Tune in on Tuesday, April 21 when Members of Council meet to move City business forward
 
The City of Vaughan continues to manage the evolving global COVID-19 pandemic and introduce precautionary measures to further encourage physical distancing practices and keep citizens and staff safe. In support of this direction, Mayor Maurizio Bevilacqua and Members of Council will hold additional electronic-participation Committee of the Whole and Council meetings to move important City business forward.
 
The next Committee of the Whole meeting will begin at 1 p.m. on Tuesday, April 21. A Council meeting will follow at 5 p.m.
 
While Vaughan City Hall remains closed to the public, citizens are still encouraged to participate. In addition to being able to tune in to the electronic-participation meeting at vaughan.ca/LiveCouncil, individuals can submit a written communication for review by Members of Council as part of an agenda item. Written communications can be emailed to the Office of the City Clerk at clerks@vaughan.ca.
 
The communication must:
  • relate to a matter on the agenda.
  • clearly state the request or message you wish to convey.
  • include your name and contact information. 
Please be advised, the name and address for any citizens submitting a communication will appear in the public record and will be posted online following the meeting. For more information about submitting a communication, visit vaughan.ca/HaveYourSay.
