Outcomes of 2014/2015 local
environmental programme
11. In 2014/2015, the Puketāpapa Local
Board allocated one project from their local environment budget line totalling
$12,000 to a project entitled Oakley Creek restoration, to be delivered by the
I&ES department.
12. In addition, the
board allocated funds for two pieces of work to be delivered by I&ES from
their Small Local Improvements Projects (SLIPs) operational budget on 28 August
2014 (resolution number PKTPP/2014/163).
· Oakley Creek Strategy Project – Budget
$22,000
· Stocktake Report: Waste Minimisation
activities in Puketāpapa – Budget $3,500
13. Below
is a summary of the outcomes of these projects for the 2014/2015 financial
year.
Oakley Creek riparian
planting project – $12,000
14. The board
originally allocated $12,000 to an Oakley Creek restoration project, however on
26 February 2015 (resolution number PKTPP/2015/10) the board reallocated $2,000
of the Oakley Creek restoration budget to maintenance of the restored Molley
Green wetland area. This project was administered by the Parks department.
15. Following the
reallocation, the board provided a grant of $9,225.00 to Friends of Oakley
Creek for management and implementation of riparian vegetation enhancement on
the Oakley Creek tributary in Freeland Reserve.
16. The
aim of this project was to undertake the first stages of restoring the mauri of
Oakley Creek, with enhancement of the open stretch of the creek in Freeland
Reserve by planting a selection of native trees, together with some
intermittent groupings of harakeke.
17. The
project also aimed to involve the community in the planting, as a means of
encouraging them to connect with and develop a sense of pride and ownership of
their local reserve and environment, with the intent of further involving them
in future enhancements of the stream and the reserve.
18. Outcomes from
the grant included the following:
· Site preparation by the contractors for the
various planting sites.
· Extra spraying by contractors of a highly
noxious weed - Alligator Weed (Alternanthera philoxeroides), in and along the
stream channel, without any extra cost, as added support for the project.
· Community planting of 300 native plants on
Saturday 25 July 2015, to coincide with the official opening of the new
playground at Turner Reserve. Approximately 15 volunteers, including two
members of the Puketāpapa Local Board and a number
of children, participated in the planting.
· Specimen tree planting of 31 native trees –
carried out by contractors. These trees were also given extra support with wooden
stakes.
19. A more detailed
report on project outcomes - the ‘Friends of Oakley Creek Te Auaunga Report’
can be viewed in attachment A.
Oakley Creek
Strategy Project – $22,000
20. On 28 August
2014, the board allocated $22,000 from the SLIPs operational budget to develop a strategic plan for restoring Te Auaunga Awa-Oakley
Creek within the Puketāpapa
Local Board area (resolution number PKTPP/2014/163).
21. This project
involved the I&ES department supporting the board with the development of
an upper catchment strategy and vision for Te Auaunga Awa-Oakley Creek in
partnership with the following six mana whenua:
· Ngāi Tai Ki Tāmaki
· Ngāti Tamaoho
· Ngāti Te Ata Waiohua
· Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei
· Te Ākitai Waiohua
· Te Kawerau ā Maki
22. To develop this vision and
strategy, hui were held on 13 February 2015, 3 March 2015 and 21 May 2015, with
a field trip on 17 March 2015. The outcomes of the hui included:
· mana
whenua agreeing to partner with the board in development of the strategy,
· defining
the vision,
· determining
the format of the strategy and core content, including the objectives.
23. It was determined that the full
budget could not be spent in the 2014/2015 financial year so approximately
$13,000 of the budget has been carried forward approved so that mana whenua
representatives can continue to attend hui and develop the strategy through to
December 2015.
24. It is anticipated that once the
strategy is developed, implementation of this strategy will take place. Later
in this report it is recommended that a further $20,000 is allocated to a
project to assist in the delivery of this strategy.
Waste Minimisation –
$3,500
25. On 28 August 2014 the board allocated $3,500
from their SLIPs operational budget to a project to consolidate and develop a detailed list of existing
recycling and waste minimisation operations within the Puketāpapa Local Board area to support the implementation of an integrated
resource recovery programme (resolution number PKTPP/2014/163).
26. This
project was delivered on a 50/50 cost basis with funding from both the local
board and regional waste budgets.
27. This project identified at least two community groups, Earth Action
Trust and Mt Roskill Baptist Church, who could be involved in the operation of
a resource recovery centre if implemented.
28. A report on the project can be read in attachment B.
Proposed 2015/2016
Environmental Work Programme
29. The Puketāpapa
Local Board has identified an aspiration in their Local Board
Plan 2014-2017 to achieve ‘vibrant, popular parks and treasured natural
environment.’ To give effect to this aspiration the local
board committed $80,000 in total to local environmental development projects in
their Locally Driven Initiatives (LDI) budget for 2015/2016.
