Maori
Impact Statement
15. Parks
and open spaces contribute significantly to Maori well-being, values, culture
and traditions. Where any aspects of the proposed work programme are
anticipated to have a significant impact on sites of importance to Tangata
Whenua, appropriate consultation will follow.
General
16. Communities
are impacted by LIPs projects. They provide an opportunity for staff and
elected representatives to engage with the communities on their specific
needs. LIPs staff will liaise directly with all residents and stakeholders
impacted by any discretionary funded projects to be delivered.
17. Funding
for the proposed projects within this report would be obtained from the
Waitemata Local Board’s Local Improvement Project budget allocation. After
allocating budget to all the projects listed in this report and elsewhere, the
Waitemata Local Board will still have LIPs capital and operational funding
remaining unallocated. Further reporting as part of the monthly work programme
reporting will be used to determine what other projects the board may wish to
fund.
18. LIPs
funded projects must comply with all relevant legislation, including the
Resource Management Act 1991, the Local Government Act and all Auckland Council
policies.
Implementation
Issues
19. Most
projects will need eight months or more to be successfully delivered within the
2014/2015 financial year. Projects that have budget allocated to them with less
than six months remaining within the current financial year will be at risk of
not being completed by 2014/2015 financial year end. .
20. Budgets for projects funded from 2014/2015 LIPs operational
expenditure must be fully expended within the 2014/2015 financial year.
21. Budgets for projects funded from 2014/2015 LIPs capital expenditure
must be fully expended within the 2014/2015 financial year.
22. The ability to spend and deliver outcomes is dependent upon the
timely decisions regarding budget allocation and scope variations by the
Waitemata Local Board.
