Centre Plan

UPDATE: October 11, 2018

Thanks for your input and ongoing support for the Centre Plan. On July 25, 2018 the Community Design Advisory Committee (CDAC) completed its review of comments and submissions received through the engagement process on draft Package A. Through the summer, the Centre Plan Team will begin to make changes to the draft documents based on the feedback received and the discussions had at CDAC over June & July. The team will return to the Community Design Advisory Committee in early 2019 with the next draft of the Package A documents, having had all changes drafted and reviewed by internal stakeholders.

The Centre Plan represents a strong blueprint for smart growth in the Regional Centre: directing high-quality development to areas where it can best be accommodated, and providing enhanced protections for heritage properties and neighbourhoods that are well established. The Centre Plan is phase three of HRMbyDesign. Following the establishment of the Regional Centre vision and principles in phase one, and the creation of the Downtown Halifax Plan in phase two. Taken as a whole, the three phases present a vision of a dense, livable and prosperous Regional Centre (Dartmouth and Halifax urban core) that will create sustained economic, environmental and social benefits across the entire municipality.
