Demolition Control By-law

The Demolition Control By-Law 0045-2019 allows the City to regulate the demolition of residential buildings by:

• Preventing the demolition of residential properties before plans to redevelop are in place
• Requiring reconstruction within a defined period of time

The Demolition Control By-Law affects all residential properties. A Demolition Control Permit is required for the demolition of any dwelling unit. Demolition permits are still required for all buildings in Mississauga, and will be processed with Demolition Control where appropriate.

• No fee required
