Major Office Incentives Program
Changes to Peel Region's Role in Land Use Planning
On July 1, 2024, under the Planning Act, Peel Region was designated an "upper-tier municipality without planning responsibilities." Consequently, the Cities of Brampton and Mississauga and the Town of Caledon are the land use planning authorities responsible for local and regional official plans and development applications. The Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing is the approval authority for certain official plan reviews and amendments.
The Peel Major Office Incentives (MOI) Program is a partnership program between Peel Region and the 3 local municipalities (Brampton, Caledon, and Mississauga) to provide financial incentives to encourage major office development.
The program was established to encourage and attract the establishment of more large office developments within Peel and provide stable high-quality jobs.
Eligible major office developments can receive tax increment equivalent grants (TIEGs) for a period of up to 10 years to offset increased property taxes.
The Peel MOI Program is open to receive applications until June 30, 2031.
The renewal of the Peel Major Office Incentives Program was approved by Regional Council in June 2026 and is authorized by by-law 29-2021 and amendments through by-laws 20-2026 and 40-2026.
