d)      require that, following the motion being rescinded, all elected members be called ‘Councillor’, with a prefix of Local or Ward/Regional, as appropriate.

e)      forward this Notice of Motion and subsequent resolutions to the Governing Body for its consideration at the 11 December 2017 meeting.

Auckland Transport Report – Albert-Eden Local Board, November 2017

 

File No.: CP2017/24528

 

  

 

Purpose

1.       This report provides a progress update to the Board on its current transport capital fund projects, along with the Auckland Transport (AT) quarterly report and recommends that the Board move to the next stage of the Carrington Area Traffic Calming project.

Executive summary

2.       This report proposes a recommendation that the Board approve AT to move to consultation and construction of the Carrington Area Traffic Calming project. At its 28 June 2017 meeting the Board resolved to proceed with detailed design and costings of the preferred option and is now being asked to allocate budget to the project from its transport capital fund.

3.       The report provides a general progress report on other Board transport capital fund projects and notes the remaining funds to be allocated to new projects.

4.       Noted are decisions of AT’s Traffic Control Committee affecting the Board area and consultations sent to the Board for feedback.  Included are attachments which contain AT’s quarterly reporting information for the Board from July to September 2017.

 

Recommendation/s

That the Albert-Eden Local Board:

a)      Approve allocation of budget from the Albert-Eden Transport Capital Fund of up to $450,000 for the Carrington Area Traffic Calming project, and authorise Auckland Transport to proceed with consultation and construction.

 

 

Comments

5.       In May 2016, the Board conducted a survey in the Carrington Road area (all streets between Carrington Road in the west and the railway and St Lukes Rd in the east) to determine community perceptions of traffic speeds and safety concerns in the area.

6.       The feedback received convinced the Board that moving forward with a traffic calming project in this area would be of considerable benefit to residents.

7.       The survey results were given to AT with a request to analyse the results and to produce preliminary designs that would address the issues residents had reported and provide traffic calming interventions in the area.

8.       The preliminary designs were presented and discussed with the Board in May 2017.  At its 28 June 2017 meeting, the Board resolved to request Auckland Transport to proceed with detailed design and costings for its preferred option B of the Carrington Area Traffic Calming project.  . 

9.       Option B of the Carrington Area Traffic Calming project includes a range of traffic calming devices such as threshold treatments, wayfinding and give-way signage, roundabouts, kerb build-out, pram crossings and pedestrian refuges. Costs for this option were estimated to be between $400,000 and $420,000 at the time.

10.     The scheme design work was presented to the November 2017 Board workshop meeting. In order to progress the next stage of the project, it is recommended that the Board confirm allocation of budget from its Transport Capital Fund of up to $450,000 and authorise AT to proceed with consultation and construction. The increased allocation of up to $450,000 will cover any unknown or additional costs associated with tendering and construction.

Strategic Alignment

11.     This project supports the 2017 Albert-Eden Local Board Plan outcome of “Travelling around Albert-Eden is safe and easy”.  It builds on work already delivered by the Board in its last term to provide residential quiet zones and to reduce traffic speed in the Balmoral and Sandringham areas.

12.     Submissions to the 2017 draft plan also supported putting emphasis on traffic-calming measures in the Board’s area to promote slower speeds and safer streets for pedestrians, cyclists and motorists.

13.     The survey of residents in the Carrington area in 2016 showed strong support for traffic-calming measures to slow traffic down and limit rat running (avoiding heavy traffic or delays by using side streets instead of main roads).

Transport Capital Fund Update

Financial Summary

Albert -Eden Local Board Transport Capital Fund Financial Summary

Total Funds Available in current political term

$2,944,920

Amount committed to date on projects approved for design and/or construction

$1,845,834

Remaining Budget left

$1,099,086

 

14.     The Albert-Eden Local Board has discretionary funding available for transport related capital projects in its area.   In this political term, the Board has committed funding to two major projects, the Carrington area traffic calming project and a shared path through Chamberlain Park (Meola Creek section). The table above indicates a budget of just over $1,000,000 remains to be allocated to projects in the Albert-Eden Local Board area.

15.     Over a number of months, the Board has worked up a list possible transport capital projects.  These were assessed over a range of criteria established by the Board earlier in 2017. At the October 2017 meeting the Board requested AT to provide rough order of costs for six projects.  This work is in preparation and will be reported back in the New Year.

16.     The Board’s current Local Board projects are summarised in the table below:

The estimate of works assumes a path on the western side of the creek. The shared path will link Rawalpindi Reserve, through the proposed local park, to the North Western Cycleway. This project is being managed by Auckland Council Community Facilities.

 

$700,000

 

Upcoming Projects and Activities

Waterview Shared Pathway Activation Day – new date

17.     AT’s Walking and Cycling team are planning a community event to celebrate the newly completed Waterview shared pathway. The November fun day had to be cancelled due to the heavy rain forecast and the new date for the event is Saturday 21 January 2018.

Regional and Sub Regional Projects

Dominion Road Bus Lane Improvement project

18.     The Dominion Road Bus Lane Improvements project is now considering the effect of the preference of the new government for light rail in this corridor.

19.     Phase A of the project, rationalising bus stop and providing continuous bus lanes, is still in progress and information letters to affected parties are expected to be sent out in the coming weeks. The construction for Phase A is planned for March 2018.

20.     Phase B of the project, street scape upgrades for the three villages along the route, is currently on hold as AT assess the impacts from the LRT project.

