3 Declaration
of Interest
Members are reminded of the need to be vigilant to stand aside from
decision making when a conflict arises between their role as a member and any
private or other external interest they might have.
The Auckland Council Code of Conduct for Elected Members (the Code)
requires elected members to fully acquaint themselves with, and strictly adhere
to, the provisions of Auckland Council’s Conflicts of Interest
Policy. The policy covers two classes of conflict of interest:
i)
A financial conflict of interest, which
is one where a decision or act of the local board could reasonably give rise to
an expectation of financial gain or loss to an elected member; and
ii)
A non-financial conflict interest, which
does not have a direct personal financial component. It may arise, for
example, from a personal relationship, or involvement with a non-profit
organisation, or from conduct that indicates prejudice or predetermination.
The Office of the Auditor General has produced guidelines to help
elected members understand the requirements of the Local Authority
(Member’s Interest) Act 1968. The guidelines discuss both types of
conflicts in more detail, and provide elected members with practical examples
and advice around when they may (or may not) have a conflict of interest.
Copies of both the Auckland Council Code of Conduct for Elected
Members and the Office of the Auditor General guidelines are available for
inspection by members upon request.
Any questions relating to the Code or the guidelines may be directed
to the Relationship Manager in the first instance.

Lysander
Crescent Reserve Development
File No.: CP2018/05166
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. To
present and seek approval for the concept design for the development of
Lysander Crescent Reserve.
Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary
2. Lysander
Crescent Reserve play space and pathways are due for renewal. There is an
opportunity to improve the facilities and add further play elements and
furniture as part of the redevelopment of the reserve.
3. The
Kaipatiki Local Board supported the preparation of a concept plan for the
reserve. This has been completed and this report seeks approval of the design
and the allocation of additional locally driven initiative (LDI) funding to
enable the project to progress to detailed design.
|
Ngā tūtohunga / Recommendation/s
That the Kaipatiki Local Board
:
a) approve
the developed design proposal (concept plan) dated February 2018 as attached
to the agenda report for the development of Lysander Crescent Reserve.
b) approve
the allocation of additional funding of $49,200 to the Lysander Crescent
Reserve project from its locally driven initiative (LDI) capital budget in
financial year 2018/2019 to account for the addition of further play elements
and furniture as part of the redevelopment of the reserve.
|
Horopaki / Context
The issue
4. The
Lysander Crescent Reserve playspace and pathway were identified for renewal in
financial year 2018.
5. Play
space activities and play value within the reserve are limited, and the local
board recognised an opportunity to improve the facilities within the reserve as
part of the renewal project.
Previous decisions
6. The
local board requested that the local community was consulted with on their
vision for the reserve. Community consultation was undertaken in October 2017
with local neighbours, park visitors and local businesses adjacent to the
reserve.
7. Feedback
on the concept options was presented to the local board at a workshop in
November 2017. At this workshop, the local board made a request for additional
items to be incorporated into the design.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
8. A
revised developed design proposal was prepared, and this was presented to the
local board at a workshop on 14 March 2018. As part of the revised design
process, safety in design principles were considered and a cost estimate prepared.
9. The
revised design is included as Attachment A and includes –
· a larger
basketball space;
· basketball
containment fencing;
· furniture;
· climbing bars
and a basket swing;
· pathway;
· a drinking
fountain;
· passive
surveillance; and
· a mural (this
has been completed).
Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te
poari ā-rohe /
Local impacts and local board views
10. The
local board indicated their support of the revised design at the workshop on 14
March 2018.
11. Further
investigation into the position of the proposed shade sail was requested, to
ensure shade is provided at the most appropriate time of the day. This will be
considered as part of the detailed design process. The location of the shade
sail within the developed design proposal is indicative only.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact
statement
12. The project is part of the renewal programme, so engagement with
mana whenua on this specific project has not been undertaken. It was considered
that there was no particular relevance for Maori more than any other part of
the community.
Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications
13. Existing
play space and furniture items will be renewed to the current design standards,
and will be funded through council’s captial renewal programme.
14. The
inclusion of additional play and structural elements within the revised design
will require additional funding from the local board’s locally driven
initiatives (LDI) capital budget. The additional elements are:
|
Reserve item
|
Estimate of cost
|
|
Basketball containment fence
|
$7,000
|
|
Shade sail
|
$15,000
|
|
Drinking fountain and utilities connection
|
$14,000
|
|
Additional block wall to screen shop lean-to
|
$5,000
|
|
Total
|
$41,000
|
|
Contingency
|
$ 8,200
|
|
Total LDI capital funding required
|
$49,200
|
15. Greater
shade sail coverage could be included within the final detailed design; however
the location of trees and the height of play equipment structures may limit the
location of the sails. LDI capital funding of $10,000 in addition to the
$15,000 estimated, could be considered.
16. It
is recommended that LDI captial funding of $49,200 in financial year 2018/2019
is allocated to the project. This will enable the reserve to be developed and
constructed as proposed in the developed design proposal. A contingency sum has
been included to allow for any potential construction cost increases that may
occur.
Ngā raru tūpono / Risks
17. There is a
risk that the project will be delayed if the developed design proposal is not
approved, and additional LDI capital funding is not allocated. In order to meet
the local board’s preferred time frame for delivery prior to mid-December
2018, the design and funding need to be approved in April 2018.
Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps
18. If the
recommendation is supported by the local board, the project will be progressed
through the detailed design and procurement phases to enable construction in
early summer.
19. The local
community, shop tenants and owners will also be informed of the local
board’s decision, and the proposed time frame for construction.

Concept Design for the Jean Sampson
Reserve Toilet
File No.: CP2018/05251
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. To
seek approval from the Kaipātiki Local Board to proceed with the concept
design for the new toilet block at Jean Sampson Reserve, as presented in Attachment
A.
Whakarāpopototanga matua /
Executive summary
2. The
public toilets at 3 Bartley Street, Northcote Point are to be demolished and
rebuilt at a new location in Jean Sampson Reserve, Northcote Point (resolution
number KT/2017/129).
3. A
concept design has been developed for the proposed new toilets at Jean Sampson
Reserve (refer Attachment A).
4. The
design is a two pan facility which has been adapted to fit within the heritage
characteristics of Northcote Point, which are defined in the Auckland Unitary
Plan as “Victorian, Edwardian and early 20th century architectural style
villas and bungalows”.
5. The
design has also been undertaken according to crime prevention through
environmental design (CPTED) standards, to minimise the likelihood of
antisocial behaviours occurring at the new facilities, as has previously
occurred at 3 Bartley Street.
6. Funding
of up to $380,000 is identified in the Kaipātiki Local Board Community
Facilities Work Programme (resolution number KT/2017/90) to implement the
concept design as presented in Attachment A. The funding identified is
considered to be sufficient.
