Building Vaughan
Vaughan is a city in demand. And as one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada, it continues to evolve. But city building doesn’t happen overnight. Well before construction begins, developments undergo a careful review by City of Vaughan staff, Vaughan Council, public agencies (such as the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority, York Region and provincial ministries, where appropriate) … and you!

Dandelion season is here
These weeds are not harmful to pets, lawns or gardens
The sun is shining, the bees are buzzing and dandelions have started popping up just about everywhere. Peak growing season for these persistent weeds is happening now and will last until June.
