The City of Mississauga has refreshed its Strategic Plan, setting a clear direction for how the City will plan and make decisions now and into the future.

Imagine Mississauga (2026–2031) builds on the City’s original Strategic Plan adopted in 2009, while modernizing to meet today’s needs, including affordability pressures, climate change, transportation options, economic competitiveness and community expectations for transparent and accountable government.

The refreshed Plan was shaped through extensive engagement efforts, informed by research, benchmarking and more than 19,000 points of public input, along with feedback from City staff, Council, Indigenous communities and equity‑deserving groups.

The Strategic Plan is structured around five pillars: Belong, Connect, Prosper and Green and the introduction of a new pillar, Trust. This new pillar represents the City’s commitment to fiscal responsibility, transparency and delivering value for money.

In addition to refreshing the City’s long‑term vision and values, the Plan places a strong focus on implementation. To guide service delivery and long-term decision-making across the organization, a new Corporate Accountability Framework was developed. This framework links strategic priorities to planning, budgeting and performance measurement.

The refreshed Strategic Plan – Imagine Mississauga (2026-2031), will serve as a living document, guiding City programs, investments and policies as Mississauga continues to grow.
