Media advisory

Public engagements open in July

Share your ideas and participate in public engagement opportunities happening throughout Mississauga.

City services | June 25, 2026

The City of Mississauga regularly connects with residents throughout the year to gather their ideas and constructive feedback. This helps guide City plans, programs, services and new developments.

Residents and businesses can take part in different ways. You can attend information sessions, open houses, workshops or complete online surveys. The City reviews this feedback along with other data and trends to help decide how to focus its time and resources on community priorities.

The City also shares a wide range of opportunities for community involvement. These include chances to apply for public art projects and grants, take part in exhibitions, join advisory committees and more.

In June, the City is highlighting a selection of engagement opportunities. To see all current projects and ways to share your feedback, visit yoursay.mississauga.ca.


City-wide opportunities

Tell us what you think about urban design in Mississauga – online survey

The City is undertaking a review of the Urban Design Program, which guides the way buildings, streets, parks and public spaces are designed and built. The review aims to improve the program so that it reflects the needs of those who live, work, plan and build in Mississauga.

As part of the first phase, we are holding an on-demand, virtual public engagement to understand what matters most to you. Participating is quick and easy and will help ensure new development fits well into our communities.

The engagement is open online, 24/7 until July 31, 2026. Visit mississauga.ca/urbandesign to learn more, watch a short video and complete a quick survey to tell us what you think.

Ward-specific opportunities

Ward 4 and Ward 7: Mississauga Valley Community Centre and Library and Cooksville Community Centre and Library Developments – online survey

Mississauga’s downtown community is growing fast and is expected to double in size by 2041. To support this growth, the City is planning two projects: redeveloping the Mississauga Valley Community Centre and Library and building a new community centre and library in Cooksville.

These new spaces will provide places for people to connect, learn and stay active, while supporting youth and older adults and offering a range of programs and services.

Residents are invited to complete an online survey by Friday, July 10. Feedback will help shape early design plans for the facilities. Residents can share what recreation and library amenities are most important to them and their household, as well as any priorities they would like the City to consider when designing these facilities.

Complete the survey by Friday, July 10 to help shape the future of these facilities.
