https://acintranet.aklc.govt.nz/EN/workingatcouncil/techandtools/infocouncil/Pages/PurposeOfTheReport.aspx
1. A
heat wave has gripped Henderson-Massey this summer, and hope you’ve been
able to stay cool as you’re out and about enjoying the best attractions
of our communities. It’ll be a big year no doubt, but I do have to
mention that this Board are excited to serve you right up to the elections and
the swearing in of a new Board in November.
Te Wai o Pareira River Care Group Public Meeting
2. I
have to acknowledge Chris and Russell for organizing the Te Wai o
Pareira/Henderson Creek River Care Group public meeting recently. It was
an honour to speak at the event as well, and let everyone know about local
boards and how they can help.
3. It
is clear that we have stormwater overflow issues in places like Huruhuru and
Taipari Strand in our community, especially when there is a downpour. It
was fantastic to have Watercare and Healthy Waters on hand to discuss the
potential causes there. A public education campaign I feel is a great way
forward to minimize overflow issues. Down the pipes, we should only be
flushing our waste, and a reminder that even ‘flushable’ wipes are
not really flushable at all. Over time, with things being flushed that
shouldn’t be, this can create the dreaded ‘Fatberg’
obstructions that cause issues even in dry weather. Nasty stuff!
4. But
anyway, it is wonderful that a group is coming together to take care of our awa
on the Henderson Creek side. As a Board, I would encourage us to work
closely with this grassroots group, and again I must acknowledge everyone that
came along to this public meeting. Well done all.
Te Manawa Dawn Blessing
5. It
was a great honour to take part in the dawn blessing of our brand new
library/community centre in Westgate known as ‘Te Manawa’.
6. We
named this building recently, as avid followers of our meetings will
attest. Te Manawa compliments the adjacent Te Pumanawa square well.
Te Pumanawa square means the beating heart, and Te Manawa is the heart
itself. How beautiful, and also how appropriate as the new town of
Westgate grows.
7. We
also had the great privilege of going inside to bless the rooms, and trust me
when I say you will love this building. It will serve the Westgate
community well for generations. Acknowledgements to staff that put this
event on, to those that worked on this project over the years, and most
importantly to our kaumatua and kuia involved in the blessing.
Budget Discussions Ahead
8. Over
the next few months, the Board will be discussing our future priorities and
where we can make the most difference in our operational budgets. We
encourage people to take their issues to us, share their ideas and vision, and
help us make good decisions for their community. I need to acknowledge my
colleagues here, we will have some great discussions over the next few months
and I look forward to this process continuing.
A Special Birthday
9. It
was wonderful to attend the 90th birthday of Val Jilling at the
Glendene Community Hub recently. She is an active Glendene resident, a
regular in the Friendship Group there and still whizzes around in her car to
this day. It was great to meet Val, and acknowledge her ongoing
contribution to our community.
Young Enterprise Scheme KickStart Days
10. The
YES team were at it again this year, and it was great to volunteer to help our
young Westie entrepreneurs again. I may have mentioned before, but I
represented Waitakere at the YES Nationals back in 2005, and it’s great
that all these years later we are still growing young local business talent.
11. A
lot of this work comes about through volunteers, and I acknowledge them
here. Most importantly, best of luck to our young people, hope you can
grow your business and be the next job creators of tomorrow here in the West.

Analysis and advice
5. The LBTCF is a capital budget provided to all local boards by
Auckland Council and delivered by Auckland Transport. Local boards can use this
fund to deliver transport infrastructure projects that they believe are
important but are not part of Auckland Transport’s work programme.
Projects must also:
· be safe
· not impede network efficiency
· be in the road corridor (although projects running through parks can
be considered if there is a transport outcome).
6. The Henderson-Massey Local Board’s funding allocation under the
LBTCF was $4,623,969 for the current political term. In
addition, there is a sum of $1,253,083 which has been approved by Council and
is available from 1 July 2018.

allocation of up to 1.1 million to the Henderson North Zone Proposed
Residential Speed Management project. Auckland Transport has written a brief
and is awaiting a consulting price. The consultant will be preparing a
Scheme Plan for the project. This will be presented to the Local Board
upon completion. Auckland Transport has engaged a contractor to carry out
12 traffic count/speed count on 12 sites and one pedestrian count on Edwards
Avenue. These should be completed within three weeks.

Bus Stop Relocation
outside Bruce McLaren Intermediate School
9. Auckland
Transport are currently in the process of rolling out the New Network for the
entirety of Auckland. The Infrastructure and Facilities team is currently
prioritising funding for stops critical to the New Network. Auckland Transport
have a renewals programme that we add bus stops to that need to be upgraded to
the current Auckland Transport Code of Practice (ATCOP) standards. There are
approximately 6,500 bus stops in Auckland, with a large number that need to be
upgraded.
10. Auckland
Transport have reviewed the bus stop at 57 Bruce McLaren Road and found this
bus stop will need upgrading to bring it up to the current ATCOP standards.
Auckland Transport are unable to confirm when the stop will be upgraded,
however the team have added this stop to their programme for investigation.
Parking
Safety Concerns at Bruce McLaren Intermediate School
11. With regard to parking concerns outside Bruce McLaren Intermediate
School, AT have assessed the site and agree that broken yellow lines outside
57-59 Bruce McLaren Road would assist with visibility. Once the restrictions
have been approved and made a legal restriction, they will be installed.
Auckland Transport aim for the changes to be implemented by end of March 2019.
Cycling
improvements along Oratia Stream and Henderson Creek Shared Paths
12. Auckland Transport Network Management and Safety team have put the
submission on this through to the ‘Henderson’s Future’
consultation for consideration. Auckland Transport will be using the feedback
received during consultation to inform our decision-making on what can be
prioritised for investment in Henderson. Once the feedback has been
processed Auckland Transport will report this back to the Local Board as part
of the next process on the ‘Henderson’s Future’ project.
13. The final report will be available in March to April 2019.
Miriam Corban Heights Path Damage
14. A request has come through the Local Board for Auckland Transport to
make the path to the Sturges Train Station that runs
behind the houses on Miriam Corban Heights safe. Auckland Transport is
working with KiwiRail to replace the footpath and fence along the path.
Auckland Transport will provide an update once completed.
Sunnyside Road Safety Issues
15. Due to the complexity and number of
underground services involved in this situation, all the preliminary issues
need to be rectified first. Considering this, these works have been put into
the March programme to be completed by the end of March. There is a delay and
you can expect to receive an update by first week of April.
Footpath Staple Removals in Te Atatu
Peninsula
16. Auckland Transport is currently undertaking site visits to all
locations. The site visits will include taking photos and measuring the
width of the walkway entrance. This will help AT determine how to
proceed. We will update the Local Board once completed.
Motorway Verges and Berms
17. This issue has been forwarded onto NZTA who will action this
request.
Tirimoana Footpath Issue
18. Auckland Transport maintenance team have investigated this footpath
and no safety trip hazards were found. This investigation was completed in line
with the footpath condition rating which is attached to this report. The
document attached to this report explains the different rating of footpath and
when they would be warranted for renewal. In regard to widening the footpath
this is not feasible and would require retaining walls, drainage and removal of
trees which would be a cost Auckland Transport doesn’t have the
budget for.
Royal Road School Roading Issues
19. The Local Board have been approached by the school about difficulties
they are experiencing with traffic congestion and the proximity of the bus stop
to the entrance of their school.
20. Our Community Transport Team is visiting the school to discuss the
roading issues around the front of the school. Once that discussion is
completed we will decide on what action to take next.
Local Board Issues Being Investigated
21. Auckland Transport has high volumes of requests for service at this
time. This has made our standard timeframe to process requests longer than usual.
The Local board have requested the following issues be investigated and they
have been recorded, entered and are in the initial investigation stage:
· Bus stop outside Castle Heights Rest Home at 169 Sturges Road,
Western Heights
· Sunnyvale station, toilets request
· Te Pumanawa Square traffic Issues
· Toilet and water ountain request
· Waitemata Drive roading issues

