Discussion
Activities
undertaken from 2 February to 1 March 2015
This report covers activities undertaken during the period
from Monday 2 February to Sunday 1 March 2015.
Highlighted activities, projects and issues
There are some specific activities, projects and issues
that I wish to highlight; some for board members’ interest and as appropriate,
some for decision.
1 Introduction
The Board has experienced
an extraordinarily busy month last month, with many summer events, Myers
Centenary, Wharf Strategy and Ports debate and the launch of the Long Term Plan
(10-Year Budget), with the beginning of the public consultations and Have Your
Say events.
During this period, Board
members also continued to progress existing and proposed Local Board Plan
priorities and current and proposed Local Board Agreement local projects and
community concerns in their respective portfolio areas, LIPs proposals,
residents, business association and community advocacy, providing input to
regional policies, plans and strategies in workshops and briefings, providing
input into resource and landowner consent matters, and responding to
constituent and media enquiries.
2 Local
Board Office Residents and Ratepayers’ Concerns/Issues
Recent concerns addressed.
· Constituent
concerned about broken fence adjacent to Faro fresh car park Grey Lynn. Would
like fence removed completely. AT and Parks have advised that the fence is not
council property and have advised to get in touch with Faro’s directly. Pippa
Coom in touch with AT to get resolution as fence is on Greenways path.
· Concenrs received from constituent regarding excessive
speeds on Curran Street. AT has installed a feedback sign to tell drivers how
fast they are traveling but the constituent believes it is in the wrong place.
Site visit scheduled for 2nd March.
· Concern received about a car dealership on Great North
Road which is continually illegally parking cars on the pavement and in the bus
stop and behaviour by the business towards the complainant. Issue has been
escalated within AT.
· Concerns from constituent regarding free camping in
Point Erin Car Park. A homeless person has been free camping at Point Erin
Pool, but the car is not parked illegally. New parking restrictions will come
into force soon and AT will work closely with charities to help those living in
the car park.
· Concern from an inner city resident, regarding recent
AT changes around the Britomart area and in particular the increase in
pollution within the area. Forwarded to AT for a response.
· Concerns expressed by Ponsonby Business Association
regarding state of Ponsonby Road footpath and the need for upgrade. Site visit
took place 16 February 2015 to discuss issues and options.
· Enquiring from city centre resident about the old gas
lamps at Myers Park and whether they could be restored and used. Email
forwarded with Parks to see if this would be feasible.
3 Shared Governance Engagement

4 Board Strategies, Policy and Planning Update
4.1 Local Board Chairs’ Forum
The regular Local Board Chairs’ Forum is held on the third Monday of
every month. All Board members receive the agenda and the action points from
the previous meeting when Chairs receive this information.
4.2
Council’s Long Term Plan 2015-25 (10-Year Budget)
Auckland Council's10-year budget is now in the public
feedback stage. This is also known as the long-term plan (LTP)
2015-25.
All councils are required by law to set a 10-year budget
and review it every three years. It covers everything we do and how we pay for
it. This includes services like:
· fixing roads and footpaths
· upgrading our stormwater systems
· transforming Auckland’s town centres.
The previous long-term plan 2012-2022 was largely based on
inherited budgets and projects from the former eight councils.
This budget is the first opportunity to develop a
programme of work based on the priorities of the Auckland Plan; the 30-year
vision for the region, which was adopted in the first term of the council.
Auckland Council aims to create a long-term plan that
achieves balance between the right level of investment in our city’s future and
keeping debt and rates fair and affordable for all Aucklanders.
Auckland is growing quickly,
there is a lot for us to discuss as a city and decide on which is why your
input on regional and local priorities is important. The three main
regional topics of discussion are: transport, housing and rates.
Developing a draft budget
The mayor delivered his proposal for the draft long-term
plan in August.
Since then the Mayor and Councillors have worked with council
staff to develop a 10-year programme of work based on a number of priorities
identified for our region and the mayor’s proposed funding allocations.
In early November the Budget Committee made decisions
regarding what would be included in the draft 10-year budget.
Having your say
All Aucklanders are encouraged to have their say on the
10-year budget. This commenced Friday 23 January and continues until
4pm, 16 March 2015.
During this period there have been a number of ways you
could have your say depending on what suits you, including written, email,
using our online survey, or in person at one of our ‘have your say’
events.
A
consultation document that outlines detailed information on the big issues and
changes included in the budget were made available from 23 January.
The document is available on shapeauckland.co.nz as well as in hard copy at
local board offices, council service centres and libraries.
