Water Interruption Notice -T-19001Ma, Lakeview Village, Mississauga, Thursday December 19

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 Thursday December 19th, from 9:00am to 1:00pm. 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)

Ontario proposes legislation regarding Peel’s Provincial Efficiencies Review

By Announcement

Yesterday, the Province introduced the Peel Transition Implementation Act, 2024 which, if passed, would transfer the delivery of certain public works services from Peel Region to Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon. This legislation will be considered further when the House resumes in March according to the Minister. This announcement is related to Bill 185, the Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act and the Provincial Efficiencies Review.

Key Points from the announcement:

  • The proposed changes include transferring jurisdiction and responsibility for the following services, effective July 1, 2026, or as determined by the Minister:
    • Regional roads and associated stormwater infrastructure, including ownership and maintenance responsibilities, from the Region of Peel to Mississauga, Brampton, and Caledon.
    • Waste collection services and two community recycling centres located in Mississauga from Peel Region to the City of Mississauga.
  • The government is continuing to explore potential options for the transfer of water/wastewater services from Peel Region noting that any future outcome would maintain public ownership.
  • To support Peel Region and the municipalities through this transition, Ontario’s Provincial Land and Development Facilitator (PLDF) advisory agency will work with the municipalities to facilitate the process for service transfers.

While Peel Region recognizes the importance of this announcement in shaping the future of the region, we are still in the process of reviewing the full implications.

Peel Region is dedicated to keeping its partners informed throughout this process. Updates will be shared as more information becomes available, ensuring transparency and engagement with all those affected.

Quotations

“As we navigate through the legislative implications of this announcement, our focus remains steadfast: ensuring that the changes strengthen our community and align with the values and priorities of Peel’s residents and businesses.”

Nando Iannicca, Peel Regional Chair and CEO

“We are committed to working closely with the Province and other partners to fully understand and implement these changes in a way that minimizes disruption and continues to prioritize the needs of our community.”

Gary Kent, Chief Administrative Officer

City of Mississauga ready to assume key Region of Peel services

By Announcement, Resources

Government of Ontario announces changes about streamlining of regional services

December 12, 2024

Today, the Government of Ontario announced that key regional services in Peel Region will be transferred to the City of Mississauga. Starting July 1, 2026, the City will assume responsibility for the following services within Mississauga:

  • Solid waste collection, including responsibility for the two Community Recycling Centres located in Mississauga
  • Regional roads and associated stormwater infrastructure

This comes as the Ontario government seeks to empower to streamline municipal operations and improve service delivery, and build more housing.

Solid waste collection

Mississauga will now handle solid waste collection and two community recycling centres (Battleford Community Recycling Centre, 2255 Battleford Rd., Mississauga and Fewster Community Recycling Centre, 1126 Fewster Dr., Mississauga), which include disposal for recyclable and reusable items, household hazardous waste, and other waste products.

Roads

The City of Mississauga currently maintains 5,700 kilometres of roads. With the transition of Regional roads, the City will now maintain all roads within its boundaries. This change will create clarity for residents and streamline the maintenance of these roadways, saving taxpayers money.

Planning

With oversight of land-use planning, Mississauga will now make its own decisions about how land is used. This means Ontario’s third largest municipality can better plan for its growth and development to fit local needs. This change is already in effect as of July 1, 2024.

The City is committed to ensuring a seamless transfer of these critical services from Peel Region. Residents and businesses will receive detailed information in the coming months about how these changes will affect their daily lives, with regular updates provided throughout the transition period.

“Mississauga is ready. The transfer of these essential services to the municipal level is a significant step forward for Mississauga allowing us to oversee our own budgets and our own services. As a City, we can now manage these services alongside other areas of our business streamlining operations. While I welcome these new services, there is still a lot of discussions to take place, working through the operational and budgetary aspects that come with adding these new services.” – Mississauga Mayor Carolyn Parrish

“These changes are significant for Mississauga, enabling us to better serve our growing population through increased control over essential services. Our commitment is to maintain high-quality services for both residents and businesses. Our objective is to limit any disruptions in these services as we transition responsibilities from the Region to the City.” – Geoff Wright, City Manager and Chief Administrative Officer

Revised Completion Date Notice for Southcreek Road and Etobicoke Valley Dog Park – late Spring 2025 to early Summer 2025

By Announcement, Planning & Development

PROJECT UPDATE – REVISED COMPLETION DATE

East Trunk Offline Storage Facility

Southcreek Road and Etobicoke Valley Dog Park

Peel Region has been working in your area to install a new sanitary trunk sewer offline storage facility,
and properly retire an existing sanitary trunk sewer. Sanitary sewers are underground pipes that carry
wastewater from your home or business to a water resource recovery facility. Wastewater is created
when water goes down the drain or is flushed down the toilet.

To respond to climate change and meet the demands of a growing population, we are constructing an
underground facility that will store wastewater during large rain events. (For more information, see
peelregion.ca/public-works/environmental-assessments/mississauga/east-trunk-ss-offline-storagefacility.asp for the Environmental Assessment.)

Construction schedule

Restoration of the park is almost complete. However, due to the significant rainfall events that occurred in July and August, the project end date has been further delayed. We anticipate that the park will be open in late Spring 2025 to early Summer 2025. This will ensure that all landscaping and grassed areas are fully restored before opening the park to the public. All efforts will be made to open the Dog Park at the earliest opportunity. All work is under warranty for two years from the completion date.

Contractor and working hours

The work is being completed by EBC Inc. and supported by Arcadis, both 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. To complete the work on time, there may be times when work will be completed later into the evening or on Saturdays. We understand this may cause some inconvenience, but shorter working days would require your neighbourhood to be under construction for a longer period of time. We will attempt to minimize overnight work whenever possible.

Closure of Etobicoke Valley Dog Park and associated trails

To keep pedestrians and their pets safe, the Etobicoke Valley Dog Park and the trails leading to the dog
park will continue to be closed until all work is completed in late Spring 2025 to early Summer 2025. Trail closure signs are posted on site. Alternate dog park locations can be found by visiting
mississauga.ca/events-and-attractions/parks/find-a-park/ Once all work is completed and the dog park is reopened, we will notify residents through an advertisement in the local newspaper and by distributing notices to the surrounding area.

Traffic and parking

We will work to manage traffic in the area for the safety of workers, road users and residents.
• Temporary lane restrictions may be required on Dundas Street East near the active construction area to
complete the work safely. As a result, road users may experience delays on Dundas Street East.
• The south portion of Southcreek Road will remain closed to traffic, as well as the Etobicoke Valley Dog
Park’s parking lot. Access to businesses will be maintained.
• There will be no on-street parking on Southcreek Road during construction.
• Access for emergency vehicles will be maintained at all times.

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/construction/workzonesafety

Project funding The Investing in Canada Infrastructure Program (ICIP) is a cost-shared infrastructure funding program between the Federal and Provincial governments and has committed $8 million of combined funding toward this Peel Region project.
