Developing the Empowered Communities Approach - Next Steps

Resolution number WH/2015/64

MOVED by Member R Manukia-Schaumkel, seconded by Member SPT Matafai:

That the Whau Local Board:

a) Notes that Local boards have a statutory role of community engagement, consultation and advocacy which is also embedded in the Allocation of decision making responsibility for non-regulatory activities as this provides for local boards decision making role in local community development activities.

a) Supports the intent of the Mayor’s Proposal for the Long Term Plan 2015-2025 to develop a more empowered community approach to the work of Auckland Council through a move away from direct delivery (and therefore save overheads) and fund community groups to deliver more and for local boards to play a much more active role by allocating more funding through them.

b) Supports the Thriving Communities action plan which sets out to create an enabling council implementing a community-led approach and reducing bureaucratic barriers and in so doing help empower local boards so as they in turn can empower communities in a way that suits the area.

c) At this stage notes that the level of resourcing for the Empowered Community Approach is unclear and as a result it is not possible to reach a position as to whether or not the proposal can be supported or not.

d) Requests that staff provide information about funding of the proposed approach, which identifies the total budget for Community Development and Safety, regional and local operating costs, potential funding that can be reallocated to local delivery and details on the functions and roles and those involved with implementing the approach.

e) Highlights that inadequate funding for the Empowered Communities Approach increases the risks inherent in any change of this nature, which may in turn hinder implementation.

f) Understands that the Political Advisory Group has extended discussion on the Empowered Communities Approach and therefore requests a new timeframe be provided identifying when further formal feedback by local boards will be sought on what emerges from these discussions.

g) Wishes to emphasise that one size does not fit all and the approach must accommodate local requirements, not limit local options and provide for flexibility in resourcing and models adopted for local delivery. It needs to take into account the wide variety of communities and their capacity, be responsive and support Maori in achieving their outcomes and be culturally attuned.

h) As the purpose of the Empowered Communities Approach is to develop a new more effective and empowering approach to the way council delivers services and supports community activity there is a need for a comprehensive change across the council family and whilst it is recognised there is a need to start somewhere such as Community Development and Safety a programme is required which sets out how this will be extended to other departments.

i) That the Empowered Communities Approach be piloted in various local areas using Local Board Plan outcomes as a guide for such work programmes and the lessons learnt be used to refine and adapt the approach as required.
