Avondale Library and Community Hub Concept Plan

File No.: CP2021/08573

 

  

Te take mō te pūrongo

Purpose of the report

1.       To approve the finalised concept design of the new Avondale Library and Community Hub (including public realm) located 1971-1987 Great North Road, Avondale.

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

2.       Eke Panuku and Community Facilities are working in collaboration to deliver the new Avondale town square, library and community hub. Community Facilities leads the delivery of the building and has engaged Athfield Architects as the design lead. Eke Panuku leads the delivery of the surrounding town square and public realm upgrade and has engaged The Isthmus Group as the design lead.

3.       Public consultation was held between 21 April to 20 May 2021 with feedback received on the proposed final concept plans (consultation document). Overall, the response was positive particularly around room sizes, views of the surrounding area and the modern design. However, four key themes were identified as areas for further consideration:

 

Four Key Themes

Issue

Proposed Response

Car parking

 

The majority of submitters indicated that the proposed 16 carparks maybe insufficient to service the facility.

Eke Panuku to progress an opportunity to create 34 new public car parks at the end of Racecourse Parade that could service the facility.

Playground

The feedback received on the outdoor space queried the lack of a dedicated playground.

Play activities of equivalent value will be incorporated into the outdoor space. This will be detailed further in the next stage of the design.

Size of facility

The feedback received indicated that many submitted queried the size of the facility is sufficient to meet Avondale’s growing population.

The proposed size of the facility was determined through data modeling that takes into account the future growth of Avondale. One of the advantages of this location is the potential for future expansion.

The kitchen and its location

Overall, the feedback was positive on the inclusion of a commercial kitchen. However, there were queries around how it will be serviced and how access will be provided to the community spaces.

In response to the feedback the design was reviewed. The layout of the reserve level has been adjusted to accommodate external equipment and an additional simple kitchenette facility adjacent to the Community Hall (MPS2). The full catering kitchen remains adjacent to the Community Room (MPS3).

Recommendation/s

That the Whau Local Board:

a)      approve the finalised concept design of the new Avondale Library and Community Hub.

 

Horopaki

Context

4.       In August 2016 the Central West Community Needs Assessment and Facilities Investigation report was presented to the Whau Local Board. The assessment confirmed declining service provision at the Avondale Community Centre due to its poor condition and identified demand for a quality multi-purpose space for a range of community, leisure, and arts activities.

5.       The new Avondale Library and Community Centre was identified as a priority in the Whau Local Board Plan 2017 under Outcome 1: Well-planned towns, facilities, and housing. The expected benefits of the new facility include improved service, enhanced community wellbeing, improved social connectedness and urban renewal.

6.       In September 2017 the Whau Community Facilities Indicative Business Case was presented to the Environment and Community Committee in a confidential report. The indicative business case recommended a new integrated library and community centre be built in the heart of Avondale Town Centre. The expected benefits of the new centre include urban renewal, improved service, enhanced community wellbeing and improved social connectedness. Funding of $21 million was allocated to the new Avondale Library and Community Hub (formerly known as the multi-purpose community facility) in the 2018-28 Long Term Plan.

7.       In 2017 Eke Panuku identified Avondale as a priority location area. Eke Panuku is tasked with enabling urban renewal, primarily this is a result of significant opportunities for urban intensification in the town centre. The Whau Local Board endorse Eke Panuku’s High Level Project Plan (HLPP) for Avondale in October 2017.

8.       In 2018 Auckland Council, Eke Panuku and Auckland Transport undertook a process to identify a preferred location for a new facility. The identified site was chosen to maximise the benefits of co-locating a new library and community facility, town square and open space and best created a new heart to the town centre. This site is also well located to support future growth in Avondale. The Whau Local Board approved the preferred site location in December 2018.

9.       The approved site location required the acquisition of four privately-owned properties from 1971-1987 Great North Road, Avondale using the Public Works Act 1981 (PWA). Eke Panuku was requested to lead this process and these properties have now been secured. Three of the four properties were required through willing agreement and the fourth property located at 1971-1973 Great North Road was acquired through compulsory acquisition.

10.     In 2019 community engagement to determine the community’s requirements and aspirations for the new multi-purpose facility was undertaken by council. The consultation with the community was conducted in two phases, the initial phase of formal consultation ran from 19 March to 9 May. The second phase used community discussion groups to build on and refine the findings of the initial consultation to inform the design brief for the multi-purpose facility. The design brief vision and key provisions were approved by the Whau Local Board on 28 August 2019.

