  • Introduction and Background
    “Resistance is futile”? Halifax’s experiences with multi-level governance in four policy fields Robert G. Finbow, Dalhousie University [email protected] Prepared for Presentation at the CPSA Annul meetings, Carleton University, Ottawa, May 27, 2009 © Robert G. Finbow 2009 Draft version: please do not cite without prior permission of the author. Introduction Halifax presents an interesting case study of the evolving nature of multi-level governance in Canada. Amalgamation and reshuffling of provincial-municipal financing in the 1990’s accentuated an enduring gulf in communications between this growing urban region and a province dominated by rural politicians. Fiscal restraint, federal off-loading to provinces and a neo- conservative regime in Ottawa affected Halifax, which has pressing fiscal needs in a politically fragmented, have-not province. Cities like Halifax are enmeshed in deepening layers of “multi- level” or “multi-order” governance as they confront complex challenges on infrastructure, immigration, land management and development, economic competition and security. While multi- level systems are often portrayed as equitable partnerships among government and non- governmental sectors (Leuprecht and Lazar, 2007), the Halifax experience reveals that such arrangements, however essential, create problems of coordination and accountability which work against efficient policy, limit public influence and reduce responsiveness. This essay summarizes data collected for 4 policy areas for the Halifax Regional Municipality as part of the larger project on Public Policy in Municipalities. In each policy area, the focus is on major projects and activities. The study is based on interviews with stakeholders from government, private sector and non-governmental organizations. The interviews focused on core research questions, and were designed to determine what forms of intergovernmental interaction and societal input contributed to policy formulation in the HRM.

  • 2013/14 Annual Report
    Cover image: Expanded and upgraded Eastern Passage wastewater treatment facility Printing Advocate Design; Printing: Graphic Ward Design: Sharon Our Mission To provide world-class services for our customers and our environment. Our Vision • We will provide our customers with high quality water, wastewater, and stormwater services. • Through the adoption of best practices, we will place the highest value on public health, customer service, fiscal responsibility, workplace safety and security, asset management, regulatory compliance, and stewardship of the environment. • We will fully engage employees through teamwork, innovation, and professional development. Letter from the Chair September 15, 2014 Mayor Mike Savage and Members of Council Re: 2013/14 Annual Report On behalf of the Halifax Water Board, we are pleased to submit the utility’s annual report for the year ending March 31, 2014. The 2013/14 fiscal year was a year of implementation following the completion of the Integrated Resource Plan (IRP), Cost of Service (COS) Manual, and Debt Strategy the year before. With the blueprint for sustainable infrastructure clearly in front of us, the utility received two decisions from the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board [NSUARB] to realize the strategic goals of Halifax Water. The NSUARB rendered a Decision in June facilitating rate increases for water, wastewater and stormwater on July 1, 2013 with another increase in April 1, 2014. The Decision also approved a revised and separate rate structure for stormwater service based on cost causation principles to ensure fair and equitable treatment of customers. In essence, stormwater charges are now based on impervious surface area instead of water consumption.

    Public Perception of Water Quality in Halifax Harbour by Sarah Weston Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of Geography 4526.0 for the degree of Bachelor of Science (Honours) Department of Geography Saint Mary’s University Halifax, Nova Scotia © Sarah Weston, 2010 DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY FACULTY OF ARTS SAINT MARY’S UNIVERSITY This research project report titled Public Perception of Water Quality in Halifax Harbour has been examined and approved for the Department of Geography, and it completes the requirements for Geography 4526.0: Honours Research Project. April 29, 2010 Examining Committee: Dr. Catherine Conrad Department of Geography, Saint Mary’s University Dr. Jason Grek Martin Department of Geography, Saint Mary’s University ii ABSTRACT Public Perception of Water Quality in Halifax Harbour by Sarah Weston The purpose of this research is to identify public perception of water quality in Halifax Harbour in light of ongoing sewage treatment issues and the opening and closure of Black Rock and Dingle beaches for swimming in 2008. An additional research goal was to establish how and from whom the public would prefer to receive water quality data related to Halifax Harbour. Surveys were conducted through interviews in public areas in Halifax and via the internet to determine public perception of Harbour water quality in 2008 and 2009 in comparison to municipal information that was reported during this time. Survey results indicate that public opinion is divided in relation to past and future potential recreational use of the Harbour and its beaches. The goal of this research is to recommend an effective environmental monitoring and management style for Halifax Harbour that improves environmental conditions, engages public participation, and encourages public confidence.
