Employment Sites Review

Project background

The City of Mississauga, in partnership with the Region of Peel, is evaluating the appropriateness of converting three employment sites to allow for sensitive uses, including residential development.

Why this matters

Employment areas provide land for diverse employment uses to meet current and future needs. Certain types of employment use, including industrial operations, benefit from separation from residential use. These employment activities contribute significantly to the city's economic base.

At the same time, the province has found that it needs 1.5 million more homes over the next ten years, and there is pressure to build more homes in Mississauga.

Regional Council directed staff to evaluate these three sites to determine if residential uses would be appropriate.

At the moment, these three sites act as a buffer between heavy employment uses in the city's employment area and residential areas nearby.
