Auckland Transport Update – July 2017 to the
Ōtara-Papatoetoe Local Board
|
|
|
Resolution number OP/2017/114
MOVED
by Chairperson L Fuli, seconded by Member D Trenberth:
That the
Ōtara-Papatoetoe Local Board:
a) note
the Auckland Transport update June 2017 report
b) support, in principle, Auckland Transport’s Roads and
Streets Framework and endorse its submission – Attachment A, with an
amendment to bullet point 4 to read,
·
“Support in principle the proposed
model for better engagement (RASF pp 11-16), but request that details be
added to clarify the process and role of local boards in place-making on
roads.”
c) advise Auckland Transport that the board is concerned about the
process followed for the Election Signs Bylaw amendment: the board was
not consulted before the bylaw was publicly notified and the submission
period was too short (6-26 June), to allow the board to consider its position
and respond within its regular meeting cycle.
d) request Auckland Transport to advise
the reason for the Election Signs Bylaw amendment proposing to delete the
nine-week restriction on the display of election signs before an election,
and in particular, whether the amendment means that election signs may be
displayed for unlimited periods in future.
e) advise Auckland Transport that the
board favours retaining the nine-week restriction on the display of election
signs, because a longer period would give unfair advantage to those
candidates who have more money to spend on signage.
