level of odours in your home or business.

Traffic and parking
This work will be phased to minimize disruption to traffic. At least one lane will be open in each direction during this work. On-street parking will be reduced when we are actively working on your street. Residents will have access to their homes. Access to businesses will be maintained.

Sign up for email notices
Receive timely project updates right to your inbox by signing up for e-notices. Visit peelregion.ca/construction/signup to start signing up.

Safety during construction
Construction zones require extra caution to keep everyone safe – pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and construction workers. When driving, walking, or biking through the construction area, please be aware of your surroundings, watch for construction crews and other road users, slow down, account for delays, and consider other routes if possible. To learn more about how to stay safe in construction zones, visit peelregion.ca/workzonesafety

Information on this project can also be found at peelregion.ca/construction/project-23-2300E1

Thank you for your patience as we complete this necessary work. This work will allow us to continue providing you with high quality wastewater services.

Unlocking Mississauga’s past this Heritage Week

By Events, Resources

Showcasing heritage across Ontario from February 17 to 23, 2025

February 19, 2025

This week marks Heritage Week – a time to celebrate and showcase heritage in all its forms, including its influence on diverse traditions and cultural expressions across our city and province.

Throughout the week and beyond, the City of Mississauga invites the community to learn and reflect on how heritage is conserved, promoted and commemorated within our City, and how current programming helps to preserve our past and shape the future.

Heritage in Mississauga

Mississauga is dedicated to conserving the history of our city and takes pride in the past. Home to more than 500 designated heritage properties city-wide, these unique places are located in three Heritage Conservation Districts: Port Credit, Meadowvale and Streetsville – nestled between houses and buildings across various neighbourhoods, each telling the stories of our city’s past.

Additionally, Mississauga has more than 600 registered archaeological sites, some of which date back 10,000 years ago and our Museums are home to 25,000 unique artifacts.

Heritage properties

Built resources, such as historic houses, bridges, conservation districts, cultural heritage landscapes and archaeological resources, are considered to be heritage properties. The Ontario Heritage Act defines how a heritage property is identified, designated, protected and conserved. When heritage approval is required for any property alterations within Mississauga, important steps are required in order to preserve the property’s historical landscape. Learn how to apply and what funding is available.

Designated Heritage Property Grant

Own or recently purchased a heritage property? Owners can apply for funding to support the conservation, repair or restoration of a designated heritage property. Projects must show how they are using best practices to protect and conserve the heritage property. Learn more 

Take part in Heritage Week programming

SCHEDULED WATER SUPPLY TEST SHUTDOWN – 172 Angelene St – Tuesday, February 18th, from 12:00pm to 02:00pm

By Resources, Ward 1

The Region of Peel 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 work on the system or conduct tests.

On Tuesday, February 18th, from 12:00pm to 02:00pm, please expect a brief water outage and loss of water pressure while we work in your area.  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 test shutdown

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)

Applications for two City of Mississauga flood prevention rebates now open

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

Councillor Dasko is happy to share another update, as promised.

Both rebates provide financial support to Mississauga residents who install water-resistant materials or other flood prevention measures within their home or on their property.

February 12, 2025

Today, the City launched two flood prevention rebates to help residents offset the cost of installing measures to limit flooding in and around their homes. These two programs offer up to a total of $10,500 in financial support for eligible Mississauga homeowners.

City rebate programs

The City has launched two rebate programs to help offset the cost of upgrades for Mississauga homeowners.

  • Flood Resilience Rebate: is a City rebate program created to help those who had flood damage and installed eligible water resilient materials and other measures to make their homes more resistant to future flooding. The rebate pays for up to 50 per cent of the cost of these materials, labour and tax, up to a maximum of $3,000.
  • Basement Flooding Prevention Rebate: is a City rebate program created to replace the Foundation Drain Collector Sump Pump Subsidy. This new city-wide rebate program offers up to $7,500 to pay for eligible basement flood prevention measures, such as a sump pump or downspout disconnection.

Apply for the Flood Resilience Rebate

To be eligible, you must be a registered owner of a detached home, semi-detached home, duplex or townhouse within Mississauga. To provide proof of ownership, you must provide a copy of your City tax bill. The name on the application must match the registered owner listed on the tax bill. You must have experienced flood damage on or after the July 8, 2013, storm event. Only one registered owner per residential address is eligible to receive a rebate.

Residents must complete a rebate application and submit it with a copy of their City tax bill and proof of eligibility, including:

  • Proof of flooding: such as an insurance claim or photos of flooding in the residential dwelling.
  • Proof of eligible work: such as receipts for purchased materials.
  • Proof of payment: such as paid invoices from a contractor for completed work.

You can submit your application and supporting documentation online or by mail.

Applications will be accepted until December 31, 2025.

Apply for the Basement Flooding Prevention Rebate

To be eligible, you must be a registered owner of a detached home, semi-detached home, duplex or townhouse within Mississauga. To provide proof of ownership, you must provide a copy of your City tax bill. The name on the application must match the registered owner listed on the tax bill. All measures must be installed by a professional with a valid City of Mississauga business license.

Residents must complete a rebate application and submit it with a copy of their City tax bill and proof of eligibility, including:

  • Proof of eligible work: such as quotes for work to be completed.
  • Proof of payment: such as paid invoices from a contractor for completed work.

Retroactive applications for measures installed after July 16, 2024, prior to launch of the program, will be accepted until August 1, 2025.

New applications can be made for measures installed on February 12, 2025 and after. This type of application has two stages, pre-approval and final approval. For further information, please visit the rebate program webpage.

You can submit your application and supporting documentation online or by mail.

This is an ongoing program that is subject to Council approval.

Imagine Mississauga: Your voice, our shared future

By Announcement, Food for thought, Issues, Parks, Planning & Development, Resources

February 11, 2025

The City of Mississauga is calling on residents to help shape Council’s new Strategic Plan, a forward-thinking document that will guide growth, address key challenges, and chart a path toward a vibrant and resilient future. From housing, environment and economic development to transportation, infrastructure, and arts and culture, the public’s insights will play a crucial role in imagining the Mississauga we all aspire to live in. By participating in City planning, the community is crafting a legacy that will guide Mississauga’s development for generations, shaping the future through public input today.

Public engagement and education activities

The City is launching a new public engagement campaign to seek the public’s ideas and input on eight key priorities identified by City Council. Residents can share their feedback through these activities:

  • Visit mississauga.ca/imagine to learn more about the project and complete a survey to share your ideas and contribute to the fabric of Mississauga’s future.
  • Engage with our City Ambassadors to share your opinions at various events, community centres, arenas and museums in your neighbourhood.
  • Speakers event (spring): Be inspired by leading experts in equity, diversity, inclusion, climate action and urban mobility at this free special event (registration in advance will be required).

Imagine Mississauga guided by your vision

Imagine Mississauga is about creating a collective vision that reflects the hopes, needs, and aspirations of every resident. This visionary blueprint will steer our city’s growth, resource allocation, and response to both present challenges and future opportunities. It’s a commitment to creating a Mississauga that resonates with all who call this municipality home.

Key themes for the Strategic Plan

As we imagine the next chapter of Mississauga’s story, the City is focusing on eight central themes and will be engaging with residents on the following:

  1. Reimagining mobility: Envisioning innovative transportation solutions to reduce congestion and enhance connectivity.

SCHEDULED WATER SUPPLY INTERRUPTION NOTICE – Wednesday, February 12th, 9:30am to 5:00pm – Wednesday, February 12th, 9:30am to 5:00pm

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 Wednesday, February 12th, 9:30am 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)

If you have any questions, please contact us.
