Executive summary
2. The East Coast Bays Community Creche Incorporated has a community lease which provides for a right of renewal for the period 1 December 2015 until 30 November 2025. The deed of lease did not record the correct legal description of the land or include a site plan.

Comments
Variation of lease and licence to occupy
5. The East Coast Bays Community Creche (the creche) has a community lease entered into with the legacy North Shore City Council for a term of 10 years commencing 1 December 2005 with one 10-year right of renewal. The creche wishes to exercise its right of renewal for the period 1 December 2015 until 30 November 2025.
6. The creche occupies a council-owned building located on part of Browns Bay Village Green, 5 Inverness Road, Browns Bay legally described as Lots 9 and 10 Block ll on Deposited Plan 10801. Both Lots are held in fee simple by Auckland Council as classified local purpose (community buildings) reserve and subject to the Reserves Act 1977. The activity of the creche aligns with the reserve classification.
7. A variation to the community lease document is required to include a site plan which was omitted in 2005 and further, to accurately record Lot 10 Block ll on Deposited Plan 10801 as the legal description of the location of the creche in addition to Lot 9.
8. Creche management requested the allocation of three car spaces to enable it to meet its own civil defence emergency management plan. It is recommended that only one car space be allocated in front of the building by way of a licence to occupy. This is an existing car space constructed in dobie blocks. Auckland Council parks department will install two bollards along the footpath to separate the car space from pedestrians. For pedestrian safety all vehicles using this car space must reverse in. The driveway along the west wall of the creche will be pedestrian access only onto the Browns Bay Village Green with no provision for car parking.