7. Following
approval by the Kaipātiki Local Board, the concept can be progressed to
the detailed design and planning in order to undertake physical works in
financial year 2018/2019.
|
Ngā tūtohunga / Recommendation/s
That the Kaipātiki Local
Board:
a) approve
the concept design for the new toilet block at Jean Sampson Reserve, as
presented in Attachment A to the agenda report.
|
Horopaki / Context
8. In
September 2017 the Kaipatiki Local Board resolved to renew the public toilet at
3 Bartley Street, Northcote Point by demolishing the existing toilet and
rebuilding at a new location in Jean Sampson Reserve, Northcote Point
(resolution number KT/2017/129).
9. As
per the 20 September report to the Kaipātiki Local Board, the new toilet
design at Jean Sampson Reserve was to include:
· The design would be a modern facility providing two unisex toilets
customised to suit the site;
· The design of the building would need to be durable and sympathetic
to Northcote Point’s heritage.
· The new facility would provide an accessible toilet with a possible
baby changing facility;
· A water fountain can easily be easily to the site, as well as a bike
stand;
· The new facility could be located near park assets, where the
existing vegetation provides some screening but the entrance way is visible
from the road and open area of the park; and
· The suggested location would provide easy connection to the existing
wastewater system and the on-road water connection.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu /
Analysis and advice
10. Attachment
A shows the concept design developed for the new toilets at Jean Sampson
Reserve, including the preferred location within the reserve.
11. The
location for the new toilet was selected based on the below benefits:
· a good level of separation between toilet and picnic area /
playground;
· a good level of separation between the toilet and neighbouring
properties;
· water fountain and toilet services are close together;
· no tree removals will be required;
· retains clear sight lines of playground and picnic area from street;
· visible and accessible to pedestrians / cyclists from the street;
and
· orientation is to ensure parents can see their children go to the
toilet from the playground, while maintaining passive surveillance from the
street.
12. The
toilet building is a two pan permaloo design, which has been adapted to fit
within the local neighbourhood. The design theme was defined using the heritage
characteristics of the area which are identified in the Auckland Unitary Plan
as “Victorian, Edwardian and early 20th century architectural style
villas and bungalows”.
13. The
toilets themselves are both unisex, all accessible and will include baby
changing tables
14. The
concept design also includes
· a new concrete path connecting the toilet to the street and to the
basketball court and playground;
· bike racks;
· drinking fountain with a dog bowl; and
· native shrub and native tree planting to better blend in the back of
the toilet block into the rest of the reserve.
15. The
Northcote Point Heritage Preservation Society have reviewed the concept design
and have commented that they do not identify any heritage issues with the
design, stating "This land was once occupied by old villas which were
demolished as the start to the original roads on to/off the bridge. When the
route was changed to the current route, demolition ceased. The design shown
seems visually compatible / sympathetic”.
Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me
ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe / Local impacts and local board views
16. The boards
preference was for an off the shelf variety of toilet that can be adapted to
fit in with the local area, rather than a bespoke design. The concept design
reflects this preference, as permaloo toilets are precast concrete toilets that
arrive on site ready to connect and use.
17. During the
public consultation for the options for the Bartley Street toilet, undertaken
between 7 July 2017 and 31 July 2017, the two main concerns raised in regards
to a Bartley Street toilets being relocated to Jean Sampson Reserve were:
· the
problems with antisocial behaviour would continue in the new location; and
· the
appearance of a new toilet would not fit with the heritage values of the area.
18. These two
concerns have been addressed in the concept design, where:
· the
design has been adapted to fit with the heritage area overlay in the Auckland
Unitary Plan; and
· the
design has been undertaken according to crime prevention through environmental
design (CPTED) standards, it is in a location where passive surveillance is
enhanced, and the toilets can be locked at night.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact statement
19. Auckland
Council is committed to meeting its responsibilities under Te Tiriti o Waitangi
and its broader legal obligations to Māori. The council recognises these
responsibilities are distinct from the Crown’s Treaty obligations and
fall within a local government Tāmaki Makaurau context. These commitments
are articulated in the council’s key strategic planning documents: the
Auckland Plan, the 2015-2025 Long-term Plan, the Unitary Plan and local board
plans.
20. Engagement
with iwi identified as having an interest in the Kaipātiki Local Board was
undertaken by way of an email to seek any expression of interest in the
project.
21. Te
Runanga o Ngati Whatua provided a response outlining their support for the
concept design. Guidance and advice on the importance of ensuring that
appropriate care is taking for areas of earthworks where archaeological
evidence could be accidentally uncovered was also provided. As such, an
archaeological report will be conducted along with archaeological monitoring in
the proximity of the known heritage and cultural sites identified in the
report. Otherwise the accidental discovery protocol will be adhered to.
22. Te
Runanga o Ngati Whatua also requested the below points, which have been
incorporated in to the scope of the project:
· that any intrusive works
be kept to a minimum as much as practicable;
· that
any required landscaping works adopt the Te Aranga Design Principles;
· that,
where possible, locally sourced natural materials are utilised;
· it
is also important to try and ensure cut or fill material is not removed from or
imported to site to protect what remains of the mauri of the original land;
· earthwork
activities should follow robust sediment controls to ensure harbour or inlet
edge protection of a significant ecological area; and
· stormwater
run-off management via on-site treatment rather than mere drainage or discharge
to the receiving environment. Iwi preference is through cost-effective
mechanisms such as utilising permeable materials in place of impervious
concrete, along with the installation of riparian planting, vegetated swales or
rain gardens. Iwi view every new construction project as playing a positive
role towards the enhancement of the Waitemata Harbour, and consequently
Auckland’s waterways, harbours and coasts healthy.
23. Te
Kawerau a Maki responded they would like to be kept updated through the project
but did not require further involvement at this time.
24. Ngaati
Whanaunga undertook a site visit to Jean Sampson Reserve with council staff on
22 March 2018. Ngaati Whanaunga supports the project and have also
requested a number of actions, as listed below, which will be incorporated in
to the detailed design and construction phase:
· move
the drinking fountain away from the toilet doors as much as possible, to
respect cultural practices of not mixing toilet areas and drinking water;
· take
into account Te Aranga Design Principles by incorporating Māori patterning
in the concrete work and using Māori names where possible; and
· support
an archaeological assessment to be undertaken and accidental discovery protocol
be adhered to during any earthworks.
Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications
25. Funding
of up to $380,000 is identified in the Kaipātiki Local Board Community
Facilities Work Programme (resolution number KT/2017/90) for the renewal of the
Bartley Street toilets.
26. The
funding identified is considered to be sufficient for the delivery of the
concept design as presented in Attachment A.
Ngā raru tūpono / Risks
27. More
accurate cost details will be identified during the progression of the project
through detailed design and procurement. As a result, the budget required
may need to be reviewed as more detailed costs are received.
Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps
28. The concept
design for the new toilet at Jean Sampson Reserve has been designed and is
proposed to be located in a manner that does not require resource consent.
