1 Welcome

Member Toni van Tonder will open the meeting with a karakia.

Whakataka te hau ki te uru Cease o winds from the west

Whakataka te hau ki te tonga Cease o winds from the south

Kia mākinakina ki uta Bring calm breezes over the land

Kia mātaratara ki tai Bring calm breezes over the sea

E hī ake ana te atakura And let the red-tipped dawn come

He tio With a touch of frost

He huka A sharpened air

He hau hū And promise of a glorious day.

Tīhei mauri ora

2 Apologies

At the close of the agenda no apologies had been received.

3 Declaration of Interest

Members are reminded of the need to be vigilant to stand aside from decision making

When a conflict arises between their role as a member and any private or other external

interest they might have.

The Auckland Council Code of Conduct for Elected Members (the Code) requires elected

members to fully acquaint themselves with, and strictly adhere to, the provisions of

Auckland Council’s Conflicts of Interest Policy. The policy covers two classes of conflict of

interest:

i. A financial conflict of interest, which is one where a decision or act of the local board could reasonably give rise to an expectation of financial gain or loss to an elected member.

ii. A non-financial conflict interest, which does not have a direct personal financial component. It may arise, for example, from a personal relationship, or involvement with a non-profit organisation, or from conduct that indicates prejudice or predetermination.

The Office of the Auditor General has produced guidelines to help elected members

understand the requirements of the Local Authority (Member’s Interest) Act 1968. The

guidelines discuss both types of conflicts in more detail and provide elected members with

practical examples and advice around when they may (or may not) have a conflict of interest.

Copies of both the Auckland Council Code of Conduct for Elected Members and the Office

of the Auditor General guidelines are available for inspection by members upon request.

Any questions relating to the Code or the guidelines may be directed to the Local Area Manager in the first instance.

4 Confirmation of Minutes

That the Devonport-Takapuna Local Board:

a) confirm the ordinary minutes of its meeting, held on Tuesday, 1 December 2020, as true and correct.

5 Leave of Absence

At the close of the agenda no requests for leave of absence had been received.

6 Acknowledgements

At the close of the agenda no requests for acknowledgements had been received.

7 Petitions

At the close of the agenda no requests to present petitions had been received.

8 Deputations

Standing Order 7.7 provides for deputations. Those applying for deputations are required to give seven working days notice of subject matter and applications are approved by the Chairperson of the Devonport-Takapuna Local Board. This means that details relating to deputations can be included in the published agenda. Total speaking time per deputation is ten minutes or as resolved by the meeting.

At the close of the agenda no requests for deputations had been received.

9 Public Forum

A period of time (approximately 30 minutes) is set aside for members of the public to address the meeting on matters within its delegated authority. A maximum of 3 minutes per item is allowed, following which there may be questions from members.

At the close of the agenda no requests for public forum had been received.

Public feedback on proposal to amend the Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014

File No.: CP2021/00372

Te take mō te pūrongo

Purpose of the report

1. To seek views on public feedback to the proposal to amend Te Ture ā-Rohe Whakararata Waipiro / the Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014 before a final decision is made.

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

2. To enable the local board to provide its views on public feedback to the proposal to amend the Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014, staff have prepared summary and deliberation reports.

3. The Bylaw continues to enable alcohol bans in public places to reduce crime and disorder caused or made worse by alcohol consumed there.

4. The proposal seeks to improve the Bylaw by including new temporary alcohol bans for major events at Rarotonga / Mount Smart Stadium, Waiōrea / Western Springs Stadium, Eden Park and Pukekawa / Auckland Domain, and by making the Bylaw easier to read and understand.

5. Staff recommend that the local board provide its views on public feedback to the proposal, and if it wishes, present those views to the Bylaw Panel. Taking this approach will assist the Panel and Governing Body to decide whether to adopt the proposal.

6. There is a reputational risk that feedback from the local board area is from a limited group of people and does not reflect the views of the whole local board area. This report mitigates this risk by providing local boards with a summary of all public feedback.

7. The Panel will consider all local board and Auckland Domain Committee views and public feedback, deliberate and make recommendations to the Governing Body on 19 March 2021. The Governing Body will make a final decision on 29 April 2021.

Horopaki

Context

The Alcohol Control Bylaw enables council to make alcohol bans

8. Te Kaunihera o Tāmaki Makaurau Te Ture ā-Rohe Whakararata Waipiro / the Auckland Council Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014 (Bylaw) aims to help reduce crime and disorder in certain public places caused or made worse by alcohol consumed there.

9. The Bylaw achieves this by providing a framework that enables alcohol bans to be made by resolution of the relevant delegated authorities – the Regulatory Committee, local boards and the Auckland Domain Committee.

10. The New Zealand Police enforce alcohol bans.

Council proposed amendments to improve the Bylaw for public feedback

11. On 24 September 2020 the Governing Body adopted a proposal to improve the Bylaw for public consultation (Item 15, GB/2020/109).

12. The proposal arose from a statutory review of the Bylaw (see figure below).

13. The proposal seeks to better reduce alcohol-related crime and disorder by making:

· new temporary alcohol bans for major events^{^[1]} at four regional venues (Rarotonga / Mount Smart Stadium, Waiōrea / Western Springs Stadium, Eden Park and Pukekawa / Auckland Domain)

· the Bylaw easier to read and understand.

14. The proposal was publicly notified for feedback from 10 October until 13 November 2020. During that period, council received feedback from 881 people.

Decisions leading to the proposal

The local board has an opportunity to provide views on public feedback

15. The local board now has an opportunity to provide its views on public feedback to the proposal by people from the local board area before a final decision is made.

16. Local board views must be provided by resolution to the Bylaw Panel. The local board can also choose to present those views to the Bylaw Panel on 19 March 2021.

17. The nature of the views is at the discretion of the local board. Any views must however remain inside the scope of the proposal and public feedback. For example, the local board could:

· indicate support for public feedback by people from the local board area

· recommend how the Bylaw Panel should address matters raised in public feedback.

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu

Analysis and advice

Feedback from people in the local board area supports the proposal

18. A total of 43 people from the local board area provided feedback to the proposal via online and written feedback.^{^[2]} There was majority support for the proposal both greater and lower than the total support from all people who provided feedback.

28. Four local boards suggested changes, some of which resulted in updates to the draft proposal (click link to view in 01 September 2020 Regulatory Committee agenda, Item 9).

29. This report provides an opportunity for the local board to give views on public feedback to the proposal by people from the local board area, before a final decision is made.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

30. The Bylaw has significance for Māori as users and kaitiaki / guardians of public space. Māori are also over-represented in alcohol-related hospital visits, the criminal justice system and as victims of crime.

31. Māori health advocacy organisations, Te Puni Kōkiri and the Tūpuna Maunga Authority support the use of alcohol bans as a tool to reduce alcohol-related harm.

32. The Tūpuna Maunga Authority provided general feedback on the proposal noting that Tūpuna Maunga are subject to alcohol and smoke-free policy that supports the spiritual, cultural and community significance of the maunga.
