Tell Us What’s Important to You!

May 2026 - We’re preparing to hold our mid-year community meeting and we’d like to hear from you.  What issues keep you up at night?  Where are you seeking some specifics?  Who would you like to hear from?

In June 2026 (date TBA), we’re planning to engage our residents with speakers who have an expertise on the issues that are important to YOU.

Not sure?

We’ll get the ball rolling by suggesting these possible topics and speakers…

1)  An update on development in the area from Stephen Dasko.  What's happening with the former Planet Organic site, the Skinner & Middlebrook site, the No Frills site, infill challenges in neighbourhoods?

2)  An overview of issues impacting South Mississauga – e.g. the proposed Toronto Island Airport expansion and anticipated air traffic/noise/pollution crossing our skies and Waterfront.  What is happening with the Lakeshore BRT?  Will the Hurontario LRT ever be finished?

3)  A general construction industry recap from developer Frank Giannone.  Is construction starting to pick up yet?  When and how will we see that happening?  How is the new condo market going?  Are condos dead as a housing format?  What's next?

4)  The Marina lands and where it now stands with updates on next steps from Stephen Dasko and Rudy Cuzzetto.  The long-awaited Environmental Assessment is complete and we're now waiting for Provincial approval to start reimagining the site with Canada Lands who gave the City until 2027 to build the new Marina and confirm a Master Plan.  Are we close to meeting that deadline?

5)  Climate Resilience Strategy – an update on how infill development and flooding are being addressed at the City level and why we need to tackle this one locally, build by build e.g. 900 Lakeshore Road West in Clarkson.

6)  Mayor’s Affordable Housing Task Force – is it still intact and does it have teeth, with the Provincial mandates no longer requiring an affordable component in new builds?  Who pays to replace the development fees no longer paid by the builder?  Supportive municipal infrastructure still needs to be constructed.  Is incentivising development costing the taxpayers?

7)  Metrolinx is proposing oversize transit-oriented residential developments at GO Stations e.g. Clarkson.  Is Port Credit GO "done"?  The City has little control under Provincial directives and the Mississauga Official Plan is no shield.  Who can/will actually live there?  Again, is this the wrong format?  What is the future of such dense one-dimensional clusters?

8)  THE TOPIC OF YOUR CHOICE:  You tell us!  Share your thoughts and topic ideas at TOPCA.PC@outlook.com or leave comments on our socials:
