Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board

03 December 2018

Brand and identity programme

File No.: CP2018/20810

Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report

1. To present potential approaches to a tohu and brand identity for the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board, aligned to ‘year one’ brand and identity direction in the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board Financial Plan 2018-29.

Ngā tūtohunga / Recommendation/s

That the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board:

a) approve expenditure of $41,600 to develop a new tohu or a brand to support the vision and co-governance arrangement

b) ask officers to scope the development of a basic but dedicated website to help increase whanau and public access to information, programmes and events relating to the Whenua Rangatira and Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve

c) approve expenditure of $100,000 on new wayfinding signage for Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve noting that the location, scale and scope of signage first be reported back to the board for approval.

Horopaki / Context

2. The Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board Financial Plan 2018-29, August 2018, notes the following:

“Operational funding assumptions

9. Governance, planning and communication

Brand, identity and website – it is anticipated that in year one the board would develop a tohu or a brand to support the vision and the scale of activity as well as the increased presence of staff and experiences on Pourewa and the Whenua. Year two includes funding for the development of a basic but dedicated website to increase access to information, programmes and events. Ongoing funding allows for collection and use of images, videos, collateral, communications advice and support.

Capital funding assumptions

12. Whenua Rangatira Developments

Brand and identity - upgrade/roll out of improved signage/brand at all entrances. Complemented by operational budget for (website, communications etc). $100,000 including design and consent is assumed in 2018-20 and a second phase of funding of $120,000 is assumed over 2025-27.”

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice

Benefits of a tohu / brand

3. A brand is a powerful way to communicate core values and principles of an entity and to establish the presence of an entity in a particular space, be that geographic and/or within a sector. A well thought out brand identity, when applied consistently across all channels, can quickly build trust and confidence in audiences.

4. Conversely, an absence of a brand identity can result in audiences becoming confused and distrustful of communications, leading to disengagement with messaging.

5. In visual terms, a brand identity typically consists of a logo, design elements (a bespoke pattern such as kowhaiwhai) and a colour palette.

6. As identified in the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board Financial Plan 2018-29 (year one), a brand identity could be applied to signage and to the clothing of staff who have a presence at Pourewa and the Whenua. For consistency, a brand identity would also be applied to written communications, reports and communications and marketing material.

Approach options

7. The co-governance setting within which the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board operates presents two potential approaches to a brand identity.

Bespoke brand

8. In this option the brand identity would include a single logo. It would look and feel part of the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei ‘brand whanau’, though would also present the board as an entity in its own right.

9. Elements could include:

· A new, unique single logo depicting the name ‘Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board’

· A new, unique design element that is consistent with the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand design to create a strong and identifiable mana whenua link.

· A direct replication of existing Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand design elements

· A new colour palette which compliments the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand colour palette

· A direct replication of the existing Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand colour palette.

Dual Brand

10. In this option the brand identity would include both the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei and Auckland Council logos side by side. Design elements could be consistent with the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand, though the board would not be as immediately clear as an entity in its own right.

11. Elements could include:

· The existing Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei logo beside the existing Auckland Council logo

· Could create a ‘lock-up’ which is a combination of the name Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board with the two logos underneath. This approach delivers the co-governance message but is not as effective in presenting the Board as an entity in its own right.

· A new, unique design element that is consistent with the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand design to create a strong and identifiable mana whenua link.

· A direct replication of existing Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand design elements

· A new colour palette which compliments the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand colour palette

· A direct replication of the existing Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei brand colour palette.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications

12. There is $150,000 set aside over the next three years to support the brand and identity work which includes a website and communication material. $41,600 is available in the current financial year. It is recommended this be dedicated to resolving the long term tohu or brand for the reserves board.

13. There is $120,000 capital funding available in the next three years for wayfinding signage. $100,000 is available this financial year. The most urgent priority is Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve. It is recommended that a signage plan be mapped out for Pourewa and bought back to the reserves board for approval. Once the tohu is agreed this new signage can then be commissioned.

Ngā raru tūpono / Risks

14. Although this co-governance arrangement has been in place for nearly 27 years the change that has occurred on the whenua that is highly visible to the public has been minimal. The budget for the next ten years signals the intention to develop a range of activities and assets that will have much more visibility and interaction with the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei community and the wider Ōrākei and Auckland community. It will therefore be necessary to engage more frequently both through the changes on the whenua and through media, events and other forms of communication. A clear identity or position on brand is essential to providing clear identity of the ownership of change. It will also be important to have a clear and agreed range of channels to manage communication.

Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board

03 December 2018

Quarterly report and general update

File No.: CP2018/23279

Te take mō te pūrongo / Purpose of the report

1. To update the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board (reserves board) on the operational and capital work programmes for the Whenua Rangatira and Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve.

