Yesterday was Halifax Regional Council’s last meeting on Microsoft Teams–the tech is switching to Zoom for the next meeting–and HRMs mayor and 16 councillors looked in to cracking down on illegal dumping, heard from Halifax Water and the Halifax Partnership, moved a development proposal for a 13-storey building at 2438 Gottingen Street forward to the next ring of approvals and updated its winter trail-maintenance protocols in parks.
