Mississauga Official Plan Review Meetings to Discuss Housing,Growth,Transportation and Environment

June 1, 2021

The City is hosting three virtual community meetings to discuss key directions of Mississauga’s Official Plan Review. Housing, growth, transportation and the environment will be the focus in this phase of public engagement.

Mississauga is reviewing its current Official Plan, which guides growth, to ensure it reflects the changing needs, opportunities and aspirations of the city. Since launching the Official Plan Review in June 2019, the City has conducted ongoing public consultation. Having reviewed the community feedback to date, this current phase of engagement focuses on confirming policy directions for environment, transportation and growth. Engagement for housing options will explore ideas from the community.

Tuesday, June 15, 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.

Background:

The City’s Official Plan policies address important parts of city-building that affect how the city grows, including transportation, housing, culture and heritage, the environment and the economy.

The Official Plan addresses:

where housing, industry, offices, shops and roads should go
which services and amenities (e.g., parks, schools, transit) are needed and where they will be located
what parts of the city will be the focus for growth and what it will look like e.g., heights and densities
ways to enhance economic development and job growth

The City launched the Official Plan Review at a Special Council meeting held on June 10, 2019. For more information and to sign up for email updates, visit the public engagement page.

Funding for the Lakeshore Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)

January 21, 2021 – The City of Mississauga had drafted the Lakeshore Connecting Communities Plan to improve and increase mobility across our Lakeshore corridor. This funding announcement for the Lakeshore corridor is for the construction of a New Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Corridor along Lakeshore Road in Mississauga that includes three stations. The construction is for a dedicated two-way bus rapid transit corridor on Lakeshore Road East and Deta Road, as well as separated bike lanes and sidewalks. It will help support the growth outlined in the City’s Official Plan and Local Area Plan. The Bus Rapid Transit component from East Avenue to Deta Road was submitted for consideration to the Federal and Provincial Governments as a part of the Investing in Canada Infrastructure Plan (ICIP).

As the Ward 1 Councillor for this project, Stephen Dasko applauds the decision to invest in this much needed infrastructure. Councillor Dasko stressed the need for the Province to align its growth policies in order that the higher order transit is done acknowledging the Lakeshore’s overall limitations and its close proximity to Lake Ontario.

“This is welcome news for the community. To have funding partners that will help build transit, ensure improved safety and mobility with separated bike lanes and sidewalks is deeply appreciated. However, much more work is required to ensure that this funding fits in to a larger plan for Lakeshore that embraces that feel of a village and open space along the corridor,” said Dasko

The continued work on the Lakeshore corridor and efforts by the local community, Mayor Bonnie Crombie, City Manager Paul Mitcham, City Staff, and our Federal and Provincial partners is essential to having a community that will make our City an outstanding place to live and work