11.     Eke Panuku and Auckland Council have continued to collaborate. The Eke Panuku Unlock Avondale Programme includes a project to deliver a town square and surrounding public realm upgrade to complement the new multi-purpose facility and enhance the wider regeneration benefits for Avondale.

12.     In October 2020, Athfield Architects were engaged by Community Facilities as the design lead for the multipurpose facility and The Isthmus Group were engaged by Eke Panuku as the design lead for the upgraded town square and public realm (surrounding outside spaces).

Analysis and advice

13.     Community Facilities and Eke Panuku are working in collaboration with each other and closely with:

·     Connected Communities, Auckland Council

·     Regional Service Planning, Investment and Partnerships, Auckland Council

·     Parks, Sport and Recreation (PSR), Auckland Council

·     Auckland Transport

·     Mana whenua.

14.     On 31 March 2021, the Whau Local Board endorsed the consultation plan to obtain community feedback on the proposed concept design. The public consultation was held between 21 April to 20 May 2021 where feedback was received on the concept plan (consultation document) and the following specific questions.

·    What do you like about the design plans?

·    If there was one thing you could change to make it better, what would that be?

·    How will you and your whanau use the new building?

·    How will you and your whanau use the outdoor spaces?

·    Do you have any other comments about the design plans?

                        Figure 1

 

15.     A total of 315 pieces of feedback were received with over 80 per cent of feedback received digitally. The general public were engaged through two library drop-in sessions, two town square activation events, and specific groups directly; including a Pasifika Talanoa, Whau Pasifika Komiti, Avondale Intermediate School students, Plunket, Citizens Advisory Bureau, the Whau Ethnic Collective and the Avondale Library staff.

16.     The analysis of the feedback is summarised below. See attachments for the full report.

Avondale town square, library and community hub consultation feedback summary

Q1 What do you like about the design plans?

Q2 If there was one thing you could change to make it better, what would that be?

Q3 How will you and your whanau use the new building?

Q4 How will you and your whanau use the outdoor spaces?

Q5 Do you have any other comments about the design plans?

Overall, the most liked aspect of the design was the building and layout. There was positivity around the room sizes, the views of the surrounding area and the modern design it incorporated. A recurring criticism was that the building wasn’t big enough for Avondale’s growing population

Overall, the majority of submitters believed the design needs more parking spaces, to accommodate the growing population and number of visitors. Comments tended to have a negative connotation around only 16 proposed parking bays.

 

Overall, submitters said they were going to use the new building with their whānau for the library. Key reasons included that they enjoyed taking their kids to library days and looked forward to sitting with a book in one of the quiet areas and enjoying the good views.

Overall, people indicated they would use the outdoor space with their whānau for recreation purposes, activities like sitting and enjoying the views, having BBQ’s and just relaxing in the area.

Most responses related to an idea they had for the building layout that were not in the current plans. These range from altered building designs to changing the sizes of the rooms and amending the kitchen plans.

Feedback was received on a wide range of topics relating to detailed aspects that will be addressed in later design stages. Overall, the response was positive particularly around room sizes, views of the surrounding area and the modern design. However, four key themes were identified as areas for further consideration:

A.  Car parking

B.  A dedicated playground

C.  Size of facility

D.  The kitchen and its location.

 

17.     A. Car parking

There are 133 public off-street car parks available in Avondale - refer Figure 2 below. Seventy-six of these car parks are part of the current library and community facility site earmarked for future development. In addition, there is an area of informal parking on the Avondale Central site (6 Racecourse Parade) adjacent to the project site which is also a future development site. The remaining 57 car parks in the council managed car park located on Rosebank Road will be retained.

In response to the feedback received, Eke Panuku reviewed the options to provide more car parks. There is an opportunity to create a new car park for approximately 34 car parks on a site at the end of Racecourse Parade (see Figure 3 above). Discussions are also continuing with Auckland Transport to increase the amount of parking in the slipway (the parking bay in front of the proposed facility on Great North Rd) from 16 to 20. Eke Panuku has confirmed that the Racecourse Parade carpark could be incorporated into the Unlock Avondale Programme. The timeline for completion would align with the completion of the town square, library and community hub.

18.     B. Playground

The feedback commentary focused on retaining or including the playground in some form.

Diagram

Description automatically generated

The adjacent figure shows the potential future provision of a play space in the reserve. The design team have undertaken further work to ensure play value or playground activities can be incorporated alongside ‘play along the way’ features e.g., stepping stones, balancing beams, sound tubes, etc. The next stage of the design will focus on detailing these activities.

