Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board Long-Term Plan 2021-2031
File No.: CP2020/17595
Te take mō te pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To approve the Long-Term Plan (LTP) 2021-2031 of the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board (Reserves Board).
Whakarāpopototanga matua
Executive summary
2. In accordance with the Funding MOU signed in August 2019, completion of the 10-year LTP is a core reporting expectation of the Reserves Board. For the current reporting cycle this must be approved by the Reserves Board by 30 November 2020.
3. The theme for the LTP is MANA MOTUHAKE and reflects the ambition and strategy of Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei and the important role of the Reserves Board in supporting this ambition.
4. Key elements of the plan include: 1) increased capacity for Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei to manage the administration and whenua facilities; 2) focus on connection, access ways and mahi toi throughout the period of the long-term plan; 3) a small number of big ticket capex items including mara kai, whare waka, manaaki manuhiri facility and environmental improvements.
5. Overall projected funding requirements for the 10-year period covered by the LTP are $35.8m (excluding inflation adjustments).
6. In recognition of the financial constraints faced by Auckland Council, the initial 3-year period of the LTP reflects a reduction in the funding request compared to the prior LTP of $525k.
Recommendation/s That the Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei Reserves Board: a) approve the Long-Term Plan 2021-2031 including priorities and financial projections. b) agree that the Long-Term Plan now be submitted to Auckland Council for inclusion in the Council planning process |