29. Following
approval by the Kaipātiki Local Board, the Community Facilities Project
Delivery Team can progress with the detailed design and planning for physical
works, with the aim to undertake physical works in financial year 2018/2019.
30. The
demolition of the toilets at 3 Bartley Street will need to be included in the
scope of the project. This will need to be aligned with the decision for the
future use of the land, which the Kaipatiki Bocal Board is currently working
through with the Community Facilities Stakeholders and Land Advisory team.
Resource consent for the demolition can still be sought while this process is
underway.

Disposal recommendations report - R25
Alfred Street, Northcote Point
File No.: CP2018/05248
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. This
report seeks the Kaipātiki Local Board’s
endorsement for Panuku Development Auckland (Panuku) to recommend to the
Finance and Performance Committee the disposal of one council owned property in
the Kaipātiki Local Board area.
Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary
2. The council-owned site at R25 Alfred Street, Northcote Point (also
known as Rosie Bolt Reserve) has been identified as potentially surplus
to council requirements through a review process. The
rationalisation process commenced in December 2016. Consultation with council
departments and its CCOs, iwi authorities and the Kaipātiki Local Board has now taken place.
3. The board is opposed to a disposal in principle on the basis that
it considers the subject site to be of significant heritage value.
Council’s Heritage and Built and Cultural Heritage Policy teams have
assessed the site and found it does not meet the criteria for historic heritage
significance to warrant it being formally scheduled. As no
alternative service use has been identified for the subject site through the
rationalisation process, Panuku recommends its disposal.
4. A
resolution approving the disposal of the subject site is required from the
Finance and Performance Committee before the proposed divestment can be
progressed.
|
Ngā tūtohunga / Recommendation/s
That the Kaipātiki Local
Board:
a) endorse Panuku Development Auckland’s recommendation to the
Finance and Performance Committee to dispose of R25 Alfred Street, Northcote
Point.
|
Horopaki / Context
5. Panuku
is required to undertake ongoing review of council’s property assets.
This includes identifying properties from within council’s portfolio that
are no longer required for council service purposes and may be suitable for
potential sale, and development if appropriate. Panuku has a particular focus
on achieving housing and urban regeneration outcomes. Identifying potential
sale properties contributes to the Long-term Plan 2015-2025 (LTP) and the
Auckland Plan focus of accommodating the significant growth projected for the
region over the coming decades, by providing council with an efficient use of
capital and prioritisation of funds to achieve its activities and projects.
6. Once
a property has been identified as potentially surplus, Panuku engages with
council departments and its CCOs 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 a final recommendation is made to the Finance and
Performance Committee.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
Property Information
7. R25 Alfred Street, Northcote Point is a vacant 472m2 site
formed as informal open space. It is the remainder of land acquired in 1923 by the former Northcote Borough Council for the purpose of a proposed pumping
station and road extension.
8. The subject site is
named for Rosie Bolt, a former adjoining land owner and the wife of
former Northcote Borough Councillor
Michael Gavin Bolt.
9. During a 2015 review, Watercare confirmed the subject site
is not a Watercare asset and it is not required for future infrastructure
purposes. Auckland Transport confirmed
it is not an AT asset and there is no strategic requirement for it to be
retained for transport infrastructure purposes. It was confirmed that R25 Alfred Street, Northcote Point was not
in council’s Community Facilities fixed asset register, with council’s Parks and Recreation Policy team providing
advice that the subject site is not required for an open space function as it
is located less than 300 metres away from Stafford Park and the site’s
size does not provide adequate area for a range of recreational experiences. R25 Alfred Street, Northcote Point was subsequently the subject of a Panuku led rationalisation process.
10. The
Auckland Unitary Plan zoning is residential - single house. It has a 2017
capital valuation of $680,000.
11. R25
Alfred Street, Northcote Point is not likely to subject to offer back
obligations to the former owner in accordance with section 40 of the Public
Works Act 1981.
Internal
Consultation
12. The
rationalisation process commenced in December 2016. No alternate service uses
for the subject site were identified during the internal consultation.

13. Panuku
consulted with the Kaipātiki Local Board Chair and
Deputy Chair regarding the subject site in August 2017.
14. At its 18
October 2017 business meeting, the board tabled information from former
Northcote Borough and North Shore City Councillor Mr Brian Putt regarding Rosie
Bolt Reserve. The board resolved that the information be forwarded to relevant
officers for consideration, that the board considers the subject site to be of
significant heritage value and is opposed to a disposal in principle.
15. Panuku attended a workshop with the board regarding R25 Alfred
Street, Northcote Point in February 2018. In response to its 18 October
2017 resolutions, the board was advised that council’s
Heritage and Built and Cultural Heritage Policy teams had assessed the subject site and advised that the former North Shore City
Council did not record the subject site as having heritage values. Based on the
information available, the Heritage and Built and Cultural Heritage Policy
teams advised that the subject site is not likely to meet the criteria for
historic heritage significance to warrant it being formally scheduled. The
board was also advised that council’s Community Facilities Arboricultural
and Ecology Specialist provided advice that there are no plant species of
significance present at R25 Alfred Street, Northcote Point.
16. This
report provides the board with an opportunity to
formalise its views regarding the subject site.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications
18. Capital
receipts from the sale of surplus properties contribute to Auckland Plan
outcomes and the LTP by providing the Council with an efficient use of capital
and prioritisation of funds to achieve its activities and projects. In the
2017/2018 financial year, the LTP has forecast the disposal of
non-strategic council assets to the combined value of of $67 million.
19. In accordance
with the Local Government Act 2002, the annual statement of intent states the

contribute to and performance measures and targets as the basis of
organisational accountability. For the 2017/2018 financial year Panuku is
required to identify properties from within council’s portfolio that may
be suitable for potential sale to a combined value of $60 million and to sell
$100 million of property by 30 June 2018.

Local Transport Capital Fund: options
for distribution and size of the fund
File No.: CP2018/05032
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. This
report seeks formal feedback from the local board on options for the future
size and underlying distribution methodology of the local transport capital
fund (LTCF) and on the proposal to increase advisory support for the fund from
Auckland Transport staff.
Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary
2. In
September 2017, the Governing Body agreed in principle to an increase to the
LTCF as an outcome of the governance framework review. Staff were directed to
undertake further work with Auckland Transport and local boards on the size of
the increase, and the distribution methodology.
3. The
LTCF was established in 2012 and currently sits at $10.8 million. It is
allocated on a pure population basis. Two options for the size of funding
increase have been modelled: an increase of $6 million and an increase of $10
million.
4. Staff
have also modelled three different distribution options: the current population
model, a model applying the Local Boards Funding Policy, and a model that
includes a mix of a fixed level of funding per board, along with a variable
rate determined by the Local Boards Funding Policy.
5. Each
of the options has been assessed against a set of criteria. The pure population
model is not supported by staff, while each of the other two models has merits.
