MOVED by Cr L Cooper, seconded by Cr C Darby:
That
the Emergency Committee:
a) endorse
the “Water Supply and Wastewater Network Bylaw 2015: 2020 Review
Findings Report” in Attachment A of the agenda report.
b) agree
that the statutory review of the Auckland Council Water Supply and Wastewater
Network Bylaw 2015 is complete, including that:
i) a
bylaw is still the most appropriate way to protect Auckland’s water
sources and water supply and wastewater networks from damage, misuse and
interference
ii) the
current Bylaw does not give rise to any implications and is not inconsistent
with the New Zealand Bill of Rights 1990
iii) the
current Bylaw approach to focus on the impacts of behaviours on the public
assets and to rely on customer contracts to address matters related to
connections to the public network is appropriate but could be improved.
c) request
that Watercare and Auckland Council staff jointly prepare an options report
in response to the findings in Attachment A of the agenda report.
