The Curb Appeal program is an important component of the beautification of Vaughan. It recognizes homeowners and businesses who demonstrate exceptional pride and effort in the maintenance of their properties. 

All properties throughout Vaughan are visited by a group of dedicated community volunteers who evaluate properties. This year, properties can receive one of 1,000 signs based on the following criteria:

If you are new to gardening or lawn care and want your property to stand out next year, the City is here to help with the following tips:

• Ensure your grass is cut neatly and free of weeds. To help it grow thick and healthy, add topsoil, seed and water for long periods infrequently instead of short periods often.
• Purchase mulch in a variety of colours to make your garden stand out. Not only does it keep soil healthy, but mulch also holds moisture and nutrients, which will help to stop weed growth.
• Incorporate a variety of plants and flowers in your garden. Perennials such as Bee Balms, Russian Sages, Begonias and Black-eyed Susan’s are low-maintenance and pollinators love them. Annuals like Coleuses and Angelonia are a great way to add height and bright colours to your arrangement.
• Consider adding different colour and size stones or rocks.
• Consider an illumination or water feature, such as lamps or a small fountain.