On balance, staff recommend that the Local Boards Funding Policy be applied to
the distribution of the LTCF, with an additional amount of $10 million being
added to the fund. Feedback is sought from local boards on their views and
preferences.
6. It
is also recommended that Auckland Transport have funding allocated to provide
an increased level of support to local boards in developing and assessing local
transport projects.
7. Final
decisions will be made by the Governing Body as part of the 10-year budget
process in May.
|
Ngā tūtohunga / Recommendation/s
That the Kaipātiki Local
Board:
a) endorse
an increase to the local transport capital fund of $10 million per annum
(inflation adjusted) from 1 July 2018.
b) endorse
distribution of the entire local transport capital fund to be made according
to Auckland Council’s Local Boards Funding Policy from 1 July 2018.
c) endorse
Auckland Transport receiving additional funding to provide an increased level
of support to local boards in developing and assessing projects for the local
transport capital fund.
|
Horopaki / Context
8. The
LTCF was established by resolution of the Strategy and Finance Committee
(resolution number SF/2012/40) in April 2012. This was to provide local boards
with access to funding for transport projects that had strong local significance,
but which were unlikely to be prioritised through the regional transport
planning process.
9. Establishment
of the fund is consistent with the government’s original policy intent
that local boards would have a role in funding local transport projects out of
a dedicated local budget (Cabinet Minute (09) 30/10), and that “local
boards will have an advisory role with respect to transport services and a
budget for the transport elements of ‘place shaping’[1]”.
10. The
objectives of the fund are to:
· ensure
locally important transport projects are given appropriate priority; and
· provide
local boards with more direct ability to influence local transport projects.
11. Projects must
be deliverable, meet transport safety criteria and not compromise the network.
Auckland Transport retains responsibility for delivering projects delivered
through this funding and the budget remains with Auckland Transport.
Depreciation and consequential operating expenditure are also the
responsibility of Auckland Transport, as is the core administration of the
fund.
12. The fund was
initially set at $10 million per annum which has since been adjusted for
inflation, and now sits at $10.8 million. Funding is currently split between
local boards on the basis of population, excepting Waiheke and Great Barrier
Island local boards, which receive 2 per cent and 1 per cent of the fund
respectively. The population figures that the distribution is based on have
remained at 2012[2]
levels.
13. At the
Governing Body meeting of 28 September 2017, at which the recommendations of
the Governance Framework Review Political Working Party were considered, it was
agreed (resolution number GB/2017/117) that officers would report back to the
Governing Body through the 10-year budget process on options for significantly
increasing the LTCF, as well as providing an assessment of options for
allocating the additional funding.
14. This report
provides options for the quantum of the proposed increase, the method of
allocating the proposed increase among the 21 local boards, and issues relating
to the administration of the fund. Workshops have been held with each local
board to discuss these proposals and now formal feedback is sought through
business meetings. Final recommendations will be made to the Governing Body in
May 2018.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
15. Issues with
the LTCF identified through the Governance Framework Review were grouped under
three key themes:
· the
overall size, or quantum, of the LTCF;
· the
methodology underpinning its distribution among local boards; and
· the
administration and support provided by Auckland Transport to local boards in
relation to developing options and projects for consideration.
Quantum of funding
16. When the LTCF
was initially established at $10 million, the figure was not based on any
specific assessment of need, but more on the recognition that smaller, local
projects that had a strong place shaping component were unlikely to be funded
according to Auckland Transport and New Zealand Transport Agency’s (NZTA)
prioritisation formulas.
17. While the
fund took some time to get established, it is now delivering valuable transport
related outcomes for communities across Auckland. The LTCF spend forecast in
the 2016‑17 financial year was $17 million, as local boards have been
able to accumulate funding across years to put towards more significant
projects. LTCF funding has delivered 286 projects over the five-year period.
18. The LTCF
contribution to these local projects has also been complemented through the
input of additional funds from Auckland Transport (as well as NZTA subsidy)
with the value of the work they have delivered to their communities being
substantially leveraged through this additional funding.
19. Staff have
modelled the impact of the proposed increase on individual local boards
according to a range of distribution models. In doing so, two different levels
of increase have been used – the $10 million figure as initially proposed
by Auckland Transport, and a lower figure of $6 million.
20. Neither
figure is based on specific needs assessment, but Auckland Transport is of the
view that a baseline of approximately $650,000 a year per local board is
desirable to give individual boards the resources to support significant local
projects. This would require an increase of at least $6 million per annum.
21. Local boards
that have had access to higher levels of funding have generally found it easier
to leverage LTCF budget to attract NZTA subsidies and additional Auckland
Transport funding, e.g. projects that are being brought forward as a result of
LTCF investment. Successful examples include the Half Moon Bay ferry terminal,
the Mt Albert Station Bridge and the Māngere Future Streets project.
Distribution methodology
22. This section
provides modelling of three distribution options applied to two levels of
overall increase (sub-option A being an increase of $6 million, and sub-option
B being an increase of $10 million). The options are:
· Option
1: status quo – simple population-based distribution of both the existing
fund and any additional funding;
· Option
2: applying the current Local Boards Funding Policy to the distribution of the
fund; and
· Option
3: a model that provides for a fixed level of baseline funding for all boards,
as well as a variable component based on the Local Boards Funding Policy.
Population-based distribution
23. In 2012, the
Governing Body elected to distribute the first iteration of the LTCF purely on
a population basis, following consultation with local boards[3]. The distribution
has not been adjusted to account for population distribution changes since the
fund was established.
24. The option of
applying the population-based distribution methodology has been modelled (refer
Attachment A) based on Statistics New Zealand 2017 population estimates.
As is evident from the modelling, the impact on boards with higher populations
is the most significant in terms of an increase in funding, especially if the
additional amount is $10 million.
25. Under this
model, however, if the additional amount is $6 million, six boards would still
fall short of the $650,000 baseline figure identified by Auckland Transport as
being desirable to enable the delivery of viable local transport proposals.
Applying the Local Boards
Funding Policy to the LTCF
26. Following
establishment of the LTCF, work was undertaken to develop the current Local
Boards Funding Policy, as required under the Local Government (Auckland
Council) Act 2009. This policy was adopted in 2014 and uses an allocation
methodology incorporating three factors: population (90 per cent), deprivation
(5 per cent) and land area (5 per cent). This funding policy is currently
applied to locally driven initiatives funding, including the local driven
initiatives capital funding, but was not retrospectively applied to the LTCF.
27. Development
of the Local Boards Funding Policy involved significant consultation and
engagement with local boards prior to final adoption. There are no current
plans to review the policy.
28. The option of
applying the Local Boards Funding Policy to the distribution of the LTCF has
been modelled (refer Attachment B). This modelling has been applied to
the existing fund and the additional amounts of $6 million and $10 million and
is also based on 2017 population estimates.
Fixed and variable costs
distribution
29. As previously
noted, Auckland Transport has the view that to deliver transport infrastructure
of any significance, a certain level of baseline funding is desirable –
around $650,000 per annum per local board, based on practical experience.
