Horopaki / Context
Regional Land Transport Plan (RLTP)
3. In the next few months a key strategic transport priority for the Papakura Local Board is the development of the Regional Land Transport Programme (RLTP).
4. The RLTP is Auckland Transport’s budget for the next 10 years, with a specific focus on the next 3 years. The budget is set by Auckland Council in discussion with the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA). Initial drafts of the list of projects in the RLTP have been circulated to local board members and councilors, and in the next two months, local boards will have the opportunity to assess the updated list and advocate for projects to be re-prioritised.
5. Auckland Transport strongly advises all local boards to engage in the RLTP process. This is the key opportunity for the Papakura Local Board to advocate for key transport projects that have been identified in their local board plan to be prioritized such as the Grade Separation in Takanini, prioritisation of the Mill Road project, upgrades to the Papakura and Takanini Park and ride and advocacy for the third rail line south of Papakura.

8. Attachment B provides information about Auckland Transport’s work with local schools
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
9. This section covers the analysis and advice related to the Local Board Transport Capital Fund (LBTCF) Projects.
Local Board Transport Capital Fund
10. The Papakura Local Board has discretionary funding available for transport related capital projects in the local board area of approximately $300,000 per annum.
11. The local board’s current LBTCF projects are summarised in the table below:
Table 1 – Local Board Transport Capital Fund Summary Table
Project Name |
Problem or Opportunity Being Addressed |
Current Status |
Relocation of existing cycleway on Great South Road, Takanini.
|
On-road cycle lane is perceived to be unsafe and rarely used. |
Rough order of costs were authorised by the Papakura Local Board in May 2017. Estimated cost is approximately $4m. At this time, funding is unavailable to deliver this project. An investigation into replacing the on-road cycle-lane with a bus /T2-3 lane along Great South Road has been initiated and presented to the local board at a workshop on 11 October 2017. This project is also currently on hold. |
Relocation of pedestrian crossing on East Street, Papakura. |
Existing pedestrian crossing seen as a potential safety hazard and located in the wrong position. |
Rough order of costs were requested by the local board in May 2017 Investigations including pedestrian counts have been completed. A briefing was provided to the local board on 22 November 2017 with the proposed locations for crossings. Currently a scheme plan and costings are being developed. This will be reported back to the local board in March 2018. |
Raised pedestrian crossing for Wood Street, Papakura. |
Lack of safe pedestrian crossing on Wood Street and speeding. |
Rough order of costs were requested by the Papakura Local Board in May 2017 Investigations including pedestrian counts have been completed. A briefing with the local board was held 22 November 2017 with the proposed locations for crossings. Further feedback from local board members regarding the traffic safety of the intersection at Wood/ Menary and Union Streets has also been included as part of this project. The installation of ‘No Stopping At All Time’ lines on the corners of this intersection will improve pedestrian and traffic safety. This work is at scheme plan phase and costings are expected to be completed in March 2018 and reported back to the local board shortly thereafter. |
Signage Plinth at Papakura Train Station. |
Lack of way-finding signage at the Papakura Train Station. |
Rough order of costs were requested by the Papakura Local Board in May 2017. An estimate of $15k for a signage plinth at the train station has been provided. Papakura Local Board request that this project be put on hold until a rough order of costs for an electronic notice board was provided. The board may wish to progress this project as Auckland Transport has confirmed that it cannot deliver the electronic notice board. |
Walkway/ Cycleway across Pahurehure Inlet. |
Lack of pedestrian link between Longford Park and Pahurehure Esplanade Reserve. |
Rough order of costs were requested by the Papakura Local Board in May 2017. Estimates based on similar projects in the region exceed $3 million. This exceeds the current balance of the LBTCF and no alternative funding could be confirmed for this proposal. Therefore this project will not be progressed at this time. |
Priority Greenway Project 12 from the Papakura Greenways Plan - Elliot Street to Freelance Terrace. |
No off-road cycleway/ pedestrian link to SH1 cycleway / walkway currently under development. |
Rough order of costs were requested by the local board in August 2017. A firm estimate of costs requested by the Papakura Local Board in November 2017. The local board formally resolved at the November 2017 meeting to allocate $1.28m for the design and delivery of 650m by 3m wide boardwalk with handrails and concrete connections at either end, also known as Priority Greenway Project 12 from the Papakura Greenways Plan. This boardwalk will link the existing boardwalk around the Pahurehure inlet to the proposed bridge over State Highway 1 and shared pathway currently under construction by New Zealand Transport Agency. Currently the project is being scoped and discussion are underway with the Auckland Council Parks team who will manage the project on behalf of Auckland Transport. |
Electronic notice board including maintenance costs. |
Lack of way-finding signage at Papakura Train Station. |
Rough order of costs were requested by the Papakura Local Board in August 2017. The provision of this type of signage does not meet the LBTCF criteria as it does not have a transport related purpose. This project cannot be delivered by Auckland Transport.
|
Responses to Local Board resolutions
12. The resolutions made at the 13 December 2017 meeting and Auckland Transport’s responses are provided in the table below (resolution number PPK/2017/269).
Table 2 – responses to local board resolutions
That the Papakura Local Board: |
