ACCAB Workshop Feedback Summary 26 November 2014

 

File No.: CP2014/28889

 

Purpose

1.       To discuss the feedback received from the workshop held on 26 November 2014.

Executive Summary

2.       Central Wharves and Berthage Discussion

a.       The presentation focused mainly on cruise ships

b.       It embodied a series of assumptions that several of the Members identified as needing to be examined

c.       Members expressed significant concern that the options presented need to be revisited in light of the intention of the strategy, making clear the values and assumptions which each option embodies

d.       Key areas of concern identified were:

i.        In relation to the growth of the cruise industry, what is the growth aspiration – it can’t grow forever – what is the volume that we are aiming for, and what is the maximum capacity for Auckland’s harbour? What is the maximum absorption capacity of land-based surroundings for visitors? John Smith mentioned potential 50%-70% passenger growth over the next 10 years.

ii.   Ngati Whatua and Heart of the City are implacably opposed to any reclamation

iii.      Significant reservations about the in-built assumption that POAL should have a ‘like for like’ land swap with any land appropriated for non-port usage – compensation should not automatically be land, particularly when the demand is not established (eg requisitioning Captain Cook wharf shouldn’t necessarily lead to the Port being allowed to extend Bledisloe – compensation can occur in other ways)

iv.      Use of Queens Wharf – Institute of Architects question whether the ‘axis’ down Queen St should terminate in a cruise terminal that is not accessible to Aucklanders

e.       The debate clearly signalled that this is an important issue for Board members which requires significant further discussion

f.       Further information is needed as other work is going on in parallel that will inform the issue further – eg the Port Development Study, work mentioned by Rory on freight, assumptions behind the expansion of the cruise industry, work relating to ferries? In addition, there are several parallel projects identified including the sea wall upgrade, Quay St upgrade and Queen’s Wharf redevelopment. It would be helpful to revisit the Interdependencies chart presented to us at the 27 August meeting

g.       It would be possible to start from a wholly different set of assumptions, for example (arguably!):

i.        ‘What is the ideal outcome for Auckland, and how might we achieve it?’ The strategy outlined in John Smith’s presentation was “to balance the growth of ferry, cruise, visitor services and port operations, in a limited space with the aspirations for a vibrant people-oriented waterfront”. How this will be achieved is the big question

ii.       No reclamation is acceptable

iii.      Queens Wharf must be retained as public space because of the Queen Street axis

iv.      While it may be the case that any space requisitioned from the Port should be compensated, there should be no assumption that this requires reclamation but rather that this will encourage intensification and efficiencies

v.      It should not necessarily assume growth in the Port’s requirement for space (or even volumes)

vi.      Cruise companies want 350m berths – do they need this to be accommodated fully, or can ships ‘make do’ with shorter berths?

vii.     How are harbours analogous to Auckland’s adjusting to the growth in the cruise industry and the increasing size of liners? Can we draw on international comparators to see how we could accommodate these changes?

viii.    Cruise Strategy - Capacity of the Downtown area to support growth in peak visitor volumes. Has / is pedestrian modelling being carried out on Quay St as part of the Quay St upgrade project to model the capacity of the present and future scenarios? Has the Downtown Development been included? Basic information on the scope and arrangement of the Downtown Development should now be able to be obtained by the relevant Council team from the Developer (who is in pre-lodgement design phase) to enable this modelling to occur. A Quay Street centric study of the desired public realm outcomes (rather than a cruise industry centric model) would be interesting to see how many people the City wants to deliver into the public realm at peak to deliver the desired outcomes. How this population interacts and affects the working and local retail population would be of interest. The capacity will transition over time as Quay Street changes to become slowly more pedestrian orientated. The potential capacity is probably much much higher than at present and can support growth envisaged but modelling would be very useful to reveal the patterns throughout a typical February afternoon with say 3-4 major liners berthed -  and the resultant pressure points. This modelling may already be occurring.

ix.      Wharves - Shared Space. Notwithstanding the subtleties of tenure the wharves are already, or are destined to be in public ownership and are ideally considered as shared spaces. They are beautiful spaces to be in and on at any time and design work and funding of wharf 'shared-space' projects would ideally support both the needs of the cruise industry alongside the creation of superb distinctive public open space. This can and needs to be a part of Auckland's competitive advantage as a harbour city. The original Queens Wharf design competition (for cruise terminal and activated public open-space) envisioned this outcome. It has yet to be delivered. Sydney's terminal on the western side of Circular Quay achieves this to a degree. The wharves of the inner harbour of Genoa do achieve this - where small liners somehow seem to be able to co-habit with outdoor dining, the evening Promenade, and good quality service retail.

x.      The ongoing growth in the central residential population means growth in demand for Central public open spaces of all kinds to provide the amenity for Auckland's Central residential community. Queens Wharf and the other wharves have a critical role to play in this. In short 'land -side' demand needs to be balanced against the 'water-side' demand. Both have a role to play in economic development, activation, and visitation.


