Local Governance
Stay informed with the latest updates and insights from the Sheet Harbour Chamber of Commerce and Civic Affairs.
For the community.
Find information about our local governance, representation, and how we connect with the broader Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM).
Being apart of the HRM.
We are proud to be part of the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM), which is led by our current mayor, Andy Fillmore. The HRM is responsible for municipal services, local governance, and regional development across our area.
While we don't have a dedicated team of councillors or individual council meetings specific to our region, we are well-represented within the larger framework of HRM through our elected officials.
Local Representation.

Recently elected as Mayor, Andy Fillmore was the Member of Parliament for Halifax, from 2015 to 2024. In his nine years as MP Andy has been a champion for issues around infrastructure and housing, science and research, national defence and shipbuilding, and the environment.