30. Many local
boards have achieved significant results with their local transport projects,
but transport infrastructure is inherently costly, and costs tend not to vary
according to location. For example, a footbridge and walking path in Pukekohe
will tend to cost the same as a comparable one in Glenfield.
31. In
considering the distribution methodology for the extended fund, Auckland
Transport has put forward the following factors as being relevant:
· the
cost of building transport infrastructure is not directly related to the size
of the population it serves;
· mature
areas with high populations tend to already have higher quality and better
developed transport infrastructure;
· the
existing Auckland Transport/NZTA criteria for regional transport spending tend
to favour, as would be expected, areas of high density and growth; and
· the
physical size of an area tends to have a correlation with the need for
transport infrastructure e.g. the number of settlements, town centres.
32. A
distribution model based on a split of fixed and variable costs has also been
modelled as an option. The methodology involves 50 per cent of the entire
quantum of funding being distributed by an even split (except for Great Barrier
and Waiheke Island local boards which receive one third and two thirds of a
single share respectively), thus giving all other local boards the same level
of core funding. The other 50 per cent of the funding would be distributed according
to the Local Boards Funding Policy.
33. Options have
been modelled (refer Attachment C) to apply this fixed/variable costs
model to the distribution of the LTCF.
Assessing the options
34. Each of the
three distribution models has elements to recommend it and others that detract
from it. In assessing the models, the following assessment criteria have been
applied:
· transparency
and ease of understanding for communities and stakeholders;
· equity
and fairness of outcomes across the region;
· ensuring
delivery of good local transport outcomes; and
· recognising
the role of local boards as leaders of place shaping with their communities.
35. Assessment of
the options against these criteria is set out below.
Options 1a and 1b –
population-based distribution
36. These options
have been modelled on 2017 Statistics New Zealand population estimates.
37. A pure
population-based approach has the benefit of being objective, transparent and
straightforward and means that funding received is proportionate to the number
of ratepayers. It was however, recognised at the time that applying this
approach to areas of extremely low population (Waiheke and Great Barrier
Islands) would result in those boards receiving insufficient funding to achieve
anything practical, hence the application of the 1 and 2 per cent formula for
the island boards. A similar approach is also used in the Local Boards Funding
Policy.
38. The
limitations of this approach are that it does not address either the level of
need in a given local board area, or the underlying cost drivers of transport
infrastructure. Hence, large areas of low population density with significant
roading networks and multiple population centres are funded at the same, or
lower, level as smaller urban communities of interest with already
well-developed transport infrastructure, but higher population density.
39. The
distribution methodology is simple, transparent, and easy for communities and
stakeholders to understand. In terms of delivering equity and fairness, this
model delivers the widest differential of funding levels across boards, with
the highest funded board receiving 2.78 times the amount of the lowest funded
board (excluding the two island boards).
40. Option 1a
also results in six boards receiving less than Auckland Transport’s
benchmark identified as desirable for supporting good local transport outcomes
in communities. The model limits the potential for those boards to actively
implement their role as local place shapers and to leverage additional investment
into their projects. This model, and therefore Options 1a and 1b, is not
supported by either Auckland Council or Auckland Transport staff.
Options 2a and 2b –
Local Boards Funding Policy based distribution
41. This
distribution method involves application of the current Local Boards Funding
Policy. The policy is currently applied to distribution of funding for local
activities (including local capital expenditure) to local boards, and is based
on the following factors: 90 per cent population[4],
5 percent deprivation[5]
and 5 per cent land area[6].
42. Applying the
Local Boards Funding Policy is a simple methodology that has a clear rationale,
is easily described to the community and is consistent with council’s
wider approach to funding local boards. It takes account of multiple factors,
delivering a more equitable distribution of funding, especially to boards with
lower populations but very large land areas and roading networks.
43. Reviewing the
projects that have been funded from the LTCF to date, it is clear that much of
the local boards’ focus has been on ‘people-centred’
transport projects, for example pedestrian safety improvements, walkways and
cycleways, footpaths and streetscape improvements. This is consistent with the
principles underpinning the Local Boards Funding Policy, i.e. that population
is the key driver of need for the funding, but that geography and deprivation
also need to be considered.
44. This
distribution methodology evens out the increase in funding across the 21
boards. The boards with a larger land area receive more funding than under the
pure population model, and all boards receive the proposed level of baseline
funding, but only under the $10 million quantum increase.
45. Under this
model, however, the level of funding that accrues to the more populous boards
becomes very substantial in relation to that for the smaller boards, due to the
compounding impact of the distribution model. For example, the Howick Local
Board would receive over $1.7 million and Henderson-Massey over $1.4 million.
Despite these extremes, this option provides an arguably more equitable and
nuanced distribution of funding, as well as being consistent with current
funding policy.
46. Its variation
between the lowest and highest level of funding is still high, with the highest
funded board receiving 2.57 times the amount of the lowest funded board. Under
Option 2a, five boards still receive less than Auckland Transport’s
desirable benchmark for delivering good local transport outcomes in
communities, and it limits the potential for those boards to actively implement
their role as local place shapers.
47. This is the
preferred option based on consistency with the existing funding policy,
assessment against the criteria and recognition of the population focus of projects
delivered using this fund. The preferred option is for the $10 million quantum
as better providing for good local transport outcomes and delivering local
place shaping.
Options 3a and 3b –
fixed and variable cost distribution
48. This model is
more complex and less transparent to communities and stakeholders than the
other models. The identification of the benchmark figure is based on Auckland
Transport’s experience of administering the fund over the past five years
and the learning that has been gained from this, rather than in-depth financial
analysis of infrastructure costs.
49. The results
of this distribution are similar to applying the Local Boards Funding Policy,
in that a similar number of local boards benefit under each model. However, it
is different local boards that benefit from each model. In terms of equity and
fairness, this model reduces the difference between the highest funded and
lowest funded boards and also brings all boards above the $650,000 benchmark,
even under Option 3a ($6 million increase).
50. The model
reduces the impact of population on the distribution of funding however, which
is a core component of current funding policy and the focus of the projects
delivered using the LTCF. The model performs well against the criteria of
enabling the delivery of good local transport outcomes and supporting the role
of local boards as place shapers.
Summary of assessment of
options
51. Of the three
distribution models assessed, the current model of pure population distribution
performed the poorest and is not recommended by either Auckland Council or
Auckland Transport staff.
52. The other two
models deliver mixed results against the criteria. On balance, staff recommend
that the Local Boards Funding Policy distribution best meets the criteria and
is consistent with current funding policy. The final recommendation to the
Governing Body will also be informed by feedback from local boards through this
process.
Administration of the LTCF
53. When the LTCF
was established in 2012, it was recognised that there would be an impact on
Auckland Transport as the fund administrator. While design costs are
capitalised within the cost of a specific project, there are also additional
costs in developing options, undertaking feasibility studies, assessing
proposals and general administration.
