  • Appendix A: Exempt Sites
    APPENDIX A: EXEMPT SITES There are sites in Mississauga identified in Part 3 as Applewood Neighbourhood “exempt”. Exempt sites reflect unique circumstances that are not representative of the vision, direction and planning policies of the Plan, Exempt Site1 but nonetheless are recognized because they contain established land uses. Mississauga Official Plan will not be interpreted to prevent the use of any land or building on these sites for a purpose that is contrary to the Plan, if such uses or buildings lawfully existed on the date of the approval of the Plan. Generally such uses will be encouraged to relocate to lands appropriately designated. It is intended that “exempt sites” will be reviewed during the preparation of local area plans or other planning studies. Lands zoned to permit such uses or buildings are deemed to be in conformity with the provisions of the Plan. The lands identified as Exempt Site 1 are located at the northwest corner of Grand Forks Road and Bloor Street. Existing offices are permitted.

  • Ontario Urban Flooding Collaborative Action Strategy Draft for Discussion Purposes November 2018
    Ontario Urban Flooding Collaborative Action Strategy Draft for discussion purposes November 2018 Prepared by Clara Blakelock, Green Communities Canada with contributions from participants in the Ontario Urban Flooding Collaborative. This initiative is supported by the Ontario Trillium Foundation. Executive summary Flooding is on the rise in Ontario’s cities and towns. Increased development, aging infrastructure, old designs, poor practices on private property and climate change are all contributing factors. While some flooding occurs because of high river and lake levels, even more damage is done by urban flooding: overland flooding away from waterbodies, sewer backups, and sewage overflows. It’s not a simple problem to solve. We need to come together, across sectors and all levels of government, to find and implement solutions. The Ontario Urban Flooding Collaborative brings together organizations who want to work together towards the common vision of flood-resilient Ontario communities. The aim of this action strategy is to define what flood resilience looks like, and identify projects which members of the collaborative can work on in order to bring more communities closer to flood resilience. The projects included here are not meant to be an exhaustive list, but a starting point for discussion. We cannot control the weather or the intensity of storms we face, and so we cannot stop flooding from occurring altogether. But there is a lot that we can do to reduce risk and makes sure we are ready for rain. Vision: Flood-resilient Ontario communities • Urban flood risk is assessed, mapped, and communicated to the public, and highest risk areas are prioritized for improvements; • The public prepares for flooding, minimizing risk where possible, and minimizing downstream impacts, while getting ready for emergencies; • Natural infrastructure is protected and restored, runoff is minimized, and; • Infrastructure is maintained and improved so that all properties are protected as much as possible from large storm events.