Parking Improvements – Pay By Plate

21.     Over the next few months, Auckland Transport will be upgrading all 810 pay-and-display parking machines to include ‘pay-by-plate’ technology.

22.     The pay-by-plate technology enables customers to enter their registration plate into the machine without the need for a display ticket, making it a faster, more seamless customer experience.

23.     The newly upgraded machines will also include paywave technology to further improve the customer experience. The Text-a-Park payment option will not be available as part of the new machines as AT Park phone app is considered to be a superior alternative for customers who want to use their phone.

24.     The pay-by-plate payment solution is considered ‘best practice’ and has been implemented successfully in private car parks in Auckland and also for on-street parking in Tauranga and Christchurch.

25.     Ponsonby is the first area to go live with Pay by Plate in October 2017. Newmarket will follow in November 2017, then Parnell, Kingsland, Remuera, in December 2017. The CBD – January 2018, Takapuna, Manukau – February 2018, Eden Terrace – March 2018.

Quarterly Reporting – July to September 2017

26.     The following quarterly report material is attached to this monthly report:

·    Attachment A – report from Auckland Transport departments on their activities in the Albert-Eden Local Board area and regionally over the last quarter (July to September 2017).

Consultation Items

28.     AT provides the Board with the opportunity to comment on transport projects being delivered in its Local Board Area. In this reporting period, the consultations noted below were sent to the Board and any responses were noted.

Puriri Avenue

Proposed Change

 

 AT is proposing to install P120 parking restrictions, 8am-6pm, Monday-Friday, along the entire northern side of Puriri Avenue in Greenlane. We are not proposing to offer residential parking permits associated with these changes.

 

Reason for Proposed Change

As parking on this side of the street is currently unrestricted, many vehicles are parked there the whole day to access the busy commercial area in Greenlane. The proposed restrictions will increase availability and ensure parking turnover, meaning residents, their visitors and the wider community will be able to use the spaces.

 

Circulated 1 November, feedback by 15 November 2017

Enfield Street

Nugent Street

Normanby Road

Proposed Change

 AT is proposing to implement three designated parking spaces as City Hop car share spaces outside:

·     3 Enfield Street, Mount Eden

·     25 Nugent Street, Mount Eden

·     10 Normanby Road, Mount Eden

 

.Reason for Change

As the use of shared vehicles is increasing, City Hop is looking to expand its network of vehicles outside of the CBD, and has identified a location close to Mount Eden train station which they believe would be ideal, due to the high density of residential apartments in the area.

AT supports the car share initiative as it helps contribute to a number of goals set out in our Statement of Intent, such as reducing car dependency and providing effective and efficient alternative transport options.

 

Circulated 1 November, feedback by 15 November 2017.

Bourne St, Mt Eden

Proposed Change

AT is proposing to install Broken Yellow Lines at the end of Bourne Street in Mount Eden.

 

Reason for Change

Vehicles parking at the turning head of this road are causing operational issues for road users trying to manoeuvre here.

 

Circulated 3 Nov 2017

Feedback by 17 Nov 2017

 

Consideration

Local board views and implications

29.     The Board’s views will be incorporated during consultation on any proposed schemes.

Māori impact statement

30.     No specific issues with regard to impacts on Māori are triggered by this report and any engagement with Māori will be carried out on an individual project basis.

Implementation

31.     All proposed schemes are subject to prioritisation, funding and consultation.

Disposals recommendation report

 

File No.: CP2017/05902

 

  

 

Purpose

1.       This report seeks the Albert-Eden Local Board’s endorsement for Panuku Development Auckland (Panuku) to recommend to the Finance and Performance Committee the disposal of two council owned properties in the Albert-Eden Local Board area. 

Executive summary

2.       The council-owned properties at 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden and 132 Green Lane East, Greenlane have been identified as potentially surplus to council requirements through a review process.  Consultation with council departments and council controlled organisations (CCOs), Iwi authorities and the Albert-Eden Local Board has now taken place.  No alternative service use has been identified for the properties through the rationalisation process.  Due to this, Panuku recommends disposal of the sites. 

3.       A resolution approving the disposal of the properties is required from the Finance and Performance Committee before the proposed divestment can be progressed. 

 

Recommendation/s

That the Albert-Eden Local Board:

a)      endorse Panuku Development Auckland’s recommendation to the Finance and Performance Committee to dispose of 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden;

b)      endorse Panuku Development Auckland’s recommendation to the Finance and Performance Committee to dispose of 132 Green Lane East, Greenlane.

 

 

Comments

4.       Panuku and Auckland Council’s Stakeholder and Land Advisory team in Community Facilities work jointly on a comprehensive review of council’s property portfolio.  One of the outcomes of the review process is to identify properties in the council portfolio that are potentially surplus to requirements and may be suitable to sell.  The subject sites were identified as potentially saleable through the review process.

5.       Once a property has been identified as potentially surplus, Panuku engages with council departments and its CCO’s through an expression of interest process, to establish whether the property must be retained for a strategic purpose or is required for a future funded project.  Once a property has been internally cleared of any service requirements, Panuku then consults with local boards, mana whenua and ward councillors.  All sale recommendations must be approved by Panuku’s Board before it makes a final recommendation to Council’s Finance and Performance Committee. 

Property information - 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden

6.       2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden is a vacant 149m2 site that was purchased by the former Mount Eden Borough Council in 1951 under the Public Works Act 1928, for the purpose of public conveniences.