|
b) reiterate its concern at the ongoing delays being experienced in relation to Auckland Transport’s lodgement of the business case to the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) for funding for the multi-storey park and ride facility at the Papakura train station and urgently request confirmed timeframes for lodgement. |
Though there have been delays in completing the business case for NZTA funding, as previously reported, this project is still progressing and is a committed project. A recent development regarding a proposed expansion of the existing bus station will impact on the Park and Ride project as the expansion will extend into the Park and Ride site.
Auckland Transport are currently assessing options and the impact of the bus station expansion to the Park and Ride project. The business case to NZTA is expected to be finalised in March for lodging with NZTA shortly after.
This will impact on the construction timeline which at this early stage, is unlikely to take place this financial year. Updates of the progress of this project will be formally reported back to the local board via the monthly reports. |
c) request an update on the timeframe for the replacement of the covered walkway panels at the corner of Averill Street and Railway Street West. |
Majority of the work was completed on the week of the 16th of February 2018.
This included an extension of the curb to reduce risk of damage to the cover over the walkway, repair to the previously damaged sections of structure framework of the cover, replacement of the glass on the covered walkway and formalisation of bus layovers on Railway Street West, Opaheke, O'Shannessey Streets and Chapel Road.
|
d) request Auckland Transport to undertake an investigation into the Pararekau Road drainage project and provide an explanation for the length of time it has taken to complete the project and report this back to the board at the 28 February 2018 business meeting. |
The management of access to the road corridor is a regulatory function of Auckland Transport. Requests to undertake work in the road corridor by utility operators or private developers are required to be approved within the statutory timeframe of 15 working days of receipt of a complying application as specified by the National Code of Practice for Utility Operators' Access to Transport Corridors
In the majority of cases, these approvals are tied to an approved council consent with conditions for a traffic management plan and a requirement to apply to Auckland Transport for Corridor Access Request (CAR) to undertake those works.
The works on Parerekau Road are part of major infrastructure works for the provision of stormwater services for 2 private developments on the Hingaia Peninsula. These projects were consented and approved to undertake works within the road corridor.
The first stage of work, started in January 2017 and was expected to take 3 months, but due to unsuitable ground conditions, required an extension of 3 months to complete the works.
Stage 2 of the works could only take place on the completion of the first stage of works and is currently on schedule and nearing completion. Works are due to be completed in March 2018 at the latest.
On the completion of the works, the road will be reinstated by the contractor and audited by Auckland Transport.
As part of the works, one of the contracting companies installed drainage on sections of the western side of Pararekau Road, at their own cost, which has seen an improvement to drainage on that side of the road.
Auckland Transport’s Compliance Auditing team have also confirmed that they have been monitoring the traffic management on Parerekau Road on a regular basis over the past year and that the contractors have complied with their consents and traffic management plans.
|
e) request Auckland Transport to investigate the cost of removing the cycleway along the Great South Road altogether. |
Removal of a cycleway is not in keeping with current Auckland Transport policy. As previously advised to the local board, there is currently an investigation into replacing the existing cycleway along Great South Road, Takanini with a bus/ T2/3 lane. This was discussed in workshop with local board members on the 11 October 2018 and feedback was received from the local board.
Preferences from elected members included the provision of an off-road shared cycle/ pedestrian path and the on-road facility to accommodate a T2/3 lane rather than being a permanent bus lane.
Currently this project is on hold pending decisions related to funding.
|
f) request Auckland Transport to reduce the speed limit on Airfield Road outside the Holy Trinity School to 40 km/h.
|
The conditions for reducing the speed outside a school are currently are set by NZTA, Traffic Note 37 - 40km/h variable speed limits in school zones - guidelines', which is appended to this report as attachment C.
As specified in NZTA Traffic Note 37, Holy Trinity School does not meet the requirements for a variable speed reduction on Airfield Road.
A workshop is being arranged with Auckland Transport’s Senior Road Safety Engineer to discuss the concerns of the board and to determine whether there are other options available to the local board. |
g) request a meeting to be organised with board members, the ward councillors and Auckland Transport’s Chief Executive to discuss the application of the policy around speed limits outside schools and other transport related matters in the Papakura area. |
The new Chief Executive (CE) Shane Ellison, was appointed to his role with Auckland Transport in December 2017. His current priorities are to establish relationships with institutional partners (i.e. Auckland Council, CCO's, NZTA, MoT, KiwiRail, etc.) and develop a detailed understanding of Auckland Transports operations.
The CE has stated that as soon as possible, he will establish direct relationships with local boards and come out to meet them.
The issues relating to speed limits raised in this resolution and other transport matters can be raised with the CE at this time.
As requested at the 7 February 2018 workshop, a workshop is being arranged to discuss the local boards concerns about the speed limits around schools. |

