Water Interruption Notice – C-603751 47 Ben Machree Dr, Mississauga Thursday, November 7th

By Announcement, Resources, Ward 1

Dear Customer:

The Peel Region 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 do this work.

Your water will be turned off on Thursday, November 7th, 9:00am to 5:00pm. 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 water interruption

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)

By Announcement, Food for thought

Mississauga begins budget process with launch of proposed 2025-2028 Business Plan & 2025 Budget

Ever wonder how your tax dollars are spent or how the City prioritizes its investments? The City’s proposed 2025-2028 Business Plan & 2025 Budget, presented in the budget document, can help answer questions including ones commonly asked by residents like, “how will this year’s budget impact my taxes?” or “how does the City prioritize certain projects?”.  

By diving into the budget document, you’ll be able to discover how decisions are made on everything from infrastructure improvements to community programs and transit. The budget helps understand how the City improves quality of life, the services we rely on, and even the future of our neighbourhoods. 

Mississauga plans and budgets for activities and programs through three planning phases: the current budget year, in this case 2025; the four-year plan, 2025–2028; and the 10-year capital program, 2025–2034. This multi-year approach allows the City to respond to political, economic, social and environmental circumstances. 

Find the 2025-2028 Business Plan & 2025 Budget document here.

Peel Public Health recommends layers of protection for respiratory illness season

By Announcement

As the weather gets colder and people move indoors, the risk of catching viruses like the flu, COVID-19 or respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) increases. No single measure on its own is 100% effective at preventing the spread of respiratory infections but practicing them all together provides the best protection. In the community, this includes: 

·       Stay home when sick, and if unable to stay home, wear a mask and avoid vulnerable populations. 

·       Wash your hands often with soap and water or using an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. 

·       Cough or sneeze into your upper sleeve or elbow, not your hand. 

·       Consider wearing a tight-fitting, well-constructed mask in indoor public settings, especially if you or anyone you are with is at higher risk of severe infection. 

·       Stay up to date with vaccinations. Vaccines help lower the risk of infection, work to reduce severe outcomes if infected, and aid your body’s natural defenses to develop protection against disease. 

Peel Public Health’s website for respiratory illness season will be updated throughout the fall and winter. 

Protecting the Most Vulnerable
Certain groups are at higher risk of severe illness from respiratory infections. These include: 

·       Babies under six months (who are too young for vaccines) 

·       Children under five years old 

·       Adults aged 65 and older 

·       Pregnant individuals 

·       People with underlying health conditions such as asthma, heart disease, or diabetes 

·       People experiencing homelessness / precarious housing 

·       People who are Indigenous (First Nations, Metis, Inuit) 

·       People experiencing barriers to accessing health care, including but not limited to those belonging to racialized communities 

Vaccine Information and Eligibility 

All respiratory season vaccines are free for Ontarians regardless of citizenship or immigration status. You do not need an Ontario health card to get vaccinated. Individuals without a health card can receive the flu and COVID-19 vaccine from a community health centre or local pharmacy.   

Flu and COVID-19 Vaccines
Flu and COVID-19 vaccines are available for all Peel residents six months and older. Make an appointment to get the vaccines at: 

·       Family doctors and walk-in clinics  

·       Participating pharmacies  

·       Peel Public Health clinics – Children over six months to four years old can get their COVID-19 and flu vaccines at Peel Public Health clinics. Residents can receive the flu vaccine at the same time, or any time before or after a COVID-19 vaccine. Peel Public Health clinics will offer the standard dose flu vaccine, not the high-dose or adjuvanted formulations. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist about the high-dose or adjuvanted influenza vaccine. You can book appointments online or call Peel Public Health at 905-799-7700, toll-free 1-888-919-7800.

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)
RSV is the most common cause of bronchiolitis and pneumonia among infants and young children, and a major cause of hospital admissions in young children and older adults. This year, Ontario is expanding its RSV prevention programs. Individuals 60 years and older, and select pregnant individuals, may be eligible for a publicly funded RSV vaccine. Infants and high-risk young children are eligible to receive an RSV prophylaxis.   

For more information on whether you are eligible for this vaccine and prophylaxis, and how to get it, please contact your primary care provider or visit Peel Region’s website. 

Visit Health811 online or call 811 (TTY 1-866-797-0007) for health advice and information 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

“Respiratory illness season is an important time to protect ourselves and our loved ones. By practicing a combination of preventive steps, including recommended vaccinations, we can all reduce the risk of illness for everyone. Peel Public Health works collaboratively with partners across the health care system to ensure convenient and equitable access to those seeking vaccines. We encourage residents to take advantage of many options available to protect themselves and our community.”

Water Interruption Notice – C-603959, 2155 Wedgewood, Mississauga, Friday November 1

By Announcement, Resources, Ward 1

Dear Customer:

The Peel Region 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 do this work.

Your water will be turned off on Friday, November 1st, 12:00pm to 4:00pm. 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 water interruption

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)
