That the Rodney Local Board:

a)         recommend that the Governing Body:

i)             adopt an alternative Rodney Local Board Transport targeted rate of $150 per separately used or inhabited part of a rating unit within the Rodney Local Board area, to fund $46 million of transport improvements in the Rodney Local Board area over the next ten years as set out in the updated Attachment B to the agenda report tabled at the meeting and dated 22 May 2018, noting the additional debt impact, provided that the additional $85 million (total $121 million) for road sealing proposed in the Regional Land Transport Plan is adopted, and subject to the following amendments;

a.    The Rodney Local Board, in consultation with Auckland Transport, rebalancing the proposed expenditure on the park and ride facilities in Kumeu and Warkworth and the proposed footpath programme set out in the tabled updated Attachment B to the agenda report (dated 22 May 2018) by reducing expenditure in the Wellsford and Kumeu subdivisions and increasing expenditure in the Warkworth subdivision to more equitably spread the level of investment per separately used or inhabited part of a rating unit (SUIP) across the three subdivisions

b.    the following additions to the proposed footpath programme set out in the tabled updated Attachment B to the agenda report (dated 22 May 2018):

                                                 i.    Add the following footpaths:

2.    Albert Road to Hudson Road, Warkworth

3.    Hudson Road, Warkworth full length

4.    Matakana Road, Melwood Drive to Clayden Road (Matakana Link Road)

ii)         adopt the Rodney Local Board Transport targeted rate as proposed in the draft 10-Year Budget 2018-2028 if the additional $85 million (total $121 million) for road sealing proposed in the Regional Land Transport Plan is not adopted.

b)        request that, if the local transport targeted rate is struck, that Auckland Transport includes the projects to be funded by the targeted rate in the Regional Land Transport Plan.

 

c)         refer this report to the Finance and Performance Committee, along with the local board’s recommendation.
