15.     A summary of each application received through Waiheke Local Grant, Round Two is provided (see Attachment B).

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact statement

2017/2018 Waiheke Local Grants, Round Two    

LG1818-201

Waiheke Community Art Gallery

Legal status:

Incorporated Society

Activity focus:

Arts and culture

Conflicts of interest:

None identified

Project: Gallery improvements

Location:

Waiheke Art Gallery, 2 Korora Road, Oneroa

Summary:

There are 3 things we would like this grant to support.

1) Regular 360 degree filming of our exhibitions to enable greater visibility of the exhibitions through our website.  This has been an ongoing visitor request

2) Resurfacing of the gallery floor.   The Gallery floor is exhibiting significant wear and tear due to the high level of visitor numbers we experience (75,000 pa).   Professional advice has been to recover the floor with a new timber, however probably in the interim it will require sanding and varnishing with a new colour tint.

3) Website enhancements to ensure exhibitions and the Gallery shop are more detailed, again a visitor request that will enable us to further promote the work of Waiheke artists.

Dates:

05/06/2018 - 15/06/2018

Rain dates:

People delivering:

People reached:

75000

Promotion:

Not stated We intend to create a marketing campaign around the website enhancements and recognise the Local Board with this.  We will have a re-opening of the Gallery to recognise the refurbished floor to which the Local Board will be invited to participate.

Community benefits

Identified need:

 

With regard to the 360 filming of exhibitions, this is mentioned in visitor comments and requests, Waiheke artists' requests.

Poor condition of the chipboard floor which has suffered from leaks and high traffic since it was last sanded over 5 years ago.

The Gallery's sustainability is constantly challenged as it receives the lowest level of funding of Council Arts partnerships.  Frequently volunteers replace staff members and as a consequence there are no retained earnings available for refurbishment and development.

Identified community outcomes:

 

Greater visibility for Waiheke artists and Gallery exhibitions to a wider audience.   Enhanced website to enable sales for Waiheke artists and craftspeople.  Pride in the Gallery and its presentation

Overall continued and increased investment in the community.   Currently the Gallery returns to the community over $500,000 pa in artists and supplier payments

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

·      culture and arts - creating a sense of identity and cohesion that reflect the island's identity

·      social cohesion - stronger voluntary and community sector

The Gallery has over 100 artists living on Waiheke registered as members and its role is to support culture and the arts to strengthen identify and reinforce cultural diversity thereby connecting to heritage, social and spiritual identify.  The project creates new opportunities for Waiheke artists in the presentation and increased visibility of their work and reaches out to achieve engagement with the community and visitors to the Island.   Enhanced presentation creates an enhanced value for cultural and arts experiences.

Project: Supervision Pilot for Home Support Workers

Location:

Waiheke Health Trust, 5 Belgium Street, Ostend

Summary:

Waiheke Health Trust (WHT) is constantly recruiting to the role of Home Support worker, and retention of these staff is often challenging due to the nature of the work. To initiate a pilot, providing monthly one to one clinical supervision to WHT Home Support workers for a 12 months period. If effective the aim will be to continue to develop regular, ongoing supervision for all home support staff.

Community benefits

Identified need:

 

It is well documented that constant exposure to caring and supporting people’s health and wellbeing places a heavy emotional burden on the Home Support staff. This can impact negatively on their own health and wellbeing, and potentially compromise the safety and quality of the care the worker provides and the people they are supporting. It can also lead to burn out for the support worker who is isolated in the field, with no access to regular supervision, to support their work and ongoing professional development. The Home Support staff care for some of the most challenging and vulnerable people on Waiheke and often have minimal training and education to provide this care.

Identified community outcomes:

 

WHT has limited access to a workforce from which to recruit staff. A strength based model of staff supervision will increase capability, sustain staff in work, and improve staff retention.

Staff retention will be improved if support workers are assisted and encouraged to develop their skills from receiving supervision. Support workers have until recently had very little validation or vocational standing. Supervision will provide them with an arena where they feel valued and so have a greater sense of equity amongst other health professionals.