7.       The rear of the site has no legal access, as the toilets occupy the whole width.  Only the vacant area of approximately 110m2 behind the toilet block is subject to a Panuku led rationalisation process.  The toilet block is being retained by council. 

8.       The Auckland Unitary Plan zoning is Business - Local Centre, the total area of 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden has a 2014 capital value of $290,000.

Property information - 132 Green Lane East, Greenlane

9.       132 Green Lane East, Greenlane is a 722m2 commercially leased car park that was acquired by the the former Auckland City Council for general purposes under special circumstances in 1964, following the former owner’s inability to sell privately due to the building-line restriction for the future widening of Green Lane East.

10.     The property was used as an off-street carpark for general use, and then used as a public carpark subject to a license for access to the neighbouring property until 2014.  In 2014 Auckland Transport (AT) and a third party entered into an agreement to lease the carpark for use in connection with the adjacent retail premises at 136 Green Lane East.

11.     The property was transferred to Panuku from AT in 2017 as no longer required for transport infrastructure service requirements and is the subject of a Panuku led rationalisation process.

12.     The Auckland Unitary Plan zoning is Business – Mixed Use.  It has a 2014 capital value of $1,450,000.

Internal consultation

13.     The rationalisation process for 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden commenced in December 2016.  No expressions of interest were received during the internal consultation.

14.     The rationalisation process for 132 Green Lane East, Greenlane commenced in July 2017.  No expressions of interest were received during the internal consultation.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

15.     Local boards are informed of the commencement of the rationalisation process for specific properties.  Following the close of the expression of interest period, relevant local boards are engaged with. 

2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden

16.     Panuku attended a workshop with the Albert-Eden Local Board regarding the rationalisation of 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden in March 2017.  The Board requested further investigations into potential transport infrastructure service uses and whether the condition rating of the toilet building required replacing the facility, which could then provide legal access to the rear of the site.  The Board also later requested further investigation into a potential land swap with a neighbouring property owner.

17.     In response to the Board’s queries, Panuku liaised with AT and council’s Community Facilities department.  Panuku provided the Board with a response to its queries at a workshop held in October 2017. 

18.     Advice was provided that AT does not require 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden for off-street parking or walking and cycling infrastructure purposes as the lack of legal access to the rear of the site is problematic.  In regards to a proposed land swap, the delegation for acquiring property for transport purposes sits with AT, not Panuku.  AT can at any time acquire land as proposed by the Board through its delegations in accordance with the Public Works Act 1981 by negotiation or compulsory acquisition.  There is no requirement to link the rationalisation of 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden to additional property acquisition.  The proposed disposal of 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden should be treated as a standalone disposal.

19.     The Board was also advised that council’s Community Facilities department confirmed that the toilet block condition rating does not warrant a renewal at this time and locating a new more compact design toilet block to either the front or rear of 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden would create community safety concerns in the resulting vacant space.  As such the department does not support a proposal to redevelop the site and retain the 110m2 area subject to rationalisation.

132 Green Lane East, Greenlane

20.     Panuku attended a workshop with the Board regarding the rationalisation of 132 Green Lane East, Greenlane in October 2017.  No issues were raised regarding the proposed disposal.

21.     This report provides the Board with an opportunity to formalise its views regarding the subject properties.

Implementation

24.     The council-owned sites at 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden and 132 Green Lane East, Greenlane are likely to be subject to offer back obligations to the former owners under section 40 of the Public Works Act 1981.

25.     A survey will be required if the subject rear parcel of 2A Stokes Road, Mt Eden is approved for disposal, as it would have no legal road frontage.  It is likely that a title would only issued for the land on condition that it is amalgamated with adjoining title/s.  The adjoining land owner has registered interest in purchasing this site, should it be approved for disposal. 

26.     AT will uplift transport designation ID1629 for 132 Green Lane East, Greenlane if the property is approved for disposal by the Finance and Performance Committee.

27.     Following receipt of the Albert-Eden Local Board’s resolutions, these sites will be presented to the Finance and Performance Committee with a recommendation to divest of them.  If the Finance and Performance Committee approves the proposed disposal of these sites, Panuku will seek to divest of these sites in a manner which provides an optimal outcome and return to council.

28.     The terms and conditions of any disposal would be approved under appropriate financial delegation.

Input to the Review of Citizens Advice Bureaux services

 

File No.: CP2017/24158

 

  

 

Purpose

1.       To seek local board feedback on the draft options for supporting the future provision of Citizens Advice Bureaux services to Auckland’s communities.

Executive summary

2.       Auckland Council is reviewing Citizens Advice Bureaux services in Auckland following a resolution by the Regional Strategy and Policy Committee in April 2016.

3.       The review will determine the appropriate level of Auckland Council support for Citizens Advice Bureaux services from 2018/2019 onwards.

4.       Thirty-one Citizens Advice Bureaux operate in the Auckland region.

5.       Auckland Council fund Auckland Citizens Advice Bureaux Incorporated $1.839 million a year which then distributes the funds to bureaux.

6.       Local boards have provided input to the review on the local relationships, services and funding. Staff have developed draft options to address the issues and opportunities raised.

The options are in the table below:

Option 1: Enhanced status quo

Enhancements are a refined funding model, reporting improvements and strengthened local relationships 

Option 2: Locally driven

Transfers responsibility for existing budget to local boards

Option 3: Regional service provision

Collective review of funding levels and number and location of service sites 

 

7.       Staff consider Option 3 to be the best option to achieve consistent regional service delivery. If CABx and CABNZ do not agree with Option 3, then Option 1 provides for greater consistency of service delivery than Option 2.

