Don’t let the Grinch or a fire get in the way of carving your prime rib or
glazed ham! To help you have a safe and happy holiday, Vaughan Fire and Rescue
Service (VFRS) is reminding residents of some important holiday fire-safety
tips.
When cooking your holiday meal, follow these tips to ensure it goes off without a hitch:
Do you represent an organization that is advancing a
cause that requires greater public awareness? Or does your association have a
special event taking place in 2022 that celebrates the diversity, heritage and
culture of the community? Submit a request to have an observance commemorated with
a flag-raising, illumination or proclamation from the City of Vaughan.
The halls are decked and presents are wrapped, but the fight against COVID-19
is not over. With the holidays in full swing, the City of Vaughan is encouraging
everyone to do their part in reducing the spread of the virus. Being safe is
the best holiday gift this year.
Tonight at 7 p.m., Mayor Maurizio Bevilacqua will preside over the City’s virtual Order of Vaughan investiture ceremony and appoint six people to the Order of Vaughan for 2021. This is the highest civic honour the City may bestow on individuals who exemplify extraordinary citizenship and better the community.
With the December break just around the corner, the City
of Vaughan is reminding citizens about facility closures, alternate hours and
changes in programming from Friday, Dec. 24, 2021 to Tuesday, Jan. 4, 2022.
Winter weather can
bring strong winds and snowstorms that may knock out your power. These
conditions can also damage power lines and equipment, making it easier for a
spark to turn into a flame. Use the following safety tips from Vaughan Fire and
Rescue Service to help protect yourself, your family and your home from fires
during and after a storm.
Dine out safely over the holidays or grab takeout from a local restaurant
