  • Mayor Cecil Clarke and CBRM City Council Letter
    Recipient: Mayor Cecil Clarke and CBRM City Council Letter: Greetings, In the past 5 years the HAT has put on hundreds of shows and has revitalized the downtown core. It has mentorship programs for young actors and adults alike. It has become a second family for the children and parents alike of hundreds of families across the CBRM. CBRM council voted to put the CBRM's new firestation across the street from the Highland Arts Theatre, with absolutely NO consultation with the public, no transparency whatsoever. Those of you who have been to a live theatre performance understand just how damaging to the entire experience having a constant barrage of loud firetruck sirens and horns, or even one such interruption at precisely the wrong moment in a show, can be. We have spoken to City Council and they are adamant about not revisiting and changing that decision despite the very real danger of it putting the HAT out of business. They need to be made to understand that they are endangering the future of the youth of this community for whom the HAT has become a vital resource to help them develop theatrical and crucial life skills, and that the people of the CBRM will not stand for this! Council needs to find a better location for the firestation that does NOT put live theatre at risk. Signatures Name Location Date James Munroe Sydney, Canada 2020-03-02 Grace Campbell Sydney, Canada 2020-03-02 Andre Desjardins Eskasoni, Canada 2020-03-02 Josh Haq Sydney, Canada 2020-03-02 Ali MacDougall Sydney, Canada 2020-03-02 WILLIAM PALANDER Sydney, Canada 2020-03-02

The ambitious 95 point plan, passed by council in November 201.2, is transforming our municipal government by ensuring better outcomes on behalf of ratepayers. Almost all initiatives are complete or in progress with final objectives to be dealt with in 2076. Some turning points: . The Port Summit held in February 2013 led to significant changes in how the municipality approaches port development. The CBRM is no longer paying marketers. Instead, a private-sector consortium is moving forward and paying their own costs. This new approach has brought real investment and new jobs to the port. The Five-year Capital Plan outlined CBRM's infrastructure plans to the provincial and federal governments. As a result, CBRM was the first municipality to announce Building Canada funding. So faf, almost $90 million in cost-shared projects have been announced. If* r\\.

  • Section 1.0 To
    EMERA NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR MARITIME LINK ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT REPORT 1.0 INTRODUCTION NSP Maritime Link Inc.2 (operating as ENL), a wholly owned subsidiary of Emera Newfoundland and Labrador Holdings Inc., is proposing to construct and operate a new 500 megawatt (MW) [+/- 200 kilo volts (kV)] high voltage direct current (HVdc) and high voltage alternating current (HVac) transmission line, and associated infrastructure, between Granite Canal, Newfoundland and Labrador, and Woodbine, Nova Scotia (the Project; the Maritime Link). The Project will link the provincial electrical power transmission systems of Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) and Nova Scotia (NS). The location of the Project is shown in Figure 1.1.1. This document is intended to fulfill the environmental assessment (EA) requirements for the construction and operation of the Project. Specifically, this document addresses the requirements of a transitional screening-level assessment under the former Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA) (1992); an Environmental Preview Report (EPR) under the Newfoundland and Labrador Environmental Protection Act (NLEPA); and a Class 1 Undertaking under the Nova Scotia Environment Act (NSEA). The EA has been prepared to respond to the Guidelines for the Preparation of an Environmental Assessment Report (the Guidelines) which were collaboratively developed for the Project by the Governments of Canada, Newfoundland and Labrador and Nova Scotia (2012) (Appendix A). ENL regards environmental protection as a continuously evolving process that applies to all aspects of the company’s operations. Environmental assessment is one step, albeit an important one, in this overall process of adaptive environmental management. The broader regulatory compliance continuum runs from policy to construction to operation, including design, EA, permitting, mitigation, follow-up studies, and effects monitoring.

  • Shaping Our Future in the Cape Breton Regional Municipality
    shaping our future in the cape breton regional municipality A Reorganization Plan for Positive Change mayor cecil clarke november 2012 GUIDING PRINCIPALS Municipal leaders will set the tone for our community, creating the spark and being the catalyst for significant, positive community change. The CBRM will demonstrate a positive tone; one of collaboration, advancement, focused energy, partnering and future promise. The Cape Breton Regional Municipality will demonstrate transparency and strict reporting in the strategic business of its government. Decisions will be made that will empower the CBRMʼs over 850 employees, to ensure they have the benefit of working in one of Canadaʼs best-run municipalities. Front-line service to our residents and our businesses will be maintained and enhanced. The CBRM will be the most business and development friendly municipality in Atlantic Canada. The CBRM will be a community that leads, implementing a minimum standard of care philosophy and pursuing opportunities that will advance our region. Our government will be inclusive and will regularly consult with our stakeholders, including the residents, business leaders, organizations and partners. 1 THE CBRM CHARTER ACT It is vitally important that the CBRM respond directly to our own challenges and opportunities in a timely and flexible way. A Charter Act will allow us to function more effectively and efficiently by giving us the tools that we need, legislatively and financially, to address economic shifts and to take full advantage of opportunities as they arise. The CBRM faces challenges with declining population and double-digit unemployment, yet it is the second largest municipal government in Nova Scotia.

Adoption of agenda 3. Unanimous 3. President’s Report Ted Bartlett • The COVID Virus has made for a terrible year in public transportation in all modes. • The virus has also made for a negative political climate for transportation and the involvement of government. • Contacts have been made with various Atlantic Region M.P.’s. Especially notable was a lengthy interview with Fredericton MP Jenica Atwin, who appeared to be particularly knowledgeable and supportive. Before the advent of the virus, she had been using the train regularly to travel to Ottawa. • VIA Rail management has not been particularly communicative, but we have been assured that the train will eventually return. No consideration was given for passengers, especially those in transit, when the train was hastily cancelled at the beginning of the virus crisis leaving some passengers stranded. As it stands passenger rail has been cancelled for an indefinite period and it is unclear as to when service might resume. • The turning loop previously used by VIA Rail has ben closed, which will mean a reconfiguration of the train consist with reverse running when the service eventually resumes.
