Apllications for landowner approval for street traders in Ostend Domain on Waiheke Island

File No.: CP2016/23235

Purpose

1. To request land owner approval for street trading applications in Ostend Domain on Waiheke Island.

Executive summary

2. Between July and November 2016 council has received a number of applications for landowner approval to trade in reserves across the island.

3. After assessing these applications, the parks adviser is recommending that landowner approval be given to four applications to sell food in Ostend Domain - see Attachment 3.

4. The applicants aim to sell high-quality, locally sourced food, they will take responsibility for their own waste. Their vehicles, their food and their operators will reflect the creativity and diversity of the Waiheke Community. As such they are expected to be of benefit to the local community and to increase the use of the reserve.

Recommendation/s

That the Waiheke Local Board:

a) grants 12 month land owner approval to sell food in Ostend Domain to;

i) Remi Sandoy – gourmet burgers trailer

ii) Barbara Chevaldin – rottiserie roast meats food van

iii) Denis Brauner – ‘thirteen’ takeaway bistro trailer

iv) Ruben Bermejo – ‘Mediterraneo’ paella and tortilla food van

b) That the approvals be conditional on:

i) Responsibility for their own mains power (generators will not be allowed).

ii) A requirement to minimise waste to landfill from their operation

iii) A responsibility to remove all waste that they have produced from the reserve, including that left by customers.

iv) A requirement for all vehicles to be registered and warranted and to be able to be moved from the reserve at 12 hours’ notice.

v) A requirement that all materials and equipment shall be stored in vehicles and not on the reserve.

vi) A requirement that any signage comply with the relevant Auckland Council bylaw provisions.

vii) A full review of the benefits and impact of street trading in the reserve before 1 October 2017.

Comments

5. Applicants wishing to undertake commercial trading on Council’s local and sports parks are required to lodge a street trading application – which allows them to trade in a public place.

6. Where the location is within a park, they also require approval of the location and the activity from parks. The local and sports parks advisor undertakes a landowner approval assessment and prepares a recommendation. The parks advisor consults the Local Board Parks Portfolio holder to determine whether officer delegation can be used, or if matters need to be reported to the full local board for a decision.

7. At a parks spokespersons’ meeting in July 2016 the Waiheke Local Board Parks Portfolio holders requested that these land owner approvals for street trading in parks on Waiheke be reported to a local board meeting for a decision.

8. There are currently three traders who have landowner approval to trade in Ostend Domain – The Coffee Cart, The Burger Bar and Juice Revolution. These traders are located near the tennis courts in the entrance to the car park on the reserve, on the inland side of The Causeway – see Attachment 1 – current location of street traders within Ostend Reserve

9. Ostend Domain is currently being improved through the upgrade of the boat club wash-down area, the renewal of the playground, the creation of a concrete path through the reserve and the installation of a public seat made from the prow of a historic boat – the Santa Lucia.

10. As part of the upgrade work, the area on the coastal side of The Causeway alongside the Boat Club wash-down area is set aside for an outdoor food court with a number of street traders gathered around the prow of the Santa Lucia and a central dining area within the reserve. This concept is shown in Attachment 2 - proposed location of outdoor food court for street traders – Ostend Domain.

11. This outdoor food court will attract people passing in cars to stop and visit the reserve. It will also encourage playground users and locals to stay longer in the reserve. It is more than 500m by road from the nearest café and takeaway businesses.

12. It is proposed that once the work on the Boat Club hardstand allows (preferably pre Xmas 2016), all traders within Ostend Domain will move to this area. Until that time, all traders with Land Owner approval can operate from the car park area shown in Attachment 1.

13. Standard conditions will ensure that applicants are able to operate successfully in a way that meets the local board’s needs and works for the community.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

14. The Waiheke Local Board has invested in Ostend Domain to encourage people to use the reserve, particularly the coastal edge of the reserve on the seaward side of The Causeway. Street traders are expected to increase the number of people stopping at the reserve and increase the amount of time people spend in the reserve.

Māori impact statement

15. Mana whenua have been consulted on the developments at Ostend Domain and they have expressed no concern over the issuing of street trading licenses.

