Details: Last June the Chain of Lakes Trail Association held an Annual General Meeting and a public workshop to identify what other amenities residents would like to see as part of the new Chain of Lakes Trail. Suggestions included but were not limited to: connections to other communities, tree planting, benches, interpretative signage, and washrooms. As a result of feedback from the meeting and correspondence to the committee, a ten year plan was developed. We would like your feedback on the short term and long term priorities for this trail (as funding becomes available). Detailed plans and costing estimates for the Chain of Lakes Greenway Corridor Development Plan will be available at the meeting for public input.
2012 HRM Citizen Survey Underway
Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM) recently launched its 2012 Citizen Survey. The survey is conducted to gather feedback from residents, measure performance and help guide strategic policy and planning decisions.
Letters to 13,000 HRM residents were sent out. This randomly selected sample of residents, proportionally representative of households from districts across the municipality, was chosen using HRM’s civic addressing database.
The survey can be completed online, in written form, or over the telephone. It asks a diverse range of questions about quality of life, recreation, leisure, safety, community infrastructure and the environment.
The last HRM Citizen Survey was conducted in 2010. Results were used to assist Regional Council in planning and allocating resources for the years ahead.
Nova Insights, an independent local market research firm, was chosen to conduct the survey and collect and manage responses. Final survey results and assessments will be shared with all HRM residents.