A document summarising the issues and changes we want your
feedback were delivered to households at the start of consultation. See shapeauckland.co.nz
Our vision for Waitematā is to foster vibrant, connected, healthy
and thriving communities. Our priorities continue to focus on preserving
our character areas, protecting heritage and enhancing our natural
environment. We strive for an outstanding public transport system and a
people-focused city centre that is easy and safe to walk and cycle around.
We have limited budget and we need your help in working out what needs to
be done first.
What you have told us
Through the consultation process on the Waitematā Local Board
Plan 2014, you told us that the key priorities for Waitematā are to
improve and increase public transport options, pedestrian and cycling
connections; reinforce local character and ensure quality design that embraces
heritage and enhancement of local centres and neighbourhoods; protect
and enhance the natural environment; provide affordable cultural and
community activities and events and increase provision of informal
recreation. From these priorities, we developed initiatives for the next
three years in our local board plan.
What we propose to do
Over the last four years we have delivered some
significant projects, such as the re-development of Victoria Park
skate park, Tepid Baths restoration, installation of Pt
Resolution Bridge, completion of two artificial turfs at Seddon
Fields, refurbishment of Ponsonby’s Studio One Toi Tū and
ongoing restoration of Symonds Street Cemetery.
Council’s shared governance model means local boards make decisions
on local issues, activities and the use of local facilities. Local boards
develop a three-year local board plan as the basis of annual funding
agreements with Council’s governing body (the mayor and the councillors).
Local boards also advocate to the governing body on larger scale
investments, regional programmes and policy issues such as rates.
To keep rates affordable, we need to plan sensibly for the future.
The following key proposals have been prioritised for funding in the
Long-term Plan 2015-2025:
2015/2016
· redevelop Pioneer Women’s and Ellen Melville Hall as a city centre
community hub ($3.6m)
· fund a performance and temporary art installation series ($100k)
· fund local events such as Art in the Dark, Grey Lynn
Festival, Festival Italiano and Parnell Festival of Roses ($120k)
· complete the Weona Coastal Walkway ($1.4m)
· initiate the Newmarket Laneways project ($500k).
2016 – 2025
· fund a restoration and ecological project at Waipapa Stream ($64k)
· complete the development of Newmarket Laneways ($3.5m)
· fund local events, art and culture programmes (approximately $280k
per annum)
· complete the Western Springs Native Bush Restoration
Plan ($150k).
Other proposals
We want to make you aware of some governing body proposals that
will impact on Waitematā and hear from you on projects we should be
advocating for that are currently unfunded.
Governing body proposals
· introduce a city centre residential targeted rate of $57.50 per year
on each city centre residence. This will contribute an additional $800k towards
developing and upgrading amenity in the city centre
· develop a regional Greenways Network Plan to provide safe and high
amenity walking and cycling connections
· the Auckland wide proposal to reduce and standardise library
opening hours would result in reducing opening hours each week by three
hours at Parnell Library, seven hours at Grey Lynn Library, three hours at
Leys Institute and five hours at the Central City Library.
Local board advocacy for unfunded projects
· prioritise sand-carpeting the Auckland Domain sports fields from the
sports field and local park programme budget
· complete the Auckland Cycling Network by 2030 to meet the Auckland
Plan target
· create a wetland in Western Park to mitigate damage from storms
· develop
a Parnell Rail Station.
Have
Your Say Event
The
Have Your Say event in the Waitemata Local Board area occurred on Wednesday 4
March, in the evening, at the Town Hall. It was attended by Pippa Coom, Deborah
Yates, Vernon Tava, and Greg Moyle, as well Councillors Chris Darby, Dick Quax,
Wayne Walker and John Watson, and led by me as Chair. Purpose of this event was
to give people the opportunity to be heard by decision-makers on regional and
local matters, and the Regional Land Transport Plan.
Most
who participated found it useful to input into the process, although numbers
could have been better.
Local Feedback Event
Purpose
of these events was as additional engagement with local communities on local
issues to inform the local board agreements. The following events have occurred

Dog Access Bylaws Review
This year the Waitemata Local Boards is looking at
selected dog access rules in our area and seeking community feedback.
The local board wants to encourage individuals to
express their views on dog access rules at the selected locations in our
community.
This is an informal consultation. If the local board
proposes changes as a result of their surveys, there will be a formal
consultation to discuss those proposed changes in June - July 2015.
This informal consultation opened on Monday March 2
and will close on Sunday March 22, 2015.