Land disposal at 2-4 and 6 Henderson
Valley Road
File No.: CP2019/00905
Te take mō te
pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To
seek endorsement from the Henderson-Massey Local Board for the proposed
disposal of circa 458m2 of the Waitakere Plaza and the airspace
above 2067m2 of land proposed for the City Rail Link (CRL) platform which is
located in the carpark servicing the administration building. Both sites
are located at 6 Henderson Valley Road.
Whakarāpopototanga matua
Executive summary
2. A
significant portion of the land at 2-4 and 6 Henderson Valley Road has been
approved for sale by the Council’s Finance and Performance Committee as
part of the Council’s Corporate Accommodation Strategy and the Unlock
Henderson programme. However, the Waitakere plaza and the
above station airspace were not included in the original proposal to
dispose as it was intended that the plaza would be retained for continued use
as public space and above station development was not contemplated.
3. Panuku
is currently in negotiation with an interested party on the
disposal of the 2-4 and 6 Henderson Valley Road. The proposed agreement
seeks to achieve the joint aspirations and strategic outcomes of the Corporate
Accommodation Strategy and the Unlock Henderson programme. Through these
negotiations an opportunity to develop the Waitakere plaza was identified. The
discussion also highlighted the opportunity to sell the airspace above the
station platform for future development as part of the wider development
proposal for the site.
4. The
proposed disposal of the Waitakere plaza would enable a more efficient housing
and commercial development currently planned for the overall site. To
compensate for the loss of this public space, an alternate green amenity of
circa 480m2 will be provided on the site. This will be enabled by the
Opanuku Link project which is co-funded Henderson Massey Local Board.
5. The
proposed disposal of the airspace above the proposed CRL station platform will
enable further residential development that supports the Council’s
transit-oriented development strategy.
6. As
the activity is a disposal the Finance and Performance Committee will make any
final approval.
|
Ngā tūtohunga
Recommendation/s
That the Henderson-Massey
Local Board:
a) endorse
the disposal of the Waitakere Plaza (Section 2 SO 532084 - 458 m2) and part
of the Admin carpark airspace at 6 Henderson Valley Rd, Henderson (Section 5
SO 532084 – 2067m2).
|
Horopaki
Context
7. The
properties located at 2-4 and 6 Henderson Valley Road were acquired by the
Waitakere City Council for development of Civic Offices and residential development.
In May 2017, the Finance and Performance Committee approved the sale of 2-4
Henderson Valley Road as part of the Panuku led Unlock Henderson
programme. Subsequently, in May 2018 the Finance and Performance
committee resolved that a portion (approximately 7,200m2) of the Corporate
Accommodation property at 6 Henderson Valley Road, Henderson is surplus to
council requirements and can be disposed of. It has been agreed that
Council will retain ownership of the Civic building and the Japanese gardens.
It will also retain land within the site to accommodate the additional
platforms for CRL as well as any land required for internal roading and open
space purposes.
8. Panuku
has been given the mandate to revitalise the Henderson Town Centre area through
its Unlock Henderson programme. The project commits to increasing the quantity,
quality and variety of housing, and to improve transport and greenspaces
connections in Henderson. The programme has a strong focus on actively
celebrating and implementing the Henderson community’s vision of working
towards developing the centre into an “Urban Eco Centre, enhancing the
mauri of the town streams”.
9. Panuku
is negotiating with a potential partner to re-develop part of 2-4 and 6
Henderson Valley Road that are currently approved for disposal
(FIN/2018/73). The disposal involves a potential mixed-use
transit-oriented development, offering new living alternatives for Henderson residents.
Given the strategic location of 2-4 and 6 Henderson Valley Road and its
proximity to the Henderson transport options, the site is considered to be an
ideal site for transit-oriented development. The proposed disposal of the
Waitakere plaza and the airspace above the CRL platforms will contribute to
these outcomes.
Tātaritanga me ngā
tohutohu
Analysis and advice
Waitakere Plaza at 6 Henderson Valley Road
10. As part of
the wider development plan for 2-4 and 6 Henderson Valley Road, a portion of
the Waitakere Plaza is planned to be used as on-street car parking to support
the on-going use of the Civic building into the future.
11. Arising from
the discussions between Panuku and a potential development partner, the
opportunity to include 458m2 of the Waitakere Plaza at 6 Henderson Valley Road
into the adjoining development site was identified. This proposal would allow
for a better designed development scheme and a higher housing yield. Should the
proposed 458m2 of the Waitakere Plaza not be included with the land that is
currently approved for sale, Council will be left with a portion of land that
will have limited value, use and development potential.
12. To compensate
for the loss of the Waitakere Plaza, Panuku will provide approximately 480m2 of
new open space greenway to the northern portion of 2-4 Henderson Valley Road as
part of the Opanuku Link project which the Local Board is co-funding. This
would not only replace the loss of public space resulting from disposal of the
plaza, but also creates a more pleasant open space that provides better
connection from the Opanuku Reserve, Opanuku Stream and to the Japanese garden
and its proposed upgraded bell house.

13. This subject
site has been retained to accommodate the third and fourth platforms for the
future City Rail Link (CRL). The site is zoned Metropolitan Zone in the
PAUP, allowing for intensive development of up to 72.5m high. Panuku is
currently negotiating the sale of 2-4 and 6 Henderson Valley Road with a
potential partner who has expressed an interest in purchasing the airspace
above the new CRL platform with a view to developing apartments above the
future CRL station platforms three and four at a future date.
14. Britomart is
a good example of a successful transit orientated development.
Britomart’s mixed use development has significantly transformed the area
surrounding the station into a high-profile social hub by attracting new
private development as well as new businesses into the area. Enabling the
conditions through the divestment of part of the airspace on the subject land
would not only optimise usage potential of the land, but also pilot a more
advance transit-oriented development that could potentially be duplicated on a
larger scale in other town centre areas.
15. Panuku considers
that it is reasonable to consider a development proposal for the airspace above
the railway corridor. This would be on the basis that the extension,
functionality and the technical safety of the railway corridor are not
compromised. This will be further discussed with Auckland Transport, City Rail
Link Limited and Kiwirail.

Council group impacts and views
City Rail Link Ltd (CRLL)
16. CRLL is
responsible for acquisition of the land required for railway purposes. It
is also responsible for the construction of the future CRL railway corridor.
Any proposed airspace development above the subject land may interfere with the
railway construction corridor by CRLL. Therefore, any developer partner must work
closely with CRLL during planning and construction stage to ensure that
construction of both the railway and the airspace residential development
align. Panuku has advised CRLL of the proposed disposal of the airspace for
development. CRLL has indicated that it is willing to consider the
proposal and discuss further detailed technical matters.
KiwiRail
17. KiwiRail
would ultimately own the subject land along with the physical railway network
following completion of the new CRL platforms. Any future works such as
exterior maintenance, repair and refurbishments of potential buildings above
the corridor will require access over the railway corridor would require
KiwiRail permission.
Auckland Transport
18. Auckland
Transport will own and operate the future passenger trains that will operate
within the rail corridor. There is the risk that any incident caused by any
unauthorised activity above the railway platforms may result in interruption of
the train service operations.
19. Auckland
Transport has been briefed on the proposed sale of the airspace to enable
transit orientated development. AT has indicated its willingness to consider
the proposal.
Corporate Property
20. Council’s
Corporate Property team currently manages the Waitakere Plaza and the carpark
site that services the administration building. The Corporate Property team is
very supportive of the proposed disposal the Waitakere Plaza and the airspace
above future CRL platforms as it will achieve the joint aspirations and
strategic outcomes of both the Corporate Property site disposal strategy and
the Unlock Henderson programme.
Ngā whakaaweawe

Local impacts and local board views
21. At the local level, the
development of CRL infrastructure in Henderson at Section 5 is positive for the
community, bringing new investment, higher train frequencies to more
destinations such as Onehunga and Otahuhu, shorter travel times to the city
than currently as well as new pedestrian infrastructure to cross the rail corridor
to access the bus station and town centre. The comprehensive development of the
north carpark at 2-4 Henderson Valley Road incorporating the Waitakere Plaza
will enable and facilitate greater development outcomes and enhanced urban
design outcomes along supporting more people living closer to public transport.
The new Opanuku Link open space greenway, in lieu of the plaza, will further
enhance the connection and relationship of urban development with enhanced open
spaces and the Wai O Panuku stream corridor. This outcome will strongly
contribute to a wider Auckland-wide goal of enabling and delivering higher
amenity timed with higher density development.
22. Panuku
outlined the proposed disposal of Waitakere Plaza and the above station
airspace to the Henderson-Massey Local Board workshop at a workshop held on 26
February 2019. At the workshop the Henderson-Massey Local Board indicated a
supportive view of the proposal. This report provides the Local Board with the
opportunity to formalise it views.

Henderson Valley Road, Henderson on 4 December 2017. The following feedback was
received.

