12. Local boards are also considering the adoption of a local fees and charges schedule for 2017/2018 (Attachment B)
Consideration
Local board views and implications
13. This report seeks adoption from the local board on its content for the Annual Budget 2017/2018 and other associated material. Engagement with the community, including consultation, and a number of workshops and meetings have been held by the local board and with the governing body to finalise their local board agreement.
Māori impact statement
14. Many local board decisions are of importance to and impact on Māori. Local board agreements and the annual budget are important tools that enable and can demonstrate council’s responsiveness to Māori. The local board agreement is based on the local board plan and the Annual Budget 2017/2018 which have both been developed through engagement with the community, including Māori. There is a need to continue to build relationships between local boards and iwi, and where relevant the wider Māori community. Ongoing conversations will assist local boards and Māori to understand each other’s priorities and issues. This in turn can influence and encourage Māori participation in council’s decision-making processes.
Implementation
15. The resolutions of this meeting will be reported to the governing body on 29 June 2017, when it meets to adopt the Annual Budget 2017/2018 including 21 local board agreements and associated performance targets and budgets.
16. Decisions on the local board agreement, a message from the chair, local board advocacy, local activity budgets and local performance targets are required in order for staff to finalise local content for the Annual Budget 2017/2018.
17. It is possible that minor changes may need to be made to the attachments before the annual budget is adopted, such as correction of any errors identified and minor wording changes. Staff therefore recommend that the local board delegates authority to the Local Board Chair to make final changes if necessary.

File No.: CP2017/09148

2. To approve in principle the 2017-2020 Community Facilities Capital Works Programme for the Puketāpapa Local Board.
Executive summary
3. The Community Facilities department is responsible for the building, maintaining and renewing all open spaces and community buildings. This includes the community leasing and licensing of council-owned premises.
4. The Puketāpapa Local Board 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme was developed using a combination of local board feedback, staff assessments of assets and key stakeholder input. Once this programme of work is approved, it will efficiently manage the creation and renewal of all Community Facilities assets and community leases.
5. In the 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme, the following budgets have been identified in the 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme:
· $25,000 of locally driven initiatives capital discretionary funding
· $30,000 of locally driven initiatives operational discretionary funding, and
· $$2,744,438 of asset-based services capital funding
6. The 2017-2020 Community Facilities Capital Works Programme was developed to enable greater visibility, an improved level of project planning, and the ability to integrate projects within a strategically aligned programme. Once this programme is approved in principle, staff will continue to seek local board feedback through regular engagement and this will be adopted into the future years’ programmes.
7. The local board were given the opportunity to discuss the draft work programmes for capital works, leasing and operational maintenance at a workshop on 6 April 2017. Following this feedback, an updated work programme was developed by staff and is provided in Attachment A. This report recommends that the board approves the 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme and associated budget. This report also seeks approval in principle for the 2017-2020 Community Facilities Capital Works Programme.
8. Once approved by the Puketāpapa Local Board, new work will commence from July 2017. Regular updates on the line items will be provided by the Community Facilities Stakeholder Advisors.
That the Puketāpapa Local Board: a) approve the Puketāpapa Local Board 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme as detailed in Attachment A b) approve in principle the Puketāpapa Local Board 2017-2020 Community Facilities Capital Works Programme as detailed in Attachment B. c) delegate approval to the Puketāpapa Local Board Chair for any variances in the scope of the projects identified within the 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme. d) note that the 2017/2018 asset-based services capital works funding envelope, identified for the work programme, is indicative to deliver the work and any budget variances will be managed within the total region-wide asset-based services funding envelope. |
Comments
9. Community facilities and open spaces provide important community services to the people of Auckland. They contribute to building strong, healthy, and vibrant communities by providing spaces where Aucklanders can participate in a wide range of social, cultural, art, and recreational activities. These activities improve lifestyles and a sense of belonging and pride amongst residents.
10. The 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme detailed in Attachment A contains information on all proposed projects to be delivered by Community Facilities, including capital works projects, leasing and operational maintenance. The 2017-2020 Community Facilities Capital Works Programme detailed in Attachment B contains the three year proposed capital works programme for renewals and growth projects.
Community Facilities Department
11. The purpose of the Community Facilities department is to build, renew, and maintain community assets including but not limited to: buildings, furniture and fit-out, structures, land, trees, and green space. Community Facilities is responsible for maintaining and renewing local and sports parks, regional and specialist parks, cemeteries, pools and leisure centres, libraries, community centres, venues for hire, arts facilities, public toilets, holiday parks and council owned community lease assets.
Capital works programme
12. Investment in the capital programme will ensure that council facilities and parks open spaces in Puketāpapa Local Board remain valuable and well-maintained community assets that continue to meet the agreed levels of service. Asset-based services capital works includes both growth and renewals projects.
13. The renewals programme is prioritised against three main drivers: asset condition, level of provision and identified risk. Not undertaking timely renewals will have a negative impact on the customer experience and put asset performance at risk, and ultimately increase the cost to maintain the facility.
14. Growth projects are prioritised to align with parks strategies, community benefit, and the proportion of population growth in the area.
15. At a workshop on the 6 April 2017, Community Facilities staff presented a draft three year forward work programme for elected member feedback. A three-year rolling programme promotes well-developed planning and optimal use of resources. By building a programme that is strategically focused, staff can ensure funding allocation for scoped projects, and therefore maximise chances of project delivery on time and on budget. The work included in each year will be comprised of a sustainable balance between the three delivery components of planning, design, and construction. The three-year rolling programme will be a live agreement between local boards and Community Facilities, and will be aligned with strategic goals. A three-year rolling work programme also ensures that the highest priority works are implemented without delay should a delivery opening emerge within the current year’s programme.
16. The 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme contains the first year of the three year rolling programme and was updated following the workshop on the 6 April 2017.
· Number of projects: 38
· Estimated cost for proposed projects: $2,799,438
17. The 2017-2020 Community Facilities Capital Works Programme contains the follow projects:
· Number of projects: 42
Leasing work programme
18. Community leases are a valuable way in which the council provides support to local community organisations to provide the activities and services aligned with recognised local priorities.
19. Attachment A provides a detailed list of the community leases and licences that will expire or are due for renewal over the 2017/2018 financial year, in addition to those from previous years’ work programmes which have yet to be completed.
20. Once the 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme is approved, staff will be able to bundle reporting on routine or non-controversial matters whilst focusing attention on those community leases that are more complex.
Operational maintenance work programme
21. The regular maintenance of all council-owned built and open space assets plays an important part in:
· increasing the long-term durability of Community Facilities assets
· improving the safety of Community Facilities assets
· ensuring the enjoyment of Community Facilities assets by the users
22. Community Facilities will launch ‘Project 17’ in July 2017 which creates new bundled maintenance contracts across the Auckland region for full facility, ecological restoration and arboriculture maintenance contracts. The Finance and Performance Committee approved these contracts on 30 March 2017.
23. In the 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme, there is one line item dedicated to all maintenance in the local board area. This includes all buildings, parks and open space assets, sports fields, tree management and maintenance, ecological restoration, pest management, riparian planting, coastal management and storm damage. Staff will be able to provide regular reporting on maintenance through monthly updates to the local boards and through the quarterly report.
Consideration
Local board views and implications
24. The Community Facilities Work Programme has been created through a combination of local board feedback, asset condition assessments and agreed levels of service.
25. The draft 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme and the 2017-2020 Community Facilities Capital Works Programme were considered by the local board at a workshop on 6 April 2017. The views expressed by local board members during the workshop have been recorded in Attachment C and adopted in Attachment A and Attachment B.
26. The Community Facilities work programme supports the achievement of the following 2014-2017 Puketāpapa Local Board Plan priorities:
· A strong sense of belonging and local identity
· Vibrant, popular parks and treasured natural environment
· Healthy, safe people and places
Māori impact statement
27. The 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme ensures that all facilities and open space assets continue to be well-maintained assets that benefit the local community, including Māori. All community assets contribute significantly to Māori well-being, values, culture and traditions. Where any aspects of the proposed work programme are anticipated to have a significant impact on sites of importance to mana whenua then appropriate engagement will be undertaken.
28. Staff are also attending mana whenua fora on a monthly basis to receive feedback on the 2017/2018 Community Facilities Work Programme.
Implementation
29. This work programme will be implemented as part of Community Facilities’ usual business practice.
30. Work programme implementation will be reported regularly by stakeholder advisors and quarterly through the performance report to the local board.

