Resolution
number KT/2018/152
MOVED by Chairperson J Gillon, seconded by Member A
Tyler:
That the Kaipātiki
Local Board:
a)
support the transfer of streetscape
services from Auckland Transport and Waste Solutions to Community
Facilities’ Full Facilities suppliers as part of Project Streetscapes
with the proviso that the contract outcomes reflect local character, not one
generic outcome across the region.
b)
note that the majority of the service
specifications for the proposed 5 levels of service (A, B, C, D and E) for
Project Streetscapes remain prescriptive and not outcome focused, due to
budget constraints, and requests that the Governing Body consider increasing
the budget for Project Streetscapes so it aligns with the outcomes based
service levels of Project 17.
c)
note with concern that some of the
assets being transferred from Auckland Transport to Community
Facilities’ Full Facilities suppliers may not be in good condition or
are not being serviced appropriately, and supports Community Facilities
working with Auckland Transport to upgrade these assets prior to their
transfer as part of Project Streetscapes.
d)
recommend, as a principle that applies
to the whole local board area, that all:
i.
berms, roundabouts, traffic islands and
other traffic controlling mechanisms are maintained to the highest standard
and on an outcome basis
ii.
plantings, flowerbeds and fauna
detailed in clause d i. are maintained on an outcome basis.
iii.
assets in streescapes services (e.g.
community noticeboards) are included in the asset register and included in
the renewals programme.
e)
recommend a consistent and integrated
process and level of service, that allows for maintenance to be undertaken on
adjacent parcels of land that are owned by different entities (e.g. land
owned by Auckland Council and the New Zealand Transport Agency that abut each
other).
f)
recommend that the following assets be
given priority for town centre cleaning and loose litter collection:
i.
berms and arterial road mowing and
maintenance
ii.
bins
iii.
lights
iv.
trees and flowerbeds, including leaf
fall
v.
bus shelters, cleaning and inspecting
all loose litter pick up of leaf fall, detritus, organic material and
branches
vi.
sweeping hard surfaces and cleaning
vii.
steam cleaning of seating, footpaths,
paved walkways, including shared spaces and civic spaces
viii.
street furniture cleaning and minor
maintenance
ix.
before and after events
g)
request clarification from Community
Facilities on how community organisations or business associations can take a
community-led approach to berm and vegetation management .
h)
delegate authority to Chairperson John
Gillon to identify the local board’s top 10 local issues with Auckland
Transport or Waste Solution streetscape services in the Kaipatiki Local
Board area, noting that:
i.
the identification of issues will be
made in consultation with the Deputy Chairperson.
ii.
the list of top 10 local issues
submitted by the Chairperson will be reported back to the full board.
i)
request that the Governing Body ensure
that appropriate funding is made available to prevent any drop in levels of
service, due to the increased streetscape service standards, should the
current budget being transferred from Auckland Transport to Community
Facilities be insufficient.
j)
note that the majority of the
neighbourhood shopping amenities within Kaipātiki are on private land.
k)
continue to strongly request that the
Akoranga Road median garden and the entrance gardens at both entrances to
Mariposa crescent be brought up to standard with new soil, and planted
appropriately.
