WCC, Communications Group Committee minutes

Descriptive Data

Archives Identifier00180Date Range1974-1995DescriptionAt the beginning of their terms of office the Mayor and Councillors met and decided on the number and status of committees to be set up. The Mayor was an ex-officio member of all committees, with a small number of councillors making up the rest of each committee. Committees set the direction of work of Council departments, made decisions within their delegated authority, and referred to the full Council any decisions for which they did not have delegated authority. The Town Clerk, or later the Clerk of Committees, was responsible for taking minutes and ensuring that they were inserted in the minute book, signed, and indexed. The minutes of Standing Committees are public documents, unless the committee has formally gone into closed session. The minutes of one off or ad hoc committees are not necessarily public. The Communications Group of Committees met as one overall group, although individual committees meetings were held within the larger meeting. Minutes of all committees were produced as part of the Communications Group minutes, not separately. The Communications Group covered the cultural matters, libraries, public relations and community services, reserves, staff, bylaws, civil defence. From 1983 there were several different committees, no longer meeting as a Communications Group: Staff Committee, Employment, Business Development & Civil Defence Committee, Parks & Recreation Committee, Cultural, Libraries & City Promotion Committee. Staff matters relating to the communications arm of the city council were also discussed in these minutes. There are both public meeting minutes and minutes of meetings closed to the public in the same volumes. Volumes may include reports, newspaper cuttings, maps and plans as well as minutes.Quantity (Linear Metres)1.32MediumBound VolumeSystem of ArrangementMinutes are arranged in meeting date order.