54. It was noted
at the time that if each local board proposed three or four projects a year
that this could place a considerable burden on Auckland Transport, and it was
recommended that this be reviewed at the time the fund was reviewed. Given the
proposed increase to the size of the fund, this issue needs to be revisited.
55. Auckland
Transport’s advice on LTCF investment focusses on whether a project put
forward by a local board is technically feasible, and whether it is realistic
in light of the available funding from the LTCF. During the Governance
Framework Review, some local board members raised concerns about the nature and
quality of advice received from Auckland Transport in relation to LTCF proposals.
Local boards felt that advice was limited to assessing their proposal against
criteria, rather than helping them identify and develop high quality proposals.
56. It is
recommended that Auckland Transport be allocated additional operating
expenditure funding in support of the LTCF, to be used to develop a more
systematic and responsive work programme with local boards around the
application of the LTCF. This will include supporting boards to investigate and
develop options for projects for consideration. A sum of $500,000 per annum is
recommended to support this deliverable.
Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te
poari ā-rohe /
Local impacts and local board views
57. Workshops
have been held with every local board and a range of initial feedback has been
received. Discussion on collective views has also taken place at the Local
Board Chairs’ Forum. While some local boards have given early indication
of their preferred options, others have reserved the right to engage in further
consideration ahead of providing formal feedback.
58. There was
general support for an increase to the fund and for additional funding to be
provided to Auckland Transport to provide advice on projects. There were mixed
views on options for allocating the fund. As noted in the assessment of
options, each of the options for the amount of increase and the distribution
methodology affects individual boards differently.
59. Growth was
raised by some boards as a factor that should be considered. Staff’s view
is that the population element of each of the models addresses this, as current
population is the only reliable indicator of growth. Population estimates are
updated and will be applied to the distribution criteria of the fund annually.
60. As noted in
the assessment of options, each of the options for the amount of increase and
the distribution methodology affects individual boards differently. A recent
presentation to the Local Board Chairs’ Forum noted that it would be
helpful for the Governing Body to have a clear preference signalled by the
majority of local boards in order to facilitate its decision making.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact
statement
61. A move away
from a pure population-based distribution model would take into account
deprivation and land area factors. Both options 2 and 3 include a deprivation
component, although this is greater in option 2. This would have some positive
impact on local board areas where there is a higher Māori population.
Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications
62. The
source of the additional funding is not addressed in this report, as it is
being considered through the overall budget setting process in the 10-year
budget. Essentially however, there are two options that the Governing Body will
need to consider:
· that additional funding comes from rates
and/or borrowing; and/or
· Auckland Transport reprioritises within its existing funding
envelope.
63. The proposed
size of the increase to the fund (both options) is not significant enough
within the overall transport budget to be able to enable transparent trade-offs
at a detailed level e.g. which specific transport projects might not be funded
in the Regional Land Transport Plan in a given year if the LTCF is increased.
Ngā raru tūpono / Risks
64. No
significant risks have been identified
Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps
65. Final
decisions will be made by the Governing Body as part of the 10-year budget
process in May. Any new funding and change to the distribution methodology will
be applied from 1 July 2018.

priorities that are local in nature. The fund is split between local boards on
the basis of population, except for Waiheke and Great Barrier.
6. On
8 May 2014, the Budget Committee resolved to recommend that Auckland Transport
(AT) be requested to enable the Local Board Transport Capital Fund (LBTCF) to
be allocated outside the transport corridor where there is clear benefit in
terms of supporting alternative means of transport, including walking and
cycling.
7. Auckland
Transport retains responsibility for this budget and also needs to approve of
any project proposed.
8. Local boards can use this fund to deliver projects that they
consider are important in their areas but are not otherwise part of Auckland
Transport’s work programme.
9. This
fund is intended to allow local boards to build transport focused local
improvements in their areas. Ideally, these projects would be completed during
the term of the local board that initiated them. However, for those boards that
have yet to commit funding to projects, this is becoming increasingly unlikely.
10. One
of the requirements of the Local Board Transport Capital Fund is that the
budgets must be spent within the same electoral term, subject to Auckland
Transport having the ability to manage the cash flow. ‘Carry forwards’
to subsequent political terms are not allowed.
11. There is
currently $1,460,565 remaining in the Kaipatiki LBTCF to be allocated to the
board’s desired projects.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice
12. A full list
of the projects considered at the local board workshop on 7 March 2018 is
included at Attachment A.
13. The current
schedule of Local Board Capital Fund projects and allocations is included at Attachment
B.
14. The Kaipatiki
Local Board needs to resolve the projects they wish to progress along with a
monetary commitment.
Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te
poari ā-rohe / Local impacts and local board views
15. Local board
plan outcomes are a consideration in the allocation of these funds.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact
statement
16. No specific
issues with regards to impacts on Maori are triggered by this report, and any
engagement with Maori will be carried out on an individual project basis.
Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications
17. The financial
implication of the local board approving allocation of these funds will ensure
the full allocation is committed to projects and delivered within this current
electoral term.
Ngā raru tūpono / Risks
18. Auckland
Transport will put risk management strategies in place on a project-by-project
basis.
Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps
19. Auckland
Transport will progress the decisions made by the local board as a result of
this report, and will provide rough order of costs (ROCs) and updates via the
monthly reporting process.

Panuku Development Auckland Local Board
six-mothly update 1 September 2017 - 28 February 2018
File No.: CP2018/05250
Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report
1. To
update the Kaipātiki Local Board on Panuku Development Auckland (Panuku) activities
within the local board area for the six months from 1 September 2017 to 28 February 2018.
Whakarāpopototanga matua / Executive summary
2. Panuku
was established in September 2015 due to the merger of two council controlled
organisations (CCOs), Waterfront Auckland and Auckland Council Property Limited
(ACPL).
3. Panuku
helps to rejuvenate parts of Auckland, from small projects that refresh a site
or building, to major transformations of town centres or neighbourhoods.
4. Panuku
manages around $2 billion of council’s property portfolio, which is
continuously reviewed to find smart ways to generate income for the region,
grow the portfolio, or release land or property that can be better used by
others.
|
Ngā tūtohunga / Recommendation/s
That the Kaipātiki Local
Board:
a) receive the Panuku Development Auckland Local Board update for 1
September 2017 to 28 February 2018.
|
Horopaki / Context
Local
Activities
Development
5. Panuku
is contributing commercial input into approximately 50 region-wide
council-driven renewal and housing supply initiatives.
6. Panuku
works with partners and stakeholders over the course of a project. It also
champions best practice project delivery, to achieve best value outcomes within
defined cost, time and quality parameters.
7. Below
is a high-level update on development activities in the Kaipātiki Local
Board area:
Unlock Northcote
8. Unlock
priority locations are areas where Auckland Council is not necessarily the
major land holder and have been identified as requiring Panuku to be the facilitator
by using its relationships to break down barriers and influencing others
including council family organisations to create development opportunities.
