![]() Results of the 2016 Halifax mayoral election by district | ||||||||||||||
|
The 2016 Halifax Regional Municipality municipal election was held on October 15, 2016, to elect councillors and a mayor to a four-year term on the Halifax Regional Council, the governing body of the Halifax Regional Municipality. This election was one of many across Nova Scotia as part of the 2016 Nova Scotia municipal elections. School board elections were also on the ballot.
There are 16 districts in the large municipality. [1] On June 8, 2015, the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board approved new boundaries for four of the districts. [2] Districts 9 and 11 swap an area of new development along Northwest Arm Drive called Long Lake Village. This neighbourhood moves from District 11 to District 9. Similarly, there is an exchange between Districts 13 and 14. A number of properties on Hammonds Plains Road in Lucasville move from District 14 to District 13. [3]
In 2015, two councillors, Barry Dalrymple and Jennifer Watts, announced they would not be re-offering in 2016. [4] Longtime councillor Gloria McCluskey followed suit in February 2016, [5] and in May another long-serving councillor, Reg Rankin said his current term would be his last. [6]
