The City values the voice of the public and is dedicated to having constructive and accountable dialogue with the community that is open, transparent, accessible and inclusive. Vaughan is committed to involving, engaging with and hearing from citizens, businesses and stakeholders in conversations about municipal decisions that interest and/or impact them, including this Ward Boundary Review.  
 
There are a number of ways to get involved and join the conversation: 
 
  • Two surveys will be made available for public participation:
    • The first survey is happening now and takes approximately five minutes to complete. It will be available until Jan. 22, 2021. Input through this survey will help to define priorities for the researchers.
    • A second survey will be available in March 2021. Citizens will have the opportunity to assist in identifying which ward boundary alternatives make the most sense. That phase will include many maps to look at.
  • In January 2021, online open houses will be scheduled for citizens to observe, learn and to raise questions about the Ward Boundary Review. Stay tuned and check back often as additional information, dates and times are posted.
  • In March 2021, maps of alternative ward boundaries will be shared with the public for consideration and comment.

Citizens may also sign up to attend one of four virtual public open houses to learn about the Ward Boundary Review process, ask questions and provide feedback on the current ward structure. The four virtual sessions will be held via Microsoft Teams. Participants do not need to download the app to join the meeting. Instructions on how to join will be sent in advance of the meetings.
 
Register to attend one of four meetings:
  • Tuesday, Jan. 12 at 7 p.m.
  • Wednesday, Jan. 13 at 2 p.m.
  • Thursday, Jan. 14 at 10 a.m.
  • Thursday, Jan. 14 at 7 p.m.
 
 
To receive up-to-date and relevant information in a timely manner, you may also submit your email and register for updates on this project. 
 
Citizen input to the Ward Boundary Review will be examined in detail by the consulting team in order to learn what is important to the people of Vaughan. The public’s feedback will be compared to the ideas about what exists in the population trends and in the legal constraints. A summary report will be sent to Council in May 2021 and Council will review and make a decision about whether to adjust the ward boundaries or not.  
 
Oversight of this project is the responsibility of the Office of the City Clerk.