No feedback received for this site.
b) Ngāti Whatua o

No feedback received for this site.
c) Ngāti Whatua

Ngāti Whatua Ōrākei has expressed potential
commercial interest in this property. Should the property be approved for sale,
Panuku will contact Ngāti Whatua
Ōrākei regarding any potential development opportunities.
d) Te Kawerau ā Maki
The mana whenua feedback below is from the original
request for feedback on the previously proposed disposal of the larger
Henderson council precinct which comprised the entirety of 6 Henderson Valley
Road including all the carpark land and both buildings. Since receiving the
feedback in late 2017 council resolved to retain the Civic building and its
contents which was at the core of concerns from Te Kawerau a Maki. Retaining
this building includes the retention of all the Taonga/Artworks and pou whenua
associated with the Civic building and the relocation of agreed artworks within
the Admin building. The associated issue of land at Te Henga has also been
resolved in response to Te Kawerau a Maki feedback recorded below. The proposed
sale of the 458sqm Waitakere Plaza and part of the air-space above the future
Henderson CRL station is therefore set in the context of the significant
progress made on the above matters.
Panuku continue to work with Te Kawerau a Maki iwi
on an ongoing basis at both a strategic and operational level as it relates to
the wider Unlock Henderson programme of property, public realm and placemaking
workstreams.
Te Kawerau ā Maki has expressed significant cultural
and commercial interests in the site and provided feedback that it opposes the
proposed disposal as:
· It
previously relinquished its Treaty claim interest in a portion of the site to
allow the entire site to be developed by Waitakere City Council (WCC).
· Te
Kawerau ā Maki wished to help the
WCC realise its desire to develop the site into a civic centre and so withdrew
their claim on the land to enable Council to proceed.
· As
part of the development of this site, Te Kawerau ā
Maki blessed the building, carved sacred pou and incorporated cultural
designs into the structure and fabric of the building which is still there
today, and even worked alongside WCC inside the buildings.
· Waitakere
City Council advised Te Kawerau ā Maki
it would not sell the land, and if it did Te Kawerau a Maki pou would be
returned.
· In
return for Te Kawerau ā Maki relinquishing its interests over the
Henderson site, Waitakere City Council made assurances to the iwi that it would
transfer or vest the land at Te Henga for a marae and papakainga.
· Te
Kawerau ā Maki see the
development of this site as directly tied to the outcome of Te Henga marae and
requested that the Council completes the land swap required to enable the
development of the marae.
· Te
Kawerau ā Maki expressed a great deal of frustration with the lack of
progress on the land transfer which will enable Te Henga marae to be developed
and want Council to act in good faith by honouring the deal and the upholding
the spirit of the relationship.
· Te
Kawerau ā Maki seek the return of its pou and designs should the site be
sold and requested some of the proceeds of the sale be used to assist with the
development of the Marae.
Te Henga
The importance of effective communication and engagement
with Māori on the subject of land is understood. Mana whenua engagement
was undertaken by Panuku on behalf of the Corporate Property team. A number of
the Panuku executives have met with Te Kawerau ā
Maki representatives as part of the Unlock Henderson programme to
discuss the future of Henderson and the process for progressing the transfer of
the marae land in Te Henga as requested. On 12 June 2018, the Environment and
Community Committee resolved to transfer the site at Te Henga to Te Kawerau ā Maki.
Henderson
The Corporate Property team has confirmed that the Civic
building will be retained within the corporate property network. It will
continue to house the carved sacred pou and cultural designs.
Panuku will continue to work closely with Te Kawerau ā Maki on how its cultural values can
be acknowledged through the Unlock Henderson programme. Additionally, Panuku
will continue to work with Te Kawerau ā Maki
on any commercial development opportunities in Henderson where they arise.

Te Atatu South Plan - request for
additional budget
File No.: CP2019/02265
Te take mō te
pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To seek approval for a $15,000 increase in local board Locally Driven
Initiative (LDI) opex funding to enable the completion of the Te Atatū
South Plan.
Whakarāpopototanga matua
Executive summary
2. On
21 August 2018 the Henderson-Massey Local Board approved the
scope of the Te Atatū South centre planning project. This included an
allocation of $30,000 LDI opex budget in 2018/19 for the delivery of the Te
Atatū South centre plan. This budget was identified to primarily fund the
appointment of Isthmus as consultants to lead the plan’s preparation.
3. The plan project has proceeded through two community co-design
workshops, wider community engagement, and the drafting of a Te Atatū
South centre plan. The scope of the plan work has changed and expanded to
encompass the whole of the Te Atatū South area not just the centre and
surrounds. This has required more analysis, more meetings with stakeholders,
and more time in crafting a plan that can be supported by internal and external
stakeholders.
4. In order to complete the plan, taking account of these changes, an
additional $15,000 LDI opex is sought from the local board’s 2018/19
budget.
|
Ngā tūtohunga
Recommendation/s
That the Henderson-Massey
Local Board:
a) approve the allocation of an additional $15,000 LDI community response
opex for the completion of Te Atatū South Plan in 2018/2019.
|
Horopaki
Context
5. On 21 August 2018 the Henderson-Massey Local Board allocated $30,000
LDI opex for the delivery of the Te Atatū South local planning study.
6. Plans and Places Department staff have coordinated the preparation of the
local planning study of the Te Atatū South centre and immediate surrounds.
This included the development of a Te Atatū South centre plan.
7. Initial work on the Te Atatū South centre plan began in
mid-September 2018 and the consultants, Isthmus, were appointed in early
October 2018 to develop the content of the plan. The scope of the work was at
that time focused on the centre and immediate surrounds.
Tātaritanga me ngā
tohutohu
Analysis and advice
8. Following
the start of the project, the scope and scale of the project
and the plan changed for the following reasons:
· Initial discussions with representatives of the local community
group Heart of Te Atatū South (HoTAS) identified a need for the plan to
address issues and opportunities in a wider area of the suburb, not just the
local centre.
· The first co-design workshop on 1 November 2018 led to feedback from
the external stakeholders that the geographic extent of the work should be
expanded out to the two coastlines of the area, south to encompass Te
Atatū South Park and McLeod Park, and north to the motorway and the Bridge
Street/boat club reserve. The scope of the task now encompasses how the public
spaces through this widened area and the connections between them link to and
support the local centre.
· The public engagement phase required the production of engagement
material that was more substantial than initially anticipated, based on this
change in scope.
· There has subsequently been a need for more analysis, meetings and
refinement of the plan elements and options from both internal and external
stakeholders (including Auckland Transport), project team and consultants to
develop a final draft plan. This includes an additional co-design meeting to
present a final draft of the plan to the external stakeholders and Iwi.
9. The Te Atatū South centre plan will now be a more comprehensive
local plan for the whole Te Atatū South area. It has therefore been
renamed as the Te Atatū South Plan. The plan will have robust public and
specialist stakeholder support due to the co-design process, the broad support
from extensive public engagement and feedback, and the involvement of key
council and council-controlled organisation stakeholders in plan and project
development.
10. Isthmus has led the development of the plan and engagement content, in
conjunction with the project team from Plans and Places. The contracted budget
for their work has been consumed as at the end of February 2019.
11. In order to complete the final draft plan, additional consultant
resource is required. This is so that council staff are able to present it to
the external stakeholders at a co-design meeting in early April, enable review
by iwi, and seek input from the local board at a workshop in mid-April.
The local board will also have received an update on progress at its workshop
on 12 March 2019.
12. If the local board approves the requested additional funding, then
the timeline for plan completion will enable the final plan to be recommended
for adoption by the local board at its meeting on 21 May 2019.
Ngā whakaaweawe me
ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera
Council group impacts and views
13. The Te Atatū South Plan has been developed as an overall plan for
the area and has involved a technical working group of staff from relevant
council and council-controlled organisations.
14. The plan has been integrated with the ongoing work by the Parks,
Sport and Recreation Department (PS&R) to develop concept plans for the
Lloyd Morgan Lions Club Park and the Te Atatū South Park, and the
“Connections” study also being led by Parks, Sport and Recreation.
Detailed feedback on the draft plan has been received from PS&R that needs
further consideration and integration into a final draft plan.
15. Auckland Transport (AT) is progressing its local safety programme
for the north western area of Te Atatū South. AT staff have
coordinated this plan with that project, and have been involved in the plan
development, and also provided detailed feedback on the draft plan that needs
further consideration in the final draft plan.
Ngā whakaaweawe
ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe
Local impacts and local board views
16. The local board approved the project in September 2018 and has
indicated support of the plan process throughout the meetings, workshops and
co-design process held to communicate and advance the plan. The local board
will want a robust and well-supported plan in order to inform their work programme
in future years.

