Improving local parks and play spaces – for you!
Enhancements, repairs and new developments coming to greenspaces across Vaughan
Spring has sprung and Vaughan’s local parks, playgrounds and amenities will soon fully reopen for the season for citizens to enjoy. Although these spaces were impacted by various COVID-19 closures last year, this did not slow the City down.
Curb box 101
Get a free inspection before doing outdoor renovations to avoid unnecessary future repairs
In the spirit of World Water Day earlier this week, the City of Vaughan is bringing a small but very important piece of water equipment into the spotlight – the curb box!
Every property in Vaughan has a curb box, also known as a water service valve, at the property line that controls the water running to a home or building from the City's watermain.
Thank you, Vaughan crossing guards
The City recognizes School Crossing Guard Appreciation Day today

Spring cleaning? Double-Up Days are coming
Place up to six garbage items out without tags during the weeks of April 6 or April 13
More sunshine, birds chirping and warmer days are telltale signs that spring is here. That means more people will be going through their homes and doing a big clean for the season, which could result in more waste. Have no fear, Double-Up Days are back!
Do your part to conserve water
Simple changes to everyday activities around the home can
make a big difference
Did you know the average family of four consumes
approximately 1,200 litres of water a day for basic household and personal
needs? That's the equivalent of 5,072 cups of coffee down the drain!
Today is World Water Day, an opportunity to
take action to tackle the global water crisis.