 

 

 

19.     C. Size of Facility

Community Facilities undertook an assessment on the size of the facility required for the current and future needs of the Avondale community. This involved using a data modelling tool to determine the required capacity. The current size allocated in the concept plan is consistent with the planning work undertaken, meets the Community Facilities Network Plan provision guidelines and the funding approved by the Governing Body. It recognises that the new facility is part of a wider network of community spaces. One of the advantages of the chosen location is the opportunity for future expansion. No change in size is recommended at this point in time.

20.     D. Kitchen and its location

Overall, the feedback was positive on the inclusion of a commercial kitchen. However, there were queries around how it will be serviced and how access will be provided to the community spaces.

 

The layout of the reserve level has been adjusted to accommodate external equipment and an additional simple kitchenette facility adjacent to the Community Hall (MPS2). The full catering kitchen remains adjacent to the Community Room (MPS3), refer Figure 5 below.

  Figure 5 – Existing Layout                                                         Figure 6 – Revised Layout

In Figure 6 above, the proposed plan shows how the ‘catering’ kitchen can be used for serving both spaces as well as separate teaching, community meetings and connection to the external gardens. This layout enables a lobby to be added to MPS2, improves the shape and proportion of the space as well as the efficiency of the mechanical plant area at street level. This design change has been incorporated into the finalised concept plans.

Climate impact statement

21.     Building and public realm operational emissions are to be minimised through the design of the building. Renewable energy will be utilised to off-set any remaining operational emissions. The project will increase greenhouse gas emissions through construction activity and the use of materials. These embodied emissions will be reduced, but not eliminated through design changes via lifecycle analysis of building form. The selection of materials within the public realm will seek to limit the use of high emissions materials e.g., concrete and where possible use lower carbon alternatives. The project aims to minimise transport emissions through its town centre location and close proximity to active and public transport connections.

22.     Climate change is likely to subject Avondale to increased temperatures, increased frequency and severity of drought conditions, and increased flood risks. Additionally, heat vulnerability will likely be exacerbated due to low tree canopy cover levels. This project aims to protect significant trees and to increase the site's net tree canopy cover. Through these actions, materials choices in the public realm, and water sensitive design strategies, the project aims to reduce the project's vulnerability to and contribution towards the urban heat island effect and the effects of flooding. The building will utilise passive design principles of daylighting and natural ventilation. Paired with renewable energy generation and reduced potable water consumption, the project aims to further reduce its vulnerability during potential severe climate events.

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

23.     Community Facilities and Eke Panuku are in collaboration to deliver two separate but integrated projects: Community Facilities leads the delivery of the new Avondale Library and Community Hub, and Eke Panuku the delivery of the surrounding upgraded town square and public realm. Both projects will be viewed as one by most stakeholders and described collectively as the new Avondale Town Square, Library and Community Hub in this document and community consultation. There is regular and ongoing communication between the two teams which have separate budgets, project managers and design leads but shared outcomes, milestones, project governance, regulatory processes, and community and stakeholder engagement.

24.     The project has been accepted by the Auckland Council Premium Resource Consents team due to its complexity and political importance. This process facilitates early regulatory engagement with asset owners including Auckland Transport to ensure better strategic alignment and a smoother consenting process.

25.     Auckland Transport has strategic interest in the project and has participated in the location selection process. The slip lane adjoining Great North Road is currently road reserve, and the concept design of town square includes a redesign of this space. It is essential that Auckland Transport’s future planning and the redesign of this space for the facility are aligned. The project team proposed the road stopping of the slip lane and negotiations through the premium team are underway. Auckland Transport has indicated it would be more likely to support a shared space between Auckland Transport and Auckland Council. Auckland Transport has also been advised that the lane from Great North Road to access future development of the racecourse (running to the East of the facility) will be a walking and cycling facility only. There is no room for vehicular access which if pursued would also have negative impacts on the outcome of the design.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

26.     Community involvement has included defining the service requirements, input into the design brief and feedback on the concept plan. A new, integrated, fit-for-purpose community facility and public realm will have positive impacts on the services, programmes and activities available to the Avondale community.

27.     The Whau Local Board endorsed the findings of the community consultation and resulting Avondale Multi-purpose Community Facility and Public Realm Design Brief - 28 August 2019.

28.     The design teams will continue to work with key service providers e.g., CAB and Plunket as they work through detailed design.

29.     Engagement with the Whau Local Board during the concept design phase in Nov 2020, March 2021 and June 2021. The results of the community consultation were presented to the Whau Local Board in June 2021.

 

 

 

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

30.     The community needs assessment (2016) engaged with both mana whenua (Te Rūnanga o Ngāti Whātua) and residents within the community who identify as Māori. Over 200 people who identified as Māori participated in the community needs assessment.