Links to an online survey for the local board was
available on www.shapeauckland.co.nz page of Council’s website from March 2
onwards, until the closing date.

Project Updates
5.1 Great
North Road Pohutukawa
A story of how people power took on Auckland
Transport and won. The Board stood with the community to seek Auckland
Transport board support not to proceed with plans in Great North Road to cut
down the 6 heritage Pohutukawa trees, and won. Auckland Transport decided not
to accept the independent hearing panel's recommendation to proceed with a
second slip lane that involves the cutting down of the tress. Another way will
be found. That's what we said should happen all along. Well done Patrick
Reynolds, Jolisa Gracewood, Christine Rose and Tricia Reade for your community
advocacy. Well done Lester Levy, Clr Mike Lee and the AT board.
Attached
and marked as Attachment A is my presentation on behalf of the Board.
Thanks to Pippa Coom in particular for her hard work on this matter.
See also my March Ponsonby News column for the full
background story.
5.2 Parnell Train Station
Parnell
Station passed two significant milestones in February. Approval from the
Parks, Recreation and Sports Committee for construction access and works within
the Domain, and funding approval from the Auckland Transport Board on a
streamlined project, now without an overbridge to the Domain, to enable the
Parnell Station to be built.
The heritage
building that was the old Newmarket train station building, built in 2008, and
put into storage a century later in 2008, after a fight by many to save it,
will be reinstated as the Parnell Station building, sitting right in the
Parnell Heritage Quarter.
The final point
of risk; namely negotiations with Kiwirail over access to the site now seems to
have been resolved to enable works to be commenced and completed this financial
year. This project that we have long advocated for appears to have passed the
final hurdle.
Works are
otherwise going to plan and the station civil works are expected to be
completed by June 2015.
A heart felt
acknowledgement and congratulations to our Councillor, Mike Lee, who has long
advocated for this project and has done much to assist it over the line. Well
done to the Parnell community for their consistent advocacy, which also helped
make it happen. We as a local board played our part too.
5.3 Ports Issue
It was extremely disappointing to
witness Auckland Council move away from its previous precautionary approach of
non-complying status for Port reclamation to the more enabling fully notified
discretionary status. This is especially so in the face of Ports recently
gaining, on a non-notified basis, planning consent for significant wharf
structure extensions from Bledisloe Wharf, scheduled for construction in April.
Council argues that this is the same zoning as the remainder of the waterfront,
but the end game is evident for all to see with the wharf extensions. Our local
board position remains that any further extensions or reclamations should be
paused until the Ports Study 2 has been completed, and any expansion plans can
be measured against an integrated Auckland Inc. view of the social,
environmental and economic costs and benefits of the Ports and its future
expansion plans.
5.4 Parnell Baths Centenary Book
Sue Monk and Joanna Boileau of Parnell Heritage have
completed the text of the Waitemata Local Board funded Parnell Baths Centenary
book. It is undergoing final checking before design. An accurate timeframe for
publication will be available at that point, with a launch eagerly anticipated
following that. Well done Joanna and Sue.
6 Portfolio Updates

6.1.1 Events Consultation
The Waitemata Local Board based events that Council Events
or ATEED have consulted the local board on, for events occurring since
February, are attached and marked as Attachment B.
6.1.2 Myers Park Centenary
The Local Board funded community
supported 100th birthday celebrations for City Centre Myers Park
took place on Sunday, 15 February 12pm – 4pm. This free event had a large
range of activities for the whole family. Bands, stalls and a food market
as well as children entertainment including a Punch Show by the Auckland Fringe
Festival performers.
The event was preceded by a civic
opening. The event was well attended and
supported by the local community and a great success. Great to have Lucy
Baragwanath, Chair Auckland City Centre Advisory Board, Kate Misa, President K
Rd Business Association, and Sir Douglas Myers, grandson of founder, former
Auckland Mayor, Arthur Myers joined me with speeches celebrating the park
reaching 100 this year and launching the event. Thanks to all involved.
Hopefully
this may be able to become an annual event, with ongoing community support. The
revival of Myers Park as an inner city park has truly begun.
Attached
and marked as Attachment C are my speech notes for the civic opening
6.2 Arts
& Culture
The Arts & Culture sub-Portfolio monthly meeting last met in
2014.
6.2.1 Misery K’Rd Artworks
Tanja McMillan aka Misery and John Oz's 'Twist' and
'Thief' public artworks commissioned and funded by the Waitemata Local Board as a child-friendly arts project were installed and
launched in Beresford Square and in K’Rd outside Rendalls last month in a
lovely blessing. A real treat and
hit with their intended audience; the young people of Auckland.
