Resolution
number PKTPP/2020/28
MOVED by Deputy Chairperson J Fairey, seconded by Member
E Kumar:
That
the Puketapapa Local Board:
a) request
an urgent update on progress to complete the second land exchange between
Auckland Council and Fletcher Residential Ltd (FRL) in relation to the Three
Kings Reserve and depot area, as agreed by Auckland Council, FRL and the
Societies and as laid out in the settlement agreement reached between Three
Kings United Group and South Epsom Planning Group with FRL, in lieu of
further Court action, noting;
i) the importance of this
land exchange to achieving the open space and connection goals laid out in
the Three Kings Plan, and as noted in the Environment Court decisions;
ii) that the agreement between
FRL and the Societies allows FRL to build on the Western Reserve after June
2020 and for the Societies to take a Judicial review or other proceedings,
neither of which would be positive outcomes; and
iii) the
strong support of the local board for this land exchange to proceed;
iv) noting that PSR is developing a
concept plan for the Western Reserve and that any alternative access to and
from adjacent streets should be consistent with this plan; the development of
the Western Reserve could be taken into account when finalising commercial
terms for the land exchange.
b) seek
advice as to how Auckland Council’s regulatory and compliance officers
are taking a holistic approach to resident complaints in relation to works on
the quarry site, and looking at them as a group of issues that are impinging
on local residents over a long period of time and may have a cumulative
effect, rather than as one-off incidents occurring in isolation;
c) ask
FRL to work with the Local Board to improve their public communications
regarding changes to the carpark on Grahame Breed Dr, and access points to
the area usually referred to as Western Reserve, Three Kings Reserve and Big
King Reserve, during works in the carpark area, and encourage them to liaise
closely with Tupuna Maunga Authority and the Local Board as adjacent land
owners, including at the least;
i) maps at all
park entrances of the closures and redirections;
ii) a letter drop to
the local area;
iii) meeting with each of
the facilities in the area to discuss the carpark changes, including the Mt
Roskill Library, CAB, City Fitness, and regular hirers at the Fickling Centre
iv) visiting those living
adjacent to the remaining access points, in particular on Fyvie Ave, and
monitoring the impact on them through the alternative access arrangements.
d) ask
FRL to investigate:
i) providing
sections of the Grahame Breed carpark as an unsealed informal carparking area
for users of local facilities as construction works allow, once remediation
is complete.
ii) providing
more accessible alternative routes to Western Park, Three Kings Reserve and
Big King Reserve than they have proposed.
e) request
FRL and Auckland Council to reinstate the quarterly Site Liaison Group
meetings which have not met since November 2018, in regard to the quarry site
operations and filling, as per the Fill Management Plan, to keep the general
community up to date on development activities.