8.       Staff will incorporate feedback from local boards on the draft options in to the review findings to be reported to the Environment and Community Committee in early 2018.

 

Recommendation

That the Albert-Eden Local Board:

a)      provide feedback on the draft options for supporting the future provision of Citizens Advice Bureaux services to Auckland’s communities by 1 December 2017.

Comments

Background

9.       On 7 April 2016 the Regional Strategy and Policy Committee resolved to:

seek information from staff regarding a review of the service after consultation with

the 21 local boards on the issues raised by the Māngere-Ōtāhuhu Local Board regarding Auckland Citizens Advice Bureaux Incorporated (ACABx) funding, to achieve greater equity and fairness, taking into consideration social issues in local communities across Auckland.” (REG/2016/22)

10.     The review scope includes:

·    alignment to council policy, strategic priorities, local board plans and policies

·    equitable service provision – Aucklanders having access to the services they need across the region, responding to growth and change in Auckland’s communities

·    equity of funding for bureaux across Auckland – the basis for how funding is distributed

·    how Auckland Council interacts and engages with bureaux across Auckland

·    communicating the impact and value of Citizens Advice Bureaux (CAB) services

·    council’s governance needs and role with regard to reporting and accountability.

11.     Since 2013 Auckland Citizens Advice Bureaux Incorporated (ACABx), a board made up of representatives from across Auckland bureaux, has been distributing the council funding to bureaux using a population-based funding model which replaced previous funding arrangements by legacy councils.

12.     ACABx received $1.839 million for 2017/2018, which includes an annual inflation provision. This expenditure is included in the Long-term Plan 2015-2025.

13.     Some local boards provide funding to their local bureaux in addition to the core funding allocated through ACABx.  Local boards provide support to CAB through accommodation as the majority of bureaux are located in council facilities.

14.     ACABx distributes funds to local CAB so that communities are provided with access to information, advice, referral and client advocacy services.

Current Auckland CAB services and alignment with local board plans and council strategies

15.     Currently there are 31 Auckland CAB sites in 18 local board areas, with over 900 trained volunteers fielding approximately 300,000 enquiries per annum; 75% of the service is delivered face-to-face.

16.     Support for CAB services aligns with the following:

·    local board plan outcomes, such as connected communities, employment and housing

·    Auckland Plan (strategic direction one): to create a strong, inclusive and equitable society that ensures opportunity for all Aucklanders

·    Empowered Communities Approach, where individuals, whānau and communities have the power and ability to influence decisions.

17.     The first annual review of the Auckland Council-ACABx Strategic Relationship Agreement (2016-2018) noted the following achievements and issues:

·    agreed relationship principles, established a governing group and secured CAB New Zealand (CABNZ) involvement to support the relationship

·    work is still in progress to improve measurement and the CAB reporting model

·    both parties acknowledged that the current arrangements limit the collective ability to achieve regional level change, including closure, rationalisation or new sites and influencing local service provision 

·    currently ACABx will not address the overall number and location of service sites operated by member bureaux, which is based on legacy council models.  They will not consider opening new sites unless there is an increase in the overall funding envelope.  Based on current information shared by CAB it is difficult to determine the value of the service in order for the council to review its funding commitment.

The review of CAB Services in Auckland

18.     Local boards provided input to the review during July and August 2017. A comprehensive information pack was provided to resource and support their input. The full summary of local board input is provided in Attachment A.

19.     Feedback from boards highlighted what is working well:

·    Most boards consider the services are of high value to the community.

·    Leverage of council funding as services are delivered by well trained, approachable, multi-lingual and knowledgeable volunteers.

·    Connecting people with information and services otherwise out of reach, especially for migrants, older people, international students and lower socioeconomic groups.

20.     The review has identified a number of issues, including:

·    Inequity in funding of bureaux and service provision across the region – service needs to be responsive to growth and community need.

·    The need for better connections between local boards and bureaux to support improved two-way communication.

·    The need for bureau data and information on trends and emerging issues at regional and site level. 

·    Future service sustainability, including awareness of service and better outreach to targeted groups that currently are under-represented as users (e.g. Māori, some migrant groups, young people, rural communities).

21.     Some local boards have raised deprivation as a factor that should be taken into account in allocating funding to bureaux. These boards consider that areas of high deprivation should get more funding as there is increased and more complex need. Further investigation is needed and staff are seeking evidence from CAB on what they deliver and from which sites, and where their clients live before deprivation can be considered within the funding model.

Draft options for feedback

22.     Three draft options have been developed that respond to the issues and opportunities raised by local boards and the review of the Strategic Relationship Agreement.

