Phase 2 of the Conserving Heritage Landscapes Project is underway

We need your help to identify Mississauga places that are unique and valuable to you.

Get Involved

The City is updating its 2005 Cultural Heritage Landscape Inventory. Cultural heritage landscapes are *areas* of cultural heritage value or interest. The review includes:

  • Evaluating the 2005 inventory for landscapes to be included or removed
  • Determining if additional cultural heritage landscapes may be added to the inventory, and
  • Examining ways to effectively manage change within and around these landscapes

Your participation and input is critical in identifying what places are unique and valuable to you, and what makes these places important. Please share your memories, opinions, drawings, images and ideas about what makes any and all of these places important and special.

Archaeological Services Inc. (ASI), SGL Planning and Design Inc. landPlan and GBCA Architects are conducting the review.

Project Update

Thank-you for your interest in and input to the Conserving Heritage Landscapes Project. The conclusions will be presented at a virtual public meeting on Wednesday, October 13th at 6:30 p.m. Register here. Learn what places the community values and recommendations for protecting their character.
