g)
provide the
following feedback on the Mayoral proposal (Attachment C of the agenda

That the
Ōrākei Local Board:
i)
agree on consulting
with the community on the Mayoral proposal of a 5 per cent rate increase in
the recovery budget.
ii)
note that while the
business case for the links to the Glen Innes to Tāmaki Drive Shared
Path Section Two is yet to be finalised, there is an expectation that an
increase of 5 per cent in the General Rate will enable the start of the
project in the first year of the Long-term Plan.
iii) note this increase will allow the retention of
the Local Board Transport Capital Fund and the retention of the Local Board
Transport Safety Fund at pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels.
iv) recommend that the long-term plan includes
provision for LDI capex that is at a funding level that allows local boards
to progress local projects not funded by renewals or growth.
v)
note its support for
the extension of the water quality targeted rate from 2028 to 2031 but
express concern at the excessive delay in the start of wastewater/stormwater
infrastructure works in the Hobson Bay catchment area currently scheduled for
2028 and request that these works be further accelerated to address health
and safety and ecological degradation.
vi) support consultation on the 5 per cent
increase in the water quality targeted rate in the expectation that this will
allow the earlier commencement of infrastructure remediation of the water
network in the Hobson Bay catchment.
vii) note its support for the extension of the
natural environment targeted rate from 2028 to 2031 in the expectation that
funding will be available for major environmental enhancement programmes such
as Pourewa Valley.
ix) is pleased to note that there are no new
targeted rates.
x)
note that the Board
will revisit its position on all aspects of the Mayoral Proposal following
analysis of community input.