Local impacts and local board views
Consultation
13. Auckland Transport provides local boards with the opportunity to comment on transport projects being delivered in the Papakura Local Board area.

Traffic Control Committee (TCC) decisions
15. Traffic Control Committee decisions within the Papakura local board area are reported on a monthly basis. There were no decisions for the period December 2017 to January 2018.
March Madness
16. March is usually the busiest period for public transport as students head back to school and people return from the summer break and settle back into work. To address this peak usage period, Auckland Transport is planning to increase services to cope with the increased numbers of customers using public transport in late February and March.
17. Additional bus capacity is being provided on main corridors in addition to the recent greater capacity provided in June and December 2017 with full service network upgrades in West and East Auckland which provide a good base for March Madness annual transport demand peak.
18. Additional rail capacity provided for the morning peak mean that during peak times, all services on the Western, Eastern and Southern Lines are six-car sets.
19. Close monitoring of all ferry services will be undertaken in particular on Hobsonville and West Harbour with additional capacity potentially available if necessary.
Transport Statistics reporting
20. Overall public transport totalled 91.1 million boardings in the 12 months to December 2017, an increase of 7.4 percent, or 6.3 million boardings. .

31. Typically, for the last week weeks of February, the congestion continues to get slightly worse, peaking to an expected 33% of the network being considered congested in March.
Safer Communities project – Papakura
32. Papakura has been selected as one of three locations for the Safer Communities Project to be initially trialled. The Safer Communities Project seeks to improve road safety in communities and promote active modes of transport by improving pedestrian infrastructure.
33. The Safer Communities Project aims to:
· Make Papakura more ‘walkable’
· Improve safety and ease of walking for pedestrians
· Make it easier for people to connect with train and buses
34. This project examines how the active transport network can be developed to support the growth in future population and employment density by:
· Investigating and recommending improvements that promote and attract active transport modes.
· Focusing on strategic improvements, rather than on specific isolated treatments.
· Identifying treatments that could attract new users.
· Reducing safety risks for pedestrians and other road users, particularly around schools, transport hubs and town centres.
35. The community feedback from consultation, which was held in October 2017, has been collated and is being used to develop a priority list of projects to improve the walkability in and around the Papakura Town Centre. A workshop is to be held on the 21 February 2018 to present the feedback from the community and seek input from the local board.
36. This project is expected to be delivered over the next 2 years and take into account the work by the Papakura Commercial Project, Integrated Area Plan for Manurewa, Takanini and Papakura and the recent Safety Audit of the Papakura Town Centre by Auckland Councils Empowering Communities unit.
Papakura Train Station gating project
37. Auckland Transport is currently nearing the completion of a region wide programme to install electronic ticket gates at various stations on the rail network. This includes Papakura which is set to be operational in June 2018. This is part of a programme to improve public transport safety and security across the rail network. Papakura was reported at 18.5% fare evasion.
Works include the installation of fencing and electronic ticket gates at 2 locations on the Papakura station which will be staffed during operational hours. The footbridge access will remain open 24/7.
38. This project has an estimated cost of $1.65M
Footpath repair on Settlement Road
39. A request was received from a member of the public via the chair of the Papakura Local Board to repair of the footpath outside Papakura Intermediate on Settlement Road in March 2017. The works were scheduled for July 2017 but unfortunately were not carried as advised to the local board.
40. The request for the footpath repair was recently raised and contractors have been out to meet with the Principal of the school to organise a suitable time to undertake the works. An update of when those works will take place will be provided to the local board once those details are confirmed.
New Rollerson Road footpath
41. Auckland Transport has a list of approximately 500 sections of new footpath for consideration across Auckland.
42. A section of Rollerson Road, Papakura, currently only has a footpath down the western side of the street. A footpath was not installed when the area was first established.
43. A request for a footpath to be installed the opposite side of the street has been received and is prioritised for investigation and design in 2017/18 and constructed in 2018/19.

