Public consultation included:
• 4 public engagement sessions in person, open to the general public, with 72 residents in attendance
(total)
• 1099 online surveys were completed through Shape Your City Community Engagement Hub website
• 444 comments were provided by the public
• 17 stakeholder groups were consulted (e.g., Dalhousie University, Restaurant Association of NS, Local
Business’s Surrounding Ragged Lake/Goodwood Facility, Clean Foundation)

The public engagement is obviously just for residents in the immediate area and would deal with traffic, stink, etc.
The online surveys run by HRM are always slanted to give the result they want and are deceptive by nature.
The stakeholder groups interviewed are a rather curious group.
Nobody was asked whether spending this much taxpayer money over the long term for composting that has no market makes any sense.
