Join the City of Vaughan during the week of Sunday, May 15 to celebrate its dedicated Public Works professionals! The theme of the 2022 National Public Works Week is “Ready and Resilient” – which the more than 400 members of Vaughan’s Public Works team demonstrate day in and day out. The team continues to be prepared to serve the community, remains resilient throughout the COVID-19 pandemic and strives to provide seamless customer service to residents.

May is Building Safety Month – an important reminder for citizens and industry professionals to prioritize safety when planning construction projects. Whether building a backyard deck, renovating an indoor space or developing a condo complex, obtaining proper permits is a necessary step to ensure construction is completed safely and correctly.

Paying property taxes has never been easier or more convenient. As the third instalment deadline approaches, the City of Vaughan is reminding citizens of the many ways to pay interim property tax bills without having to step foot in Vaughan City Hall.

Spring maintenance operations are well underway with the City of Vaughan’s Public Works teams working hard to keep the community clean, safe and moving. Here is an update on the work:

Street sweeping, catch basin clearing and road maintenance

New strategy focuses on reducing interactions between residents and wildlife 

With warmer weather comes more sightings of Vaughan’s urban wildlife – including coyotes. The City of Vaughan has a new plan to address this that outlines response efforts as well as what residents can do to help avoid or reduce interactions with coyotes.
