Property Developments in Mimico
The riding of Etobicoke-Lakeshore has the 2nd most development projects and applications with the City of Toronto. Many development project designs do not take the needs of Mimico and its residents into consideration. Writing letters to political leaders and attending Community Meetings to represent the need for affordable apartments, suitable community infrastructure investments, and other benefits to Mimico are just some of the things the MRA board and volunteers do.

Mimico Homeowner Energy Efficiency
The Mimico Residents Association is inviting Mimico Homeowners to explore the ways they can improve energy efficiency and reduce the GHG emissions from their homes. To this end, the MRA board hosts occasional seminars to assist residents in better understanding ways to make their homes more energy efficient, such as learning the value of heat pumps, Solar PV/Solar PT, green home renovations, etc. We also help residents find the government programs in Toronto for those interested in reducing home GHG emissions and improving energy efficiency. See here for more information.
Community & Family Events
Throughout the year, the MRA runs many community events for residents, many focused on helping families and children engage with the needs in their community of Mimico. From a Halloween Dance, to Local MRKT events, to the Fall Food Fest, and Park Cleanup Days, the MRA helps you participate in making our community a safe and enjoyable place to live and raise a family. See the details on our events here.
Mimico GO Station
The Mimico Residents Association is advocating for the community to the Governement to address the many challenges surrounding our Mimico GO Station. Generations of volunteer MRA directors have been fighting the unprecedented neglect our station has faced. It’s time to remind Metrolinx that we are still here, and we are still waiting..
