| MISSISSAUGA OFFICIAL PLAN |
| Mississauga Official Plan
will guide the city's growth and development to the year 2031. Its land use policy framework
will help to build the Mississauga envisioned in the City's Strategic
Plan. |
| The Plan's policies are
designed to manage and direct the next stage of the city's growth - redevelopment and
intensification. They will help the city adapt to the effects of growth on the social,
economic, cultural and natural environment. |
| The Official Plan,
required by the provincial Planning
Act, includes
important information for the public, land use planners, builders and developers. It provides
the basis for detailed land use designations and urban design policies, and sets the context
for the review and approval of development applications. |
| An
Executive
Summary for
Mississauga Official Plan provides an overview of the new Plan’s approach and key
features, including: |
| |
 |
A new
Urban
System comprised of three distinct, yet, inter-connected components - the Green System, City
Structure and Corridors; |
| |
|
A City
Structure based on a growth management strategy that identifies functional areas for density,
height and appropriate growth: Downtown, Major Nodes, Community Nodes, Corporate Centres,
Neighbourhoods, Employment Areas; and, Special Purpose Areas. These functional areas are
further organized into a series of Character
Areas;
and |
| |
|
Intensification
Areas where
growth will be directed. |

| Mississauga Official Plan is Partially In Effect |
| Mississauga Official Plan
was adopted by City Council on September 29, 2010 and partially approved by the Region of Peel
on September 22, 2011. However, the Plan was appealed in its entirety and as a result, the
existing Mississauga Plan (2003) remained in effect. The appeals were subsequently scoped and a
number of appeals were withdrawn. The remaining appeals were included with modifications in a
submission for decision to the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) in June 2012. |
| On November 14, 2012, the
OMB issued a Notice of
Decision for
the Mississauga Official Plan, approving the Plan and modifications
submitted in June 2012, with exception of the policies subject to the remaining
appeals. For the policies under appeal in Mississauga Official Plan, the relevant policies
in Mississauga Plan
(2003) will
remain in effect. |
A summary list of all
city wide and site specific appeals to Mississauga Official Plan and the relevant in effect
policies in Mississauga Plan (2003) are shown in a concordance
table and are
indicated in the body of the Plan as follows:
- policies that have been
appealed City-wide are noted with orange highlighting; and
- policies appealed that
are site specific are underlined in red.
|
|
Until all appeals are
resolved, both official plans will need to be referred to since they are both partially in
effect. Once all matters have been decided, Mississauga Plan (2003) will no longer
apply.
|
| Reference the Mississauga
Official Plan first when looking for current land use and policy applicable to a property.
Where there is an appeal to a policy section or specific policy, reference the Mississauga Plan
(2003) for the equivalent policy in effect. |
| Office
Consolidation |
|
The office consolidation
of the Mississauga Official Plan is updated to include Region of Peel and Ontario Municipal
Board (OMB) decisions and City Council approved Official Plan Amendments as of March 14, 2013.
Appeals to the Plan are indicated in the body of the Plan, as follows:
- policies that have been
appealed City-wide are noted with highlighting; and
- policies appealed that
are site specific are underlined in red.
The below office
consolidation is prepared for the purpose of convenience only. For accurate reference, the
original Plan as approved by the Region, Ontario Municipal Board decisions and amendments to
the Plan should be consulted.
