Resolution number UH/2017/140 MOVED by Chairperson L Whyte, seconded by Member U Balouch: That the Upper Harbour Local Board: a) provide the following feedback in relation to the Auckland Plan Refresh: i. agree with the purpose and intent of the six outcome areas, as well as their respective focus areas; ii. support the framework as a tool to complement the local board’s strategic outcomes, as detailed in the Upper Harbour Local Board Plan; iii. Homes and Places, Focus Area HP_FA2 – propose that immigration, and the subsequent impacts on the Auckland region, be a key consideration of this focus area; iv. Homes and Places, Focus Area HP_FA4 – propose that a ‘Warrant of Fitness’ should be required for rental properties, to ensure a minimum quality standard of housing provision, is achieved; v. Homes and Places – propose that regional growth should be encouraged through the provision of housing incentives outside of the Auckland region, to less well populated areas of New Zealand; vi. Homes and Places – propose that central and local government should gather detailed data, in addition to the census data, utilising all agency resources (where legally appropriate) in order to understand what is driving growth and to be able to make informed decisions; vii. propose the inclusion of percentage of Aucklanders who feel engaged and empowered by Auckland Council, as a measure for the Belonging and Participation Outcome; viii. propose the inclusion of a measure to assess the success of youth transitioning from university to work, with particular focus on ethnic diversity, as a measure for the Opportunities and Prosperity Outcome; and ix. note concern that infrastructure development continues to have a focus on central Auckland, while new housing developments are being built in outlying areas of the region. A fair and proportionate level of infrastructure investment is required in other metropolitan areas (e.g. Takapuna, Albany and Manukau), so the focus areas, such as more access to local jobs, resilient economy and workforce, can be achieved. b) note that the resolutions of this meeting will be reported back to the Planning Committee for consideration in the drafting of the refreshed Auckland Plan. |
