budget 2020/2021
|
|

The Auckland
City Centre Advisory Board discussed its city centre targeted rate portfolio
priorities at a workshop prior to the meeting and noted the following:
·
the city centre has been severely impacted by the
COVID-19 lockdown and there are immediate issues in the city centre that
could benefit from the city centre targeted rate funds
·
request for support from the city centre
targeted rate funds to assist businesses that have been impacted by COVID-19
as part of the destination marketing fund allocation
·
the destination marketing fund allocation for
Heart of the City and Karangahape Road Business Association needs to be
reconsidered to assist the business associations with the COVID-19 impact
·
staff advised that $400,000 of operating
expenditure was not yet committed to a programme in 2021, and proposed to
come back to the board with a process for the allocation of this fund
·
the Emergency Budget 2020/2021 was approved
for public consultation commencing on Friday 29 May 2020 and may include some
projects from the city centre portfolio.
