The City of Vaughan remains committed to maintaining the competitiveness of the local economy throughout the global pandemic and beyond. On Feb. 15, Mayor Maurizio Bevilacqua and Members of Council took the next step in supporting the business community by endorsing Advantage Vaughan, Phase 3 of the City’s economic development response to COVID-19.

The City of Vaughan recognizes the importance of protecting citizens from the global COVID-19 pandemic while also continuing to move the city forward. Supporting this direction, electronic participation for Committee of the Whole, Council and task force meetings will continue next month.

Stormwater ponds may look safe to skate on – but they are not! The City of Vaughan is reminding citizens that stormwater ponds are not designed or intended for recreational use, such as skating or sledding – no activities on this ice are safe.

Snow is in the forecast yet again, and City of Vaughan crews are ready to respond. The City provides high-quality winter service and continues to collaborate with York Region to ensure streets and sidewalks around the city are salted, plowed and cleared efficiently. But managing winter weather is always easier with the help of all residents.