Implementation

16. Once applicants have land owner approval they will apply for a street trading licence which will formally document any conditions of approval.

17. Applicants will also have to comply with relevant Food hygiene and bylaw conditions.

18. Land owner approvals will be effective for 12 months from 1 December 2016. Street traders will be encouraged to collaborate and to self-manage the layout of the area and power supply.

19. The reserve will be monitored by the local parks maintenance delivery co-ordinator. Any issues will be reported through the call centre and followed up by the street trading team or appropriate parks staff. A formal review should be requested before land owner approvals are approved for the period 1 December 2017 onwards.

Phases one and two

11. Regular updates to the board have been provided by Direction Matiatia and the project manager, Business Lab, during phases one and two.

12. The attached report outlines a summary of the progress to date, details on stakeholder engagement, findings and recommendations.

Phases three to six

13. Key areas for phase three to six will be include progressing discussions with Ngati Paoa, engaging specialists such as planning and traffic design experts, developing business cases for identified projects and consultation.

14. The preference is for internal council and CCO teams to substantively resource the development of the plan, but confirmation of this is still required from the internal stakeholders.

15. It is estimated the plan will be ready for approval by April 2017 following robust public and stakeholder consultation at the various stages.

16. Proposed projects can then to feed into the 2017 Waiheke Local Board Plan and Auckland Council’s 2018-2025 Long Term Plan processes.

This also includes part phase three due to timeframes (facilitation of the Values Proposition workshop held 10 November). The budget remaining is $5,808.

19. There is probability that $4,518 will be able to be claimed back from GST, which will result in a balance remaining to be utilized for phases three to six of $10,326.

20. This report is recommending allocation of up to $40,000 additional LDI budget to Direction Matiatia to complete Phases three to six of the Matiatia planning project.

21. It is difficult to predict exact costs but an allocation up to this amount will provide sufficient funds if required, but will not be expended if not required. This may cover specialist consultancy work, surveying, design and concept planning, engagement, testing of ideas, public consultation, mana whenua costs, meeting logistics, contingency, etc.

File No.: CP2016/23212

Purpose

1. To provide the Waiheke Local Board members with an integrated quarterly performance report for quarter one 2016/17, against the Local Board Agreement work programme.

Executive summary

2. This report is the first in a new format, to provide an integrated view of performance for the Waiheke Local Board, including; financial performance, progress against local board key performance indicators, progress against each operating department work programme, key challenges the board should be aware of and any risks associated with delayed delivery against the Waiheke Local Board 2016/17 Work Programme.

3. Of significance this quarter is the reallocation of the Onetangi Backpackers from Panuku Development Auckland to a local facility managed by Community Facilities. There is substantial work required to bring the building up to compliance. The project has been given priority status by the department to enable an opening by 1 December 2016.

Comments

Key Achievements for Quarter One

8. The Waiheke Local Board has a number of key achievements to report from the quarter one period, which include:

· Library visits to Waiheke Library have increased by 15% compared to the same quarter last year. This is considerably higher than the regional trend and reflects the popularity and versatility of the space for locals and visitors to the island;

· Onetangi Backpackers – during this quarter the board has been successful in reallocating the backpackers from Panuku Development Auckland back to a local facility. There is substantial works required to bring the building up to a compliant standard, as well as a suitable fit-out to provide accommodation. Community facilities have given the project priority status and are working towards an opening date of 1 December 2016;

· The Matiatia Strategic planning project (FY16) continues in this quarter. Project management meetings have been held to determine timeframes and a public information session was held 13 September 2016. A report summarising work carried out, including key findings from the literature search, stakeholder interviews and workshops together with recommendations on areas of focus is due in quarter two;

· Ostend Reserve boat wash area hardstand, footpath and seawall project being delivered by the Waiheke Boating Club under the empowered communities model commenced during this quarter (carried over from FY16). The project is progressing well alongside the renewal of the Ostend Domain playground;

· The design of the Te Atawhai Whenua walking track upgrade, delivered by the Forest and Bird under the empowered communities model, was approved during this quarter. Construction of the track is due to commence in quarter two.

