Carmen Corbasson Community Centre has been named a recipient of the 2026 Ontario Association of Architects Design Excellence Award, marking a significant achievement for the City of Mississauga. The prestigious award recognizes projects that demonstrate architectural excellence and make a meaningful contribution to the communities they serve.
City building | May 15, 2026
Designed as a “pavilion in the forest,” re-designed Carmen Corbasson Community Centre strengthens its relationship to its woodland surroundings through a simple rectangular mass timber structure, introducing transparency and framing nature as an active participant in daily recreation. The 45,000-square-foot expansion integrates a pool, fitness centre, and aerobics studio with the existing arena and gymnasium complex.
Unifying multiple construction eras, the project extends the original building’s architectural logic while resolving circulation and accessibility challenges, and drawing daylight deep into the interior. The result is a design that expands programming opportunities, while renewing the centre’s role as a vibrant community hub.
The Ontario Association of Architects Design Excellence Awards recognize outstanding architectural projects across the province that demonstrate design quality and a positive impact on communities.
In 2026, the Ontario Association of Architects selected 20 finalists through a jury of design professionals. This year’s finalists represent a range of building types, including sustainably designed community centres, innovative housing projects, revitalized academic and cultural facilities, and transformative public spaces.
The awards highlight the work of Ontario architects who design spaces, buildings and communities that enhance the environment and support meaningful human activity.
“Being recognized with a 2026 Ontario Association of Architects Design Excellence Award is a tremendous honour for the City of Mississauga and for everyone involved in delivering the redevelopment of Carmen Corbasson Community Centre. This facility reflects our commitment to high-quality, sustainable design that supports community well-being and creates lasting value for residents. I am incredibly proud of the interdisciplinary City teams whose collaboration and dedication brought this vision to life.” – Raj Sheth, Commissioner, Community Services
“This recognition reflects the leadership and collaboration behind the project, from early design through delivery. By working closely with our project partners, we were able to create a well-designed space that balances design excellence with functionality, sustainability and community needs.” – Anna Cascioli, Director, Facilities & Property Management

New fees have been approved for the City’s launch ramps to help fund their operation and maintain orderly procedures.
City services | April 27, 2026
The City’s launches are used about 8,000 times annually and are busiest on summer weekends. The City has had to increase staffing and security to manage the high demand.
The fees apply to anyone who uses a trailer to launch their watercraft from the ramps. Residents will pay $10 for one day, $40 for seven days or $120 for the full season. Non‑residents will pay $15 for one day, $60 for seven days or $180 for the full season. Paying the seasonal fee allows users to launch their watercraft from the ramps at Marina Park and Lakefront Promenade for the entire season, from when the ramps open in the spring until the fall, weather permitting.
The fees can be paid online. In-person payment is also available at the City’s marina offices. Marina staff will be on site to explain the new fee, help with mobile payment if needed, and check that the fee has been paid.