30. The board
allocated this budget into eight main budget lines as shown in Table Three
below.

31. Council staff
met with Member Doig at environmental portfolio holder meetings on 23 July 2015 and 25 August 2015 to discuss
the best allocation of this local environmental development budget and to
develop an environmental work programme for 2015/2016.
32. Based on these
discussions, it is proposed that six projects be delivered by the I&ES
department as part of the board’s environmental work programme in 2015/2016. In particular, it is recommended that the two budget lines of
warrant of fitness rental housing and healthy homes are combined to maximise
the outcomes from the delivery of a project that meets the board’s objective to
‘Develop a strategy to increase uptake of warrant of
fitness housing standards including renovations and insulation.’
33. A brief
description of each of the proposed projects and how they link to the local
board plan objectives is provided in Table Four below.

|
Recommendation/s
That the Puketāpapa Local
Board:
a) make the alcohol bans
recommended to be retained (with any amendments) as contained in Attachment B and C pursuant to the Auckland Council Alcohol Control Bylaw
2014, with a commencement date of 31 October 2015.
b) confirm that
the decisions in a) is in accordance with relevant requirements of the Local
Government Act 2002 and Auckland Council Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014.

Board make a 24 hour, 7 day a week alcohol ban for the area of the Underwood
Reserve alcohol ban in the Albert-Eden Local Board area (Map 9 Attachment C).
d) authorise the
Manager Social Policy and Bylaws to make any minor edits or amendments to
Attachments B and C to correct any identified errors or typographical edits.
e) seek
amendments to Alcohol Ban Area Maps 1 and 7 to include Keystone Avenue

|
Background
9. Alcohol bans are an accepted and
effective way of helping to reduce alcohol-related harm. They reduce the amount
of alcohol consumed in public places. This helps to reduce harm including
levels of intoxication, noise, litter, harm and disorder.
10. Alcohol bans prohibit the
consumption of alcohol in public places and are enforced by the New Zealand
Police using powers of search, seizure, and arrest. Penalties include an infringement
fee of $250.
11. Recent changes to legislation
require a review of existing alcohol bans against a new, higher threshold. This
means that alcohol bans can only be retained in areas displaying high levels of
alcohol-related crime or disorder.
12. Alcohol bans are made under the
Auckland Council Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014, and local boards have the delegated
responsibility to review existing local alcohol bans in their local board areas
by 31 October 2015. This does not include a review of existing alcohol bans in
areas of regional significance, which is the responsibility of the Regulatory
and Bylaws Committee, nor consideration of new alcohol bans, which will be
subject to a separate process (commencing after 31 October 2015)..
Proposal
13. The Puketāpapa Local Board, at its business meeting on the 28
May 2015 (resolution number PKTPP/2015/92), adopted for public engagement a proposal to:
a) retain 25 existing
alcohol bans
b) lapse 56 existing alcohol bans unless sufficient evidence is
provided through the public submission process.
14. The
public engagement period opened on 19 June and closed 17 July 2015.
15. The proposed changes were
notified as follows:
a) a public
notice in the New Zealand Herald
b) on the
Auckland Council website
c) in the June and
July local editions of Our Auckland.
16. Additional communication and
engagement activities were undertaken as follows:
a) a flyer drop
to all households in the local board area
b) through
social media, including Facebook, and Neighbourly
c) email to local board stakeholders
d) notification to the Puketāpapa Youth Caucus.
17. All
supporting documents were made available on council’s website and through local
libraries and service centres.
18. A total of 60
submitters gave evidence for 71 alcohol ban areas. Forty-three submitters gave
general feedback not specific to an alcohol ban area
Hearing and
deliberations process
19. The Puketāpapa Local Board appointed a hearing panel, Member
Wood (as chair), and members Doig, Kumar and local board chair person Fairey to
receive, hear and deliberate on submissions and other relevant information and
make recommendations to the local board (resolution number PKTPP/2015/92).
20. A total of 14 submitters
indicated they wished to be heard. The hearing panel heard from nine submitters on 12 August 2015 and held
deliberations on all written and oral submissions on 2 September 2015.
21. Copies of all submissions received were made
publicly available.