Key Project updates from the 2016/17 Work Programme

9. All operating departments with an approved 2016/17 Work Programme have provided performance report updates via SharePoint for quarter one (Appendix A). The following are progress updates against key projects identified in the Local Board Plan:

· The Waiheke Community Art Gallery funding agreement was executed during this quarter. Over that period the Art Gallery hosted eight exhibitions, including a show featuring work by 95 Waiheke-based artists and an exhibition by students from Waiheke High School.

· The Artworks Theatre funding agreement was also executed. Productions included ‘Yours Truly’ by Albert Belz as part of Matariki Festival. The theatre had 5,500 visitors during Q1.

· Round One quick response and local grants complete, allocating a total of $12,666 leaving a total of $27,334 for the remaining grant rounds.

Risks identified in the 2016/17 Work Programme

10. There were no areas identified as risks (significantly behind budget/time or achievement of outcomes) by operating departments during this quarter.

Financial Performance

11. The capital programme has started well with $335k spent in the first quarter. Parks asset renewals has seen a spend of $117k to the end of September including $34k of paving renewals, $33k of walkway design work, $13k of structure renewals and $7k on the Ostend Domain play space. Local improvements projects had a spend of $100k in the first quarter which related to the Ostend Domain seawall construction. There is Locally Driven Initiative Capex funding still to be allocated by the local board this year and these projects will need to be factored into the work programmes going forward.

12. The operating net cost of service is tracking close to budget with total revenue also tracking right in line with budget for the quarter. $1.1m operating expenditure has been spent during this quarter.

Key Performance Indicators

13. Key performance indicators for the Local Parks Sports and Recreation department has identified one target that is not on track to achieve end of year targets. The following provides some commentary on this result:

14. Percentage of residents satisfied with the provision (quality, location and distribution) of sports fields (target 70%, result 62%):

· Sports fields in the local board area are mainly soil fields, which in winter provide a lower surface quality than sand carpet, artificial or hybrid. We have a programme of work to address quantity of sports fields, but we are looking at ways to also improve the quality of surfaces and playing conditions.

15. Key performance indicators for the Local Community Services department has identified five targets that are not on track to achieve end of year targets. The following provides some commentary on these results:

16. Percentage of funding/grant applicants satisfied with information, assistance and advice provided (target 75%, result 43%):

· FY16 was the first year of implementing the new community funding policy, which also saw the establishment of a dedicated funding hub. Funding hub members also worked closely with subject matter experts to reach relevant communities. A series of community workshops is planned for FY17 to build community groups’ capacity to submit quality applications and to provide further advice to applicants

17. Percentage of Aucklanders that feel connected to their neighbourhood and local community (target 80%, result 68%):

· People may not be feeling connected for a variety of reasons, including being new to the area, being too busy or preferring not to be connected. To a lesser extent there may also be lack of awareness about how to access activities that could contribute to feeling connected, and language and cultural barriers. A number of our activities such as arts programmes, community facility programmes and events seek to connect Aucklanders to their local communities. The empowered communities approach being implemented across these activities in FY17 aims to increase this.

18. Percentage of attendees satisfied with council delivered and funded local events (target 85%, result 77%):

· This measure aims to survey at least two events annually for each local board area to assess attendees’ views on a sample of events provided or funded by the council. Each year different events are selected to be surveyed, and as this decision has not been made yet, it makes it difficult to establish a forecast. However, if performance remains consistent with the previous year then the target will not be met. Feedback received from the previous year will be used to improve this result.
The outlook has been based on last year’s result. This year's result will depend on what events are delivered, what events are selected for survey, the weather conditions, turn out and facilitation.

19. Facility Utilisation - utilisation at peak times and off-peak times for council managed community centres and venues for hire – both peak and off-peak targets were not reached (peak target 13%, result 13%; off-peak target 8%, result 3%)

· The FY17 Q1 result is based on two months of actual data and one month of estimates. Peak utlisation has slightly increased on the same period last year. A regular hirer is expected to start using Surfdale Hall in Q2. The digital booking system, which began recording bookings in FY17 Q1, is expected to improve customer experience and utilisation, along with a marketing campaign in Q2

20. Key performance indicators for the Local Environmental Management department has identified one target that is not on track to achieve end of year targets. The following provides some commentary on this result:

21. At the time of reporting close, scope for one project had not been confirmed with the board, creating a risk of non-delivery. The project scope has since been confirmed and the project is on track.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

22. This report informs the Waiheke Local Board of the performance to date for the period ending 30 September 2016.

Māori impact statement

23. The Matiatia planning project is progressing in partnership with Ngati Paoa representatives.

The Cultural Values Assessment for Matiatia (prepared by Ngati Paoa Iwi Trust for the council) is a key document in this process.