The flow on effect will enhance all WHT staff and the people they service in the community. It will ensure care and support work received in the community is of the highest quality, and continuity for the vulnerable people they care for. The support workers role is pivotal in maintaining people in their own homes for as long as possible. They make valuable social connections with the people they support, and connect them to community, where they are more able to participate and contribute. The benefit of social interaction and respite for clients and families is crucial to a health community. This will also reduce the need and cost for residential care.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

·      community elders - meeting the needs of the aging population

·      social cohesion - stronger voluntary and community sector

Maintaining elderly and disabled peoples independence in their homes as long as possible

Maintaining and strengthening a strong and diverse caring workforce within the community

The Committee has identified the need to upgrade the kitchen for some time. The existing space is very tired and does not function well for the service we offer. The kitchen would be well over 20 years old.

Identified community outcomes:

 

Improve the space and thereby offer a better functioning facility for the preparation of our meals for our children at the centre.

Many parents see a large benefit in the lunches at the centre as it improves the childrens behavior and learning when they all eat together for their lunchtime meals.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

·      young people - engaged and supported youth

·      social cohesion - stronger voluntary and community sector

The centre is for preshool children. We hope to create a nicer environment within the centre for children, staff and parents alike.

Project: PICNIC BAY ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION GROUP

Location:

Summary:

We are working to complete our project which has extremely finite restrictions:  barge bookings, specific tide requirements (1 each month) avoiding the holiday visitors, and completion before April/May rains arrive, so we have a very small window.  We were delayed from begining this project this month.  This has cost us an extra $20,000 to have hired machinery and men idle for 2 weeks, so our budget has been shattered.  We have to pay this $20,000 and do it all again - please see estimated date below.

Environmental benefits: Riparian planting along this Reserve margin would protect the wetland from the pastoral land uses of the neighbouring private properties, significantly enhance the health of the wetland and aid the survival of two endangered species, the spotless crake and banded rail who both need forested wetland margins for foraging and dispersal. Additionally, if restored, it would create an important ecological corridor allowing the dispersal of plant and animal species within the wetlands and to the large DOC and F&B forest blocks

Community benefits

Identified need:

 

The Council Esplanade strip that runs from the Stockyard Reserve and along the wetland edge of the properties at 515 and 521 Orapiu Rd presently lacks  riparian forest buffering. Fencing and riparian planting along this Reserve margin would protect the wetland from the pastoral land uses of the neighbouring private properties, significantly enhance the health of the wetland and aid the survival of two endangered species, the spotless crake and banded rail who both need forested wetland margins for foraging and dispersal. If restored, it would create an important ecological corridor allowing the dispersal of plant and animal species within the wetlands and to the large DOC and F&B forest blocks presently managed under the Te Matuku Bay Project umbrella.

Identified community outcomes:

 

Fencing and revegetating riparian areas with native plants creates a buffer to the delicate wetland and estuarine systems from potential damaging upland runoff that can lead to erosion and pollution.  Enhancing stream side shading also helps to reduce stream temperatures and increase dissolved oxygen, minimising algal blooms and improving in stream habitats for native fish and reptiles.

This in turn provides examples of thriving and healthy ecosystems for the community and its visitors to experience and ensures its longevity for future generations to enjoy.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

·      the environment - protecting, maintaining and enhancing our magical island, land, coastline, wetland and marine environments for Auckland's future generations

·      heritage - protection and conservation

Project: Essential improvements to Waiheke Museum grounds and buildings

Location:

165 Onetangi Road, Waiheke Island

Summary:

The project has two components:

(a)  Paths: 

- Lay a new concrete path from the carpark to link to existing paths and provide drier, safer access to the main Museum building including for the elderly and people with disabilities.  

- Replace the uneven, slippery paving stones leading from the carpark to the toilets with a wider concrete path.  

(b) Repainting the historic Goodwin cottage which is in the worst condition, with badly flaking paint exposing bare wood underneath which has the potential to lead to further damage to the building, including the items displayed inside.

Dates:

01/06/2018 - 30/11/2018

Rain dates:

 -

People delivering:

approximately 6

People reached:

All visitors to the museum (now about 2500 a year and increasing each year).