22. In conducting hearings and making decisions, the hearings panel considered
a range of the statutory and bylaw requirements, summarised in Attachment A. The most important requirements outlined in the bylaw are:
a) evidence that the alcohol
ban area has experienced a high level of crime or disorder that can be shown to
have been caused or made worse by alcohol consumption in the area
b) that the alcohol ban is
appropriate and proportionate in the light of the evidence and can be justified
as a reasonable limitation on people's rights and freedoms
c) consideration of community-focused
solutions as an alternative to or to complement an alcohol ban
d) consideration of the views
of owners, occupiers, or persons that council has reason to believe are
representative of the interests of owners or occupiers, of premises within the area to which the alcohol ban will apply
e) consideration of using one
of the following times for consistency:
i) 24
hours, 7 days a week (at all times alcohol ban)
ii) 7pm
to 7am daily (evening alcohol ban)
iii) 10pm
to 7am daylight saving and 7pm to 7am outside daylight saving (night time
alcohol ban)
iv) 7pm
on the day before to 7am on the day after any weekend, public holiday or
Christmas/New Year holiday period (weekend and holiday alcohol ban).
Comments
23. The decisions of
the hearing panel (including any amendments to areas and times) and summary of
the evidence considered are contained in Attachment B and maps are
provided in Attachment C.
24. In coming to a
decision, the panel reviewed the evidence gathered for existing alcohol ban
areas in the Puketapapa Local Board area. It noted that a degree of evidence
had been supplied for every area. Feedback to the panel came both from written
submissions and from the hearing, where evidence was heard from the Police,
Neighborhood Support, Mt Roskill Community Patrol and community members. The
panel’s considerations are noted in detail in the minutes from the deliberation
meeting.
25. In considering
the range of evidence, the panel noted that the minimum included non-specific
examples of young people drinking day and night with instances of intimidating
behavior. At the higher end of the evidence spectrum, multiple incidents of
alcohol related crime and disorder were cited. The Police and community safety
organisations also cited evidence of harm displacement, resulting from
enforcement.
26. The panel was
satisfied that there is evidence of alcohol related crime and disorder
throughout the whole local board area. Whilst the level of evidence that has
come through during consultation appears to be more significant in some parks
than in others, the weight of the evidence overall across the network of local
parks and reserves is strong and warrants taking a network approach
27. Given the
pattern of evidence, the linked up nature of many of the reserves and the potential
for displacement that has been highlighted by the community and police, the
panel has decided to adopt a network approach.
28. The key
recommendations of the panel are that 76 alcohol bans
meet the new higher statutory threshold and should be retained.
29. As part of its
decisions, the panel:
a) retained 69
areas that did not require geographical amendments. Times were amended to
ensure the operative times are aligned with regional standards, and where
necessary, proportionate and appropriate in light of the crime or disorder. Twelve alcohol ban
areas, listed in Attachment C, were extended to a 24 hour 7 day a week ban.
b) extended the
geographical areas of four alcohol bans (there is sufficient evidence of
alcohol-related crime or disorder to support the extended areas). These area as
follows:
i) Taylors Bay
Road Reserve (extended to include beach and foreshore area and Bluff Terrace)
ii) Fearon Park
(extended to include the entire park area)
iii) Monte
Cecilia Park (extended to include the Monte Cecilia School grounds)
iv) Three Kings
(extended to align with the management plan for the area)
v) Hillsborough
Cemetary (inclusion of Clifton Road)
vi) Fearon Park
and Mt Roskill Town Centre (inclusion of Keystone Avenue)
c) subsumed
Hillsborough Cemetery 1 and 2 into a new alcohol ban called Hillsborough
Cemetery that includes Clifford Road.
d) subsumed
Hillsborough Reserve 1 and 2 into a new alcohol ban called Hillsborough
Reserve.
e) subsumed the
Waikowhai Park Island and Waikowhai Park into a new ban area called Waikowhai
Park.
30. As part of its
decisions, the panel noted in response to submissions that:
a) Lynfield
Plantation is already covered by the Lynfield Reserve alcohol ban.
b) Wesley Community
Centre (incorrectly called Mount Roskill Community Centre in some material) is
within the area of the War Memorial Park (including Wesley Community Centre,
Roskill Youth Zone and associated car parks).
31. The decision
required of the local board is whether to approve the recommendations of the
hearing panel.
Consideration
Local
Board views and implications
32. Since the
commencement of the review in November 2014 the local board at workshops has
been presented with the statutory decision making requirements, review process
options, and pre-public engagement process evidence to assist the local board
in making decisions on which current alcohol bans will be retained after
31 October 2015.
Māori
impact statement
33. Managing alcohol related harm associated with people consuming
alcohol in public places increases opportunities for health and wellbeing,
which is consistent with the outcomes of the Māori Plan for Tāmaki
Makaurau.
34. Feedback
received from mana whenua representatives at hui held in March 2015 supported
alcohol bans in principle, and believe that non-regulatory approaches should be
considered to help reduce alcohol-related harm
Implementation
35. Any decision on
current alcohol bans to be retained or lapsed will
require an update to the register of local alcohol bans and to signage.
The updating of signage will be coordinated through the Integrated Bylaw Review
and Implementation programme.