9. Northcote was chosen as an Unlock location as the result of a
council-led assessment across the region’s urban centres. These were
chosen based on development potential including scale and impact, key land
holdings, commercial viability, partnership opportunities, the ability to
leverage off previous investment and proximity to public transport.
10. Northcote is a vibrant, multi-cultural town centre with a great
choice of food outlets and established community facilities. Local residents
have told Auckland Council that the town centre needs to be revitalised, and
that they want to see housing and commercial developments which strengthen the
community and reinforce the local character.
11. Unlock
Northcote was approved for development by the Auckland Development Committee
(now Planning Committee) in December 2015. In March 2016 Panuku was given the mandate
to progress with the planning for the development. A Framework Plan for the
Unlock Northcote area was published in November 2016, and forms the basis for
current planning and design work.
12. Panuku
is continuing to work on developing masterplans and concept designs for key
aspects of the Unlock Northcote programme, including the town centre, greenway,
and the other key move projects.
13. Engagement
is ongoing with a wide range of stakeholders and partner agencies: Kaipatiki
Local Board, mana whenua, a community reference group, Auckland Council family
departments, business owners, and schools.
14. Panuku continues to work closely with Housing New Zealand (HNZ) and
Homes Land Community (HLC) to ensure that the two developments are well
integrated. The Awataha Greenway project is a jointly-funded and developed
project by HLC, HNZ and Panuku.
15. Developed
designs for the first sections of the Awataha Greenway are underway. A phased
construction programme is also being developed.
16. Progress on the amenity upgrading of Lake Road has been put on hold,
pending funding availability, which is being sought through the 2018 Long-term
Plan (LTP) process.
17. Regular
placemaking activities are continuing in order, to help build and engage the
Northcote community and activate the town centre.
18. Ongoing
discussions and negotiations have been initiated with a number of potentially
interested external funders and development parties, which are at a very early
stage.
Portfolio
management
19. Panuku
manages ‘non-service’ properties owned by council and Auckland
Transport (AT). Non-service properties are those that are not currently needed
for service or infrastructure purposes. These properties were generally being
held for planned future projects that are no longer required, such as road
construction, park expansion or development of future town centres.
20. As
at 31 January 2018, the property portfolio comprises 1437 properties,
containing 1119 leases. The current portfolio includes vacant land, industrial
buildings, warehouses, retail shops, cafes, offices, medical centres, and a
large portfolio of residential rental homes.
21. The return on the property portfolio for the period ending 31
January 2018 was above budget, with a net surplus to council and AT
shareholders of $1.1 million ahead of budget.
22. The average monthly tenantable occupancy rate, for the six-month
period is more than 98 per cent, which is above the Statement of Intent
target of 95 per cent.
Properties managed in the Kaipātiki Local Board
Area
23. Panuku
currently manages a number of commercial and residential interests within the Kaipātiki
Local Board area.
24. A
list of properties managed in the Kaipātiki Local Board area is attached
to this report.
Business interests
25. Panuku
also optimises the commercial return from business interests it manages on
council’s behalf. This includes two forestry enterprises, two landfills
and four quarries.
26. There
are currently no managed business interests in the Kaipātiki Local Board area.
Portfolio strategy
Optimisation
27. The
Auckland Council Long-term Plan 2015-2025 reflects a desire of council to
materially reduce or slow down expenditure, and unlock value from assets no
longer required, or which are sub-optimal for service purposes. In
response to this, prior to the establishment of Panuku, ACPL developed a new
method of dealing with service property, called optimisation.
28. Asset
optimisation deals with ‘service property’. It is self-funding,
maximises efficiencies from service assets, and maintains levels of service
while releasing property for sale or development. A key element of optimisation
is that the sale proceeds are locally reinvested to advance approved projects
and activities on a cost-neutral basis. It does not include the AT portfolio.
Panuku continues to advance this programme of work, which includes the
development of a cross-council project to coordinate and execute asset sales
and optimisation.
Portfolio review and
rationalisation
Overview
29. Panuku
is required to undertake ongoing rationalisation of council’s non-service
assets. This includes identifying properties from within council’s
portfolio that may be suitable for potential sale and development if
appropriate. Panuku has a focus on achieving housing and urban
regeneration outcomes. Identifying potential sale properties contributes to the
Auckland Plan focus of accommodating the significant growth projected for the
region over the coming decades, by providing council with an efficient use of capital
and prioritisation of funds to achieve its activities and projects.
Performance
30. Panuku works closely with council and AT to identify
potential surplus properties to help achieve disposal targets.
31. Target for July 2017 to June
2018:

Process
32. Once
identified as a potential sale candidate, a property is taken through a
multi-stage ‘rationalisation’ process. The agreed process includes
engagement with council, council-controlled organisations (CCOs), the local
board and mana whenua. This is followed by Panuku Board approval, engagement
with local ward councillors and the Independent Māori Statutory Board, and
finally, a Governing Body decision.
Under review
33. Properties
currently under review in the Kaipātiki Local Board area are listed below.
This list includes any properties that may have recently been approved for
sale, or development and sale by the Governing Body.

R 25 Alfred Street, Northcote Point
|
Vacant parcel of land (also known as Rosie
Bolt Reserve) formed as informal open space. It is the remainder of land
acquired by the former Northcote Borough Council for the purpose of a
proposed pumping station and road extension in 1923.
The subject site is named after a former local
resident and wife of former Northcote Borough Councillor Michael Gavin Bolt.
It is the subject of a Panuku led
rationalisation process following a review. Council’s Parks and
Recreation Policy team advise the subject site is not required for open space
purposes due to its limited size and proximity to Stafford Park.
Council’s Parks Operations team advise there are no significant tree
specimens or species present. AT advise there is no strategic requirement for
the subject site to be retained for transport infrastructure purposes. Council’s
Built Heritage Implementation and Cultural Heritage Policy teams advise that
it is not likely to meet the criteria for assessment of historic heritage
significance and warrant it being formally scheduled.
Panuku consulted with the board chair and
deputy chair regarding the subject site in August 2017. The board resolved in
October 2017 that it is opposed to a disposal in principle, as it considers
Rosie Bolt Reserve to be of significant heritage value.
Panuku consulted with the board in February
2018, and a report on this topic appears on this agenda seeking local
board views and preferences.
|
Acquisitions and Disposals
34. Panuku
manages the acquisition and disposal of property on behalf of Auckland Council.
Panuku purchases property for development, roads, infrastructure projects and
other service. These properties may be sold with or without contractual
requirements for development.
Acquisitions
35. Panuku does not decide which properties to buy in a local board area.
Instead, it is asked to negotiate the terms and conditions of a purchase on
behalf of council.
36. Panuku
purchased eight properties for open space across Auckland in this financial
year (ending 30 June 2018) at a cost of $19.7 million, and also bought six
properties for storm water use at a value of $4.2 million.