Ngā tūtohunga / Recommendation/s

That the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board:

a) support the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Trust Board and decline the landowner approval request for works within Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve adjacent to 37 Awarua Avenue

b) note that it is not the practice of the reserve board to grant any form of easement that would fetter Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei interests in Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve and Whenua Rangatira as this land has been returned to Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei by way of treaty settlement

c) approve additional expenditure of $19,000 for the kaitiaki service for the rest of the year to be funded from savings made in the maintenance budget from delays in implementing increase service levels

d) delegate authority to the CE Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Trust and Kaiwhakahaere Te Waka Tai-ranga-whenua to recruit a programme manager for the reserves board, within available budget, and that programme manager be charged with scoping all elements of the reserves board10-year work programme, contracting resource and driving outcomes.

e) Request a report back from management on resolution d) with particular regard to the budget implications.

Financial summary

2. An overview of the operational and capital expenditure for the first quarter (July to September) of the financial year is included in the table that follows.

3. Revenue received is on target while operational expenditure is behind. This is primarily due to the additional budget provision allocated to new works on Pourewa Creek Recreational Reserve which have not yet been implemented.

4. Project expenditure is behind plan due to the kaitiaki funding not being transferred at the time that this was reported. This will be rectified by the next quarter with other project works in the planning stage.

Work programme overview

5. Below is an overview of forecast projects with an indication of their progress against agreed milestones. Further commentary on many of these is provided later in the report.

*Project*	*Next milestone/est completion date*	*Status*
Atkin Ave stream enhancement	Commence work in October 2018
Concessions area review	Review complete - incorporated visual framework
Kaitiaki	Up and running for summer with new mobile base that provides visual identity and supplies
Nursery	Consents lodged. Construction intended to commence late summer

Capital project update

Atkin Avenue naturalization works

6. This project, to open the channelled stream and more appropriately engineer the stream edges to manage erosion effects, has been several years in the planning. The pre-start to initiate physical works is now underway including meeting the conditions of consent. A program of works will shortly be confirmed with all stakeholders advising the duration and scope of the works.

Nursery

7. Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Whai Maia Ltd have been resolving a number of questions arising through the consenting process. Consents are lodged and it is hoped that construction can commence this summer.

Pou Marking - Stage I (Kohimaramara Pou)

8. There has been a delay of three weeks due to time needed to fabricate the bespoke base pushing out installation time. The base has now been completed and an installation methodology is being prepared. We are on schedule for a December install.

9. As previously reported a new site has been identified for the pou, which is still in proximity to the Koi café and allows more breathing space for the sculpture. The new site will not require resource consent.

10. Ngāti Whātua Orākei has contributed to the cost of replacement and installation of the new artwork. There will be no additional funding requirement.

11. The artwork is planned to be installed before 20 December 2018.

Recreation Facilities at Ōkahu Bay

12. A pre-start meting occurred on Friday 23 November with work due to commence and conclude before Christmas. The reserves board and stakeholders were advised of works commending via email on the week of 19 November.

13. Direction from the reserve board is sought on whether there is a desire and an opportunity to hold a small opening noting this will be very close to Christmas.

Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve – access improvements

14. As reported in August the master plan for access to Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve and associate budget provision allows for initial development of the main vehicle access opposite Kupe St and pedestrian links to the Kepa/Ngapipi/Ōrākei Road intersection. The board approved a spend of up to $60,000 on a programme management and design. There has been a delay in appointing the programme management resource to progress this work however it remains a priority and an update will be provided at the February meeting.

15. The situation and delays with Pourewa Creek access works is symptomatic of a broader issue associated with resourcing for the significant project work required to be completed over the coming years. Recruitment of a programme manager was anticipated in the 10-year budget forecast and is essential to scope and contract the required works across the programme. It is recommended that this is approved and completed by end March 2019.

Operational update

Landowner approval

16. At the August 2018 reserves board meeting an application for land owner approval was received and it was resolved that:

“e) request the applicant, landowner 37 Awarua Cresent Orakei, provide:

i) advice on where the storm water, which is piped along Awarua Crescent, is disposed to

ii) information on any ecological restoration of the proposed development

iii) any information on the apparent erosion adjacent to the property at 37 Awarua Crescent visible on the aerial photo

f) note that the reserve board has not delegated this decision to officers and it may therefore take some time to further consider this application subject to receipt of the above information

g) note that it is not the practice of the reserve board to grant any form of easement that would fetter Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei interests in Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve and Whenua Rangatira as this land has been returned to Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei by way of treaty settlement.

h) request officers prepare a policy on landowner approvals relating to development of lands adjacent to Pourewa Creek Recreation Reserve and Whenua Rangatira with a priority given to applications for storm water disposal.”

17. Immediately following the meeting the engineer working on behalf of the land owner contacted Andrew Brown, Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Whai Maia Ltd and provided a response to all matters including matters raised in direct questioning on the night that were not captured in the above resolutions.

18. In regards to the potential for stormwater pumping instead of the proposed outfall, noting that the reserve board wished to receive information about where the stormwater would ultimately discharge if being pumped, a Stormwater Capacity Assessment was supplied. This showed the assessment for the existing stormwater network. It also showed that there is not sufficient capacity in the existing system for the proposed development. It was stated that stormwater pumping is the last resort option from an engineering perspective.