24. The Waiheke Community Art Gallery is developing its relationship with Piritahi Marae, seeking a name for the facility. The name ‘Te Whare Taonga o Waiheke’ is to be gifted to the gallery by mana whenua and tangata whenua.

25. Investigation on possible projects for the Maori outcomes and events budget will continue with mana whenua and Piritahi marae during quarter two.

Implementation

26. The Senior Advisor Waiheke Local Board will continue to facilitate performance updates to the local board.

Waiheke Local Board

24 November 2016

Onetangi Beach Polo event

File No.: CP2016/23096

Purpose

1. Seeking the Waiheke Local Board’s feedback on the proposed Beach Polo Event on 25 February 2017 and considering the board’s support for an alternative date.

Executive summary

2. The board has received notification for a proposed event for a Waiheke Beach Polo event at Onetangi Beach on 25 February 2017 (rain date 11 March 2017).

Recommendation/s

That the Waiheke Local Board:

a) Do not support the Beach Polo Event being held on 25 February 2017 at Onetangi Beach.

b) Consider support for an alternative date for the Beach Polo Event in its current form.

c) Consider the development of guidelines for future events on public space.

Comments

Proposed Beach Polo Event

3. The board has received notification for a proposed event for a Waiheke Beach Polo event at Onetangi Beach on 25 February 2017 (rain date 11 March 2017).

4. The proposal is for this to be a free event open to the public with a ticketed / VIP marquee for approximately 300 people.

5. Proposed on site operations on Onetangi Beach (see figure 1) will include:

Beach Polo:

· Exhibition matches

· Field is 90m x 45m

· Games consist of two three player teams

· Open for public to watch

VIP tent:

· 54m x 10m

· 260 chairs

· 300 guests

· Alcohol available

· Catered

· Trestle tables & bean bags TBC

Figure 1

6. The board and relevant Auckland Council departments have the opportunity to provide feedback in regards to this event. Local and sports Parks department have advised sand dune protection would be required, including:

· Corflute dune protection signs to be in place

· Dune protection fence is located 1.0M from the edge of the grasses

Board feedback on this event to date

7. Another form of the event was originally proposed for 24 March 2017 and included a road closure for ticketed tables. The board met with the organiser on 22 September and indicated a full road closure for a commercial event would not be supported by the board.

8. The board suggested using private property rather than beach/open space land and/or enabling the event to be an exhibition game (all free to the public).

9. They also noted concern about the impact on the community and residents of restricting beach access and local cafes.

10. The board suggested the organisers liaise with the Onetangi Beach Races and other stakeholders to see if it would be viable to share resources.

Onetangi Beach Races

11. The Onetangi Beach Races Society has confirmed they do not support the Beach Polo event being held on 25 February 2017, the day before the Onetangi Beach Races.

12. This is due to the event possibly compromising the success of the beach races, which is funded by the Local Board and a key event supported by the community. It was deemed having both events on the same weekend would be too high an impact for the residents and community.

13. The board therefore have declined support for the Onetangi Beach Polo event being held on 25 February 2017, the day before the Onetangi Beach Races.

Future events

14. The board is supportive of events such as the Onetangi Beach Races, which are free to the public and are run on behalf of the community and in partnership with the board and rely on volunteerism and local support to make it a success.

15. The council often receives requests for event permits on public land which will restrict public access. A permit is required for all events (community, profit-making and private events such as weddings) where there is:

· Over 50 people;

· Use of the public space for over 2 hours;

· Use of structures.

16. The board has indicated that large events that impact public accessibility should be given proper informed consideration in public forum. This would enable any interested members of the public to voice their concerns and will inform the board’s feedback.