Māori impact statement
17. Three iwi groups, Te Kawerau a Maki, Ngāti
Whātua o Ōrākei and Ngāti Whātua o Kaipara
expressed their ongoing interests and kaitiakitanga obligations for the area.
An Iwi representative attended the co design workshops. Meetings have been held
with a representative of Te Kawerau a Maki to discuss how the plan might
accommodate Māori and iwi principles and interests.
Ngā ritenga

Financial implications
18. The
additional $15,000 LDI opex can be sourced out of community
response budget from the 2018/2019 local board work programme. The total local
board LDI opex allocation to this project would be $45,000.
Ngā raru tūpono me
ngā whakamaurutanga
Risks and mitigations
19. The project and plan is now in its final stages of preparation. It is
not feasible to complete the plan without the involvement of Isthmus. If
funding is not approved then there is a risk that the plan will not be
sufficiently completed in the 2018/2019 financial year.
Ngā koringa ā-muri
Next steps
20. If
additional funding is approved then the final draft plan will
be able to be presented to the external stakeholders in early April. It will
then be reviewed by the Local Board at a workshop in mid-April 2019 and then
reported to the Henderson-Massey Local Board business meeting on the 21 May
2019.

Proposed kauri dieback mitigation in
local parks in the Henderson-Massey Local Board area
File No.: CP2019/02425
Te take mō te
pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To
endorse high level kauri
protection actions for local parks and reserves within
the Henderson-Massey Local Board area, ahead of the development
of a detailed kauri dieback mitigation programme in mid-2019.
Whakarāpopototanga matua
Executive summary
2. To
prevent the spread of kauri dieback and protect healthy kauri, staff have
analysed all local parks and reserves in the Auckland region and developed
recommended high level mitigation measures for each park.
3. This
interim report provides the results of the prioritisation of local parks and
reserves in the Henderson-Massey
Local Board area. The report also seeks endorsement of the recommended high
level kauri protection actions prior to the development of a detailed programme
of works.
4. A
detailed kauri dieback mitigation programme will be presented to the board for
approval at a mid-2019 business meeting. The report will identify specific
works for each park and the associated implementation costs and timeframes.
5. There
are approximately 350 local parks throughout the Auckland region that contain kauri.
Protection of healthy kauri is the primary objective of council’s kauri
dieback management approach.
6. Following
the introduction of the natural environment targeted rate, additional funding
is available to support the management of kauri dieback in the Auckland region.
This funding is prioritised to support the protection of high value (Category A) kauri ecosystems and minimise the risk of
spreading kauri dieback.
7. In
the Henderson-Massey Local Board area there are nine local parks or reserves that
contain kauri ecosystems. All of these parks have been analysed and allocated
to one of four kauri dieback management categories, as summarised in this
report.
8. Shona
Esplanade Reserve has been classified as the only Category A park in the local
board area. This park is of high recreational value and contains a high value
kauri ecosystem. Investment will be required to ensure that healthy kauri are
protected and any diseased kauri are contained and do not become a source of
infection.
9. Recommended
mitigation measures are high level and focus on asset solutions, which could
include track upgrades, re-alignment or re-routing of tracks, installation of
boardwalks, and installation of hygiene stations. Non-asset solutions such as
awareness raising and education will also be undertaken.
10. A
list of all the local parks in the local board area that contain kauri, and
recommended high level kauri dieback mitigation measures is appended to this
report as Attachment A. Copies of the recreational assessments for selected
parks have been appended to this report as Attachment B.
11. Further investigations are required to determine the exact nature of
the necessary kauri protection works for each park in the local board area, as
well as the costs and achievable timelines. These investigations will be
completed in April 2019 and the results presented to the board as part of the
detailed kauri dieback mitigation programme at a
mid-2019 business meeting.
Horopaki
Context
Natural environment targeted rate funding to support the
management of kauri dieback in local parks
12. In June 2018 the governing body adopted Auckland
Council’s ten-year budget for the period 2018-2028. This included a
natural environment targeted rate which will provide $311 million of additional
investment towards environmental outcomes over the next decade (resolution GB/2018/91).
13. Funding has been identified within the plant
pathogen workstream of the natural environment targeted rate programme to
support the management of kauri dieback. Along with existing local board
renewals budgets, this funding will support the provision of physical works
such as upgrades of tracks in parks with high-value kauri across the local
parks and reserves network.
14. Funding
from the natural environment targeted rate will be integrated with existing
renewals budgets where available. This funding will be focused on tracks, or
sections of tracks where kauri are located within 30 metres of the track, and
where the park has been identified as high priority (Category A) in accordance
with the categorisation process detailed in the analysis and advice section of
this report.
Overview of the kauri dieback mitigation
programme
15. There
are approximately 350 local parks throughout the Auckland region that contain
kauri. The funding available from
the natural environment targeted rate will not be able to provide for the
protection of all kauri in the region.
16. To manage investment across the region, a
risk-based prioritisation approach has been applied. Local parks have been
analysed in terms of kauri ecosystem value, recreational value and kauri health
status, noting that the council’s primary objective is the protection of
healthy kauri.
17. This report focuses on the results of the prioritisation of local
parks and reserves and the high level kauri protection measures recommended for
each prioritisation category
Tātaritanga me ngā

Analysis and advice
Establishing kauri dieback management prioritisation
categories for local parks
18. There
are nine local parks and reserves within the Henderson-Massey Local Board area
that contain kauri.
19. Each park was assessed and prioritised on the
following basis:
· the value of the kauri ecosystem, which was
classified as high, medium or low. A kauri ecosystem value was assigned by council ecologists based on the work
undertaken by Singers et
al (2017): Indigenous
terrestrial and wetland ecosystems of Auckland
· the health status of the kauri, which was noted
as infected, possibly infected or symptom free. This information was sourced
from the council’s active surveillance programme, which includes soil
sampling
· the recreational value of the park, which was
identified as high, medium or low. Staff analysed key recreational activities such as recreational trails, active
transport, visitor destinations, volunteer activity and sports and recreation
use. Reviews of reserve management plans (if applicable) and any other relevant
strategic documents were undertaken.
20. Each local park has been assigned to one of four kauri dieback management prioritisation categories,
as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1: Kauri dieback management prioritisation categories.
21. Recreational
assessments have also identified mana whenua and
key stakeholders with interest in the parks. For high and medium recreational
value sites, the assessments also describe service outcomes. Examples of
service outcomes include connections, access to existing leased areas and
facilities, and any planned development.
Identifying high level kauri dieback
mitigation measures for local parks and reserves
22. In the context of kauri dieback mitigation,
kauri-safe means that a track has a dry, mud-free surface 100 metres along the
track before and after the location of kauri or kauri roots. This can be
achieved in a variety of ways including boardwalks, box steps, applying soil
confinement membranes and providing aggregate cover.
23. The nine local parks that contain kauri within
the local board area have been analysed and allocated to one of four kauri
dieback management categories, as summarised in Table 1 below.

24. Further
investigations are required to determine the exact nature of the works
recommended, their costs and feasible timelines for delivery. Investigations
will be undertaken by a team of asset management experts and biosecurity staff.
25. Category
A parks are those with high to medium kauri ecosystem value and high to medium
recreational value. Selected tracks in these parks will be upgraded and/or
provided with asset solutions that meet recreational outcomes and are
kauri-safe. There is only one Category A park in the Henderson-Massey Local
Board area, Shona Esplanade Reserve.
26. Region-wide investigations began in February
2019 and will be completed by April 2019. Findings will inform the development
of a detailed kauri dieback mitigation programme which will be submitted to a
local board business meeting in mid-2019 for consideration and approval.
27. Category B parks are those with high or medium
kauri ecosystem value and low recreational value. Tracks in these parks will be
recommended for indefinite closure. The only Category B park in the local board
area is Colwill Esplanade.
28. Category C parks contain low value kauri
ecosystems with high recreation values. Tracks in these parks will generally be
recommended to have hygiene stations installed at strategic locations. Some
track upgrades may also be required when kauri are in close proximity to the
track.
29. Category D parks contain low value kauri
ecosystems with low recreation values. No action will be recommended for these
parks.

