HALIFAX - A Halifax councillor is urging the public to call police if construction crews show up next week on a part of the city's harbourfront known as Dartmouth Cove.

Coun. Sam Austin says a local developer doesn't have permission to begin infilling work — dumping pyritic slate and quarry rock along the strip of shoreline to create new land.
