A plan to build a more affordable, connected, and livable Halifax.
Halifax is experiencing a period of significant growth - creating new opportunities while placing pressure on housing, affordability, transportation, and the municipal services people rely on every day.
Growth brings opportunity, but opportunity doesn’t become reality without preparation.
Mayor 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, improve 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 removing barriers, modernizing planning, and creating the conditions for more housing across Halifax.
Mobility
Getting Halifax moving by improving transit, reducing congestion, and building a transportation system ready for growth.
Affordability
Keeping Halifax affordable by managing costs responsibly, delivering value for taxpayers, and focusing on the services residents rely on most.
