The process of constructing a new City Hall began in 1989 when the Council of the time endorsed the principal of a new “Vaughan City Centre.” Since that time a number of studies have been conducted to determine functions of a new Civic Centre and evaluation criteria for potential sites. These activities have culminated in the City Hall Location Study (1.4Mb PDF), received by Committee of the Whole April 30, 2002. Vaughan’s dramatic ten-year growth has resulted in a growing complement of municipal staff. The construction of a new City Hall and Civic Centre Campus reflects the need to consolidate five at-capacity municipal buildings and bring together all the City Hall employees serving the 280,000 residents and more than 7,000 businesses that call Vaughan home.
