How does Community Visioning fit with the Regional Plan?
The Regional Plan, approved August 2006, is the guide for the future development of the HRM. Over the next 25 years, the Regional Plan will direct growth to a series of compact, mixed-use, walkable growth centres – all linked together by a transit system. Community Visioning is the important community engagement component essential to the community development of these growth centres. Community Visioning is also an important component of achieving a shared vision of the future of HRM, without taking away from the character that makes HRM a distinct and attractive place to live.
