The City of Mississauga's design guidelines and site plan requirements for new dwellings, replacement housing and additions inside the areas council designated under the site plan control by-law. Part 2 sets out the design principles one at a time — scale and character, massing, building height, materials, grades, garages, driveways and hard surface, and natural environment preservation — each with preferred and not-preferred photo examples. Part 3 walks the site plan process, circulation, securities, hoarding, tree removal and inspection, with sample drawings and appendices on average grade and Credit Valley Conservation.