Promotion:

Not stated There will be promotion of the project through signs on the Museum grounds and information on relevant websites.  There are also likely to be articles in the local papers as the work progresses.  We would also plan to hold a community event once the Goodwin Cottage is repainted to mark the occasion.  (The repainting will provide an opportunity to spring clean the interior and refresh the display in the cottage.)

Community benefits

Identified need:

 

Paths:  Currently the only access from the carpark to the main Museum building is across the lawn which is slippery when wet and impassable to visitors in wheelchairs.  The public toilets are in a separate outbuilding.  The existing paving stones are uneven and slippery in the winter. 

Repainting: The condition of the exterior of the Goodwin Cottage has deteriorated to the extent that paint is flaking, exposing bare wood.  With winter approaching this deterioration will continue, potentially increasing the likelihood of wood rot which would impact of the suitability of the Cottage for displays.

Identified community outcomes:

 

The Museum and its grounds will become safer, more attractive, destinations for both the Waiheke community and for tourists.   

The proposed improvements to the paths will help better meet health and safety obligations to both visitors and volunteers.  The toilets are maintained by the Museum and funded through donations.  They are accessible to the public during Museum opening hours and people waiting for buses often use them.   

 

One of the main attractions of the Museum is the historic village comprising three cottages typical of old Waiheke baches and the old police cell from Oneroa.  The current poor condition of the Goodwin Cottage is noticed by visitors and impacts on the overall attractiveness of the historic village as a tourist destination.   Waiheke needs to have a range of destinations for tourists as not all of them wish to visit wineries. 

It is important for Waiheke to remember its past history, both Maori and Pakeha.  For the Museum to play its part it needs to provide facilities which allow artifacts from Waiheke's history to be displayed in conditions that preserve them for future generations.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

·      heritage - protection and conservation

·      culture and arts - creating a sense of identity and cohesion that reflect the island's identity

The Historical Society's main activity is running the Museum which includes three historic cottages.  These need to be maintained to a satisfactory standard to attract visitors and to provide a suitable environment to preserve the items both on display and in storage in the various buildings. In addition, it provides a venue where information about the history of the Island can be found, including the pre-colonial Maori presence.  This helps the local community and visitors learn more about the evolution of the Island's identity.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

The Museum displays Maori artifacts from the Island and has maps of old Pa sites which are of particular interest to Maori visitors and those from the local community.  In addition, many overseas visitors are fascinated by the pre-colonial history of the Island, often asking questions about items on display and seeking other information.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - The new paths will allow access for people with disabilities and is a major motivating factor behind the decision to seek funding for the paths as a priority.  The Society acknowledges that there are issues with access to some of the other buildings (eg some have steps).  These will be tackled progressively as funds allow.  The two paths proposed in this application are a start and once completed will represent an improvement over the present situation.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Promoting SmokeFree:

There is no smoking in any of the Museum buildings.  No smoking signs are found both outside and inside the buildings.

The club has continuously had approx 40 junior soft ball players since it was formed in 2014 and this reinforces the need for a junior cricket club in the community.

Identified community outcomes:

 

Providing a low cost recreational summer sporting opportunity for children.

No requirement to source individual uniforms.

Ability to reuse uniforms in the club to minimise wastage.

Alignment with local board priorities:

Project: Golf club driveway upgrade

Location:

133 Onetangi Road

Summary:

The club needs financial assistance to reseal the main entry driveway to the course and park. One third of the road into the Rangihoua Park and Waiheke Golf Club is in a dire state with large pot holes and little seal remaining (see photos). The club has concreted the other two thirds of the driveway with help from the Waiheke Local Board, club funds and club members (providing labour and discounted concrete). The drive is the only road access for anyone using the club and this part of Rangihoua Park and hundreds of people use it every week.

Dates:

Rain dates:

 -

People delivering:

People reached:

333 members; 3500 green fee players and the wider Waiheke community who use the park for walking

Promotion:

Not stated We would organise a PR and advertising campaign to tell people about the driveway being sealed. We would publicise the event in our weekly newsletter and in the Gulf News golf column. We would inform people on our website and to New Zealand golfers through the NZ Golf website and newsletter.

Community benefits

Identified need:

 

The driveway is so full of large pot holes it is becoming difficult to drive along.

