Resolution number OP/2015/198 MOVED by Chairperson E Collins, seconded by Member MA Gush: That the Ōtara-Papatoetoe Local Board: a) provides these views on regional issues for the Governing Body to consider: i) Uniform Annual General Charge (UAGC): the board supports retaining the UAGC at its current level, to stabilise the rates in the coming year, and asks that there be no consultation on proposed changes. ii) Interim Transport Levy (ITL): the board supports retaining the ITL as a uniform charge on residential and business ratepayers at the current levels, and asks that there be no consultation on proposed changes. The board opposes levying the ITL based on rateable value because values do not reflect the traffic generation impacts of a business. iii) Maori land rates: the board supports consultation on changes to the remissions policy as proposed by the Governing Body. iv) Rural rates: the board supports consultation on the proposal to reduce rates on large rural properties and multiple titles managed as one property, but suggests a smaller area that 50ha should be the threshold. b) request the Governing Body to continue the swimming pool targeted rate in 2016/17 unchanged from 2015/16, i.e. $28.86 per household, and notes that an unchanged rate does not require consultation in the Annual Plan process. c) delegate to the Chair to present the board’s advocacy items to the Governing Body, highlighting these issues: i) ongoing annual funding of Colin Dale Park development ($280,000 per annum consequential opex) out of the board’s Locally Driven Initiatives budget, severely reducing the board ability to support local place making and community-led development; ii) the need to develop and improve the local area’s sports facilities and playing fields including, Papatoetoe Recreation Grounds, Kingswood Reserve, Kohuora Park, Te Puke o Tara Park, Ngati Otara Park, Manukau Sports Bowl and Aorere Park. iii) in relation to District Licensing Committees: · appoint members of District Licensing Committees who better reflect and are more representative of local communities. · consider a localised District Licensing Committee model to operate in southern urban local board areas, replacing the existing regional District Licensing Committee model. · commission an independent practitioner to review all District Licensing Committee decisions and recommendations, in order to improve the consistency of District Licensing Committee decisions. · action a review to whether District Licensing Committee decisions have resulted in worse outcomes than if the former Alcohol Regulatory and Licensing Authority (ARLA) had remained the decision maker, in failing to produce safer and more responsible sale, supply and consumption of alcohol, or to minimise harm caused by excessive or inappropriate consumption of alcohol. |
