If the motion is passed such a protocol can be drafted for public buildings, spaces and structures of significance.  It should also be noted that the Planning and Transportation SPC is currently examining a protocol for naming bridges/parks/plazas etc.  Is is anticipated that the SPC will be recommending such a  protocol to the full Council once it is complete.
