This report, released by CVC this year (2022) provides a thorough overview of the monitoring work done at the Imax Corporate Headquarters, located in Mississauga, ON. The parking lot was expanded and retrofitted with a combination of traditional asphalt and [[Permeable pavement]]. The asphalt runoff drains to one of three vegetated [[Bioretention]] units on site. The parking lot runoff is collected, absorbed and filtered by these LID practices before entering a [[Wetland]] adjacent to the parking lot.

This report by CVC highlights the benefits of a multi-LID retrofit on a mixed-use street with residential homes and an education centre on Elm Drive in Mississauga. The retrofit included, a [[Permeable pavement]] sidewalk and parking layby along with six [[Bioretention]] cells connected with an [[Underdrain]]. The site now provides stormwater treatment by improving the quality of stormwater discharged (thermal mitigation, reduction in runoff volume to storm sewers, etc.) to Cooksville Creek.
