A plan to build a more affordable, connected, and livable Halifax.
Halifax has experienced a period of rapid growth - and residents are feeling the pressure.
That growth has created real opportunity, but it has also strained housing, affordability, and how people move around the region.
The opportunity ahead is just as significant. City Hall needs to be ready.
Mayor Andy Fillmore was elected with a clear focus: to meet this moment with practical, results-driven leadership.
With more than 30 years of experience as an urban and rural planner, his approach is simple: remove barriers, fix how systems work, and deliver results for residents. That means building more homes, reducing costs, and making it easier to get around the municipality.
It also means working differently - partnering with other orders of government, collaborating with communities, and focusing on solutions that move projects forward.
Halifax is a community of communities. Together, we can build a city where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
Mayor Fillmore's priorities are focused in three key areas:
Housing
Building more homes faster by cutting delays, unlocking land, and fixing the system to deliver the housing Halifax needs.
Mobility
Getting Halifax moving by improving transit, reducing congestion, and making it easier to get around as the region grows.
Affordability
Keeping Halifax affordable by managing costs, improving efficiency, and focusing on the services residents rely on most.