Table 1: Review of CAB services: Draft options

Option

Description

Pros

Cons

Implementation

Option 1: Enhanced status quo

 

· Overall funding envelope unchanged

· Governing Body remains the decision maker for funding

· Council has funding agreement with ACABx

· The funding agreement includes:

- A review of the population-based funding model with up-to-date local board population estimates, current CAB sites and exploring the use of deprivation as a proxy for need

- Improved reporting with consistent trend information at regional and site level

- A local relationship framework developed to support strengthened and more strategic relationships between local boards and bureaux

 

· Valued community service is maintained

· Continued contribution to regional strategies and improved contribution to local board plan outcomes

· Updated funding model to include some aspects of need, including population growth and potentially deprivation

· Improved reporting on the use and value of the service regionally and locally (who is using the service, why and where)

· Community intelligence is shared to support local decision making and advocacy

· Efficient bulk funding model because Governing Body would allocate bulk funding to ACABx to distribute to the bureaux

 

· No change to the fixed funding envelope

· Does not address the overall number and location of service sites or opening of new sites in high growth areas

· No strategic approach to the region’s service needs

· Does not address that some local boards are providing additional funding for bureau services from LDI budgets

· Does not address the CAB as a largely passive service with limited resources to undertake outreach to vulnerable groups that are currently underrepresented as users

· Does not address responsiveness of the service to changing demographics and evolving community needs

· Could be implemented for 2018/2019 with a two-year funding agreement (July 2018 - June 2020)

· This is the most achievable of the options

a)         

Option 2: Locally driven

 

· CAB operates as a local service rather than a regional service

· Governing Body transfers responsibility for existing budget to local boards.  Locally driven initiatives (LDI) budgets adjusted accordingly

· It would be up to each local board to decide if local bureaux are funded and to what level. From the bureaux perspective, their funding agreement would be with Auckland Council instead of ACABx

· Local boards govern the relationship with bureaux

· The funding agreement includes:

- Meeting local board priorities

- Improved reporting and local relationship framework as under Option 1

b)         

· Opportunity to strengthen alignment of bureaux services with local board plan outcomes and with other local community services

· Local boards and bureaux work together to respond to growth and local changes

· Council funding of the service can be more responsive to local need, e.g. seek rationalisation of bureau sites at a local or cluster level, outreach to vulnerable groups that are currently underrepresented as users

· Boards can direct funding to providers best placed to serve the local community

· Improved reporting on the use and value of the service regionally and locally (who is using the service, why and where)

· Community intelligence is shared to support local decision making and advocacy

· The fixed funding envelope constrains the ability to open new sites

· No strategic approach to the region’s service needs

· Significantly higher administrative burden on CAB  which will need to seek local board support for funding arrangements

· Would require increased dedicated resource from council (Community Empowerment Unit) to administer multiple funding agreements and accountability reports

c)         

· Could be implemented for 2018/2019

· Funding could be ring fenced for the 2018/2019 during phased implementation

· From 2019-2021, local boards could fund on an annual or multi-year basis and could also fund on a local board cluster basis

· This option is achievable but would require significant change for bureaux and local boards

Option 3: Regional service provision

 

· Assessment undertaken to understand the value of the service which would also determine the appropriate level of Auckland Council support required

· This option requires active participation from CABNZ and Auckland bureaux

· Regional Network Provision Framework developed by council, CABNZ and bureaux that reviews the location of bureau sites across the region to address service gaps and opportunities around accommodation

· Could also include potential for a single CAB entity for whole of Auckland with a mandate to develop the service regionally – requires major constitutional change for bureaux

· Comprehensive review of the CAB service going forward and role for Auckland Council in supporting the service

· Only option that allows for a review of the level of council funding for the service

· Strengthened contribution to regional strategies and local board plan outcomes

· Only option that would be able to comprehensively address the overall number and location of service sites, including new sites

· Strategic approach to the region’s service needs and addresses responsiveness of local service delivery

· Requires significant commitment and change from a volunteer-based organisation

· Relies on substantial council involvement and increased dedicated resource

d)             

· The new approach would be developed during 2018/19 and implemented in 2019/2020

· Enhanced status quo would apply in 2018/2019

· This option is the most difficult to achieve and would require long term commitment from all parties and council resourcing to implement

 

23.     Overall Option 3: Regional service provision provides the most likelihood of achieving regional consistency of service delivery to meet changing community need and for this reason staff consider this to be the best option. However, without the agreement of the CABx and CABNZ Option 3 is not achievable. Discussions between council staff, the ACABx board and CABNZ are still ongoing.

24.     If Option 3 is not achievable Option 1: Enhanced status quo will provide for greater consistency of service delivery than Option 2: Locally driven.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

25.     Local boards have detailed knowledge of both local bureau delivery and of their local communities’ needs. Boards have provided input to the review on their relationship with the local bureau, services and funding, indicating that for most boards there is good alignment of the CAB services with local board plan outcomes.

26.     Staff have developed draft options that respond to the issues and opportunities raised by local boards and are seeking feedback on these options. 

27.     Under Option 1 (Enhanced status quo) the funding model is reviewed and an improved local relationship framework would be available to support reporting and discussions between boards and bureaux. Under Option 2 (Locally driven), boards would take on responsibility for funding local bureaux. Under Option 3 (Regional service provision) a fuller assessment would be undertaken with board involvement to determine a new approach for future CAB service provision across the region.

Māori impact statement                          

28.     For 2016/2017, Māori users of CAB services comprised between 2.5% of users in the central Auckland/Waiheke cluster to 13.2% in south/east Auckland cluster (Source: ACABx Accountability Report to Auckland Council July 2016-June 2017). 

29.     Options 2 and 3 are more likely to improve Māori engagement with CAB services as they would support more responsive local service provision.

Implementation

30.     Staff request local boards provide feedback on the draft options by 1 December 2017.  Staff will incorporate this feedback in to the review findings which will be reported to the Environment and Community Committee in early 2018.

Auckland Council's Quarterly Performance Report: Albert-Eden Local Board for quarter one, 1 July - 30 September 2017

 

File No.: CP2017/22590

 

  

 

Purpose

1.       To provide the Albert-Eden Local Board with an integrated quarterly performance report for quarter one, 1 July to 30 September 2017.

