pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To provide an overview to community members on regional matters
within the 2019/20 Annual Budget and Our Future Water discussion document along
with the opportunity for individuals to provide verbal feedback to elected
members
Whakarāpopototanga matua
Executive summary
2. This
year Auckland Council are consulting on the Annual Budget 2019/2020, a proposed
amendment to the 10-year Budget 2018-2028 regarding property transfers and Our
Future Water at the same time.
3. Once
every three years, council are required to adopt a long-term plan (10-year
budget), and in the intervening years an annual plan, otherwise known as an
annual budget. The annual budget includes a Local Board Agreement for each of
our 21 local boards. The consultation document seeks public feedback to help
council develop our annual budget for 2019/2020, which will cover the second
year of the current 10-year budget.
4. The
Waitākere Ranges Local
Board has identified the meeting of 28 February 2019 as an opportunity for

Horopaki
Context guidance
Proposed amendment to the 10-year Budget
2018-2028 regarding property transfers
5. Due
to an incoming tax law change, the council will incur a substantial tax
liability if we transfer land within the council group after 1 July 2018. While
the changing tax law isn’t a reason in itself to transfer assets into
direct council ownership, if there is a strategic case to do so, then practically
the transfer should occur before 1 July 2019 or the council will incur a
substantial cost.
6. The
proposal does not alter the purpose (as set out in its constitution) or the
existing delegations of Panuku as a company. Auckland Council and Panuku would
continue to constructively work together in progressing our longterm strategies
regarding the city centre waterfront.
Our Water Future
7. In
June 2018, the Environment and Community Committee decided to prepare a Water
Strategy for Auckland.
8. Auckland
Council have prepared a discussion document, Our Water Future, to generate
public awareness and feedback about the issues that we think should be
addressed in the strategy.
9. Auckland
Council propose a framework to organise how we make decisions about water. This
includes a vision: to protect and enhance te mauri o te wai – the life
supporting qualities of water. It also identifies four big issues we need to
tackle: cleaning up our waterways, growth in the right places, meeting future
water needs, and adapting to a changing water future.
10. We have focused on high-level values in this document – the
spaces where we can find agreement and unify our vision. The next steps in
developing a Water Strategy for Tāmaki Makaurau need to provide a line of
sight, from vision to actions, to make sure what we are doing is going to build
the future we aspire to. Defining outcomes, measures and processes for
transparent reporting on our progress will be an important part of this.
