(b) That the Council Secretary be authorised to give public notice that the foregoing resolution will be submitted to an ordinary meeting of the Council to be held on Wednesday 23 April 1997 for confirmation by way of Special Order."
3. DEALING WITH ITEMS OF METROPOLITAN SIGNIFICANCE
To consider the following motion, notice of which has been given by Councillor Gordon Freeman pursuant to clause 2.16 of Standing Orders:
"That the Council resolve that when an item has metropolitan significance it be referred initially to the relevant Standing Committee and subsequently to the relevant Community Board for comment."
Councillor Freeman has supplied the following note in support of his motion:
1. The terms of reference for Community Boards previously adopted by the Council provide (inter alia) that each Community Board shall have the following terms of reference:
(i) All matters requiring elected member consideration referred directly to it unless there is a clear metropolitan reason for not doing so.
(ii) Advice to Standing Committees on local implications of all metropolitan projects which have particular impacts in the community in question.
(iii) Advice to Standing Committees on local implications of such metropolitan projects which have city-wide impact as are referred to Community Boards for comment.
2. In my opinion there have been some recent examples where reports on projects of metropolitan significance have been referred in the first instance to Community Boards, rather than the relevant Standing Committee.
4. NAMING OF PROPOSED RESERVE/PARK CENTENNIAL POOL, OXFORD TERRACE
To consider the following motion, notice of which has been given by Councillors Alister James and Anna Crighton pursuant to clause 2.16 of Standing Orders:
"That the city in recognition of the services to Christchurch in particular the inner city by Mrs Elsie Locke name the proposed reserve/park Centennial Pool, Oxford Terrace the Elsie Locke Park/Reserve."