Executive summary

2.       This report includes financial performance, progress against local board key performance indicators, progress against work programmes, key challenges the local board should be aware of and any risks to delivery against the 2017/2018 work programme.

3.       The snapshot (attachment A), indicates performance against the agreed 2017/2018 work programmes is tracking positively.

4.       All operating departments with agreed work programmes have provided a quarterly update against their work programme delivery (attachment B). 

5.       All Arts, Community and Events, Libraries and Information, Infrastructure and Environmental Services, Local Economic Development projects and the Albert-Eden Transformation Programme are reported as ‘green’ status (on track) and are progressing well.

6.       The following departments have reported a ‘red’ status (behind delivery, significant risk)/’amber’ status (some risk or issues, which are being managed):

·     Four Parks, Sport and Recreation projects

·     Fifteen Community Facilities: Build Maintain Renew projects

·     Three Community Facilities: Community Leases projects

7.       The overall financial performance for quarter one 2017/2018 is favourable compared to the budget. There are some points for the board to note:

·     Net cost of service is 10 per cent above budget due to higher operating expenditure in this quarter.  Operating revenue has exceeded budget by 5 per cent due to improved usage of community halls. Operating expenditure is 9 per cent above budget primarily due to Rua facilities contract. Capital delivery for the first quarter is 37 per cent of the budget. Attachment C contains further detailed financial information.

8.       The key performance indicators show a trend of delivery that is meeting the indicators, with the exceptions being in the areas of parks, sport and recreation, and community services. These are explained further in detail in the report and attachment D.

9.       The local board has identified two new projects to be funded through reallocation of 2017/2018 locally driven expenditure budget; $10,000 for a mural at Eric Armishaw Reserve, Pt Chevalier, funded through the community response fund, and $5,000 for a traffic flow monitoring project in the streets surrounding Westfield St Lukes Shopping Centre funded through the community engagement budget. An existing project, the Youth With Disabilities event, has been cancelled and it is recommended that the budget of $4,000 be reallocated for zoo passes for families with children with disabilities.

 

Recommendation/s

That the Albert-Eden Local Board:

a)      Receive the performance report for the financial quarter ending 30 September 2017

b)      Agree to the re-allocation of 2017/2018 locally driven initiative operating expenditure budgets for use on the following projects:

i)        $4,000 allocated under Albert-Eden Event Partnership Fund for the Youth With Disabilities event be reallocated for zoo passes for families with children with disabilities

ii)       $5,000 reallocated from the community engagement budget to fund traffic flow monitoring in the streets surrounding Westfield St Lukes shopping centre

iii)      $10,000 reallocated from the community response fund to fund a mural on the toilet block at Eric Armishaw Reserve, Pt Chevalier.

Key achievements for quarter one

12.     The Albert-Eden Local Board has the following key achievements to report from the quarter one period:

·     A number of parks projects and renewals have been completed including Anderson Park amenity lighting (2900), Ex Gold Club rooms – renew hot water cylinder and toilet (2970), Ferndale House kitchen renewal (2973), Mt Albert Library – HVAC replacement stage II (3106) and Sandringham Community Centre – redesign & build backyard area (3183).

·     Funding agreements have been processed for Albert-Eden Schools Cultural Festival (274), Brazilian Day Festival and Morningside-Crave Café Street Party (269). External organisers have been contracted for Christmas at Potters Park (232) and 150th Anniversary of Mt Albert (240) and programming is well underway. Local Civic Events (255) delivered a Justice of the Peace Appreciation evening on 31 July.

·     Demand for Children and Youth engagement (1154) and Preschool programming (1152) in libraries continues to remain high. All three libraries ran a programme of events for the July school holidays, including ‘What Lies Beneath’ at Mt Albert Library, an author talk for the book ‘Tunnels in our Backyard’ at Pt Chevalier Library and ‘Science in Action’ at Epsom Library. 128 preschool programmes were delivered to 6,279 participants across the three libraries.

·     On 1 August 2017 the Planning Committee approved the Albert-Eden Local Transformation Programme (3363) as part of the work to be undertaken by Plans and Places staff. This programme includes spatial planning for Greenwoods Corner, Pt Chevalier and Sandringham town centres. Staff have workshopped the scope of this work with the local board and are currently speaking with internal and external stakeholders and groups.

·     Planning has begun on the 2018 Albert-Eden Business Awards (676). Staff have set up monthly meetings with the contractor and will be bringing a project proposal to the local board in quarter 2.

·     Two new Eco-neighbourhoods (147) formed in Sandringham and Kingsland, resulting in a total of 13 groups now active. Groups have been undertaking activities such as an electric vehicle workshop in Mt Albert, six working bees at Owairaka Park with students from the local primary school and zero waste systems, plastic bag awareness, fruit tree and vertical gardens developed by Sandringham Playgroup.

·     Additional regional budget has been allocated to expand the Epsom Rock Forest Landowner Assistance Programme (64) to cover a greater number of properties than originally anticipated.

Key project updates from the 2017/2018 work programme

13.     The following are progress updates against key projects identified in the Albert-Eden Local Board Plan and/or Local Board Agreement:

·     Mt Albert town centre transformation (639) construction works are in progress. Parking continues to be an issue during construction. Four weekly collaboration meetings with the business community are on-going. The contractor is collaborating with plans for a business development event mid-October to promote businesses in Mt Albert.