17. Given the prevalence of event requests for Waiheke, the board may also like to consider determining guidelines which can be provided to event organisers and council departments to guide future event proposals.

18. Possible guidelines for profit-making events on public land might include:

· Collaboration and support of local businesses, stakeholders and community groups;

· Zero waste event;

· Supports local procurement;

· Accessible to the community;

· Limitations on size or scale;

· Agreed identified locations.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

19. The board have provided feedback to the events team during the workshop held 22 September 2016 and in subsequent emails.

Māori impact statement

20. Mana whenua engagement is included under the event permit process.

Implementation

21. Following board consideration of the recommendations within this report, the events team will liaise with the event organiser.

Waiheke Local Board

24 November 2016

Community Service Awards and Volunteers Day

File No.: CP2016/23154

Purpose

1. Seeking the Waiheke Local Board’s (the board’s) approval to grant $800 to the Waiheke Island Council of Social Services (WICOSS) to support delivery of the annual Volunteers Dinner, and allocate $1,200 for delivery of the Community Service Awards.

Executive Summary

2. The board have $2,000 within their 2016/2017 budgets to support recognition of volunteers on the island and they have historically provided funding to WICOSS to support their annual Waiheke Volunteers Dinner in recognition of the contribution volunteers make on the island.

3. In 2014/2015 the board granted funding of $2,500 to WICOSS to deliver the Waiheke Island Community Service Awards in conjunction with the Volunteers Dinner. The event was very successful, however feedback concluded that combining the awards and the dinner wasn’t ideal.

4. It is therefore recommended that $800 be granted to WICOSS to support the Waiheke Volunteers Dinner in December 2016, and the remaining $1,200 be utilised for a Community Service Awards in May / April next year.

Recommendation/s

That the Waiheke Local Board:

a) Grant $800 from the 2016/2017 Volunteers Day LDI (Locally Driven Initiatives) budget to the Waiheke Island Council of Social Services to support the delivery of a Volunteers Dinner in December 2016.

b) Allocate $1,200 from the 2016/2017 Volunteers Day LDI (Locally Driven Initiatives) budget to deliver the Community Service Awards in March / April 2017.

c) Delegate board member XYZ to work with officers to finalise the Community Service Awards objectives and criteria, and determine the selection panel to review applications and make decisions.

5. The board have $2,000 within their 2016/2017 Locally Driven Initiatives (LDI) budget allocated to recognise the work of volunteers.

6. The Waiheke Island Council of Social Services organises an annual Volunteers Dinner in recognition of the contribution volunteers make to the island. The local board has historically provided funding to WICOSS in support of this event.

7. Last year the board granted funding of $2,500 to WICOSS to organise the Outstanding Community Service Awards in conjunction with the Volunteers Dinner. This award is to recognise voluntary effort which benefits individuals and / or communities within the Waiheke Local Board area.

8. The event was very successful, however feedback was that combining the awards and the dinner wasn’t ideal as the focus was more on award nominees and there wasn’t much opportunity to acknowledge the work of the rest of the volunteers. WICOSS have suggested these events be delivered separately this year.

9. It is therefore recommended that $800 funding be granted to WICOSS to support their annual Volunteers Dinner in December, and the Community Service Award event be delivered separately by local board / council staff in Mar / April 2017 utilising the remaining budget of $1,200.

10. The process and criteria for the Community Service Award will be similar to last year’s which was based on standard Community Service Award objectives and criteria.

11. Nominations will be invited through local media, council media, social media, posters, direct contact with appropriate organisations.

12. It is recommended a board member or members be delegated to work with officers to finalise the Community Service Awards objectives and criteria, and determine the selection panel to review applications and make decisions.

Consideration

Local Board views and implications

13. The 2014 Local Board Plan recognises the role volunteers play in fostering community identity and looking after the natural environment.

14. The 2016/17 Local Board Agreement allocates $2,000 to recognition of volunteers on the island.

Māori impact statement

15. This report does not involve any significant decisions and does not have any particular benefits to or adverse effects on Maori.

