Urgent Decision to provide a submission on the Heritage New Zealand assessment of Stockade Hill, Howick for inclusion on the New Zealand Heritage List / Rārangi Kōrero

File No.: CP2020/08628

 

  

 

Te take mō te pūrongo

Purpose of the report

1.       To note that an urgent decision was made to provide a submission on the Heritage New Zealand assessment of Stockade Hill, Howick for inclusion on the New Zealand Heritage List / Rārangi Kōrero.

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

2.       At its meeting on 9 December 2019 the Howick Local Board resolved (HW/2019/159) the following in relation to urgent decision-making:

     That the Howick Local Board:

a)      adopt the urgent decision-making process for matters that require a decision where it is not practical to call the full board together and meet the requirement of a quorum;

b)      delegate authority to the chair and deputy chair, or any person acting in these roles, to make urgent decisions on behalf of the local board;

c)      agree that the relationship manager, chair and deputy chair (or any person/s acting in these roles) will authorise the urgent decision-making process by signing off the authorisation memo;

d)      note that all urgent decisions will be reported to the next ordinary meeting of the local board.

3.       An urgent decision was required in this instance because the board did not receive the notification on the Heritage New Zealand assessment until Monday 8 June 2020. Submissions needed to be provided by 4pm Friday 12 June 2020, prior to the next scheduled meeting on Monday 15 June 2020. If the local board did not provide a submission this would result in their input and views not being able to be included in Heritage New Zealand’s assessment of Stockade Hill, Howick.

4.       On 12 June 2020 the chair and deputy chair made an urgent decision on behalf of the board to provide a submission to Heritage New Zealand’s assessment of Stockade Hill, Howick for inclusion on the New Zealand Heritage List / Rārangi Kōrero. The urgent decision is included in this report as Attachment A.

 

 

Ngā tūtohunga

Recommendation/s

That the Howick Local Board:

a)   note the urgent decision made on 12 June 2020 to provide a submission on the Heritage New Zealand assessment of Stockade Hill, Howick for inclusion on the New Zealand Heritage List / Rārangi Kōrero.

b)   note the submission strongly supports the proposal to include Stockade Hill, Howick, Auckland, in the New Zealand Heritage List/Rārangi Kōrero as a Category 2 historic place.
