Councillor Dasko is happy to share another update, as promised.
Both rebates provide financial support to Mississauga residents who install water-resistant materials or other flood prevention measures within their home or on their property.
February 12, 2025
Today, the City launched two flood prevention rebates to help residents offset the cost of installing measures to limit flooding in and around their homes. These two programs offer up to a total of $10,500 in financial support for eligible Mississauga homeowners.
City rebate programs
The City has launched two rebate programs to help offset the cost of upgrades for Mississauga homeowners.
- Flood Resilience Rebate: is a City rebate program created to help those who had flood damage and installed eligible water resilient materials and other measures to make their homes more resistant to future flooding. The rebate pays for up to 50 per cent of the cost of these materials, labour and tax, up to a maximum of $3,000.
- Basement Flooding Prevention Rebate: is a City rebate program created to replace the Foundation Drain Collector Sump Pump Subsidy. This new city-wide rebate program offers up to $7,500 to pay for eligible basement flood prevention measures, such as a sump pump or downspout disconnection.

To provide proof of ownership, you must provide a copy of your City tax bill. The name on the application must match the registered owner listed on the tax bill. You must have experienced flood damage on or after the July 8, 2013, storm event. Only one registered owner per residential address is eligible to receive a rebate.

DRAO Announcement
On November 29th, 2024, the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing announced that the Disaster Recovery Assistance for Ontarians (DRAO) program has been activated for the Little Etobicoke Creek area in response to the July 16th and August 17th and 18th localized flooding events.
Councillor Dasko was instrumental in having the Provincial officials connect with local residents in Ward 1 for inspections, to ensure that a full understanding of the magnitude of the issues in the area were understood. The result of which is that the area has been recognized and included in the program.
Applications for the program will be accepted until the deadline of Monday, March 31, 2025. Homeowners and residential tenants, small owner-operated businesses, and not-for-profit organizations may apply for assistance if they reside in the activation area.
Program guidelines, activation area maps, information sheets, and application forms can be found on the DRAO website.
DRAO is a program that can help with the recovery of costs after a natural disaster. Financial help from the program is limited to $250,000 per application, is subject to a $500 deductible (which may be waived for low-income households), and reimburses up to 90% of your total eligible costs with limits for emergency expenses, household appliances, and furnishings.
The DRAO program does not cover all costs. Eligible applicants may receive assistance for emergency expenses and for repair or replacement of essential property if they do not have insurance—or if their insurance is insufficient—to cover their essential costs according to the DRAO program guidelines. Damage due to sewer-backup is not eligible under the program. An exception is made for low-income households as defined by the guidelines. See details online.
In addition, eligible basement repairs are only allowed to the extent they are returned to a basic and safe state (e.g., stud walls and repairs to essential appliances such as furnaces and hot water heaters). Repairs to furnished basements are ineligible unless there is damage to an essential living space. See details online.
DRAO is a provincial program, and is not related to the various programs and initiatives that the City of Mississauga has undertaken related to localized flooding and flood recovery. Residents who do not reside in the DRAO activation area are still eligible for the other City programs and initiatives.
If you have any questions about the DRAO program, you may contact the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing program staff at: DisasterAssistance@Ontario.ca.

Important facts about stormwater
There are more than 51,000 storm drains in Mississauga, 1,900 km of storm sewer pipes, 270 km of ditches, 150 km of creeks, and 80 stormwater management facilities.
Valued at more than $7 billion, Mississauga’s stormwater drainage system requires constant care. Staff continue to assess and prioritize the most effective improvements to this aging infrastructure. Installing stormwater infrastructure requires a large investment up front, and it is expensive, but important to maintain.
Rebate programs
In February 2025, the City will be launching two additional rebate programs:
- Basement Flooding Prevention Rebate Program will provide rebates up to $6,800 for eligible flood prevention improvements.
- Flood Resilience Rebate Program will provide rebates of 50 per cent of the invoiced cost up to a maximum of $3,000 to cover costs associated with eligible measures taken to make improvements to your home to minimize flooding impact.
Other subsidies
Region of Peel Sanitary Backwater Valve Rebate (Current): The Region provides a $1,500 rebate for eligible homeowners to cover the cost of installing a sanitary backwater valve to reduce basement flooding due to sanitary back-ups of wastewater from the sanitary sewer.