31.     The comments provided by Māori were reflective of the rest of the community feedback and are reflected in the analysis and development of options.

32.     Māori would like to see activities that support the health and wellbeing of whānau. The primary activities requested were those that support whānau spending time together.

33.     Māori were interested in seeing a stronger connection between communities and education to support more children and young people to reach their potential. For them this means community values, priorities and ways of learning being much more strongly integrated into educational settings, and valuing learning in different settings such as community settings.

34.     Following the needs assessment, a mana whenua working group (including representatives from Te Ākitai and Te Kawerau ā Maki) was set up with regular meetings from May 2019. A mana whenua vision for the project was developed and is included in the design brief and informed the concept design. It includes the underlying principle of hononga – connection, relationship and bond. Hononga underpins the project in its entirety, from how we work together, the services and design of the facility through to how the facility is operated when it opens.

35.     The mana whenua working group reviewed the concept design prior to public consultation and there continues to be ongoing engagement on how the design of the facility will:

·     remember and celebrate the local and wider cultural landscape

·     express cultural identity and sense of place

·     provide for cultural welcoming processes and protocol.

36.     The concept design was also presented on 29 March 2021 to the Eke Panuku mana whenua forum.

37.     There is a shared commitment with mana whenua for ongoing involvement as the project progresses.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

38.     Funding of $21 million for the Library and Community Centre is approved in the 2018-2028 Long term Plan. The Finance and Performance Committee resolved at its November 2017 committee meeting [FIN/2019/168] to sell the current library and community facility site located at 93-99 Rosebank Road subject to it no longer being required by Community Facilities. The proceeds of sale will be ring-fenced and made available to implement this project.

39.     Funding of $7 million for a public realm upgrade including a town square and access lane is provided for in the approved Avondale Programme Business Case. The business owner (Auckland Council) has confirmed that budget is available for ongoing consequential costs and is prepared to accept these costs as part of the future operational budget subject to LTP funding.

40.     The acquisition of land for the new facility has been completed and funded by Eke Panuku to ensure a smooth transition of services.

41.     The ongoing operating costs will be reviewed once the new facility has been completed and transferred from the existing library and community centre to the new facility.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

42.     There are a number of risks and uncertainties in respect to the delivery of the new facility.

Project Risks

Site risk to property acquisition

Risk of increased costs, timeline and negative public exposure.

This risk is mitigated.

All four shops are now owned by Auckland Council. It is noted that the lease terms of some of the properties may need to be amended to protect construction timetable, Compensation may need to be provided in some cases.

Changes in open space provision around the town centre

 

Reduction in open space on Avondale Central Reserve.

 

The new library and community hub abutting the town square and Avondale Central Reserve will activate, and improve the quality and safety, of the spaces.

The local board and Eke Panuku are advocating for additional open space in Avondale on the Avondale Racecourse.

Increase in civic space and public realm on both sides of the building.

Service delivery in Avondale is disrupted by the sale of the existing site

Community needs and expectations regarding community services in Avondale are not met

Continuity of services will be maintained.

 

Community opposition to location or design process

Delivery will take longer.

 

More resource will be required to work with community.

Community Facilities and Eke Panuku have a joint communications and engagement plan.

Community consultation took place in April/May 2021 with generally positive feedback see Analysis and Advice Section for main themes and proposed response.

Proceeds of sale from existing site are less than anticipated

Funding shortfall for the purchase of the new site.

 

Eke Panuku will manage the sale of the existing site.

If there is a funding shortfall in the sale, then solutions will be further explored through a business case.

Site specific conditions are not favourable e.g., geotechnical constraints, contamination

 

Cost and time required to remediate may impact overall project budget and timelines.

GWE (Geotech Consultations) has been engaged to do detailed a site investigation to further explore the design options.

Cost escalations from previous project estimates

 

Available funding is not sufficient to complete project.

 

Management through design and project delivery such as value engineering and Project Steering Group review.

Covid impacts of material supply chain, timeline and resource uncertainty

Increase of costs and delay in delivery.

Ongoing risk, some of which must be accepted and mitigated by contract management and planning.

Current design not within budget

Available funding is not sufficient to complete project.

Value engineering and Project Steering Group review.

Site risk - revocation of part of Avondale Central Reserve not being approved

If an objection to the revocation is found to be valid then it could be upheld and risk the revocation of the reserve.

If revocation can’t proceed then then there will be significant cost and design implications.

