At their May 30, 2017 meeting Halifax and West Community Council changed the name and terms of reference of District 7 and 8 Planning Advisory Committee to add a portion of District 9.  The new name of the committee is Halifax Peninsula Planning Advisory Committee.

The Halifax Peninsula Planning Advisory Committee advises Halifax and West Community Council on planning strategies, land use by-laws and development applications for a specific area within the Halifax peninsula as described in the Terms of Reference. The committee also holds public meetings associated with municipal planning strategy amendment applications as deemed necessary. More detail about the committee’s role and the area it serves can be found in the Terms of Reference  [PDF].
