Resolution number MR/2020/164

MOVED by Member T Gorrie, seconded by Deputy Chairperson M Atama:  

That the Manurewa Local Board:

a)      oppose the private plan change to rezone land at McLaughlin’s Quarry for the following reasons:

i)          the proposal would have adverse effects on the cultural value of the site and the broader cultural landscape, as expressed by Ahikiwi Marae, Ngāti Te Ata Waiohua, Tūpuna Maunga o Tāmaki Makaurau Authority, Ngāti Tamaoho and Te Ākitai Waiohua Waka Taua Incorporated in their submissions, and in the cultural impact assessments provided by Ngāti Te Ata and Te Ākitai Waiohua

ii)         the proposal would have adverse effects on the ecological values of the site and that the proposed rezoning of land by the Puhinui Stream from Open Space – Informal Recreation to Heavy Industry and Light Industry would increase discharges from businesses into the stream

iii)       the proposal would have adverse effects on the geological and archaeological values of the site

iv)       the proposal would have adverse effects on the amenity values and landscape values of the site

v)         the proposal does not provide sufficient protection for the outstanding natural feature values of the site as a volcanic explosion crater with associated features

b)      appoint Chair Joseph Allan and Members Anne Candy and Rangi McLean to speak to the local board views at a hearing on the private plan change.

Community Facilities’ Sustainable Asset Standard

 

A revised copy of figure 2 in the Community Facilities’ Sustainable Asset Standard report was tabled at the meeting.

A copy has been placed on the official minutes and is available on the Auckland Council website as a minute attachment.

 

Resolution number MR/2020/168

MOVED by Member R McLean, seconded by Member T Gorrie:  

That the Manurewa Local Board:

a)      support the Community Facilities Sustainable Asset Standard as an action of the Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri (Auckland’s Climate Plan)

b)      provide the following feedback to support the Governing Body’s consideration of the Standard as regional policy:

i)          note that the council has committed to reducing our own corporate emissions by 50 per cent by 2030, and that buildings and open spaces managed by Community Facilities (CF) accounted for roughly 68 per cent of the council’s carbon footprint in 2019

ii)         the board believes it is appropriate that CF adopts this standard as part of their contribution to achieving the council’s emissions reduction target

iii)       note that funding for this strategy has yet to be approved and will be considered as part of the 10-Year Budget process

iv)       the board believes that if the standard is adopted then it will need to be appropriately funded if it is to be effective, and that the cost to deliver certifications to meet the standard should not be funded from existing local board budgets

v)         note that adopting these standards will position the council to meet compliance changes to New Zealand’s building regulations expected in October 2021, from the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment Building for Climate Change programme.