3.       Aotea Precinct Framework

a.       Members appreciate early involvement and made extensive comments – more are welcomed and we should take advantage of this opportunity to contribute

b.    Some issues recognised:

i.   Sense of community and belonging

ii.   Different patterns of usage night and day

iii.  Management of Auckland Council property in the area

iv. Integration with economic plans for the area

§ retail strategy and action plans?

§ Enabling of a ‘digital layer’

v.  Integration with other framework plans

§ eg mid-town hasn’t got one

§ show within geographic context of city centre

vi.      Need to see Queen St as an entity – ie need for CCIG to retain a holistic perspective of how the city functions in addition to the discrete components

vii.     Importance of public spaces and community – residents/noise, needs of ageing population as well as families, accessibility requirements, students, etc

§ Mix of types and sizes of public spaces

§ Different recreational needs due to ethnic diversity

§ Multi-lingual community

§ Potential reverse-sensitivities due to increasing residential density

viii.    Specifically, the impact of the proposed busway (noise, vibrations, fumes, pedestrian safety, etc) slicing right through the heart of the precinct

§ Form and function of Public Transport corridors need to complement demands for place-shaping

ix. Need to incorporate “look and feel”, aspirations, identity etc

x.  Fine-grained permeability

§ Priority for pedestrians

§ Good connectivity between places and spaces including Aotea Station

x.  Reflect the geographical nature – ‘head of a valley’, green aspect

 

c.         Refer separate Feedback Maps for additional comments (Attachment A)

 

4.       City Centre Public Transport Infrastructure

a.       Presentation focused on the role of buses in new network

b.       Concern by some Members at the effect on the city: eg Heart of the City and Universities concern at implications of Wellesley Street busway for public space, safety, operations of organisations and detrimental aesthetic effects, notwithstanding apparent focus on ‘contribution to place’

c.       Concern at impact of diesel buses on city – link to PENAP study findings

d.       Reinforced need for close consultation drawing on what existing learnings – commitment that this will occur before decisions are taken

e.       Auckland Transport must keep an open mind and seriously consider alternative routes. The two universities proposed one alternative to RW and AG at a meeting on Wed 19 Nov. It was simply an example, to demonstrate that there is more than one way to do this.

f.       We need to see the CCFAS (City Centre Future Access Study) II – the updated version

g.       We need to understand the impact on Mayoral Drive

h.       And we need to ask to what degree – if at all – Auckland Transport has considered the impact of the proposed busway on:

i.   The Learning Quarter, as a destination ( a Council strategy)

ii.       Export education (ie, the negative impact on both universities, in terms of place, safety / health, etc)

 

Recommendation/s

That the Auckland City Centre Advisory Board:

a)      discuss the feedback from the workshop held on 26 November 2014.

City Centre Care and Maintenance Update

 

File No.: CP2014/27209

 

Purpose

1.       To update the Auckland City Centre Advisory Board on work underway by Auckland Council and Auckland Transport to address ongoing issues with maintenance of city centre targeted rate funded projects.

Executive Summary

2.       In October 2014 council staff provided the Auckland City Centre Advisory Board with an update on the work underway to address ongoing issues with maintenance of City centre Targeted Rate funded projects. The work will inform an implementation plan for a new integrated cleaning and maintenance delivery model in the City Centre.

3.       Since October 2014, senior management staff from both Auckland Council Solid Wastes, Auckland Council Parks and Auckland Transport have continued to work together to understand:

a.       the range of standards across the city centre, who delivers what and the outcomes they aim to achieve

b.       the streets and spaces to which the standards apply and how much it costs to deliver these standards

c.       whether there is a need to change the standards, where they apply and how they are delivered

d.       the costs of any change needed to improve service and how the changes could be implemented and funded.

4.       Staff will provide a verbal update to the Auckland City Centre Advisory Board on the outcome of the above work at the 17 December 2014 meeting.

5.       The update will also outline the proposed maintenance standards for targeted rate funded projects and the anticipated costs associated with this standard. Staff will seek feedback from the City Centre Advisory Board at the meeting on these standards and this feedback will be used to inform the ongoing development of a ‘City Centre Maintenance Implementation Plan’.

6.       Any new approach to maintenance and cleaning in the City Centre will be incorporated into a new City Centre Maintenance Implementation Plan, which staff will report to the City Centre Advisory Board, Auckland Transport and Auckland Council for endorsement by June 2015.

7.       Staff will continue to update and seek input from the Auckland City Centre Advisory Board on this work on a monthly basis, with the next update scheduled for February 2015.

 

Recommendation/s

That the Auckland City Centre Advisory Board:

a)      receive the Update on City Centre Cleaning and Maintenance report

b)      note that staff will provide a verbal update to the Auckland City Centre Advisory Board on recent work at the 17 December 2014 meeting

c)      note that the update will outline the proposed maintenance standards for targeted rate funded projects and that staff will seek feedback from the Board on these proposed standards to inform the ongoing development of a ‘City Centre Maintenance Implementation Plan’

d)      staff will continue to update and seek input from the Auckland City Centre Advisory Board on a monthly basis, with the next update scheduled for February 2015.