Implementation

Waiheke Local Board

24 November 2016

Adoption of a business meeting schedule

File No.: CP2016/22378

Purpose

1. To seek the adoption of the Waiheke Local Board meeting schedule for the 2016/2019 electoral term.

Executive summary

2. A draft meeting schedule for the 2016/2019 electoral term has been developed and is included below for adoption by the local board.

3. The specific times and dates for meetings, public engagement and any hearings, which may be required for matters such as local board plans and local board agreements, are yet to be finalised. Local board meeting schedules may therefore be updated once these details are confirmed.

Recommendation/s

That the Waiheke Local Board:

a) adopts the meeting schedule outlined below for the 2016/2019 electoral term.

Year	Date	Location
2016	24 November	Waiheke Local Board Office, 10 Belgium Street Ostend Waiheke Island

b) agrees to commence business meetings at 5:15pm. Public forum and deputations will be scheduled in the early part of the business meeting, to enable the democratic process.

c) notes that dates and times for meetings, public engagement and any hearings and deliberations for local board plans and local board agreements are yet to be finalised.

Comments

4. The Local Government Act 2002 (LGA) and the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA) have requirements regarding local board meeting schedules.

5. In summary, adopting a meeting schedule helps meet the requirements of:

· clause 19, Schedule 7 of the LGA on general provisions for meetings, which requires the chief executive to give notice in writing to each local board member of the time and place of meetings. Such notification may be provided by the adoption of a schedule of business meetings.

· sections 46, 46(A) and 47 in Part 7 of the LGOIMA, which requires that meetings are publicly notified, agendas and reports are available at least two working days before a meeting and that local board meetings are open to the public.

6. Adopting a business meeting schedule also allows for a planned approach to workloads and ensures that local board members have clarity about their commitments.

7. Commencing the business meeting during business hours will enable meetings to be productive and ensures best use of resources.

8. There are some instances for which the local board may need to have meetings in addition to this schedule. For example, the local board plans (developed every three years) and local board agreements (developed annually). The specific times and dates for those meetings, public engagement and any hearings process for these matters are yet to be finalised and are therefore not included in the schedule above.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

9. The implication of this report is to ensure that the local board meets its legislative responsibility, as outlined in paragraph five.

Māori impact statement

10. There is no specific impact for Māori arising from this report. Local boards work with Māori on projects and initiatives of shared interest.

Implementation

11. If there is any need to depart from the resolved dates, Auckland Council will publically notify the updated details. Local Board Services Department staff support local board business meetings.

Waiheke Local Board

24 November 2016

Urgent decision-making process

File No.: CP2016/22379

Purpose

1. The purpose of this report is to seek the Waiheke Local Board’s agreement to use the urgent decision-making process when appropriate.

Executive summary

2. The urgent decision-making process enables the board to make decisions without calling the full board together and meeting the requirement of a quorum. By agreeing to this process, the board delegates decision-making authority to the chair and deputy chair, or any person acting in these roles.

3. At times, such as during the Christmas and New Year period, it is not practical to call the full board together and meet the requirements of a quorum. This is an example of when the urgent decision-making process would be used.

Recommendation/s

That the Waiheke Local Board:

a) adopts the urgent decision-making process for matters that require a decision where it is not practical to call the full board together and meet the requirement of a quorum.

b) delegates authority to the chair and deputy chair, or any person acting in these roles, to make urgent decisions on behalf of the local board.

c) agrees that the relationship manager, chair and deputy chair (or any person/s acting in these roles) will authorise the urgent decision-making process by signing off the authorisation memo.

d) notes that all urgent decisions will be reported to the next ordinary meeting of the local board.

Comments

What an urgent decision is

4. The urgent decision-making process enables the chair and deputy chair, or any person acting in these roles, to make urgent decisions on behalf of the local board when it is not practical to call the full board together and meet the requirement of a quorum. Examples include during the Christmas and New Year period or for participating in a council submission process.

5. The Local Government Act 2002^{^[1]} provides for local boards to delegate to committees, sub-committees, members of the local board or Auckland Council staff, any of its responsibilities, duties and powers, with some specific exceptions. This legislation enables the urgent decision-making process.

6. The urgent decision-making process provides an alternative decision-making mechanism to an extraordinary meeting. An extraordinary meeting is called when an urgent decision is required on matters that cannot wait until the next scheduled business meeting of the local board.

