Allocation of discretionary capital budget to local boards
|
|
|
Resolution number MR/2015/155
MOVED
by Chairperson AM Dalton, seconded by Member GW Hawkins:
That
the Manurewa Local Board:
a)
provide the following feedback
on the allocation of Capital expenditure (Capex) funding to local boards:
i)
option E is
favoured, ie: Great
Barrier receives 1% and Waiheke receives 2% of total funds, remaining funds
allocated to all other boards based on 90% population, 5% deprivation and 5 %
land area.
ii)
retain the option
to fund consequential operational expenditure (opex) of capital projects from
the LDI (noting: the 16 July 2015 workshop notes misrecorded the board’s
preferences).
iii)
support the ability
to accumulate the fund over a three year period with the option for
accumulation over a greater period on approval from governing body. The
board felt it had to be agreed with the departments as to whether they could
deliver the project.
iv)
boards should be
able to use the capital expenditure (capex) fund allocation to bring forward
regionally funded projects if they wish.
v)
the capital
expenditure fund could be used to look for partnership opportunities with the
community.
vi)
boards should have maximum flexibility when considering how
to use the capital expenditure fund.
