  • Councillor R. Starr declared a conflict on this item. (Councillor R. Starr declared a Conflict for the following reasons: Interaction/Discussions with Integrity Commissioner)

Councillor R. Starr declared a conflict on this item as follows:

 Interaction/Discussions with Integrity Commissioner

Robert J. Swayze, Integrity Commissioner explained that as a result of Councillor Starr retaining legal counsel and receipt of new allegations, the report to Council will be delayed.

Members of Council spoke to the matter and raised questions regarding notice periods and the timelines provided to the respondent for their submissions, and the date the report is expected.

Mr. Swayze, responded to questions from Council.

Glen Broll, Glen Schnarr and Associates provided an overview of the concept for the redevelopment of the Heartland Town Centre to include mixed land use and parkland.

Mr. Broll is seeking Council's acknowledgement that the lands can be converted, the removal of employment designation for the area from the Region of Peel's Official Plan Amendment, and that the provincially significant employment zones be refined.

Phil King, Orlando Corporation, provided an overview of the vision for the Heartland Town Centre.

Andrew Whittemore, Commissioner, Planning and Building explained that the removal of employment designation requires a Municipal Comprehensive Review (MCR), which is a Regional responsibility, and proposed that staff from the Region and the City of Mississauga collaborate on a study to complete and MCR in advance of an application for the proposed redevelopment, and the estimated timelines.

A point of order was raised by Councillor Ron Starr to declare a Conflict of Interest with respect to the deputation by Robert J. Swayze, Integrity Commissioner (Item 7.1.).

In response to Councillor Mahoney's inquiry regarding the differences between Reimagining the Mall and the proposed concept, Andrew Whittemore, Commissioner, Planning and Building explained that although the study approach is similar, the land use designations are different.

Members of Council spoke in support of the concept in principle and commented on the mixed use designation; complete communities concept; affordable housing component; public engagement; height and density.

Christine Fang-Denissov, Partner, Urban Strategies Inc., representing SmartCentres Land Holdings, provided an overview of the concept plans for the proposed development at SmartCentres Meadowvale, 1100 Burnhamthorpe Road West, and 780 Burnhamthorpe Road West.  Ms. Fang-Denissov noted that the Region of Peel will reconsider the request for the conversion of employment lands through a new Municipal Comprehensive Review (MCR) process commencing in 2023.

Councillor Saito noted that she has not received a copy of, nor has she been consulted on the proposed development for the Meadowvale location and requested a copy be sent to her.  Councillor Saito raised concerns that the Region of Peel did not consider this through the Regional Official Plan Amendment and noted that she will be bringing a Motion to Regional Council on this matter. 

Councillor Saito noted that the Meadowvale location is ideal, with existing infrastructure that supports the redevelopment and would like to commence discussions with Planning staff to work on a plan to introduce the concept to the community.

Councillor Starr spoke in support of the concept to convert and redevelop the subject lands and suggested that the reference to the Burnhamthorpe locations be updated to include 1140,1170,720 and 780 Burnhamthorpe Road West.

Councillor Parrish spoke in support of the concept to convert and redevelop the subject lands and encouraged delegates Glen Broll, Phil King and Christine Fang-Denissov to make a deputation at the upcoming Regional Council meeting in support of Councillor Saito's Motion.

No members from the public registered to speak.