Councillor Dasko is happy to share another update, as promised. Resulting from the last report and Councillor Dasko’s advocacy for his residents councils direction was to staff to come back to Council. Yesterday, on September 25, 2024 with Corporate Report: 10.2. entitled “Council Update – July and August 2024 Extreme Rainfall Events” (attached). This report, which was passed by Councillor Dasko and his colleagues unanimously, is an action-oriented approach to accelerating flood mitigation initiatives, inspection enhancements and increased maintenance and operation activities. Councillor Dasko has also attached his motion for your perusal which was again unanimously passed by all of council.
The following items were passed and are to be actioned:
- A Residential Compassionate Flood Relief Grant Program to provide a one-time grant of $1,000 to Mississauga residential property owners who incurred damages as a result of basement flooding following the weather events on July 16, 2024, or August 17 and 18, 2024, as a result of Councillor Dasko’s motion on September 11, 2024.
- A basement flooding prevention rebate program to provide up to $6,800 to make basement flood prevention improvements more affordable.
- With the number of staff meetings with Councillor Dasko he was pleased to see that staff were convinced to step up the timeline of new and accelerated stormwater projects, as outlined in the Project-based action plan includes accelerating the Design and Construction of the Dixie-Dundas Flood Mitigation Project by 6 years, including infrastructure improvement projects in 2025, 2026, 2027, with a completion year of 2028.
- Enhancements to routine maintenance of stormwater infrastructure
- City staff will work further with local authorities like the TRCA, Alectra, and the Emergency Management Team to identify opportunities to enhance public alerting to residents during localized flooding.
- Staff have been directed to prepare and submit applications to the Municipal Housing Infrastructure Program – Housing-Enabling Water Systems Fund (second intake- November 1, 2024) and Housing-Enabling Core Services Stream programs to support the Dixie-Dundas Flood Mitigation Project.
Furthermore, at the Region of Peel, Regional Council passed a motion on September 12, 2024 to have an increase in the Sanitary Backwater Valve Rebate Program. The program is available to property owners in priority areas in Peel who had experienced sanitary flooding because of a storm event in the past 10 years. Residents living in neighborhoods outside the priority areas can also apply for a subsidy if they have reported flooding to Peel Region in the past or have an insurance claim. Subsidies are 60% of the invoiced cost, up to a maximum $1,500. Residents are asked to call Peel Region at 905-791-7800 to confirm eligibility for the backwater valve subsidy before proceeding with an installation. For more information please visit peelregion.ca.
Please note that there will be an upcoming City-wide Public Information Session for 2024 Flood Events. Councillor Dasko will share more details when they are announced.
Dundas Flood Mitigation Project
WHAT?
- The lands south of Little Etobicoke Creek
surrounding Dixie Road, referred to as “Dixie-
Dundas” for this project, are subject to flooding as
a result of spilling from the creek during high flow
conditions. This urban area consists of a variety of
commercial, industrial, residential, and park land
uses. - The study area of this Schedule ‘C’ Municipal Class
Environmental Assessment (EA) has been broken up
into the “Dixie Area” and the “Dundas Area” for
identifying flood mitigation solutions.
WHERE?
WHY?
- The City of Mississauga has an interest to protect
flood-vulnerable residences and businesses as well as
to intensify Dixie-Dundas area to fulfill the vision of
growth expressed in the Dundas Connects Master Plan.
HOW?
In consultation with the public and agencies, the alternative solutions for both the “Dixie Area” and the “Dundas Area” have been evaluated to identify preferred design concepts for each.