Council group impacts and views
30. The
recommendations in this report have been developed through collaboration
between council’s Environmental Services department, Parks, Sports and
Recreation department and Community Facilities department.
31. Representatives from these key departments are
working as part of a dedicated and ongoing project team to ensure that all
aspects of the kauri dieback mitigation programme are undertaken in an
integrated manner.
Ngā whakaaweawe

Local impacts and local board views
32. In September 2018 a workshop was held with the
local board on the natural
environment targeted rate work programme and included discussion on kauri
dieback management. The board were supportive of protecting kauri and
preventing the spread of kauri dieback disease within their local board area.
33. Closing tracks in parks or reserves will have an
impact on recreational activities available to communities in the local board
area. Recreational assessments were undertaken to help determine the
recreational value of each local park. Along with kauri ecosystem value and
health status, park recreational values form the basis of the categorisation
process used to determine suitable kauri dieback mitigation measures.
Tauākī whakaaweawe
Māori
Māori impact statement
34. Kauri is a keystone species that supports a
distinct New Zealand forest ecosystem, sustaining indigenous flora and fauna.
Kauri is a taonga species. Auckland Council, in partnership with mana whenua,
have a responsibility for the protection of the spiritual, economic and
ecological values associated with this taonga and the ecosystems it supports.
35. Tāmaki Makaurau mana whenua kaitiaki
kaimahi representatives have stressed the importance of the kauri species and
expressed a desire to work more closely with the council and the Department of
Conservation. Staff will work with mana whenua on the approach to kauri dieback
on a site by site basis, where appropriate.
Ngā ritenga
ā-pūtea
Financial implications
36. In
May 2018, the Governing Body approved a natural environment targeted rate to
support environmental initiatives, including addressing kauri dieback. The rate
will raise $311 million over the duration of the Long-term Plan 2018-2028
(resolution GB/2018/91).
37. The costs of the mitigation measures proposed in this
report will be supported by the natural environment targeted rate. Where track
works are already programmed in the renewals budget, additional works required
to protect kauri, such as removing muddy sections of track where kauri are at
risk, will be funded by the natural environment targeted rate.
38. Detailed design work will be undertaken as part
of the kauri dieback mitigation programme development for the local board area.
This work will identify the level of funding required and clarify funding
sources for the recommended works.
Ngā raru tūpono me
ngā whakamaurutanga
Risks and mitigations
39. Closing tracks in parks and reserves, whether
temporary (until upgrade works are completed) or indefinitely (where upgrade
works are not recommended) will have an impact on the recreational activities
available in the local board area. This may result in additional recreational
pressure on other parks and reserves.
40. To mitigate this risk, information will be
provided to the public about alternative recreational activities. As part of
the kauri dieback education campaign, the public will be provided with
information about the reasons for the closures and the objectives of the kauri
dieback mitigation programme.
41. There is also a risk of non-compliance, where
mitigation measures are disregarded by the public, particularly with respect to
track closures (where tracks continue to be used despite closure notices) and
hygiene stations (where hygiene stations are not used, or not used correctly).
42. Risk mitigation includes the provision of
appropriate information and effective implementation of track closures,
including signage, physical barriers and other site-specific measures such as
barrier planting.
Ngā koringa ā-muri
Next steps
43. Following the local board’s decision on
the recommendations provided in this report, staff will develop a kauri dieback
mitigation programme for each park in the local board
area. The recommended mitigation
measures will include an indicative cost and delivery timeframe.
44. A report detailing the recommended kauri dieback
mitigation measures for local parks in the Henderson-Massey Local Board area
will be submitted to the board for decision at a mid-2019 business meeting.

Waitākere ki tua - An action plan
in response to aspirations of west Auckland Māori
File No.: CP2019/00358
Te take mō te
pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To endorse
Waitākere ki tua – An action plan in response to aspirations of west
Auckland Māori to support Henderson-Massey, Waitākere Ranges and Whau
local boards to deliver on improved outcomes for Māori.
1.
Whakarāpopototanga
matua
Executive summary
2. Waitākere
ki tua (Waitākere going forward) (attachment A) is an action plan is
intended to influence and drive future business planning, engagement and
relationships, decision-making, systems and processes design, capability and
capacity building, and general provision of services.
3. The action plan draws on
two key reports that were developed following robust engagement processes with
Māori; the Toitū Waitākere report 2017 (attachment B) and the
West Auckland Mataawaka Report from 2014. Both of these engagement processes
were undertaken by Māori leaders in west Auckland who applied a kaupapa
Māori methodology. The Toitū Waitākere report in particular, was
developed following three hui hosted on Hoani Waititi Marae as well as more
than 50 face-to-face interviews with local Māori.
4. Waitākere ki tua
aims to honour the process and kōrero by bringing the recommendations of
both reports together so local board decision-making and advocacy reflects
Māori community aspirations.
5. Whakawhanaungatanga
growing respectful and reciprocal relationships is the key principle of the
action plan. A key new proposal is the establishment of a three-year local
community-based Māori broker project. A broker would be established to
take a lead role in strengthening connections and capacity across west Auckland
Māori communities, as well as fostering the relationship between west
Auckland Māori communities and individuals and Auckland Council at elected
member governance and staff operational levels.
6. Currently regional
funding of $60,000 per annum for the next three year has been secured from for
the Māori broker role. Each of the three local boards are being requested
to allocate a further $15,000 each per annum for the next three years to act as
a local match funding to enable a three-year full time project to be funded.
Discussions have been initiated around the Māori broker project being
facilitated through a three-year funding agreement with Hoani Waititi Marae.

Analysis and advice
7. As
identified in Waitākere ki tua, under the principle of Whakawhanaungatanga
(grow respectful and reciprocal relationships), the following three focus areas
reflect the aspirations of west Auckland Māori and support the
recommendations and actions it contains:
· Rangatiratanga (enhancing leadership and
participation): west Auckland Māori aspire to lead and achieve in their
priority areas of placemaking, design, decision-making and Māori
development.
· Taonga tuku iho (ancestral Māori
culture and practices): west Auckland Māori seek facilities and services
that reflect Māori culture and identity through te reo Māori, tikanga
and mātauranga which are to be valued, validated and normalised.
· Rangatira mō āpōpō
(ensuring sustainable futures): highlights that west Auckland Māori want
to invest in rangatahi, mātua, pakeke and kaumātua to grow, develop
and sustain taonga tuku iho.
8. Henderson-Massey,
Whau and Waitākere Ranges local boards workshopped Waitākere ki tua
in November 2018, with robust discussions on the recommendations, with actions
and feedback incorporated into the document found in Attachment one.
2.
Maori Broker Project
9. A key action within the
action plan that will be most enabling for Council and empowering for the
community was the idea of a specific role that can take forward to on the
ground mahi / work. Through the hui and associated engagement, it was also
strongly and frequently stated the need for Māori to be working with
Māori. To this end regional funding has been secured and indications of
supportive funding allocations have been given by the three local boards to
establish a Māori Broker Project based primarily around a three-year
full-time role. The role is proposed to be based within Hoani Waititi Marae in
recognition of Hoani Waititi Marae’s relationship with council, its
position in the community and existing skill base, and in alignment with the
three local boards endorsed empowered communities approach.
10. The current Māori Broker
project brief is:
3.
To provide for dedicated engagement support and capacity
development across Māori communities and organisations of Waitākere
through a Māori broker project.
4.
Three-year funding will enable the appointment of a fixed term
full time role managed through Hoani Waititi Marae with the responsibility of
co-ordination of shared communications, event and strategic initiatives,
including development and delivery of an engagement, capability and capacity
building work-programme in partnership between Te Kaunihera o Tāmaki
Makaurau (Auckland Council), Henderson-Massey, Waitākere Ranges and Whau
Local Boards and Hoani Waititi Marae.
5.
The shared intent is to foster and bring forward shared
aspirations of Mataawaka communities and organisations across Waitākere
west Auckland in a collaborative and empowering way whilst also lifting the
relationship between Council, Hoani Waititi Marae and Māori. Local boards
will also be assisted in growing their capacity and understanding of kaupapapa
Māori methods and Te Ao Māori perspectives.