Amendment to resolution for a licence to occupy on Keri Downs Park, 200R Dominion Road, Papakura
File No.: CP2018/00296
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. To amend the 25 October 2017 resolution which granted a new licence to occupy to the Papakura Tongan Community Association on Keri Downs Park in Papakura, to reflect the new legal name of the tenant.
Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary
2. At the Papakura Local Board meeting on 25 October 2017, the board approved two licenses to occupy to two Tongan community garden groups on Keri Downs Park (PPK/2017/228). One group, the Papakura Tongan Community Association Incorporated, needed to re-register with the New Zealand Companies Office as their registration was removed in August 2015.
3. Under the terms of the Community Occupancy Guidelines 2012 a group must be a legal entity that is registered with the New Zealand Companies Office as an incorporated society or charitable trust to be eligible for a licence to occupy (or community lease). The group was registered under the name of Papakura Tongan Otu Motu Anga’ofa Society Incorporated on 14 December 2017. Staff request that the resolution be amended to reflect the new name of the group.
Horopaki / Context
4. At its 25 October 2017 meeting the local board granted a licence to occupy to the Papakura Tongan Community Association Incorporated, on condition of them being re-registered with the New Zealand Companies Office. The group had been struck-off in August 2015.
5. The board resolved under resolution number PPK/2017/228:
“That the Papakura Local Board:
b) grant a licence to occupy, under the Local Government Act 2002, to the Papakura Tongan Community Association Incorporated, for the land at Keri Downs Park, 200R Dominion Road, Papakura (outlined in blue in Attachment B to the report entitled “Licence to occupy for community garden at Keri Downs Park, 200R Dominion Road, Papakura”) under the following terms and conditions:
i) Term – one (1) year commencing 1 October 2017, with one, one (1) year right-of-renewal upon re-registration with the New Zealand Companies Office;
ii) Rent - $1.00 (plus GST) per annum, if demanded.”
6. The group’s application of 5 September 2017, to garden land at Keri Downs Park was in the name of the Papakura Tongan Community Association Incorporated. This group had originally held a memorandum of understanding (together with the ‘Ofa Relief Club Incorporated) with the Papakura District Council to establish a community garden on land at Keri Downs Park. This agreement terminated on 30 August 2013.
7. On 19 August 2015, the Papakura Tongan Community Association Incorporated was struck-off the New Zealand Companies Office register. A local board member has been working with the group to ensure they regained legal status with the New Zealand Companies Office.
8. Under the Community Occupancy Guidelines 2012 a licence to occupy can only be entered into with a group that is a legal entity and has a not-for-profit status. Eligible groups are required to be registered under the Incorporated Societies Act 1908 or the Charitable Trusts Act 1957.
9. The group was registered under the name of Papakura Tongan Otu Motu Anga’ofa Society Incorporated on 14 December 2017. The name translates as Papakura Tongan Island Friendly Society.
Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe / Local impacts and local board views
10. The recommendations within this report fall within the local board’s allocated authority to grant licenses to occupy on local reserves in line with the Community Occupancy Guidelines 2012.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact statement
11. The recommendations within this report are procedural and therefore do not impact on Māori.
Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps
12. The licence to occupy will be redrafted in the new name of the group and sent to the group for execution.

