The City of Vaughan’s 2025 Budget process is underway. It takes a lot of planning to create a budget for a city the size of Vaughan. Learn more about how it works and get involved! 

There’s no shortage of leaves on the ground, and some of them will make their way onto and into catch basins – also known as stormwater drains, which are located in the road. Catch basins give rainwater somewhere to drain, preventing water ponding and flooding on roads. But this process doesn’t work if the drains are blocked or covered by yard waste! 

Vaughan is evolving and growing like never before. It is a place people dream of calling home, starting a business and raising their families. 

To ensure staff at the City of Vaughan are well positioned to advance Council-approved priorities and initiatives – including fighting traffic gridlock, keeping everyone safe, and making more housing options available – the administration continues to evolve as well. 

The City of Vaughan’s Procurement Services team has once again been recognized for its commitment to maximizing taxpayer value, outstanding procurement practices and dedication to efficiency and transparency!

During the Canada Post labour disruption, some City of Vaughan services and programs may be affected. The City is committed to ensuring that residents and businesses are able to access services and programs with minimal disruption.