·     Chamberlain Park development (2431). Priorities for the local park have been agreed and are in consultation with the local board, Iwi, and other key stakeholders. Detailed design for the local park works and draft design for the golf course relocation works is completed. Engagement with golf club as a key stakeholder continues as the design for the new relocated three holes is further detailed. Two review meetings with the Design Reference Group were held in October to reach agreement on golf-hole relocations. Preparation to finalise and undertake lodgement of the resource consent is underway.

·     Chamberlain Park – install artificial fields and lights (2945). Further investigation into sports field design and construction in the preferred location has identified a cost increase as a result of having to import significant amounts of fill due to underlying substrate. Next steps are to await the outcome of the Long Term Plan decision to fund the realignment of the golf course and construction of the sports fields.

·     The local board endorsed the upgrade of sports fields at Fowlds Park (2435) to hybrid turf. A meeting has been held with user groups of Fowlds Park to discuss the decision. Iwi have also been consulted with. This feedback has been captured and is being used to help inform a concept design.

·     The local board approved five community leases. These are: Mt Eden Tennis Club Inc at Nicholson Park, 25 Poronui Street, Mt Eden; Tennis Auckland Region Inc at Nicholson Park, 25 Poronui Street, Mt Eden; Central Bowling Club Inc at 64a Kiwitea Street, Sandringham; Combined Beneficiaries Union Inc for two offices at Ferndale House, 830 New North Road; and The Gribblehirst Community Hub Trust for the two bowling green spaces at Gribblehirst Park, 225 Sandringham Road.

·     The local board approved nine community grants totally $14,052 during Quick Response Round 1. This included five community applications, three arts/music applications and one sports application. A further $4,000 was allocated to an early Local Grant Round 1 arts/music application.

·     A three year funding agreement has been confirmed with the Arts Broker Programme (208). The Arts Brokers presented the ‘Albert-Eden Community Arts Brokers Report July 2016-June 2017’, reviewing the activities undertaken last financial year. The Arts Brokers have also workshopped the three year vision for 2017-2020, and the work programme for delivery in the 2017/2018 financial year.

Risks identified in the 2017/2018 work programme

14.     The following are risks that have been identified by operating departments where the progress and performance indicator has been set to ‘red’ – significantly behind budget/time or achievement of outcomes/’amber’ status – some risk or issues, which are being managed.

RAG - Red

Parks, Sport and Recreation

·     Sports and recreation facility investigation fund (3333) and Pa Harakeke planting and maintenance at Walmer reserve (3332) were not spent in 2016/2017 and were carried forward.

Community Facilities: Build Maintain Renew

·     Watea Reserve – install additional furniture (2586). This project was merged with Watea Reserve development stage 4 pathway and furniture (3256), and the line will be deleted prior to quarter two reporting.

·     Fowlds Park Action Plan – improve pedestrian safety and signage (2980). This project did not progress due to the pending sports field consent decision.

·     Mt Eden War Memorial Hall – relay basement parquet floor and renew stormwater system (3108). The project is on hold due to seepage of rainwater through the floor. However, floor polishing work for the entrance lobby has been completed.

·     Albert-Eden – identify and design upgrades to community facilities (2520). This is a confirmed duplicate of Albert-Eden upgrade of community facilities (2460), and the line will be deleted prior to quarter two reporting.

RAG – Amber

Parks, Sport and Recreation

·     Mt Albert Leisure Centre and Mt Albert Aquatic Centre (1047). Mt Albert Aquatics Centre visitor numbers are down this quarter due to the boiler being out of action. This has now been repaired.

·     Waterview Reserves: Developing improvements to parks (SH16/20) (783). Heron Park final drainage works have not been completed due to wet conditions. Works are anticipated to be completed in quarter two.

Community Facilities: Build Maintain Renew

·     Fowlds Park – install toilet (2978). This project did not progress due to the pending sports field consent decision. An alternative location outside of the sports field area was found for the toilet but it was cost prohibitive due to drainage and fall issues. A revised location was communicated to the sports club and community group.

·     Potters Parks – develop learn to ride area (2449). Delays with procurement to secure contract.

·     Chamberlain Park development (2431). Two review meetings with the Design Reference Group will be held in October to reach agreement on golf hole relocations. Plan to finalise preparation and undertake lodgement of the resource consent

·     Coyle Park path and development (2432). Potential budget top-up required once the tendering phase is completed.

·     Gribblehirst Park bowling green – investigate reuse (2438). At the time of writing the work programme update, the expression of interest process for a lease of the greens had been completed. This lease has since been agreed during quarter 1, as per comments under paragraph 13.

·     Nicholson Park upgrade – Stage 2 (toilet), stage 3 & 4 (2447). Delay with stage two works due to consents and the change in location.

·     Phyllis Reserve – development stage 2 (2830) and Phyllis Reserve – earthworks to level cap and topsoil on field 3 (2451). The capping work has been placed on hold due to bad weather. The sportsfield work will commence when the capping work has been completed.

·     Fowlds Park – renew fitness equipment and signage (2979) and Fowlds Park – renew general assets (2434). Physical works have been delayed due to resource consent. Works were expected to commence in late September but this has now been delayed further due to high contaminants found during soil testing. Resource consent has been lodged and physical works will commence as soon as consent has been approved.

Community Facilities: Community Leases

·     Akarana Dog Obedience Association Inc –newal lease (1481) and The Metro Mt Albert Sports Club Inc (1492). Approval of new leases is on hold due to the developments at Phyllis Reserve. These leases are on a month by month roll over.