Horopaki / Context
6. Eye on Nature (EON), organised by the Manukau Beatification Trust, is an annual event that the board has supported in the past. The event promotes sustainable practices in its activities and encourages its participants to make a lifestyle change towards sustainable behaviours at home and school.
7. The theme for the 2018 EON is ‘Nurturing our Forests Together Whakatipuria to Tātou Waonui ā Tāne ngātahi ai’. It explores the importance of the many life forms in the forest, the natural compost floor, healthy trees, native life, pests, predators and how it all intricately works together.
8. The event will be held 10-12 April 2018 and will host around 500 students from 48 different schools. Six of these schools are within the Papakura Local Board area.
9. The Manukau Beautification Trust is seeking $2,000 from each of the six southern local boards and would be grateful for any additional financial assistance if the boards felt inclined.
10. Funding has been requested to cover three educational school days, infrastructure for the event, competition prizes and entertainment.
11. The Papakura Local Board is one of six local boards (Howick, Manurewa, Franklin, Ōtara-Papatoetoe, Māngere-Ōtāhuhu and Papakura) that is being asked to contribute to the EON event. Financial contributions from other boards have varied between $5,000 and $12,000.
12. The Papakura Local Board granted the EON event $662 in the 2015/2016 financial year. A grant application from the Manukau Beautification Trust for funding for this event in the 2016/2017 financial year was declined as the trust is a Council Controlled Organisation (CCO) of council and is no longer able to apply to the board for a community grant.
13. However, the board may use its discretion to allocate funding from the Community Response Fund.
14. The Manukau Beautification Trust has regularly reported back to the board on the outcomes of the event.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
15. The Eye on Nature Event aligns to the local board plan outcome 5 – treasured for its environment and heritage.
16. The board has discretion to allocate funds from the Community Response Fund. Currently there is $4,000 in the fund to allocate.
17. If the board contributes $2,000 to this event, six schools from the Papakura Local Board area would benefit. The anticipated benefit is that the students will use the knowledge to change their own behaviour and influence behaviour change with their colleagues and family.
18. It is recommended that the board allocate $2,000 from the Community Response Fund as their contribution to the Eye on Nature 2018 event.
19. If the board decided not to fund the event, the Trust may need to scale back the educational school days. This could impact on the number of students or schools that could attend.

· The year-end outlook is that 40 per cent of measures will not achieve target.
· Currently all performance measures are being reviewed as part of the development of the 2018-2028 Long Term Plan.
· For the first and second quarter staff 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 staff 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.
13. Planning and development is on track. The key areas of below-target performance are related to Parks, Sport and Recreation, Community Services and Environmental management activity (see Table 1 below).

Background of the Aircraft Noise Community Consultative Group
7. The Aircraft Noise Community Consultative Group (ANCCG) was set up under the conditions of Auckland Airport’s designation in the Manukau Operative District Plan. It is an independently chaired group that makes recommendations to Auckland Airport on aircraft noise issues and concerns that arise from the airport’s operations and activities.
8. The ANCCG is tasked with:
· Identifying community concerns regarding aircraft noise
· Cooperatively formulating and proposing rules and procedures to minimise aircraft noise impact on the surrounding community
· Assisting and advising Auckland Airport in the dissemination of relevant information to the community
· Assisting Auckland Airport in the preparation of a Noise Management Plan
· Monitoring noise levels and compliance with the noise abatement procedures and Noise Management Plan
· Accessing appropriate technical expertise and guidance as required.
9. The group is made up of representatives from Auckland Council including local boards, the Board of Airline Representatives New Zealand (BARNZ), Airways New Zealand, Auckland Airport, the business community and Tangata Whenua.
10. The terms of reference for the ANCCG can be found in Attachment A.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
11. It is recommended that the board appoint a new representative to the ANCCG.

Additions to the 2016-2019 Papakura Local Board meeting schedule
File No.: CP2018/01398
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. Seeking approval for two meeting dates to be added to the 2016-2019 Papakura Local Board meeting schedule in order to accommodate the Long-term Plan timeframes.
Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary
2. The Papakura Local Board adopted the 2016-2019 meeting schedule on 16 November 2017.
3. At that time the specific times and dates for meetings for local board decision making in relation to the local board agreement as part of the 2018-28 Long-term Plan were unknown.
4. The board is being asked to approve two meeting dates as additions to the Papakura Local Board meeting schedule so that the Long-term Plan timeframes can be met.
Horopaki / Context
5. The Local Government Act 2002 (LGA) and the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA) have requirements regarding local board meeting schedules.
6. 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.
7. The Papakura Local Board adopted its business meeting schedule at its 16 November 2016 business meeting.
8. The timeframes for local board decision making in relation to the local board agreement which is part of the 2018-28 Long-term Plan were unavailable when the meeting schedule was originally adopted.
9. The board is being asked to make decisions in early May and early June to feed into the Long-term Plan process. These timeframes are outside the board’s normal meeting cycle.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
10. The board has two choices:
i) Add the two meetings as extraordinary meetings. This would mean only the specific topic may be considered for which the meeting is being scheduled for.
or
ii) Add the meetings as additions to the meeting schedule. This would mean other topics may be considered as per any other ordinary meeting.
11. In terms of statutory requirements there is enough time to allow these meetings to be scheduled as additions to the meeting schedule.
12. Staff advice is that since there is enough time to meet statutory requirements, the best approach would be to approve these meetings as additions to the meeting schedule as it allows more flexibility for the board to consider a range of issues.
Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te

