City of Vaughan Committee and Council meetings continue in May with in-person and virtual attendance options for Members of Council and the public.

Public consultation remains a vital part of the planning and city-building process. There are many ways you can participate in meetings and have your say, including:

• speaking live via teleconference to Mayor and Members of Council during a meeting. To pre-register to speak at a meeting, fill out the online Request to Speak form by noon on the business day before the meeting for an item listed on the agenda. You will be provided instructions on how to connect to the meeting. A test meeting will also be held before every meeting to allow you to assess your connection and software. You can connect through your computer, smartphone or tablet.
• speaking live from a telephone (regular landline or cellphone) during a meeting. To pre-register to speak via telephone, contact the Office of the City Clerk at clerks@vaughan.ca or call Service Vaughan at 905-832-2281.