·     The Scout Association of NZ – Balmoral Scout Group (1493). Council staff have not been able to secure a meeting with the new National Property Manager. This leased will be progressed in the next quarter.

Financial performance

15.     Revenue is 9 per cent above the budget at $421,000.

16.     In Asset Based Services (ABS Opex) expenditure is above the budget by 15 per cent.  This is mainly due to Rua facilities contract where scheduled and response maintenance is ahead of budget. This is the first set of accounts for this project and it is expected that it will take at least a full year to collect stable and more predictable costings for budgets for the Long Term Plan.

17.     Capital spend this quarter is mainly for Mt Albert Town Centre renewals, asset renewals in parks and coastal assets and locally driven initiatives capital projects. The wet weather continues to delay some capital work.

Key performance indicators

18.     The local board agreements include level of service statements and associated performance measures to guide and monitor the delivery of local services. This report provides information on the performance measure outlook for Albert-Eden Local Board’s measures, showing how we are tracking after the first quarter of financial year 2017/2018.

19.     The year-end outlook is that 40 per cent of measures will not achieve target.

20.     Currently all performance measures are being reviewed as part of the development of the 2018-2028 Long Term Plan.

21.     For the first and second quarter we will be providing the year-end outlook based on the results of 2016/17 or for any changes to the outlook based on results available. In the third quarter we will be in a better position to accurately project the year-end outlook for all measures. This is because the frequency of most measures is annual as data is collected through surveys.

22.     The key performance measures which have not been achieved are:

·     Percentage of residents who visited a local park or reserve in last 12 months

·     Percentage of residents satisfied with the provision (quality, location and distribution) of sports fields

·     Percentage of funding/grant applicants satisfied with information, assistance and advice provided

·     Percentage of Aucklanders that feel connected to their neighbourhood and local community

·     Percentage of Aucklanders that feel their local town centre is safe (day)

·     Facility Utilisation - utilisation at peak times and off-peak times for council managed community centres and venues for hire (off peak)

·     Number of visitors to community centres and venues for hire

Budget re-allocation

23.     The Youth with Disabilities event included in the 2017/2018 work programme under Albert-Eden Event Partnership Fund (269) cannot be delivered due to limited capacity of partnering organisations and insufficient budget. The local board has workshopped this project with staff and given direction that the funds should still be used to benefit families with children with disabilities, in the form of Auckland Zoo passes.

24.     The local board has identified the need to undertake traffic flow monitoring in St Lukes Road in order to provide a baseline for understanding the impact on local traffic flows and congestion of the expansion of the Westfield St Lukes Shopping Centre. This monitoring will occur in the same week as monitoring which was undertaken from 14 December to 20 December 2015, and provides a measure following the opening of the Waterview Tunnel. The cost of this project is up to $5,000.

25.     The local board has identified a new project to be funded: a mural on the toilet block at Eric Armishaw Reserve in Pt Chevalier. The local board has recently funded the upgrade of the playground and a path at the park. A boardwalk linking the park to Waterview was completed in October this year. The toilet block mural offers the opportunity for art to be incorporated in the park, and the Albert-Eden Arts Brokers will work with a local artist to deliver this project. The cost of this project is $10,000.

Consideration

Local board views and implications

26.     This report informs the Albert-Eden Local Board of the performance for the quarter ending 30 September 2017.

Māori impact statement

27.     The Board’s work programme contains a number of projects which provide direct outcomes for Māori, such as:

·     Creating a Māori Identity (1144). An assessment of the status and background to current park and facility names in the local board area is currently being undertaken and mana whenua are providing direction on the methodology for Māori naming. An update will be provided at workshops in quarter two. 

·     Increase diverse community participation: responsive programming for identified community (567). A series of guided walks/Hikoi on Maungawhau, led by Mana Whenua (Ngāti Whātua O Ōrākei), to explore the cultural significance of the Maunga was completed in quarter one. An evaluation of participant feedback will be completed in quarter two.

·     Local Māori Responsiveness Action Plan (719). Staff working across several local board areas have formed a network to map mana whenua and mataawaka networks and relationships to see where duplication can be avoided and collaboration enhanced. This work will guide the development of approaches in quarter three and four.

·     Celebrating Te Ao Māori and strengthening responsiveness to Māori (1158). Mt Albert library celebrated Te Wiki o te Reo Māori by introducing the concept of Tī Rākau and Mahi Whai (Māori string games) to primary schools. They also ran preschool Te Reo Storytime, Rhymetime sessions and incorporated clay craft to make Māori āhua. Mt Albert library also initiated a relationship with Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Ngā Maungarongo. Library staff at Mt Albert were also introduced to Tī Rākau and learnt basic Te Reo to meet Our Promise to Auckland - Whakatipu i te Reo Māori. Epsom Library held Māori Language Week Storytime, Rhymetime and Wriggle and Rhyme programming.

28.     The Board, through its work programme responds and delivers upon council’s Māori Responsiveness Framework through the following actions:

·     fostering and building strong relationships with mana whenua and matawaaka by ensuring their views are considered prior to making decisions on local projects.

·     collaborating with co-governance entities, such as the Tupuna Maunga Authority for the protection and enhancement of the three maunga in the local board area.

·     embedding mana whenua customary practices within the development of local projects (e.g. blessings at doing sod-turnings).

Implementation

29.     The Local Board will receive the next performance update following the end of quarter 2, December 2017.
