Do you have a water leak?

Learn how to check for leaks to avoid high bills

 

Water leaks can happen to anyone – and most leaks are silent, which makes them hard to find. Whether they come from your toilet, bathtub, washing machine or dishwasher, they can cause a high water and wastewater bill and costly damage to your home. That’s why the City of Vaughan is providing tips you can use to help catch leaks early – or hopefully prevent them before they even happen.

Be wildlife aware …

and other tips for sharing our community with coyotes, foxes and other animals

The days may be colder, but urban wildlife – including coyotes, foxes, raccoons, squirrels and more – are still enjoying life here. This is normal, and with these tips from the City of Vaughan, you can be more confident and live peacefully with urban wildlife.

What to know before it snows

Keep parked cars off the roads during and after a snowfall so they can be plowed


As snow starts to pile up, the City of Vaughan is reminding everyone to keep parked cars off the roads during and after snowfalls to allow City crews to clear streets and sidewalks properly. On-street parking blocks our plows from safely passing around parked cars, and streets and sidewalks may not be plowed as a result.  

Do you know your snow removal responsibilities?

Clear snow and ice from sidewalks bordering your property and don’t shovel it onto the road


Winter is here, and more snowfall is in the forecast for this weekend. To help ensure winter operations run smoothly and efficiently, the City of Vaughan is reminding you that shovelled snow does NOT belong on the road. In fact, it’s against the law to place it there. 

Reminders for waste collection in the winter

Ensure snow is not covering waste bins or bags, and keep materials off snowbanks


Vaughan is once again blanketed in snow, and while it may be pretty, it can impact curbside waste collection. Due to the snow, some collection routes may be delayed this week.

Please keep in mind, waste bins or bags buried in snow, frozen to the bottom, on top of or behind snowbanks will not be collected.
