Re:OZ/OPA 166

Application for Rezoning 1142 Mona Road, (Mississauga), Ontario

To: Mayor and Members of Council

We are the owners of ______and the purpose of this letter is to inform you that as owners and residents in theMineola WestNeighborhood, our household strongly opposes any changes to the current zoning – “Low density – Single Dwelling”.

The City of Mississauga Official Plan (MOP) has historically always identified our neighborhood as low density – single family dwellings. The Current City of Mississauga Official plan continues to identify our neighborhood as low density – single family dwellings and we respectfully oppose this application to rezone.

The City of Mississauga has specifically listed Mineola West in its Cultural Landscape Inventory. The reason for this identification includesrecognition of the large generous tree canopied lotsas well as the following comments stated on the City’s Cultural Landscape description of Mineola West:

“What has evolved today is a wonderful neighborhood with a variety of quality housing stock and a rich stimulating landscape that blends the houses with their natural and manicured surroundings…….A gradual infilling has increased the density over the years and care must be taken to ensure that this does not, in the end, ruin the very quality and character that makes this neighborhood so appealing and attractive. Of the many neighborhoods in Mississauga, the Mineola neighborhood stands out as one of the most visually interesting and memorable.” The dangerous precedence, noise, traffic, parking and visual appeal changing from forestry to a conglomerate of packed homes are all some but not limited to, concerns we share.

Werespectfully ask the council to oppose this application to rezone for higher density. We feel strongly that any infill development should be approved ONLY based on the current Zoning as approved in the City Official Plan.