Local impacts and local board views
13. This report requests the board’s decision to schedule two additional meetings and consider whether to approve them as extraordinary meetings or additions to the meeting schedule.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact statement
14. There is no specific impact for Māori arising from this report.
Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications
15. There are no financial implications in relation to this report apart from the normal costs associated with servicing a business meeting.
Ngā raru tūpono / Risks
16. There are no significant risks associated with this report.
Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps
17. The next steps would be to implement the processes associated with preparing for business meetings.

Papakura Local Board Governance Forward Work Calendar - February 2018
File No.: CP2018/01493
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. To present the six months Governance Forward Work Calendar to the Board.
Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary
2. This report introduces the Governance Forward Work Calendar: a schedule of items that will come before local boards at business meetings and workshops over the next six months. The Governance Forward Work Calendar for the Papakura Local Board is included in Attachment A.
3. The calendar aims to support local boards’ governance role by:
i) ensuring advice on agendas and workshop material is driven by local board priorities
ii) clarifying what advice is required and when
iii) clarifying the rationale for reports.
4. The calendar will be updated every month, be included on the agenda for business meetings and distributed to relevant council staff. It is recognised that at times items will arise that are not programmed. Board members are welcome to discuss changes to the calendar.
Ngā tūtohunga / Recommendation/s That the Papakura Local Board: a) note the Governance Forward Work Calendar as at 19 February 2018.
|
Horopaki / Context
5. The council’s Quality Advice Programme aims to improve the focus, analysis, presentation and timeliness of staff advice to elected representatives. An initiative under this is to develop forward work calendars for governing body committees and local boards. These provide elected members with better visibility of the types of governance tasks they are being asked to undertake and when they are scheduled.
6. Although the document is new, there are no new projects in the Governance Forward Work Calendar. The calendar brings together in one schedule reporting on all of the board’s projects and activities that have been previously approved in the local board plan, long-term plan, departmental work programmes and through other board decisions. It includes governing body policies and initiatives that call for a local board response.
7. This initiative is intended to support the boards’ governance role. It will also help staff to support local boards by providing an additional tool to manage workloads and track activities across council departments, and it allow greater transparency for the public.
8. The calendar is arranged in three columns, “Topic”, “Purpose” and “Governance Role”:
i) Topic describes the items and may indicate how they fit in with broader processes such as the annual plan.
ii) Purpose indicates the aim of the item, such as formally approving plans or projects, hearing submissions or receiving progress updates.
iii) Governance role is a higher-level categorisation of the work local boards do. Examples of the seven governance categories are tabled below:
Governance role |
Examples |
Setting direction / priorities / budget |
Capex projects, work programmes, annual plan |
Local initiatives / specific decisions |
Grants, road names, alcohol bans |
Input into regional decision-making |
Comments on regional bylaws, policies, plans |
Oversight and monitoring |
Local board agreement, quarterly performance reports, review projects |
Accountability to the public |
Annual report |
Engagement |
Community hui, submissions processes |
Keeping informed |
Briefings, cluster workshops |
9. Board members are welcome to discuss changes to the calendar. The calendar will be updated and reported back every month to business meetings. Updates will also be distributed to relevant council staff.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
10. This report is an information report providing the governance forward work programme for the next six months.

11. All local boards are being presented with Governance Forward Work Calendars for their consideration.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact statement
12. The projects and processes referred to in the Governance Forward Work Calendar will have a range of implications for Māori which will be considered when the work is reported.
Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications
13. There are no financial implications relating to this report.
Ngā raru tūpono / Risks
14. This report is a point in time of the governance forward work calendar. It will be updated monthly. It minimises the risk of the board being unaware of planned topics for their consideration.
Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps
15. Staff will review the calendar each month in consultation with board members and will report an updated calendar to the board.
