That the Albert-Eden Local Board:

c)      support the three key themes of the transport emissions discussion document which are: changing the way we travel; improving our passenger vehicles; and supporting a more efficient freight system.

d)      support changing the way we travel as a key theme, noting we:

          i.        support quality compact mixed-development urban form

ii.       support shaping our cities and towns for the future as the shape of our cities and towns is key to improving the overall efficiency of the transport system, and that land-use, urban development and transport planning need to be integrated to reduce emissions, especially over the medium to long term

iii.      note the need for both central and local government to more strongly integrate land use and transport planning and investments

iv.      support the delivery of mode shift for emissions reductions, noting that comprehensive cycling/scootering networks are needed in urban areas, along with more dedicated/priority bus lanes and better urban environments for walking

v.       support delivering mode shift through efficient use of existing street networks

vi.      acknowledge many people currently rely on driving for work and personal use and an overall reduction in car usage will improve carbon emissions and improve the travel experience for those who do need to drive.

j)       request that e-bikes and other small electric transport devices (such as scooters) be included in schemes to assist electric vehicle access and uptake.

Feedback on Te Waihanga New Zealand Infrastructure Commission's consultation document He Tūāpapa ki te Ora, Infrastructure for a Better Future, Aotearoa New Zealand Infrastructure Strategy

 

Emma Reed – Local Board Advisor, was in attendance to speak to this report.

 

Resolution number AE/2021/88

MOVED by Member J Maskill, seconded by Member WM McKenzie:  

That the Albert-Eden Local Board:

a)      generally support the Auckland Council submission.

b)      strongly support the following views:

         i.       that the New Zealand Infrastructure Commission needs to strengthen environmental considerations especially biodiversity and healthy water

         ii.      that the New Zealand Infrastructure Commission needs to strengthen reduction of emissions and commitment to compact urban form

         iii.     that properties used for Crown activities should be made rateable

         iv.     that a balance needs to be found between a focus on delivering quantity of housing and affordability with providing high quality urban environments.

c)      support that infrastructure planning processes should integrate costs of associated negative environmental costs and the cost of greenhouse gas emissions instead of externalising these to the natural environment.

d)      support that all infrastructure should generate net environmental benefits and reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.

e)      note that whatever the mechanism, infrastructure requires appropriate levels of funding from central government and local government revenue.

f)       support that high quality, intensified urban environments need to include access, within walking distance, to green spaces and trees to safeguard well-being and that planning of urban infrastructure should include planning for such access, including allocating developer contributions to provide these.

g)      note that Albert-Eden has approximately 24 blocks per square kilometre compared with the suggested walkability measure of 100 blocks per square kilometre, approximately 150 blocks per square kilometre in Stonefields and approximately 200 blocks per square kilometre in Hobsonville.

h)      request that Open Space Development Contributions collected in the Albert-Eden Local Board area are able to be spent in Albert-Eden to purchase properties when they become available to both meet the identified shortfall in Neighbourhood Parks and increase blocks per square kilometre to around 40 by 2050.

i)       welcome brown-field development in the Albert-Eden Local Board area whilst noting:

         i.       much of the existing infrastructure needs to be upgraded to accommodate present and future demands as much of it is ageing and being stretched beyond its original capacity

         ii.      the upgrading aspect of future infrastructure planning must be included in overall planning and prioritised, especially as part of implementing greater intensification for more compact urban form.

j)       request consideration is given to the Swedish model of a ban on new landfill and waste to energy incineration.

k)      thank Emma Reed – Local Board Advisor, for her attendance to speak to the report.