About National Indigenous Peoples Day
This is a day for all Canadians to recognize and celebrate the unique heritage, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Métis Peoples. The Canadian Constitution recognizes these three groups as Aboriginal peoples, also known as Indigenous peoples, that each have their own distinct heritage, language, cultural practices and spiritual beliefs.
In cooperation with Indigenous organizations, the Government of Canada chose June 21, the summer solstice, for National Aboriginal Day, now known as National Indigenous Peoples Day. For generations, many Indigenous peoples and communities have celebrated their culture and heritage on or near this day due to the significance of the summer solstice as the longest day of the year.
This is to notify you of upcoming herbicide application to control Wild Parsnip beginning June 24th, 2025.
Contractors working on behalf of the City, Brinkman & Associates Reforestation Ltd., will apply VisionMax (Glyphosate) directly to the plants using a handheld/backpack sprayer to minimize impacts to plants in the surrounding area. Notification signs will be posted at all access points to the spray area at least 24 hours prior to treatment and will be removed no less than 48 hours after treatment. Treatment should be completed within 2 weeks, but the timelines may be extended as needed depending on weather conditions.
The site list is as follows:
- Helen Molasy Memorial Park
- J.C Saddington Park
- Orchard Heights Park
This work supports the City’s Invasive Species Management Program and improves the health of natural areas across the City.
The Region of Peel Public Works department regularly maintains and repairs the water system to make sure you have a consistent supply of quality drinking water. Sometimes we must turn off your water supply while we work on the system or conduct tests.
On Thursday, June 19th, 2025. From 11:00am to 1:00pm. Please expect a brief water outage and loss of water pressure while we work in your area. If we need to reschedule this work due to weather or other circumstances, we will let you know the new date and time.
Property owner/manager responsibilities during a water interruption
As a property owner/manager, it is your responsibility to:
- Ensure maintenance, mechanical or plumbing staff are on site during the water interruption, as it may affect internal systems that rely on water such as boilers, fire suppression, and alarms.
- Notify the fire alarm company if the interruption could affect an alarm system.
- Have a fire watch completed during the water interruption, as the building’s sprinkler protection system will not function when the water supply is shut off.
After the test shutdown
When we turn the water back on, air in the pipes may make the water cloudy and your plumbing may vibrate or make noise. We recommend removing the air by slowly turning on your taps from the lowest to the highest faucet in the building (that is, starting in the basement/first floor, and finishing on the top floor). You will likely need to run the water for 10 to 30 seconds. Run the water until it is clear, and any vibration or noise has stopped.
Important note
After the water is turned back on, we recommend checking the water meter (usually located in the basement). If it is leaking, call Water Meter Installations Dispatch at:
- 905-791-7800, extension 3226 (8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. – Monday to Friday)
- 905-791-7800 extension 4409 (after hours or statutory holidays)

This morning, Peel Regional Police announced the results of Project Outsource, a major joint forces investigation that has led to the recovery of over $4.2 million in assets and the dismantling of a violent organized criminal network with ties to the towing industry.
In July 2024, Project Outsource was launched to investigate a criminal organization believed to be behind a significant number of extortion incidents and related acts of violence. As the investigation progressed, it became clear that the criminal network operated with two distinct, but interconnected components: one dedicated to extortion and violence, and the other rooted in the towing industry. Investigators uncovered evidence that these individuals were engaged in insurance fraud by staging vehicle collisions, and using threats, assaults, and firearms to exert control over local towing operations.
As of June 10, 2025, 18 individuals have been arrested and charged in connection with this investigation:
- 17 men from Brampton and 1 women from King City.
- The accused face a total of 97 criminal charges related to criminal organization, extortion, fraud, firearms, and more.
- 3 individuals were charged and released to attend court at a later date, while 15 were held for a bail hearing at the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton.
- Notably, almost half of those arrested were already under some form of judicial release at the time of their arrests.
Over the course of the investigation, the following assets were seized:
- 18 tow trucks, with a total value $2.8M
- 4 personal vehicles, with a total value of $840K
- 5 stolen vehicles recovered, with a total value $571K
- 6 firearms
- 586 rounds of ammunition
- 2 bulletproof vests
- Various weapons, including cross bow, taser, baseball bats
Project Outsource was a Joint Forces Operation with Peel Regional Police, Ontario Provincial Police, Halton Regional Police, York Regional Police, and Toronto Police Service. The successful completion of this investigation was made possible through funding from the Government of Ontario, Ministry of the Solicitor General, in which the Criminal Intelligence Service Ontario supported this Joint Forces investigation.

In collaboration with national and international partners, PRP dismantled a transnational organized criminal network trafficking illicit drugs into the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
In June 2024, Peel Regional Police began investigating a cocaine smuggling operation using U.S.-Canada commercial trucking routes. By November, working with partners including the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA), the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration, and U.S. Homeland Security Investigations Border Enforcement Task Force in Detroit, multiple individuals, trucking companies, and storage sites linked to the operation were identified.
Over the course of the investigation, the following was seized:
- 479 kilograms of bricked cocaine, with an estimated street value of $47.9M
- Two illegal loaded semi-automatic handguns
As of June 6, nine individuals were arrested and charged in connection with the investigation, totalling 35 charges related to firearm and drug offences. The accused were held for a bail hearing at the Ontario Court of Justice in Brampton.
The successful completion of Project Pelican was made possible through funding provided by the Ontario Government, Ministry of the Solicitor General in which the Criminal Intelligence Service Ontario supported this investigation.