14. Local board members and Ward
Councillors were invited to the three Marae based hui held over 2017,
subsequent workshops were held with each board presenting the Toitū
Waitākere report to members.
15. Building upon the insights gained
and through the lens of local government noting what Auckland Council local
boards have decision making or influence over Waitākere ki tua – An
action plan in response to aspirations of west Auckland Māori was
developed.
16. A presentation and draft action
plan were workshopped with all three local boards in November 2018. There was
general endorsement over the overall action plan and an acknowledgement of the
process and work to date.
17. The concept of a Maori coordinator
was specifically flagged as a key opportunity and indicative support was
obtained from each local board individually around contributing to a joint role
noting that regional funding had been secured already.
Tauākī whakaaweawe
Māori
Māori impact statement
18. West Auckland has a strong
Māori community and its Māori population ranks second in size out of
the 21 local boards in Auckland.
19. Mana whenua were not directly
engaged in the process of developing the action plan with focus
on Māori who reside in the west local board areas. A separate project is
underway with local boards and mana whenua of west Auckland to progress
council’s legal and Te Tiriti o Waitangi commitments through Mana Whenua
Relationship Agreements.
20. The three west
local boards of Henderson-Massey, Waitākere Ranges and Whau recognise their legal obligations and commitments to Maori and to Te Tiriti o
Waitangi as a founding document of Aotearoa New Zealand.
21. Council influences
outcomes with Māori through policies, plans and funding, and the various
activities it delivers. The Waitākere ki tua action plan is intended to
increase opportunities and drive change in council culture and practice to
respond to Māori aspirations.
Ngā ritenga

Financial implications
22. The actions of Waitākere
ki tua are a mix of activities that involve both; an adjustment in Council
processes or methodologies, along with the development of new activities or the
direction of funding to better respond to identified needs and aspirations
across west Auckland.
23. Whilst there will likely be a more
explicit explanation along with supporting advice through annual work
programming process the plan can be progressed from within local board
discretionary budgets with some opportunity to leverage off associated regional
budgets and programmes.
24. A key new proposal is the
establishment of a three-year local community-based Māori broker project.
The broker would take a lead role in strengthening connections and capacity
across west Auckland Māori communities, as well as fostering the
relationship between west Auckland Māori communities and individuals and
Auckland Council at elected member governance and staff operational levels.
25. Regional funding of $60,000 per
annum for the next three years has been secured to assist the establishment of
the proposed Māori broker project and local boards are being asked to
consider the allocation of $15,000 each annually for the next three years.

1. Introduction
This guide has been developed from
kōrero shared by the west Auckland Māori community through the West
Auckland Mataawaka Report, 2014, and the Toitū Waitākere Report,
2017.Its intent is to provide the west Auckland local boards of Henderson-Massey,
Whau and Waitākere Ranges, guidance and support to inform decision-making
on matters that are important to west Auckland Māori.
The recommendations and actions in this
document have been developed from these reports and themed under focus areas
which reflect Māori aspirations. This guide is intended to increase
opportunities and drive change in council culture and practice to respond to
Māori aspirations. Council influences outcomes with Māori through
policies, plans and funding, and the various activities it delivers.
This guide aligns with key council strategic
documents to maximise alignment to council priorities. The documents are;
· The Auckland Plan
2050
· Whiria Te Muka
Tangata, 2014
· Henderson-Massey
Local Board Plan 2017
· Waitākere
Ranges Local Board Plan 2017
· Whau Local Board
Plan 2017
Throughout this document the term ‘west
Auckland Māori’ is used which includes mana whenua, mataawaka and
Māori organisations. It is important to note the focus is on Māori
who reside in the west local board areas and that a project is underway with
local boards and mana whenua of west Auckland to progress council’s legal
and Te Tiriti o Waitangi commitments through Mana Whenua Relationship
Agreements.
The guide is an
operational level document intended to enable local boards to better understand
and identify opportunities to deliver on improved outcomes for Māori. The
guide is intended to influence and drive future business planning, in the areas
of engagement and relationships, decision-making, systems and processes,
design, capability[1] and capacity
building and provision of services.
This document is council’s response to
the kōrero shared. A parallel piece of work is encouraged for west
Auckland Māori to develop its own local voice, a voice that promotes
initiatives and grows capacity along a path of its choosing that reflects the
aspirations of this guide.
2. Te haerenga - the
journey
West Auckland has a strong Māori
community. This document draws on two key engagement processes with Māori.
In 2014, the West Auckland Mataawaka Report
and its recommendations was commissioned by the Independent Māori
Statutory Board. This produced 16 recommendations to Auckland Council which are
reflected in the recommendations and actions in this guide.
In 2017, the Henderson-Massey Local Board commissioned
a kaupapa Māori researcher Hāua Partnerships to:
1. Understand
Māori aspirations
2. Support
strong engagement
3. Build a
database of Māori organisations as a platform to communicate opportunities
4. Provide
a platform for Māori community to link with Māori centric services
The Toitū Waitākere report was
completed after more than 50 face to face interviews and three hui were held at
Hoani Waititi Marae. The Toitū Waitākere report is to be shared to
support the voices to continue to be heard. An initial database of Māori
services and networks was created from information shared and is housed online
for all and maintained by Te Whānau o Waipareira Trust.
Both of the reports above were undertaken by
Māori leaders in west Auckland who applied a kaupapa Māori
methodology and hosted wānanga on marae. This guide aims to honour the
process and kōrero by bringing the recommendations of both reports
together, so local board decision-making and advocacy reflects Māori
community aspirations.
In September 2017, all three west Auckland
local boards endorsed the idea of having mana whenua relationship agreements.
Council have been working with Te Kawerau Iwi Tribal Authority representatives
to progress these agreements.
3. Alignment to strategic
documents
Auckland Council recognises its legal
obligations and commitments to Māori and to Te Tiriti o Waitangi as a
founding document of New Zealand. As such this west approach to Māori
responsiveness is in-line with the Auckland Plan 2050 and Whiria Te Muka
Tangata 2014.
The Auckland Plan 2050
The Auckland Plan 2050 sets the direction for
how Auckland will grow and develop over the next 30 years. This
plan has six outcomes:
1. Belonging
and participation
2. Māori
identity and wellbeing
3. Homes
and houses
4. Transport
and access
5. Identity
and cultural heritage
6. Opportunity
and prosperity
This guide strives to realise these outcomes
from a Māori perspective with specific attention to Māori identity
and wellbeing and focuses on:
1. Meeting the needs and supporting the aspirations
of tamariki and their whānau
2. Investing in marae to be self-sustaining and
prosperous
3. Strengthening rangatahi leadership, education and
employment outcomes
4. Growing Māori inter-generational wealth
5. Advancing mana whenua [and as appropriate Māori
community] rangatiratanga in leadership and decision-making
6. Celebrating Māori culture and support te reo
Māori to flourish.
Whiria Te Muka Tangata 2014
This Auckland Council Māori
Responsiveness Framework was developed to better enable council to identify and
progress activities that deliver on the Auckland Plan’s outcomes for
Māori. It is a core strategic document that outlines our commitment
to raise responsiveness to Māori. Three goals identify what the council
seeks to achieve through key focus areas:
An empowered
organisation
· Focus on staff,
senior leaders and elected members building cultural competence, capability and
confidence.
· Ensuring policies,
strategies and plans effectively consider and support council’s
obligations and strategic commitments to Māori.
· Improve processes
and systems to enable council to achieve outcomes for Māori more
effectively and efficiently.
Effective
Māori participation
· Focus on building,
strengthening and maintaining relationships with Māori at governance and
operational levels.
· Ensuring effective
Māori participation at key points in the decision-making process.
· Provide shared
decision-making opportunities from co-governance and co-management through to
opportunities for Māori to determine their involvement on matters of
interest to them.
Strong Māori
communities
· Focus on effective
communication and engagement with Māori.
· Council lead,
champion or partner to facilitate opportunities to contribute to Māori
well-being and build on Māori capability and capacity.
· Māori see
themselves as critical to the ongoing success of Tāmaki Makaurau.
· The focus areas
identified later in this guide align to the goals of Whiria Te Muka Tangata.
Local
Board Plans 2017
Delivering on Auckland Council’s
commitment to Māori at a local level is a priority for Henderson-Massey,
Waitākere Ranges and Whau local boards.
All three west local
board plans 2017 hold a commitment to building strong and meaningful
relationships with Māori to ensure that Māori aspirations are
understood and a commitment to developing partnerships of mutual respect and
openness. This includes a commitment to partner with Māori on shared goals
as the local boards develop their work programmes and plans.
4. Ngā hiahia o
ngā hapori o Waitākere - west Auckland Māori community
aspirations
Bringing together the voices
heard and information collated, the following principle and three focus areas
reflect the aspirations of west Auckland Māori shared in the Toitū
Waitākere report 2017 and the West Auckland Mataawaka report 2014. The have been reflected upon by the three west Auckland
local boards of Henderson-Massey, Waitakere Ranges and Whau areas. A pathway of
Council collaboration and empowerment has been applied and expressed in an
endorsed council action plan.
Whilst this document is a call to action and set of
recommendations for local boards, the phrase of by Māori for Māori
was strongly expressed and heard. It is anticipated that individuals and
collectives amongst Māori of west Auckland will find these insights and
resources useful as they look to animate and encourage a network that advances
their own chosen passions and challenges.
Principle: Whakawhanaungatanga - Grow respectful and
reciprocal relationships
Connection and engagement with west Auckland Māori
must be grounded in the practice of whakawhanaungatanga which is to grow
respectful relationships. West Auckland Māori request that the process of
engagement be formal and informal, face to face hui, that is reciprocal and
focuses on Māori aspirations and potential. Imperative to respectful
relationships is early active involvement in local board processes and ensure
adequate time for community to undertake a kaupapa Māori process to
respond to council requests.
Recommendations
· Develop relationships with Māori and strengthen
networks. Agree on shared goals and commit to involving community
representatives in decision-making.
· Resource and support Māori throughout engagement.
Provide the space, time and relevant information (in appropriate forms) to hold
hui throughout the decision-making process. This involves early input into the
local board planning process.
· Build cultural capability, competence and confidence of
staff and elected members in order to effectively engage with Māori and
respond to Māori aspirations.
Focus: Rangatiratanga - Enhancing
leadership and participation
West Auckland Māori
aspire to lead and achieve in their priority areas of placemaking, design,
decision-making and Māori development. This
includes puritia te mauri or sustaining potential through capacity and
capability activities connected to rangatiratanga.
Recommendations
· Support active and diverse Māori participation in
decision-making through kaupapa Māori engagement and partnerships. Involve
kaumātua and rangatahi and ensure access to appropriate information and
resourcing for engagement.
· Provide opportunities to grow community and cultural
capacity with a focus on kaupapa Māori, employment and business
investment.
· Ensure Māori leadership contributes to the future of
west Auckland and provide opportunities for Māori to lead and monitor in
priority areas.
Focus: Taonga tuku iho - Ancestral
Māori culture and practices
Linking to the concept of rangatiratanga, west Auckland Māori seek facilities and services that
reflect Māori culture and identity through te reo Māori, tikanga and
mātauranga which are to be valued, validated and normalised.
Recommendations
· Co-design services and facilities with Māori and
provide opportunities and activities that reflect te reo Māori, tikanga
and mātauranga. Consider spaces that support Māori identity and
wellbeing such as resource hubs, kaumātua social space, young
parents’ accommodation and birthing and rehabilitation spaces.
· Prioritise the use of marae (as facilities for community
use), education, Kapa Haka and sports.
· Focus on increasing participation through kaupapa
Māori practices
Focus: Rangatira mō
āpōpō - Ensuring sustainable futures
West Auckland Māori are concerned with
sustainability and succession planning. The concept of rangatira mō
āpōpō highlights that west Auckland
Māori want to invest in rangatahi, mātua, pakeke and kaumātua to
grow, develop and sustain taonga tuku iho.
Recommendations
· Support Māori medium and immersion education
(including kōhanga reo, puna reo and early education) and rangatahi in
alternative education. Support kaupapa Māori communities of practice as a
forum to engage whānau to develop skills that support tamariki in
learning.
· Prioritise rangatahi development in entrepreneurship and
rangatahi leadership.
· Ensure the voice of rangatahi, including rangatahi with
accessibility restrictions is represented. Consider rangatahi focussed
opportunities within the community.