Background
5. The 2017/2018 local economic development programme has been developed with regard to the Local Board’s priorities for local economic development set out in the Local Board Plan (2014) and the Puketāpapa Local Economic Development Action Plan.
6. The proposed LED programme comprises the following activities:
Puketāpapa Business Connect ($20,000)
7. As part of the 2016/17 work programme, the local board commissioned Campaign NZ to deliver a business support programme in Puketāpapa. The programme developed by Campaign NZ, called Business Voice, includes three editions of a newsletter and three public seminars. The seminar topics cover crime prevention, retail and social media for small businesses.
8. The Business Voice project will finish in June 2017 and ATEED will then undertake a review of the 2016/17 Puketāpapa business support programme delivered by Campaign NZ. The review will provide a summary of the programmes completed and recommendations on future business support initiatives that could be undertaken in the Puketāpapa Local Board area.
9. The 2017/18 Puketāpapa Business Connect project will be developed taking into account the review of the 2016/17 Business Voice project and the potential to link a future initiative with ‘Taste of Puketāpapa’ and the opportunity to promote ‘Taste of Puketāpapa through social media as a catalyst to connect local businesses and get them engaged.
10. The details of the 2017/18 Puketāpapa Business Connect project will be developed and presented back to the Local Board prior to work commencing.
Young Enterprise Scheme ($1,000)
11. ATEED, on behalf of the Young Enterprise Trust, delivers the Young Enterprise Scheme (YES) in Auckland. YES is a practical, year-long programme for year 12 and 13 students. Through the programme, students develop creative ideas into actual businesses, complete with real products and services and experience real profit and loss.
12. The YES provides a practical, hands on experience for young people to develop and execute a business idea. The YES is delivered in Auckland on behalf of the Young Enterprise Trust by Auckland Tourism Events and Economic Development (ATEED). The Local Board currently has one school, Tamaki College participating in the YES,
13. Fostering youth entrepreneurship is a key requirement for developing an innovative economy and creating employment pathways for our young people. Through the programme, students develop creative ideas into actual businesses, complete with real products and services and real profit and loss. Students learn key work skills and business knowledge including: business fundamentals, planning, interpersonal relations, financial, decision making, reporting, risk management and team work. YES helps create a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship amongst Auckland’s young people.
14. The funding from the local board will support the delivery of the YES Enterprise-Days (e-days) in February 2018. The e-days are held in sub-regions (north, south, east, central/west) and are the first day students get to meet the Young Enterprise team, and find out about their 2018 year, what YES is about, and what is in store for them. All schools in the local board area that have shown an interest in YES are invited. In addition the invite is extended to those schools who have not shown an interest to enable them to make a decision as to whether to participate.
