Resolution
number HM/2019/41
MOVED by Member W Flaunty, seconded by Chairperson S
Henderson:
That the Henderson-Massey
Local Board:
a)
receive consultation feedback on the Henderson-Massey Local Board priorities for 2019/2020.
b)
approve the
following advocacy initiatives for inclusion (as an appendix) to its
2019/2020 Local Board Agreement:
|
Funding for a pool
in the north west.
|
Bring forward
funding in the Long-Term Plan to achieve earlier delivery of a pool in the
north west to meet existing and expected growth needs.
|
|
Funding for Te Whau
Pathway.
|
Allocate funding in
the Long-Term Plan to Te Whau Pathway project in recognition of the
important contribution it will make to the regional walking and cycling
network.
|
c)
receive
consultation feedback on regional proposals in the Annual Budget 2019/2020
and on the proposed amendment to the 10-year Budget 2018-2028 regarding
property transfer of legal ownership of properties within the council group.
d)
provide the
following feedback on the regional proposals in the draft Annual Budget
2019/2020:
|
Changes
to rates and fees
|
|
Proposal
|
Feedback
|
|
Increase to the
waste management targeted rate base charges.
|
Support the
increase.
|
|
Extending food
scraps collection targeted rates to the North Shore former trial area.
|
Support the
extension.
|
|
Phasing out the
Waitākere rural sewerage service and targeted rate.
|
Support bringing
on-site wastewater systems under a regional compliance scheme, noting that
improving water quality is a major issue for Auckland and the existing arrangement
in the Waitākere area has not delivered desired improvements.
Notes the minimal
impact for Henderson-Massey residents.
|
|
Adjusting the
urban rating area.
|
Support the
adjustment to incorporate areas that receive the same service as adjacent
urban neighbours.
|
|
Changes to rating
of religious use properties.
|
Notes that the
proposal in the consultation material was poorly expressed and lacked
context for the community and the board to understand adequately the
impact of the changes; consequently, the board has no position on this
matter.
Notes that under
the Local Government Act land used for religious worship, religious
education or as a cemetery is already not rated.
|
|
Increases to some
regulatory fees to maintain cost recovery
|
Support the increase.
|
e)
support the
proposed amendment to the 10-year Budget 2018-2028 regarding transfer of
legal ownership of properties within the council group, noting the proposal
is financially prudent and simplifies the handover of maintenance and
operational activities once developments are complete.
