Making Vaughan’s parks ‘smarter’

Scan QR codes to report litter or make a service request

The City of Vaughan is always looking for new and innovative ways to enhance the delivery of Service Excellence for everyone – and expanding our SmartParks program is one of them! 

SmartParks allows you to report a problem such as litter or make a service request by simply scanning a QR code with your smartphone. The City introduced SmartParks as a pilot project in 2022 with five parks, and is now rolling out this innovation to an additional 10 new locations!

SmartParks is available in the following parks:

• Chatfield District Park (100 Lawford Rd.)

• Concord/Thornhill Regional Park (299 Racco Pkwy.)

• Doctors McLean District Park (8100 Islington Ave.)

• La Rocca Square (327 La Rocca Ave.) 

• Lakehurst Park (486 Conley St.)

• Mackenzie Glen District Park (220 Cranston Park Ave.)

• Maxey Park (199 Willis Rd.)

• Mosswood Park (641 Thornhill Woods Dr.)

• North Thornhill District Park (300 Pleasant Ridge Ave.)

• Peak Point Park (68 Peak Point Blvd.)

• Secord Park (65 Secord Ave.)

• Sonoma Heights Community Park (100 Sunset Ridge)

• Sugar Bush Heritage Park (91 Thornhill Woods Dr.)

• Thornhill Green (19 Beverley Glen Blvd.)

• Vellore Heritage Park (9541 Weston Rd.)

This program was designed to make it easier for you to tell us if grass needs cutting, a playground needs repairing or garbage bins are full – with just a few clicks on your device! The QR codes are located on lamp posts near park entrances or amenities and fencing by gateway entrances to sports facilities. Accessing the City’s online services when out and about has never been easier.
