A New Park for Ward 5!

The City has completed the purchase of 27 acres of parkland, formerly used as a 9 hole golf course. The intention is to keep the land as passive recreation with walking trails, areas in which to picnic and just enjoy the peace and quiet of a large green space in the middle of a bustling city.

Once part of a 100-acre family farm owned and worked by the Scott family for over 80 years,

Netherwood Plaza Site

It’s been 3 1/2 years since Netherwood Plaza was demolished. Shortly after it was discovered that a former dry cleaning shop had dumped toxic chemicals behind the unit, necessitating extensive remediation to the soil supervised by the Ministry of the Environment.

Whereas the City’s by-laws mandate safety fencing and weed control, there is nothing that can force an owner to put up hoarding that blocks the view of an ugly site.

The owner intended to build 26 attractive semi-detached homes and a corner convenience store.

Goreway (former Starwinds) 7085 Goreway Drive

Finally, the long vacated Starwinds Grocery building next to the fire station on Goreway will be demolished to be replaced by two affordable apartment buildings and townhouses – much needed new residential units in Malton. The apartments are family-sized with two and three bedroom units. The location is conveniently within walking distance to Westwood Square, Paul Coffey arena and Park and the bus terminal. The Village has very little residential land remaining so this conversion of commercial space to residential will be most welcome.

Bristol Road East and Hurontario – 30 Bristol Road East – Riocan

These buildings by Riocan have been approved on the east side of Hurontario at Bristol Road. They are replacing a portion of the plaza that was lost due to fire. They will be rental buildings, increasing the City’s low supply. Mississauga has been tasked by the Province, in conjunction with Brampton, to take 55% of accommodation for 700,000 new residents by the year 2051. Given we have very little land left to develop, the type of construction these buildings represent is practical infill where infrastructure like water/sewer pipes and roads as well as schools and community centres already exist.