Identified community outcomes:

 

Three-quarters of the driveway has been sealed but now the rest of the drive is breaking up and needs resurfacing. The club has spent $30,000 this year concreting one third of the drive but cannot fund the other part of the driveway. All vehicles going to the club and this part of the park must drive along this park and at present it is difficult. With nearly 300 members plus visitors the club has many vehicles coming and going including juniors for golf lessons and retired people. The road is becoming dangerous to drive on.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

·      recreation and sport - providing a range of community programmes

·      young people - engaged and supported youth

Waiheke Golf Club is the largest sports club on the island and the only golf club providing sporting activities for the retired, for tradespeople (often their only recreational pursuit) for young people and tourists; a decent driveway is an essential necessity for any sports club and for a park. As the only driveway into this part of the park  it should be easily accessible. Because of its condition people do not want to drive their cars on it .The Golf Club has one of the most active junior golf clubs in New Zealand with a waiting list for its programme.

Project: Rugby club final touch

Location:

Summary:

With the recent refurbishment of the clubrooms we are looking to add some final touches. One aspect is to increase the signage with an entry sign, an honours board and some portable signs to keep the area tidy. The second aspect is to beautify the downstairs area with a mural depicting the island and the sports park to showcase to our visiting teams and to give the area a strong sense of place.

Promotion:

Not stated If successful with a grant, we will promote this through our newsletter and social media platforms. The opportunity also exists to add Local Board information to the mural.

Community benefits

Identified need:

 

After the recent refurbishment of the clubrooms the committee has identified that these areas would finish off the upgrade of the clubrooms both upstairs and down.

Identified community outcomes:

 

For local and visiting teams we would firstly like to identify to them where they are when they arrive at the Onetangi Sports park. An honours board is important to us to be able to recognise those volunteers that contribute to the running of the club. Some additional signage would assist in keeping the spaces clean and tidy. 

The mural we propose for the downstairs area would showcase the island to visitors and also give our young players a sense of place. It would freshen up the area from its current concrete block feel.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

·      recreation and sport - providing a range of community programmes

·      culture and arts - creating a sense of identity and cohesion that reflect the island's identity

We are primarily a sports club and made up predominantly of junior (under 13) teams, so the club is our home base where we showcase our unique island. The mural we propose will assist in this.

Project: Empowering Communities- Community Development

Location:

57 Rosebank Road, Avondale, Auckland (main office)- Central and West Auckland field coverage

Summary:

The Empowering Communities Program encompasses services that are geared towards preventing and remedying loneliness and isolation, and educating older members of our community on healthy and safe living, thereby discouraging their decline into ill health by equipping them with the tools to enable a healthy lifestyle. More recently, the programme is evolving through pilot projects, geared towards mobilising the local community to take charge and responsibility of looking after lonely and isolated older people living in their area. Examples include the Community Mobilisation project currently underway, as well as the “adopt a village” project that is bringing school children and vulnerable older people together; both seed projects with potential to empower the local community to care for their local elders.

Dates:

15/06/2018 - 15/06/2019

Community benefits

Identified need:

 

We are the primary agency that supports older people across Central and West Auckland. Through service delivery in the form of social work, elder abuse and neglect assistance, and our empowering communities and community development programmes, we have established the demand and requirement for there to be an expanded level of preventative programmes and services aimed at assisting those who are at the lower end of the vulnerability scale from slipping further, via a variety of methods, including regular volunteer visitors, facilitating their assimilation into existing activites, clubs and groups, as well as equipping them with new skills and knowledge through our ageing well free workshops. Existing attendance (888 to workshops in FY2017), and continued demand has demonstrated the need.

Identified community outcomes:

 

-Older people are connected with their community either via one on one visiting, via facilitation to join existing groups or both.

-The broader community is engaging with lonely and isolated older people, and assisting them in a community led manner e.g. Adopt a village, Community mobilisation and similar projects.

- Older people have accessible information on ageing well and ageing in place through workshops in their local community.