Attachment two - Determining relevance to Māori by issue
·
To
assist in knowing who to engage with on any issue, the IMSB was required, under
the Local Government Act 2009, to produce a schedule of issues of significance
to Māori in Auckland. They undertook this last in 2011 and the diagram
below provides an overview of issues identified as significant to Māori.

Allocation of funding to Citizens Advice
Bureaux
File No.: CP2019/03528
Te take mō te
pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To
seek local board feedback on the proposed new model for allocating funding to
Citizens Advice Bureaux (CAB), and on increasing the baseline
grant to Auckland Citizens Advice Bureaux Incorporated (ACABx) by $200,000 in 2019-2021.
Whakarāpopototanga matua
Executive summary
2. There
are 32 CAB sites in the Auckland region, which are operated by
11 separate CAB organisations. Bureaux staff and volunteers offer free
information, advice, referral and client advisory service to local communities.
3. Local
boards hold relationships with their local bureaux, which report on service
usage and other matters of interest to the community.
4. In
2018/2019 council granted $2.067 million to ACABx, which was conditional on
staff and ACABx jointly developing a new funding model to be agreed by 1 April
2019.
5. The
new model developed with ACABx is population-based with a deprivation factor to
reflect communities with high needs and access constraints.
6. Feedback
is sought from the local board on the new funding model and the retention of
the additional $200,000 to baseline funding of $1.867 million provided
to ACABx in 2018/2019.
7. Local
board feedback will be included in the report to the Environment and Community
Committee in May 2019 to approve a new funding model for CAB.
|
Ngā tūtohunga
Recommendation/s
That the Henderson-Massey
Local Board:
a) endorse
and provide any further feedback on the new model for allocating funding to
Citizens Advice Bureaux (based on 90 per cent population and 10 per cent deprivation),
and increasing the baseline grant to Auckland
Citizens Advice Bureaux Incorporated by $200,000 in
2019-2021 (refer to Attachment A to the agenda report).

Horopaki
Context
8. Auckland
Citizens Advice Bureau Incorporated (ACABx) was established in 2012 to provide a support structure for funding from council and other
bodies, as well as the development of a strategic direction for the service in
the Auckland region.
9. Currently
there are 32 Auckland CAB sites in 18 local board areas (refer Attachment B).
There are no sites in Franklin, Great Barrier and Upper Harbour.
10. Auckland
bureaux are members of ACABx and Citizens Advice Bureau New Zealand (CABNZ).
The role of CABNZ is to support membership standards and influence development
of social policies and services at a national level.
11. In 2018, a joint working group of council staff and ACABx was
established to develop a new funding model for Auckland bureaux.
Auckland Council funding of CAB
12. In
2018/2019, council granted $1.867 million to ACABx, which distributes funding to bureaux to provide
services across Auckland.
13. Through
council’s 10-year Budget 2018-2028, an additional one-off grant of
$200,000 was approved to maintain and develop the service in the 2018-2019
financial year (resolution number GB/2018/91).
The ACABx board have distributed $90,300 of this grant to bureaux facing
financial pressure (Helensville, CAB Auckland City, Māngere).
The remaining funds will be used to test new ways of delivering the service and
develop a regional network provision plan.
14. Council provides accommodation for bureaux at minimal cost under
community lease arrangements, which is equivalent to a $641,000 subsidy per
annum. In addition to the funding through ACABx, some local boards also provide
grants to bureaux for specific purposes.
15. The
Environment and Community Committee set four conditions for the 2018/2019
operational grant, as shown in Table 1 below: (resolution number ENV/2018/48)

Analysis and advice
Current funding model
16. The current model allocates the funding received by ACABx to
sub-regional clusters of bureaux based on 2013 census population data.
17. The current funding model was implemented by ACABx with support from
council as an interim approach to transition from legacy council funding
to regional funding.
Council staff model
18. In April 2016, the Regional Strategy and Policy Committee resolved
to:
‘seek information from staff
regarding a review of the service after consultation with the 21 local boards
on the issues raised by the Māngere-Ōtāhuhu Local Board
regarding Auckland Citizens Advice Bureaux Incorporated funding, to achieve
greater equity and fairness, taking into consideration social issues in local
communities across Auckland.’ (resolution number REG/2016/22)
19. A review of CAB services was undertaken, and council staff developed
a revised funding allocation model using 70 per cent population, 25 per
cent client usage, and 5 per cent deprivation. This model
responded to the review findings and focused on funding to achieve greater
equity and fairness.
20. This model was not supported by ACABx who strongly objected
to the introduction of client usage as a funding factor.
New model from joint working group
21. The joint working group have developed a new funding model for bureaux using:
· 90
per cent population, using annual Statistics New Zealand population estimates
· 10
per cent deprivation to increase the capacity of bureaux to meet the complex
needs of communities with higher levels of deprivation. This will support the
development of new service approaches to increase the access to CAB services
within these communities.
22. ACABx advise
that this model will be difficult to implement at the current funding level as funding will be reduced to bureaux in the north, central and
Ōtara. Some bureaux are experiencing financial pressure and any
decline in funding would lead to a significant reduction in services.
23. If
the annual grant of $1.867 million is increased by $200,000 per annum, ACABx
have indicated that the new funding model could be implemented without service
reductions if bureaux continue to receive funding at the 2018-2019 level at a
minimum. The additional funding request for the $200,000, is now part of the
budget refresh process and includes Executive Leadership Team and Governing
Body decisions regarding approval for this funding. To further moderate the
redistribution impacts of the new funding model at a bureau level,
population-based increases in funding would be capped at 10 per cent for
2019-2021.
24. The
application of the new funding model is shown in Table 2 below:

25. The new
funding model developed by the joint working group is the preferred model for
implementation in 2019-2021. During this period, the regional
network provision plan will be developed, and council’s level of
investment can be confirmed and provided for as part of the 10-year Budget
2021-2031.
26. The new model supports The Auckland Plan 2050 outcome,
‘Belonging and
Participation’:
· Focus area two – Accessible services and social and cultural infrastructure
that are responsive in meeting people's evolving needs
· Focus area six – Focusing the
council’s investment to address disparities and serve communities
of greatest need.
27. The
criteria applied to assess the models were developed by the joint working
group. Consideration is given to equity, responsiveness to population growth
and community need. Under the Auckland Plan 2050, adopting an equitable
approach means prioritising the most vulnerable groups and communities to achieve more equitable outcomes. An assessment of
the funding allocation model is shown in Table 3 below:

Advantages
|
ACABx used the current
funding model to transition to regional funding from legacy arrangements
|
Uses latest population estimates to reflect future growth
Deprivation factor supports
equity for populations with complex issues and access constraints
Client usage as a proxy
indicator of community need which takes into consideration that service users
do not necessarily just access services in the area they live
|
More equitable across
Auckland with population-based funding covering all the region except Great Barrier
Island
Uses latest population
estimates to reflect future growth
Targeted deprivation
factor (NZDep2013, deciles 8-10) supports equity
for populations with complex issues and access constraints
Provides platform for
Auckland Council and ACABx to work together to develop a regional network provision plan
Supported by ACABx if
additional funding is retained
|
|
Disadvantages
|
The legacy
cluster funding arrangements do not provide for service development
Relies on 2013
census data
Does not target
funding for populations with complex issues and access constraints
|
Not supported by ACABx
because client usage data does not consider the range of complexity in
interactions from simple information requests to lengthy interviews
Redistribution of bureaux funding within
current funding envelope could lead to service reduction unless alternative
funding is sourced
|
Redistribution of bureaux funding within

28. A comparative
overview of the funding models is provided in Attachment C.
29. ACABx support
the new model conditional on the retention of the additional 2018-2019 one‑off
funding of $200,000 as part of the baseline operational grant. This increased
funding level would ensure that no bureaux would lose funding when the model is
implemented in 2019-2020. Increased funding enables the
inclusion of the Franklin population in the new funding model.
30. ACABx has
indicated that the funding for deprivation will be allocated to bureaux for
initiatives to enhance access to services and to trial the development of new
service models.
31. Staff
support the new model as it starts to address equitable services across
Auckland through population-based funding and targeted deprivation. The model provides a platform for future service
growth and the development of a regional network provision
plan for CAB services.
32. Staff support
the addition of $200,000 to the ACABx baseline grant from 2019-2020 to implement
the new model and extend service funding across the region. All bureaux will
receive their current or increased level of funding if council increases
baseline funding by $200,000.
Ngā whakaaweawe me
ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera
Council group impacts and views
33. Council staff
from across the business work cooperatively on matters concerning CAB.
Council departments and units that were consulted on the new model and involved
in regional network provision planning include:
· Community Facilities and Community Places –
administration of the leases for CAB premises and facility operation
· Libraries and Information – some CABs are
co-located with libraries
· Service, Strategy and Integration – expertise
in service design and integrating service offers.
Ngā whakaaweawe
ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe
Local impacts and local board views
34. Local
boards provided input to the 2017 review of CAB services, which has informed
the development of the new funding model. Local boards generally agreed that a
higher level of funding was required to maintain services, and that any funding
model needed to consider the area’s demographics and other needs in
addition to overall population.
35. Overall,
local boards reported that they had a good relationship with bureaux, that they
were providing valuable, wide-ranging services to the community, and that there
was room to improve reporting, service responsiveness and equity of funding.
36. Feedback
is sought from the local board on the proposed new funding model and the
retention of the additional $200,000 to baseline funding of $1.867 million provided to ACABx in 2018-2019.
37. Local board
feedback will be included in the report to the Environment and Community
Committee in May 2019 to approve a new funding model for CAB. The report will
also reflect views on the implementation of the new model from ACABx
consultation with bureaux.
Tauākī whakaaweawe
Māori
Māori impact statement
38. CAB
services are available to all, and there is currently limited targeting of
services to groups, including Māori.
39. Staff and
ACABx have worked together on development of the new model and no specific
engagement with Māori was undertaken.
Ngā ritenga
ā-pūtea
Financial implications
40. It
is recommended that the additional $200,000 is retained in the ACABx baseline
grant, bringing the annual total to $2.067 million in 2019-2021. This excludes
any consumer price index adjustment. The additional funding request for
the $200,000, is now part of the budget refresh process and includes Executive
Leadership Team and Governing Body decisions regarding approval for this
funding.
41. The
Māngere-Ōtāhuhu Local Board has provided funding from 2015-2018
to Māngere CAB to operate a CAB agency in Ōtāhuhu. Reliance on
the local board funding would reduce under the new model, as the Māngere
CAB would receive increased funding of 12 per cent if the $200,000 is retained
in the ACABx baseline grant.
Ngā raru tūpono me
ngā whakamaurutanga
Risks and mitigations
42. In applying
the new model without the retention of the additional $200,000, funding to the
following bureaux would decline:
· Helensville (-9 per cent)
· Wellsford
(-4 per cent)
· CAB
North Shore (-19 per cent)
· CAB
Auckland City (-2 per cent)
· Ōtara
(-10 per cent).
43. If the
grant is increased by $200,000 per annum, no bureaux would face a reduction in
funding.
44. There is a
risk of reduction in CAB services in some communities if funding declines to
bureaux. To mitigate this risk, it is recommended that the additional $200,000
is retained.
Ngā koringa ā-muri
Next steps
45. Local board
feedback will be included in a report to the Environment
and Community Committee in May 2019 to approve a funding model.
46. Staff will
work with ACABx to scope a regional network provision plan project
by June 2019. The plan development will involve bureaux
and other stakeholders in setting the direction for the CAB service from 2021
onwards.

Analysis and advice
13. Local board
members are invited to attend the conference. As the venue for 2019 is in Te Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington and given the cost of
elected member attendance, it is recommended that one member per local board
attend.
14. This means
that a maximum of 26 Auckland Council elected members would attend the
conference.
15. Delegates who
attend are encouraged to report back to their local boards.
16. In addition,
local board members can attend the AGM as observers, or as a delegate
(depending on the Governing Body decision), provided their names are included
on the AGM registration form, which will be signed by the Mayor.
17. LGNZ requires prior notice of which local board members plan to
attend the AGM. Members wishing to attend are asked to register their intention
with the Kura Kāwana programme by Friday 12 April 2019 so that this
information can be collated and provided to LGNZ.
Ngā whakaaweawe me

Council group impacts and views
18. The Governing Body will also consider an item on conference
attendance at its meeting on 28 March 2019 which will include the
recommendations that the Mayor is appointed presiding delegate to the AGM and
that three other delegates be appointed (one of which may be a local board
member). It is recommended that these delegates also attend the LGNZ
conference, along with any other Governing Body members up to a total of five
attendees.
Ngā whakaaweawe
ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe
Local impacts and local board views
19. The LGNZ
Conference has relevance to local board members and their specific roles and
responsibilities and is in line with the purpose provided for in the elected
member development budget.
Tauākī whakaaweawe
Māori
Māori impact statement
20. The LGNZ
National Council has a sub-committee, Te Maruata, which has the role of
promoting increased representation of Māori as elected members of local
government, and of enhancing Māori participation in local government
processes. It also provides support for councils in building relationships with
iwi, hapu and Māori groups. Te Maruata provides Māori input on
development of future policies or legislation relating to local government.
Councillor Alf Filipaina is a member of the sub-committee. Te Maruata will hold
a hui on 6 July 2019.
Ngā ritenga
ā-pūtea
Financial implications
21. The normal registration rate is $1410 (early bird) or $1510
(standard).
22. Costs of
attendance for one member from each local board are to be met from the elected
members’ development budget, as managed by the Kura
Kāwana Programme.
Ngā raru tūpono me
ngā whakamaurutanga
Risks and mitigations
23. The
key risk is of delayed decision-making impacting costs and registration
choices.
24. The
sooner the registration for the nominated local board member can be made, the
more likely it is that Auckland Council can take advantage of early bird
pricing for the conference and flights, all done via bulk booking.
25. Delayed
information may also impact registration into preferred conference streams or
events.
Ngā koringa ā-muri
Next steps
26. Once members
are confirmed to attend, the Kura Kāwana programme will co-ordinate and
book all conference registrations, as well as requests to attend the AGM.
