2) HRM DISTRICT BOUNDARY REVIEW PROCESS - PUBLIC INPUT

The next steps:

The next step is for HRM to determine the district boundaries based on 16 districts in HRM.

HRM is required to make the final submission on polling district boundaries to the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board. The Board will also hold public hearings before making the final decision on the polling district boundaries (not the number of districts - that has already been determined with the decision of the NSUARB).
HRM is holding a number of public information meetings to review the proposed polling district boundaries and receive feedback from the public before making the final submission to the NSUARB.
