The mayor also said Vaughan Fitness will reopen on Monday, Aug. 10, adding there will be “strict measures” in place to “protect all users and staff” from COVID-19. Vaughan Fitness is part of the city’s recreational services offered to its residents.

On Aug. 13, the City of Vaughan said in a statement that it “continues to take a disciplined, measured and responsible approach to reopening the city.”

It added how “citizens are reminded to use caution when visiting recently opened facilities and amenities.”

On Aug. 10, Vaughan Fitness -- part of the city's recreational services offered to its residents -- opened. However, most of Vaughan’s facilities, including city hall, will remain closed to the public until Monday, Jan. 4, 2021, and “potentially beyond.”
