Analysis and advice

11. Strategic assessments were undertaken for Margaret Griffen Park by the Parks and Places specialist to guide the development of the concept plans for the parks and allow consultation on the draft concept plans.

12. Consultation for both concept plans was undertaken with the community in August 2019, through the Auckland Council Have Your Say website and a drop in session for the Margaret Griffen Park concept plan at the Lynfield Leisure Centre on 20 August 2019.

13. A total of 13 online submissions were received for the Margaret Griffen Park concept plan. Some onsite consultation was also received at the drop in session held on 20 August 2019 at the Lynfield Leisure Centre for the Margaret Griffen Park concept plan.

14. The feedback received was generally supportive of the proposed works outlined in the draft concept plan. Feedback was received from the domiciled clubs who use the park such as the athletics club and scout group. Key themes from the feedback received were:

· adding internal path lighting

· detailed comments regarding accessibility and path layout

· requests for artificial turf and new changing rooms

· requests for more challenging play items.

· there was considerable unfavourable feedback regarding freedom camping at the park.

15. The feedback was assessed by Community Facilities Design team and, where appropriate, incorporated into the updated draft concept plan. This included the following items:

· provision of interpretative signage on site ecology and historical information of the park

· add to the general notes about improvements to the drainage

· edited the path layout around the scout hall to incorporate the feedback received thereby providing larger areas of uninterrupted lawn area

· edited the existing carpark and planting near the scout den taking on board the feedback from the scout group

· added notes to the plan to ensure existing footpaths are widened to the council’s standard 1.8 metres upon renewal

· added stream naturalisation works to the east of the YMCA, in accordance with Healthy Waters proposal for this area. This is currently unfunded and a long-term aspiration for the area

· relocated the proposed pump track to an area west of the wetland, across from the playground

· added a note to the concept plan to include more challenging elements to the playground when it is renewed in the future

· added a note to the concept plan regarding the use of tactile pavers in the carpark

· added a note to the concept plan regarding the replacement of the timber fencing with bollards for easier access to the park

· added a note to the concept plan regarding the non-slip material to the bridge, and that this bridge may need to be extended in the future to accommodate the stream naturalisation works.

16. Feedback that was received from the consultation but not included in the updated draft concept plan:

· altering the existing carpark to avoid the awkward pedestrian crossings. This is not possible without altering kerb lines and extending the footprint of the existing carpark

· artificial turf to the southern field – there is no plan to install artificial turf at the park

· limiting planting due to maintenance – planting needs to be increased to improve the habitat, offset carbon footprint and improve amenity in the park – this can be undertaken by the selection of the right plants and ensuring maintenance is carried out

· additional lighting – parks are not typically lit unless the accessways are on a main commuter route or next to a town centre where people could be reasonably and legitimately be expected to be there after dark

· concerns related to planting the waterway which may hinder “play” use by the scouts and others – this is a detail issue that can be discussed and resolved in the detailed design stage of the stream naturalisation project.

17. The updated concept plan was discussed and reviewed with the local board at a workshop in November 2019.

18. Amendments suggested for inclusion in the concept plan by the local board included:

· adding a note regarding an lighting needs assessment in parks in the Puketāpapa Local Board area to determine whether lighting of the paths in the park are required

· inclusion of bike racks near the entrance of the Lynfield Recreation Centre

· adding a point about considering whether a balustrade is required on the widened boardwalk

· adding a note about adding adult fitness equipment near the existing playground for adult use while children are playing.

19. The concept plan was finalised, including the above points, following this workshop and is attached as Attachment A.

Public feedback on proposal to amend the Alcohol Control Bylaw 2014

File No.: CP2021/00507

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.

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.

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.

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.

33. The majority of people identifying as Māori who provided feedback support the proposal. This is consistent with the overall percentage of public feedback in support.

Risks and mitigations

35. 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.