7. Urgent decisions are different from emergency decisions, which are only made if there is a risk to public health and safety.

The urgent decision-making process

8. All requests for an urgent decision will be supported by a memo stating the nature of the issue, reason for urgency and what decisions or resolutions are required.

9. The local board relationship manager will use the information in this memo to determine whether or not to authorise the urgent-decision making process.

10. A number of factors will be considered by the relationship manager before approval to use the urgent decision-making process is given, such as:

· the timing of the next scheduled meeting

· confirmation that the local board has the delegation to make the decision

· consideration of the rationale for the urgency

· the significance of the decision and whether the urgent decision-making process is appropriate.

11. Once the relationship manager authorises the use of the urgent decision-making process, the chair and deputy chair (or any person/s acting in these roles) also need to approve the use of the urgent decision-making process by signing the same memo.

12. Once the authorisation memo has been approved, the chair and deputy chair will refer to the substantive report for advice and staff recommendations to inform their decision. This report will meet Auckland Council quality advice standards and adhere to the report authorisation processes.

13. Any decision made using the urgent decision-making process will be reported as an information item to the next ordinary meeting of the local board and the signed approval memo will be attached.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

14. This report outlines the local board urgent decision-making process, and seeks the local board’s agreement to adopt this process.

Māori impact statement

15. There is no specific impact for Māori arising from this report.

Implementation

16. This report outlines how the local board relationship manager and elected members will execute the urgent decision-making process when the need arises. Paragraph four outlines the implications of this for local boards.

17. The local board relationship managers can provide advice as to what might constitute an urgent decision.

Waiheke Local Board

24 November 2016

Appointment of board members to external community organisations

File No.: CP2016/23026

Purpose

1. To appoint board members to external community and national organisations relevant to the local board area.

Executive summary

2. Elected members participate as representatives of the local board on a number of external community and national organisations.

3. The beginning of the new electoral term generates the need for new appointments. This report provides details of the external organisations relevant to the local board and requests that the local board nominates a lead and alternate member to represent the board on those external organisations for the 2016-2019 triennium.

4. In addition, there are a small number of appointments due to legislation or the terms in a deed are the responsibility of the governing body, but because the relationship between the council and the organisation is local, the governing body has delegated its responsibility to nominate an elected member to the relevant local board.

Recommendation/s

That the Waiheke Local Board:

a) Appoints the following board members to the external community groups and organisations listed below:

External organisation	Lead	Alternate
Waiheke Island Council of Social Services
"Waiheke Island Civil Defence Emergency Management Sub Committee"
Waiheke Health Trust
Hauraki Gulf Forum
Waiheke Recreation Centre Trust
Youth Voice

Comments

5. A number of external organisations provide for the formal participation of Auckland Council elected members in their affairs. Elected member appointees will have a variety of duties and liabilities depending on the individual organisation.

6. At the commencement of each triennium, the governing body and local boards recommend appointments to external organisations.

7. As local board representatives, the nominated members represent the board, not in a personal capacity. Board members will provide updates at local board meetings to keep the board regularly informed of discussions and decisions made of their activities unless good reasons exist for confidentiality, these updates are in the form of business meeting reports which maintain public transparency.

8. The reasons for elected member participation in external organisations can be described in a number of ways:

· a trust deed, that requires Auckland Council to make an appointment to an organisation

· an organisation of interest to the local board is inviting elected member representation at its meetings

· associations entered into by the council which provide for elected member representation

· organisation governance, or project or programme oversight, such as regional or local parks management groups

· a statutory or regulatory provision (for example a regulation providing for a community liaison committee) or

· a resource consent requiring the formation of a committee or hearing panel

9. In making decisions about these appointments, it is suggested that local boards are mindful of;

· the elected members availability

· any conflict of interests, including whether the local board provides funding to the entity

· relevance

· historical relationship with the organsation and the Auckland Council

10. Members are delegated in their capacity as elected local board members. Should they no longer be a local board member, their nominations would be automatically repealed.

11. Board members may be part of any organisation in their private capacity and personal interests and are encouraged to disclose memberships to external organisations in the conflict of interest register.