Attached and
marked as Attachment D are my Chair’s blessing remarks.
6.2.2 Art in a Day
Art in a Day - Amanda Brett's $2,000 1st
Prize winning painting.
Art in a took place on Saturday
21 February. The local board helped with seed funding through its Community
Grants, with TSB Bank as core funder. Artists from the neighbouring suburbs of
Parnell, Newmarket and Grafton came together to show off their talents and
compete for some great prizes. Artists in one day captured the essence of
their chosen suburb through drawing, painting or media. Board member Greg Moyle
was one of the judges of the competition.
Art in a Day – Cr Mike Lee with his
talented wife, Jenny Lee, an entrant with her iconic St Stephens Ave, Parnell
painting – between us on the bench - which picked up a Judges' Commendation.
The
following Saturday was art judging night for Art in a Day. All 50 fabulous
artworks were on display for sale by silent auction at Jubilee Hall in Parnell.
Well done David Haigh for bringing the Italian concept to Parnell and making it
happen. A true community event.
6.2.3 KBA
GASP Mural on Myers Park Caretakers Cottage
The recently completed artwork by artist, GASP and funded
by the K Road Business Association.
Fabulous.
The Background to the caretakers collage with credit to
Edward Bennet of the K Road Business Association.
‘This has been boarded up since a fire in 2005. This
house was remodelled in 1913 when the park was created - it is the only
structure dating from before the period the park was laid out - the other 13
houses were sold for removal. This house probably dates from as early as 1853.
The earliest owner of the land was Baron De Theirry who sold the property to a
Mr Masters around 1848. Masters sold it on to a Mr Dobson in the early 1850s
which is probably when this house was constructed. That would make it the
oldest wooden structure in central Auckland.’
As a local board we have the scoping of the future of the
caretakers collage on the radar as part of Stage II of the Myers Park
redevelopment project. It may make a perfect project for private support and contribution
for its restoration and future community use.
6.2.3 Grey Lynn RSC WWI Centenary Mural
Waitemata Local Board gave $5,000 support under its
Events Portfolio WWI Centenary budget to this project in February.
I had the honour on behalf of the Board of being part of
the blessing and ribbon cutting to launch the fantastic and colourful new 2015
Anzac Day commemorative mural on the Grey Lynn RSC building by local artists
Dan Tippett and DLT (aka Darryl Thompson). The blessing was given by Rev. Mua
Strickson-Pua. The project was completed in good time for Anzac Day. Well done
Grey Lynn RSC.
Local Board support for a project for the community, for
people to learn from, and to enjoy for many years to come.
Attached
and marked as Attachment E are my chair’s speech notes.
6.3 Parks & Open Spaces
· The Parks & Open Space Portfolio last
met 5 February 2015.
6.3.1 Parks Project
Much planning and
preparation for various parks development plans, playground upgrades, and parks
improvements has continued over the period.
Recent months have seen
progress with the following projects, amongst other renewals:
· Point Resolution Taurarua Development Plan. The plan
is scheduled to be brought to the Board for approval in April 2015. Any works
beyond renewals now require budget support.
· Costley Reserve Playground upgrade project.
Construction imminent.
· Coxes Bay Walkway project. Construction imminent.
· Weona-Westmere Coastal Walkway project, including
receiving budget in the draft 2015-25 10-Year Budget to complete the project in
2016. Stage I of site clearance and fencing is scheduled to commence this year.
· Grey Lynn Park Development Plan, including playground
upgrades, and flying fox reinstatement. The draft plan is scheduled to be with
the Board for approval for public consultation in April 2015. Any works beyond
renewals will now require budget support. The Flying Fox reinstatement has
budget support.
· 254 Ponsonby Road civic plaza/park. Community
consultation was competed in 2014. The outcomes of the community consultation
is scheduled to be reported back to the Board in April. A decision on which
option to support will then determine what budget support from the Governing
Body any preferred option will require.
· Western Park Development Plan, including playground upgrade and flying
fox reinstatement, and stormwater wetlands proposal. The draft plan is with the
Board for approval fro public consultation on this month’s agenda. In the
interim the toilet replacement and re-siting has taken place under Council’s
renewals programme. The flying fox reinstatement, some playground replacement,
lighting and pathway renewal can occur under existing renewal budgets, but
further development will require budget support. This development plan once
approved is a priority for the Board going forward.
6.3.2 Other Projects
… and in the meantime, small things keep
happening.
