Sir Miles Warren and Maurice Mahoney. The agenda was dealt with in the following order. 23. TOWN HALL CONSERVATION AND OVERALL PERFORMING ARTS PRECINCT Councillor Carter took no part in this item. The Mayor moved, seconded by Councillor Johanson, that the Council: (a) Commence the design development of the Town Hall restoration (based on option 1 for the southern entry) with the intention to achieve further cost certainty through a tender process and greater understanding of functional requirements via user groups. Option 1 has been recommended based on the balance of strong heritage support and limited functionality and commercial benefits of the other options. (b) Confirm that the option for the Performing Arts Precinct will include the Town Hall restoration (as above), a new Court Theatre, a home for the Music Centre of Christchurch and for the CSO and to continue with the feasibility study for the precinct via stakeholder engagement to achieve a brief and project definition that meets the required Crown/CCC cost sharing agreement budget. (c) Separate the budgets for the Town Hall restoration project and the other Performing Arts Precinct facilities which will provide assurance through project budgets specific as follows: $127.5 million for the Town Hall restoration and $30 million plus partner contributions for the other facilities. Councillor Gough moved by way of amendment: That the Council request that CERA agrees to a variation to the cost sharing agreement to defer a decision on the preferred option for the Town Hall until no later than March 2014. Note that this will provide the Council with the opportunity to fully consider detailed options and costings for the entire Performing Arts Precinct in conjunction with CERA and key performance, production and technical stakeholders. The amendment was seconded by Councillor Wells and on being put to the meeting was declared carried on electronic vote No. 1, by 12 votes to 1, the voting being as follows: For (12): The Mayor and Councillors Beck, Broughton, Buck, Button, Chen, Corbett, Johanson, Keown, Livingstone, Reid and Wells. Against (1): Councillor Gough. Councillor Button moved by way of amendment: (d) That the Council investigate international fundraising opportunities for the Town Hall restoration Project. The amendment was seconded by Councillor Keown and when put to the meeting was declared carried on electronic vote No. 2 by 12 votes to 1, the voting being as follows: For (12): The Mayor and Councillors Beck, Broughton, Buck, Button, Chen, Corbett, Gough, Johanson, Keown, Reid and Wells. Against (1): Councillor Livingstone. 5 COUNCIL 3. 10. 2013 CHRISTCHURCH CITY COUNCIL 29. 8. 2013 23 Cont’d The amended motion was then put to the meeting as the substantive motion and dealt with as follows: Clauses a, b and d were declared carried on electronic vote No.

  • Hagley Oval Section 71 Proposal - Further Information Available
    SUBMISSION ON S71 CHANGES TO THE DISTRICT PLAN - HAGLEY OVAL. My name iss9(2)(a I was part of a group that took part in the Environment Court EC and attended each day for 5 weeks. I learned during that case and subseq uently, to be wary of anything Canterbury Cricket Trust CCT says and even more so what they don't say. I have put in a submission on behalf of HO H, concentrating on amenity. This is my personal submission dealing with the proposed changes requested by CCT and their impact on Hagley Park and its other users. I believe that the use of S71 in this instance is wrong. The ability to question expert evidence and present opposing expert evidence is essential in this sensitive proposal. The RMA is the vehicle t hat can provide this. The minister is no doubt aware of the section in the letter of expectation that advises her regarding the use of S71, where the RMA could be used instead. Also the amendment to the Regenerate act proposed by the current minister Megan Wood and passed unanimously by Parliament protecting Hagley Park from the Regen Act. https://www.parliament.nz/en/pb/hansard This states: "But what we are saying is that when it comes to Hagley Park and the protections that have been built up over that piece of land, it actually is time to return to business as usual. When it comes to that particular taonga in the centre of our city, we do need to be able to say, it is if the earthquakes never happened and it is as if the bespoke legislation that is put in place to aid our recovery and our regeneration does not exist...."