19. A Landscape Plan was supplied which set out the riparian planting proposed.

20. In response to the continued advocacy from Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei for improvements to the current approach to stormwater which allows the discharging of untreated stormwater and associated contaminant run-off which could enter our waterways the applicant proposed a raingarden in line with the water sensitive design principles, and also a detention tank to treat and mitigate the stomrwater in terms of quality and detention. They do not propose untreated surface water as all impervious areas (roofs and driveways) will drain through the raingarden and detention tank prior to the outfall.

21. A site visit occurred to inspect the area around the stream where Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board where querying whether there was erosion on the stream bank. During the site visit it was found that the area identified was not subject to erosion, but to what appears to be a slip. According to the neighbours the slip ocurred approximately 18 months ago during a storm.

22. In the time since the last meeting staff illness and associated pressure on the workload have prevented any work on a new policy as requested by the reserves board.

23. Since receiving these responses the matter has been considered by the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Trust, noting that this kind of request has no precedent for approval they do not want to set a precedent they have asked that this be declined.

24. Since receiving these responses the matter has been considered by the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Trust, noting that this kind of request has no precedent for approval and that sufficient work has not been completed on a policy or decision making guide for this type of application, including a consideration of cumulative effects, they do not now want to set a precedent they have asked that this be declined. The developer has been informed that this is the landowners decision but that the final decision needs ratification by the Reserves Board.

Kaitiaki Service 2018/19

25. The expanded kaitiaki programme for 2018/19 has now been established at Ōkahu Bay and Whenua Rangatira for the 2018/19 summer season.

26. Newly uniformed kaitiaki look smart and professional. They have made a good immediate impression on visitors and regular users .The dual branding has had an immediate positive effect regarding achieving compliance from our manuhiri and tourism operators.

27. The branded hub (gazebo and flags) creates a high-profile base from which to meet and greet our manuhiri, and has become a focal point for all arriving manuhiri and tour operators alike.

28. The kaitiaki have accepted an invitation from council and will be attending a “Dealing with Difficult Persons” training to upskill kaitiaki in conflict/dispute resolution.

29. Neil Maihi, manager of the Kaitiaki team notes: I am very humbled and excited that we have started the season, we are slowly establishing our presence, whakaaro and tikanga, concurrently endeavouring to educate and advise our manuhiri and operators along the way. I personally wish to thank our reserves board for your support, my dream of establishing a model and succession plan for our people regarding our kaitiakitanga mo tenei whenuarangatira is closer to fruition as a direct result of this boards understanding, foresight and support.”

30. The funding previously approved for this service can meet the hours requested by the reserves board for the summer service, utilising a roster of five part time staff, however to do this the Kaitiaki manager has had to drop the hourly rate paid to Kaitiaki. He has also advised the funding will not cover the skeleton service expected in the off season weekends. This appears to have been a simple miscalculation in the business case initially prepared and reported to the reserves board. Given the amount of value that is added from this service, proportional to cost, it is recommended a further $19,000 be approved, to enable staff to be appropriately remunerated and for the skeleton winter service to continue in April, May and June. It is recommended that these funds be allocated from the savings from the delay in starting to spend funds on increased service levels at Pourewa.

Liquor Ban

31. An application for a 24 hour liquor ban to be established at Okahu Bay was submitted, including a history of the issues and concerns whanau have regarding this activity and its negative impact on the community and whenua.

32. That governing body has requested further evidence regarding these impacts; however this was during the winter off season. The intention is to collect and gather this evidence this season to support our application.

33. This mahi will be conducted by our Kaitiaki and logged in our daily reports regarding, volume, make up and percentage, further to this any and all negative behaviour and impacts will be logged and documented as well.

Events

34. The attached report (Appendix A) provides an overview of events booked in the last quarter and those events booked in the future.

35. In addition to this schedule Ngati Whatua Orakei have recieved seedlings from Te Ti Raku from Highwic House. To grow on the Whenua Rangatira and are now the Kaitiaki of a very important whakapapa.

36. The Ōkāhu Rakau team was invited by Sustainable Coastlines to participate in the sustainability hui with the Prime Minister:

Maintenance

37. The work completed by Ventia around the Whenua has continued without incident. There have been ongoing graffiti removal requests completed in the armaments and bunkers which is an ongoing challenge.

38. Ōkahu Rakau have had a busy quarter with notable points being:

· Kitemoana creek overflow has been completed and is also on the planting plans for next year.

· Watene Cresent corner is a site of an underground water hole which creates a swamp area during wet weather preventing mowing. Three Dotterel nests were found in this area. To protect the birds Ōkahu Rakau mow around the area and post signs for the public.

· Rubbish dumpings continue to be a problem with dumpings on the lower whenua and Hapimana street this quarter.

· A sink hole appeared on Hapimana Street which was reported to Council
