Council meetings
While Vaughan City Hall remains closed to the public, there are many ways citizens can participate in meetings and have their say, including: speaking live via teleconference to Mayor Maurizio Bevilacqua and Members of Council during a meeting, speaking live from a telephone (regular landline or cellphone) during the meeting or  submitting a written communication for review by Members of Council as part of an agenda item.


Waste
Collection schedules, how to purchase bins and tags, and proper setout requirements – this is just a snapshot of the resources available on the City’s waste webpage. There’s also a link to the handy RecycleCoach where you can search by item. For instance, did you know single use and rechargeable batteries need to be taken to a hazardous waste drop-off location?
