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)

Shovels are in the ground on a new, sustainable district energy system transforming the site of a former coal-burning power generating station into a new, green community at Lakeview Village.
Unlike traditional heating and cooling systems, which are large contributors to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, district energy systems use a network of pipes to heat and cool an entire community from a centralized location. These systems allow for a combination of generation assets that work seamlessly together to improve efficiency, consume less energy, and reduce GHG emissions. They are also more reliable and resilient than traditional systems.
To bring this new system to life, the City of Mississauga and Enwave have signed agreements allowing Enwave to build the necessary pipes and infrastructure on city land and construct a new building to operate the system. These agreements mark a major milestone in the Lakeview Village project and follow several years of collaboration.
Giving treated wastewater a second life
The Region of Peel and Enwave are working to further decrease GHG emissions from the district energy system through a proposed plan to leverage treated wastewater, or effluent, from the nearby G.E. Booth Water Resource Recovery Facility as the main source of low carbon energy for the system. Using effluent to heat and cool Lakeview Village draws on an innovative energy source that would otherwise remain untapped.
Once this transition happens, Lakeview Village’s residential units, offices and commercial spaces are expected to emit significantly fewer GHGs.
Building a new centre for operations and education
The City of Mississauga and LCPL are also moving forward on the Site Development Plan and Building Permit applications to construct a new building that will house:
The district energy operations centre, which will be operated by Enwave.
A sewage pumping station, which will be operated by the Region of Peel.
An educational space to provide learning opportunities for Mississauga residents, visitors and the business community.
Work is already underway, with the first crane installed onsite to support servicing and construction works for the new centre.
Sustainable waterfront community
Lakeview Village is a 177-acre site on Mississauga’s waterfront that was formerly the Lakeview Power Generating Station. Designed to be a mixed-use community, this sustainable and interconnected neighbourhood will feature 16,000 new homes, parks, trails, transit, recreational opportunities, event spaces, and commercial areas for work and shopping.
Earlier this month, construction kicked off on the community’s first residential building with occupancy expected in early 2029.
For more information about planning the Lakeview Village development, visit the City of Mississauga’s Lakeview Village webpage. To learn more about the community, visit mylakeviewvillage.com.
Quotes:
“Today’s announcement highlights our dedication to building mixed-use communities that are sustainable, and include a variety of housing options, jobs, parks and community spaces. Lakeview Village’s focus on innovative, low carbon solutions make it more than just a development project – it sets a new standard for sustainability. I’m proud to work with our partners on this transformative project that will shape the future of Mississauga for years to come.” – Mayor Carolyn Parrish
“This groundbreaking marks an exciting chapter in the evolution of Lakeview Village. Our vision has always been to make this community the most sustainable, innovative new development in the country, and this is a major step. The Enwave system within Lakeview Village is a leading example of how the joint priorities of sustainability and housing development can co-exist, supporting a better future for Ontario.” – Brian Sutherland, President, Lakeview Community Partners Limited
“The groundbreaking of the district energy system at Lakeview Village is an exciting step toward the future of sustainable communities in Canada and beyond. This development is a complex undertaking, which will be the largest of its kind in North America with the integration of effluent, and would not be possible without the determination and collaboration demonstrated by all partners. Together, we are implementing big ideas and critical thinking to achieve the ambitious goals set for this project, and Enwave is proud to make this district energy system a reality.” – Carlyle Coutinho, CEO of Enwave Energy Corporation
“Today’s announcement signals Peel Region’s commitment to working with the City of Mississauga, Lakeview Community Partners Limited (LCPL), and Enwave Lakeview Corporation to leverage treated wastewater from the G.E. Booth Water Resource Recovery Facility as an innovative fuel source for the district energy system at Lakeview Village. Peel Region is a strong advocate for sustainability and committed to researching and implementing state-of-the-art treatment processes and technology at our facilities. We are always working to be a collaborative community partner, and providing this future fuel source for our neighbours at Lakeview Village demonstrates our environmental leadership.” – Chair Nando Iannicca, Peel Region

Watch the overview of the 2025 preliminary Budget and Business Plan.
Peel Region has identified the need for a new gravity trunk sewer along the Queensway East, which will provide the required level of service to support growth in the City of Mississauga. The Queensway East Trunk sewer (QET) will span from Hurontario Street to Etobicoke Creek.
The City of Mississauga, under the Noise Bylaw, is allowing work to be carried out by the contractor (Geophysics GPR International Inc.) overnight. The work involves conducting a land survey for the purpose of identifying the quality of the soil and rock. This overnight work will occur along the north end of Queensway East at Stanfield Road intersection. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience caused by this work.
Schedule
This overnight work is expected to take place for multiple evenings, from Wednesday, October 23 to Thursday October 24, 2024. Additional nights may be required due to unpredictable delays, such as poor weather conditions.
Traffic impacts
The night shift will require a temporary lane closure on Queensway East at the intersection of Stanfield Road between the hours of 10 p.m. and 6 a.m. Vehicles heading southbound on Stanfield Road will be rerouted through Middlegate Road and Haines Road to Queensway East and vice versa for those heading northbound. Signage will be available for detour route directions.
Noise
We do not anticipate significant noise or vibrations above normal daytime construction levels during these operations. Efforts will be made to reduce the impact on nearby residents as much as possible.
Safety during construction
Construction zones require extra caution to keep everyone safe – pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and construction workers. When driving, walking, or biking through the construction area, please be aware of your surroundings, watch for construction crews and other road users, slow down, account for delays, and consider other routes if possible. To learn more about how to stay safe in construction zones, visit http://peelregion.ca/workzonesafety
