We are writing on behalf of Primont Homes (Heritage Heights 1) Inc. and Primont Homes (Heritage Heights 3) Inc., the owner of approximately 88 acres of land known municipally as 0, 10344 & 10916 Mississauga Road in the City of Brampton (“City”). These lands form part of the Heritage Heights 52-2 Precinct Planning Area, located within the approved Heritage Heights Secondary Plan (“HHSP”).

We are writing to express our concerns with the changes proposed to the Narrowed Area of Interest (“NAI”) for the Northwest GTA Transmission Corridor (“Corridor”) and the resulting impacts on the broader Heritage Heights community. As active members of the Heritage Heights Landowners Group (“HHLOG”), we fully support the submissions made by the HHLOG.

While it is acknowledged that the revised NAI does not directly affect Precinct 52-2, it has significant implications for the broader Secondary Plan area within which Precinct 52-2 is situated. The HHSP was developed as an integrated planning framework, with land use, transportation, and servicing strategies designed to function cohesively across all precincts. A major modification to a key piece of infrastructure – such as a transmission corridor – inevitably affects connectivity, land availability, development sequencing, and long-term infrastructure planning.

The proposed NAI is inconsistent with the long-protected co-location area and disrupts nearly two decades of coordinated planning. The refinement introduces a substantial realignment on the west side of the proposed Highway 413 corridor within the HHSP. Approximately 4 km of the NAI is no longer co-located alongside the Highway 413 corridor and instead creates a separate, linear infrastructure corridor that splits the HHSP for the first time west of Heritage Road.

This release represents a sudden and unexpected departure from previous materials, and we understand there was no consultation with the HHLOG prior to this revision. For context, the Province was aware of the mediated Secondary Plan settlement before the Ontario Land Tribunal in 2024 and did not raise concerns at that time, as the plan continued to reflect the long-established principle of co-locating the transmission corridor with Highway 413. We therefore request that the transmission corridor alignment within the HHSP be maintained within the existing protection area and placed immediately adjacent to Highway 413. The current proposal to abandon this approach is contrary to the objectives of efficient, integrated infrastructure planning, established provincial policy, and the Premier’s mandate to deliver homes faster.

With supporting infrastructure under construction and several post-Secondary Plan applications filed with the City, Heritage Heights was positioned to provide immediate housing relief to the Region. However, the proposed NAI refinement will necessitate complete re-designs across significant portions of the HHSP area, resulting in major delays to housing delivery at a time when Ontario urgently needs new homes.

We respectfully request that the Ministry pause on any further action regarding the Transmission Corridor and to reconsider the proposed alignment or, at a minimum, engage directly with the HHLOG and the City of Brampton, who are responsible for implementing the Secondary Plan. Coordinated planning at this stage is essential to maintaining the integrity and success of the Heritage Heights Secondary Plan.