- We capture those who do unfortunately end up needing social work or elder abuse support early in the piece to mitigate the negative effects on their health and well being.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

·      community elders - meeting the needs of the aging population

·      social cohesion - stronger voluntary and community sector

The project seeks to ensure that all older people living on the Island, have easy access to all necessary help and support. The aim is to work in collaboration with the existing Community Network to complement support services. It would include Age Concern having a presence on the Island to facilitate access to support and advice not currently available.

Project: Auckland King Tides Initiative Community Water Level (Tidal) Gauges

Location:

Wynyard Quarter Pedestrian Bridge; Takapuna Boat ramp; Matiatia Wharf; Half Moon Bay Ferry Terminal

Summary:

Construct and install water level (tidal) gauges at public coastal locations that can be monitored by local communities. The process of capturing and providing water level data to the Auckland King Tides Initiative provides an opportunity for communities to learn about the causes and impacts of sea level rise on their coastline. Water level gauges provide a focal point for communities, where information about sea level rise can be communicated via a process educators call "provocation". The water level on any given tide can be measured against tide levels marked on the gauge that include historic high tides, current day mean high tides and projected high tides in 2115 under 2015 sea level rise projections developed by NIWA.

Focus specific:

Environmental benefits: Additional staff gauges are required to validate radar-based data already being collected by the Council. This proposal provides additional staff gauges at a relatively low cost to validate existing data. Data collected via this proposal is of a lower level of confidence than radar-collected data, but will be at an agreed and acceptable error level (as defined by Auckland Council and NIWA) to still be valuable in validating Council collected data. 

Data collected by communities has a valuable purpose in validating Council collected data to assess inundation risk from sea level rise as outlined above.

Community benefits

Identified need:

 

Water level gauges provide a focal point for communities, where information about sea level rise can be communicated via a process educators call "provocation", where the gauge's presence make people curious to investigate what they are looking at. 

The water level (tide) gauges will also provide context to the photos that community participants are capturing of king tides. Participants often ask for longer term trends around how mean sea levels have changed over time, and a distinction between historic background (natural) changes in sea levels versus future human induced sea level rise projections.  Water level measurements will allow participants to look at the impacts of an extreme weather event, and to consider the variation in water level that caused it.

Identified community outcomes:

 

Auckland residents become aware of the potential impacts of sea level rise in the next 30-50 years on the wider region and their own local coastal environment. 

We create and maintain a water level (tidal) gauge network (supported by an existing website and social media platform) that continues a conversation around what sea level rise might mean for local communities and Auckland as a whole. 2014 saw the creation of a portal to capture king tide event images and associated information relating to sea level rise. 

Users of this portal become part of an active network of individuals, communities, businesses and authorities that take actions that allow communities to adapt to sea level rise (e.g. location and nature of future development, erosion protection works, community response to impacts). 

Specific measured outcomes for participants would include: 

1. Involvement with the programme that is “hands-on”; involving an action component (e.g. photo and/or water level measurement).

2. Greater importance and value of capturing the impacts of king tide events on coastal locations.

3. Talking to others about sea level rise.

4. Getting involved in a citizen science project.

5. Looking after their local part of the coast.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Waiheke

The environment - protecting, maintaining and enhancing our magical island, land, coastline, wetland and marine environments for Auckland's future generations

social cohesion - stronger voluntary and community sector

Protection of Waiheke's coastline in the future will need to take into account risks from coastal inundation from a range of sea level rise scenarios. Auckland Council collects water level data via radar-based tide gauges to allow the validation of extreme sea level estimates that are based on modeled data. 

These radar-based gauges need to be supplemented by staff gauges, to provide a visual comparison to validate the data captured. 

This project encourages a community-led approach that captures the required supplementary data via water level (tidal) gauges that also provides a means to engage the public around sea level rise.

Māori outcomes:

Māori focus - tikanga (practises), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

Use of mātauranga (knowledge) Maori would be valuable in understanding historic sea levels. We have historic background data on sea levels going back to the 1800's, but understanding practices and patterns of use and settlement on the coast by Maori in the past would provide valuable context to the western scientific data that we have. Communities in the coastal locations outlined in the proposal will have this knowledge.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Water level (tidal) gauges will be located in public spaces that have vantage points that are accessible to people with disabilities.
