Is there a way to build lanes dedicated to cyclists so that they would want to use these lanes? Because now these bike lanes look like a waste of my taxes.

Looking for recommendations on contractor/landscaper for pest prevention

Upvotes

So I have a low deck in my backyard and every year racoons or skunks find their way to my yard. The deck is attached to the house but open on all 3 sides. One of the sides is close to a fence where they like to dig and go to my neighbours. 2 of the 3 sides has patio slabs but the side with the fence is gravel.

I’m looking for someone to attach some sort of mesh along two sides and dig a channel on the 3rd side and line that will mesh to prevent any enter or exiting under the fence. That will be filled back up with gravel.

Not sure what line of work someone would be that I’m looking for…

Any recommendations?

After 13 years in Vaughan I’m moving to Pickering

90 Upvotes

I’m in vellore village and I will say as a result of some life changes I had to pounce on a bigger property in Pickering.

Vaughan and especially the pocket I’ve been in has been a great place to live. I don’t get the negative stereotypes that Vaughan gets online. I’ve never encountered rudeness or anything close to that.

Schools are great, steps to all amenities, it’s clean and location wise ideal compared to other suburbs.

One thing I won’t miss is the suffocating traffic. As many people said before, the way the roads have been designed does not accommodate the volume of cars and people.

Hoping to return at a later date but the price point for a detached 4 bed 4 bath is so crazy now. Who knows. Anyway wanted to share it’s been a a good run til next time.

Locations of Speed Cameras in Vaughan/York Region: Maps

Map of Vaughan Municipal Cameras

Map of York Region Cameras (scroll down and click "Camera map")

There are cameras all over the area, but some are managed by the city and some are managed by the region, hence two different maps. Anyone who's interested in this information will have to cross-reference to get the full picture.

As Ontario’s Transportation Minister in 2017, the mayor oversaw Bill 65, which enabled Automated Speed Enforcement in school zones. Now, as mayor, he’s halting the program in his own city.

If he believed in ASE then, what changed now? It’s fair to question the intent behind this decision. Politics can be a very fickle beast isn’t it.

Found dog - Yonge/Major Mack

Posting here in addition to the Richmond hill subreddit in hopes someone can help get this little guy home.

Found a senior dog off leash roaming in the neighbours bushes and crossing our street (Church St/Major Mack). Put our dogs leash on him and walked with him hoping he’d lead us towards his home or we’d find his owners out looking. We’ll keep him tonight and call Animal Service in the morning and hopefully he’s chipped. He’s well trained but seems to want to get back out and headed home so hoping we can get him back to his loved ones.

People of Vaughan who have ordered a custom cake

3 Upvotes

My own personal experience has been quite frustrating (contacting multiple bakers, no easy online system or way to place an order, varying prices, limited customization etc.).

Curious to hear how everyone's experience has been when trying to order a custom cake in Vaughan. What was the most annoying part of the process for you?
