Orakei Local Board multi-year grants interim accountability and 2016/2017 grant allocation

 

File No.: CP2016/14600

 

  

 

Purpose

1.       The purpose of this report is to present to the Board the interim accountability reports received from the recipients of the 2015/2016 Orakei Local Board multi-year funding grants (approved by the Board at its 5 November 2015 business meeting). The Board is requested to receive the multi-year interim accountability reports and approve the release of the second grant instalments for the 2016/2017 financial year (which were approved at the 5 November 2015 business meeting).   

Executive summary

2.       For 2016/2017 the Ōrākei Local Board set a total of $80,000 for business association support, $35,000 for resident association support and $12,000 for recognised community group support to be distributed to the business associations, residents associations and recognised community groups in the Board area. 

3.       The fourteen recognised groups were asked to submit applications with a detailed work programme listing their initiatives for the local area that supported the Ōrākei Local Board outcomes for the period 1 July 2015 – December 2016. The Board approved funding for these organisations at its November 2015 meeting.

4.       In accordance with the Community Grant Policy, all successful applicants are required to provide interim accountability reports to advise the Board of their achievements with the first grant instalment. The Board is requested to receive these accountabilities and approve the release of the second instalment of the multi-year contract from the 2016/2017 budget. Twelve interim accountabilities have been received; one late application to the resident’s association multi-year grant round and two requests for additional funding have also been received as detailed in the recommendations below. These requests will be funded by the 2016/2017 budget.

Comments

5.       The Ōrākei Local Board resolved to support local residents associations, recognised community groups and business associations through its 2015/2016 budget.

6.       The fourteen applicants were asked to submit a report with a work programme attached detailing their initiatives for the local area that supported the Ōrākei Local Board outcomes for the period 1 July 2015 – December 2016. The Board resolved to support these organisations at its November 2015 meeting.

7.       Accountabilities and three additional requests for funding were received for this business meeting.

8.       One recognised community group did not submit an interim accountability by the deadline.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

9.       Local boards are responsible for the decision-making and allocation of local board community grants. The Ōrākei Local Board is required to fund, part-fund or decline these multi-year grant applications against the local board priorities identified in the local board grant programme.

Māori impact statement

10.     The provision of community grants provides opportunities for all Aucklanders to undertake projects, programmes, activities that benefit a wider range of individuals and groups, including Maori.

Implementation

11.     The allocation of grants to community groups is within the adopted Long Term Plan 2015-2025 and local board agreements.

12.     Following the Ōrākei Local Board allocating funding, Commercial and Finance staff will notify the applicants of the local board decision.

Increased membership

Membership of the RBA is automatic for businesses located within a defined footprint.  As our BID boundary has not changed, there is no opportunity to increase membership of the Remuera Business Association.  Turnover of businesses occurs, but the total number of members is static as new tenants replace businesses that close.

Progressing towards being financially sustainable

The RBA has a fixed income from targeted rates collected by Auckland Council.  We also work with local businesses such as Barfoot & Thompson, Perpetual Guardian and ANZ to sponsor relevant local community events.  This has included sponsorship for White Night in 2015 and 2016 and a Chinese New Year event in 2016.  As many RBA events are 'community focussed' we are very grateful for funding assistance provided by the Orākei Local Board to help create vibrant town centres for residents and businesses.  Please note Bastille Day will take place on 16 July 2016 but funding for this event sits within our 2015/16 financial year.  Photos are from our 2015 event.

The objectives of the Orākei  Market project have been archived:

"Regular market located at the Orākei  Community Centre"

 * Fresh produce  

* Artisan crafts

* Gourmet food 

* Coffee 

* Special exhibit by local artists

* Orākei  musicians provide entertainment for visitors. 

* Attraction for children (e.g. bouncy castle)

Open to ideas from the community for additional stalls to meet their needs; possibly a stand for good quality second hand children's clothing or a sausage sizzle to raise money for a local school

We feel this is a fantastic facility for the whole community; families, young people as well as older visitors. A place where people come to meet friends, enjoy breakfast, listen to music and browse local craft stalls. A place that provide a unique experience to locals, support local businesses and bring the community together.

How are you progressing towards being financially sustainable?

We are being paid for advertising in our newsletter. We have expanded the role of Treasurer to include the responsibilities of a Membership Officer. We are making a concerted effort to get substantially more paid memberships in 2016/17. We are also engaging community volunteers like Impact NPO (https://www.linkedin.com/company/impactnpo), who we spent 20 hours over one weekend developing our database in November 2015 - which resulted in our spending less of our OLB grant funds.

Orākei  Local Board priorities met

Enabling residents and community groups to have a voice. 

We engaged with the community through public meetings, flyers and email communications to inform them of proposals to change the Unitary Plan, successfully lobbied the Council to reverse their bypassing of the agreed public consultation process, and made strong submissions and presentations to the Independent Hearing Panel to represent the views of the community. 

How have you increased membership since July 2015?

We have adopted a higher profile position in the Community with public meetings and activities related to the Unitary Plan in particular. We have also reached out to other organisations within our area to cross-fertilise ideas and consolidate members. We have improved our processes for contacting members, cleaned up our database and generally become a more efficient organisation.

How are you progressing towards being financially sustainable?

We are sustainable for routine things through our membership fees. We rely on Smartygrants to cover major extra-ordinary items which come up from time to time but are relatively unpredictable.

Orākei  Local Board priorities met

The priority we have delivered on is Enabling local residents and communities to have a voice. We achieved this by providing the opportunity for residents to record their views on the protection of the village at our Table in the Bay events. Those views have been collated into a book called Voices which was provided to the Unitary Plan Independent Hearings Panel as part of the SOS submission. Those views were reflected in the evidence we gave before the UPIHP. 

How have you increased membership since July 2015?

We held regular Table in the Bay events outside the ANZ in St Heliers Bay Road on Saturday mornings. We provided information about the Unitary Plan process and that is where people sign up to become members. We also have a sign up form on our website.

How are you progressing towards being financially sustainable?

We have a donation form on our website and a donation box at the Table in the Bay. We take part in community events such as the sandcastle competition and we hold Seminars on heritage topics at the Library. We receive donations at all these events. We had a fundraising drive during the year when we telephoned all our members to ask for donations. The photographs attached show all these events.