37. No
properties were purchased in the Kaipātiki Local
Board area during the reporting period.
Disposals
38. The
disposal team sold eight properties for a total of $10.7
million this financial year. The team’s 2017/2018 target is $8.0 million
for the year. The target is agreed with the council and is reviewed on an
annual basis.
39. No properties
were sold in the Kaipātiki Local Board area.
Housing for
Older People
40. The
council owns 1412 units located in 62 villages across Auckland, which provides
rental housing to low income older people in Auckland.
41. The
Housing for Older People (HfOP) project involved the council partnering with a
third-party organisation, The Selwyn Foundation, to deliver social rental
housing services for older people across Auckland.
42. The
joint venture business, named Haumaru Housing, took over the tenancy,
facilities and asset management of the portfolio, under a long-term lease
arrangement from 1 July 2017.
43. Haumaru
Housing was granted community housing provider (CHP) status in April 2017.
Having CHP registration enables Haumaru to access the government’s Income
Related Rent Subsidy (IRRS) scheme.
44. Auckland
Council has delegated Panuku to lead a new multi-year residential development
programme.
45. The
first new development project is a 40-unit apartment building on the former
Wilsher Village site on Henderson Valley Road, Henderson. Once completed
in mid-2019, this development will increase the council’s portfolio to
1452 units.

Regional
Activities
Highlights
47. Over
the year, Panuku achieved key project milestones and performance results in our
priority development locations. Panuku categorises three types of priority
locations:
48. Transform
locations – Panuku ‘transforms’ locations by creating
change through urban regeneration. Panuku leads the transformation of select
parts of the Auckland region; working alongside others and using the
custodianship of land and planning expertise. The catalytic work Waterfront
Auckland led at Wynyard Quarter is a great example of the transformation of
urban locations.
49. Unlock
locations – Panuku also ‘unlocks’ development potential
for others. By acting as a facilitator; using relationships to break down
barriers and influence others, including the council family, to create
development opportunities.
50. Support
locations – Panuku plays a ‘support’ role to ensure
council is making the most of what it already has. Intensification is a key
driver in the Auckland Plan. Panuku will support housing demands by enabling
development of council-owned land.
Transform locations
51. The Wynyard Quarter is undergoing rapid change both commercially and
residentially, with thousands of Aucklanders using this space every week.
· The first three phases of structural steel have been installed at
the Park Hyatt Hotel. All up, approximately 2000 tonnes of primary structural
steel will be used to construct the luxury five-star hotel, which will span a
total area of 37,000sqm.
· In April 2017, Mayor Phil Goff officially opened the Mason Bros.
building, a former industrial warehouse that has been redeveloped into a
three-level office space, bringing together a community of entrepreneurs and
businesses. It is the centrepiece of Wynyard Quarter’s innovation
precinct.
· The innovation precinct in Wynyard Quarter has expanded with
the newly opened five-floor building at 12 Madden Street. The
purpose-built home for entrepreneurs offers the latest in flexible
co-working spaces. This milestone marks two years since the GridAKL
initiative was launched by Auckland Tourism, Events, and Economic Development
(ATEED), partnering with Panuku and Precinct Properties to develop the
commercial space to house ambitious companies and connecting technologists, designers,
digital content makers, product designers and start-ups.
· Developer Willis Bond is constructing 500-600 apartments of various
types and sizes that are set to house around 1100 people. There are two
developments currently under construction; Wynyard Central and 132 Halsey. The
first residents moved in during September 2017.
52. ‘Transform Manukau’ was the first location to have a
Framework Plan completed, outlining the five key moves for the project and the
vision for Manukau in 2040. Over the past six months,
the emphasis has been on confirming the delivery of an affordable housing
development on 5ha of land at 20 Barrowcliffe Place. This project will be
Panuku’s largest development of affordable housing and involves the first
partnership arrangement with mana whenua in a property development role.
Earthworks on the development of over 200 homes will commence soon. Work is
also about to commence on the street-scape upgrade of Putney Way, in
conjunction with the bus station process led by AT.
53. The
high-level plan to ‘Transform Onehunga’, on a similar scale to
Wynyard Quarter and Manukau, was approved in March 2017. The plan was completed
involving significant consultation with the community. Panuku is leading the
redevelopment of strategic council-owned land, and works in partnership with
government and others, to deliver positive outcomes for the local community.
The East-West link, which affects the wharf and southern parts of the area, is
currently being reassessed by the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA). The
final board of inquiry decision approving the East-West link was given in
January 2018. Panuku is however, expecting amended plans later this
year. Working with the local board and key stakeholders, Panuku has
advanced plans on the town centre and the Onehunga wharf precinct where
possible. The Framework Plan that will guide the transformation is due for
completion in April 2018.
Unlock locations
54. In Takapuna, Auckland Council owns nearly four hectares of land
focused around the Anzac Street carpark and the Gasometer site, and
consultation on redevelopment of these sites has started.
55. Hobsonville 20ha Airfields site - stage
one of construction of 102 standalone and terrace homes is underway. Avanda
Group have been announced as the developers that will deliver more than 500
homes in stage two, of which a minimum of 10 per cent will be affordable
housing.
56. The opportunity to revitalise Avondale
has been given the green light in November 2017 with the approval of the
over-arching plan for its regeneration by the Planning Committee. The vision
for Avondale will be enabled through a number of key moves. Panuku will work
closely with the local board and community to implement a retail strategy that
attracts new businesses, increasing diversity of products and services. The
train station, upgraded bus network and new cycleways offer great transport
options and we will continue to strengthen connections between these activity
hubs and the town. A focus for the regeneration of Avondale is working with
developers to build quality residential neighbourhoods that offer a mix of
housing types, including terraces and apartments. A number of significant
developments are already underway in the area.
57. Council’s Planning Committee approved the over-arching plans
to redevelop Old Papatoetoe in June 2017. Panuku is leading the redevelopment
of the mall, a 2.5ha block of land, which will see the area opened up with a
new plaza space, reconfigured shops, upgraded carpark and a revamped New World
supermarket. In addition to the upgrade of the mall, which is expected to be
completed early next year, approximately 110 new homes are planned to be
developed in the surrounding area.
58. With the overall plan for Henderson being approved in May 2017, the
vision is for it to grow into an urban eco-centre. This vision will guide
planning and development with an outcome towards ‘liveable growth’
by creating a safe, attractive and vibrant mixed-use environment with a
uniquely west Auckland identity.
59. A development agreement was signed with Todd Property for the
delivery of more than 350 homes in Flat Bush, Ormiston. In December 2016,
Panuku sold a site at 187 Flat Bush School Road for a 30-lot subdivision.
Support
locations
60. The Mariner Rise subdivision at 20 Link Crescent, Whangaparaoa, has
been completed by Panuku’s development partner, McConnell Property, along
with the delivery of a 2700sqm park and playground. Sixty new homes will be
built on this new subdivision.
