Please be advised that works will be commencing mid next-weeks for the ‘new’ trail connecting to Breezy Brae Drive.
With this work we will also include a trail connection to the tennis courts from the existing trail.
Works on this site are forecasted to take up to 3 weeks. The park/playground area can remain open, however signage and caution tape will be in place separating the work area from the playground.
The Peel Region Public Works department regularly maintains and repairs the sanitary sewer pipes and maintenance holes in your area. Sometimes we must turn off your water supply while we do this work.
Your water will be turned off at 1680 Mattawa Ave on Thursday Aug 8th from 7 p.m. to Friday August 9th to 2 a.m. and on 1580, 1590, and 1650 Dundas Street East on Friday August 9th from 2 a.m. to 7 a.m. 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:
• Notify all residents/tenants in the building of the upcoming water interruption. A poster is included for posting in highly visible areas (lobbies, mailrooms, and/or elevators) or photocopying for each unit.
• 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)

The City is reviewing its by-laws and seeking resident feedback on playing sports and using sports equipment on local roads in Mississauga.
Currently, playing sports and using sports equipment on local roads is enforced on a complaint basis and issues are resolved through education.
Until Tuesday, August 6, Mississauga residents are invited to share their feedback on playing sports on streets using the online survey.
The survey will help the City understand what sports are currently played on streets, how often sports are played on streets, and if residents have any feedback or concerns. Responses will inform recommendations for potential changes to the by-laws, including:
For more information and to complete the survey, visit mississauga.ca/street-sports.
The plan includes grants for homeowners and developers who want to build affordable units.
July 31, 2024
The aim of the CIP is to help quickly increase Mississauga’s supply of:
The CIP will be implemented as a grant program. Applications will be accepted starting this fall through 2027 or until the program funding is fully allocated.
Market rents in Mississauga far exceed affordable rent levels for even moderate-income renters. Renter households require a yearly gross income of almost $100,000 to afford a one-bedroom apartment in the city. The City’s CIP will help developers, landowners and homeowners offset some of the costs required to deliver new units at affordable rates.
Mississauga’s CIP was developed in consultation with industry stakeholders whose input was instrumental in helping to shape the program. It is designed to work in tandem with funding sources from other levels of government for new market rental and affordable rental construction. Staff expect that the program will deliver over 300 new affordable rental and gentle density units over three years.
The CIP also sets the stage for two innovative housing solutions that could help to encourage more affordable rental units:
The CIP will be funded, in part, through funds received from the federal Housing Accelerator Fund. In December 2023, the Government of Canada and the City of Mississauga announced a $112.9 million agreement to help deliver more homes and improve affordability.
More information about the CIP is available on the City’s website.
A CIP is a tool under the Ontario Planning Act that allows municipalities to provide incentives such as grants and loans to help encourage development.
The focus of this CIP is to increase the supply of rental units affordable for moderate-income renter households earning $54,000 to $96,000 in household income. The CIP is not designed to deliver low-income units. Homes for low-income households are built and operated by the Region of Peel, the City’s municipal housing service manager.
The Affordable Rental Housing CIP is a key action under Growing Mississauga: An Action Plan for New Housing. The action plan identifies steps the City can take to get more homes built, streamline building approvals and make homes more affordable.
I am committed to finding ways to get more rental housing built in Mississauga. It’s a key area of focus for our Council, City staff and my Housing Task Force. We must use every tool we have to get more homes built. I encourage every homeowner and developer who wants to build affordable rental units in Mississauga to come forward and take advantage of this incentive program. The time to get building is now! – Mississauga Mayor Carolyn Parrish
This past December, our government reached an agreement with the City of Mississauga to provide nearly $113 million to fast track the construction of more than 35,200 homes over the next decade and support programs for affordable housing in our community. The City of Mississauga has been a supportive partner in this important work, and our collaboration will continue to make housing more affordable for those who need it the most in our city. – The Honourable Rechie Valdez, Minister of Small Business, Member of Parliament for Mississauga-Streetsville
The availability of affordable rental housing is a critical issue in Mississauga and financial incentives are a powerful tool to help stimulate construction. As we developed this program, we listened carefully to our industry partners. To address their feedback, we increased the total amount of grants available per unit. We are hopeful that this will help mitigate some of the financial hurdles developers face when bringing affordable units to market. – Andrew Whittemore, Commissioner, Planning and Building
You’re invited to share your feedback on policies that will help guide the future redevelopment for the Dixie Outlet Mall site.
City staff have refined the draft policies and are seeking comments on the revised Official Plan Amendment. The policies address elements that are needed to create a mixed-use community: parks and natural spaces, transit and transportation options, community infrastructure, housing options, the height and density of new buildings and the amount of retail and commercial space.
Want to continue the conversation?
Community engagement has been an important part of the work to date. Interested in a refresh on the policies? Or do you have any additional thoughts or comments you would like to share with the team? Save the date for our virtual community meeting this fall.