 

Timeline for public objections has been considered within the timeline. Mitigated through early consultation and approval in principle with Local Board, Parks and relevant local authorities which support the revocation. Unlikely to have a valid objection as the area of reserve to be revoked will continue to be community space.

Road stopping of slip lane (AT road reserve) adjacent to GNR

Quality of the design will be negatively affected if the slip lane cannot be included in the design, i.e. town square and access to the main library.

If Auckland Transport retains strategic control of the slip lane a risk remains that future strategies will not align and negatively impact the building.

Early discussions with Auckland Transport have indicated that they do not support the stopping of the road and but would support a shared space. A shared space allows for a bespoke agreement of shared ownership. Negotiations are ongoing.

Public realm scope increased in size

Original budget may not be sufficient to accommodate the increase in civic space.

Budgets may need to be revised to deliver larger public realm. This will be progressed once additional quantity surveying complete. If additional funding is not available staging may be required.

 

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

43.     If the concept design is approved the design will be reviewed against the budget and Community Facilities and Eke Panuku will prepare a detailed business case for each project. The detailed business case will seek approval and budget from the Project Steering Group (building) and Panuku PCG (public realm) to progress to detailed design, resource consent and delivery. The current projected timeline for both projects, is outlined below.

·    June 2021 – Concept design approved by Whau Local Board

·    August 2021 – Detailed Business Case approved by the Project Steering Group and Panuku PCG

·    January 2022 – Developed Design

·    November 2022 – Detailed Design

·    March 2023 – Construction Commenced

·    August 2024 – Facility Handover.

Note, the timeline above is subject to change.

44.     Community Facilities and Eke Panuku will proceed with their respective Detailed Business Cases in order release the budget for detailed design and delivery for both financially discreet projects.

45.     The project site will require the partial revocation of Avondale Central Reserve, this process will be initiated once the concept design is approved, and the precise area determined.

46.     The Whau Local Board will continue to be updated regularly on project progress.

Approval of the 2021/2022 Whau Local Board Customer and Community Services work programme

File No.: CP2021/07843

 

  

 

Te take mō te pūrongo

Purpose of the report

1.       To approve the 2021/2022 Whau Local Board Customer and Community Services work programme and approve in principle the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 work programmes (Attachment A).

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

2.       This report presents the 2021/2022 Whau Local Board Customer and Community Services work programme with associated budget for approval, as well as the subsequent two financial years, 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 work programmes for approval in principle.

3.       The local board approves the work programme each financial year. Delivery of the approved work programme will support the local board to achieve the outcomes and aspirations in the Whau Local Board Plan 2020.

4.       The work programme details the activities to be delivered by departments within the Customer and Community Services directorate.

5.       The work programme has been developed through a series of workshops between December 2020 and May 2021, where the local board provided feedback to staff on project and activity prioritisation.

6.       The work programme development process takes an integrated approach to scoping activity, involving collaboration between staff from across council and the local board.

7.       Several projects in the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 work programme have been identified as part of the Risk Adjusted Programme. Approval is sought for the planning and design of these projects to commence during 2021/2022, so that they are ready to be delivered early if approved projects for delivery in 2021/2022 are delayed for any unforeseen reason.   

8.       The work programme includes projects proposed to be funded from regional budgets subject to approval by the relevant Governing Body committee. The local board can provide formal feedback on these regional projects through resolution to this report.

9.       The most significant risk to successful delivery of the 2021/2022 work programme is a change in COVID-19 alert levels that would impact delivery timeframes and budget.

10.     Updates on the progress of the work programme delivery will be provided through the local board’s quarterly performance reports.

Horopaki

Context

11.     Customer and Community Services provide a wide range of services, facilities, open spaces and information that support communities to connect, enjoy and embrace the diversity of our people, places and natural environment. These are tailored to the unique needs of the local community in a place-based approach.

12.     The 2021/2022 Customer and Community Services work programme (included as Attachment A) outlines the local board’s priorities to be delivered within the financial year.

13.     The work programme aligns to council plans, policies and strategies. Each activity in the work programme delivers to a specific objective relating to one or more of the following 2020 Local Board Plan outcomes:

·        Outcome 1 – Strong, resilient and inclusive communities where local identity, diversity and creativity are nurtured.

·        Outcome 2 – Māori aspirations are advanced and prioritised, and Māori history and identity are valued and reflected in our community spaces.

·        Outcome 3 – Quality urban development and community facilities to meet the needs of our growing and changing population.

·        Outcome 4 – Improved and expanded opportunities for walking, cycling and public transport.

·        Outcome 5 – Our natural environment is protected and enhanced.

·        Outcome 6 – Thriving town centres a strong local economy and neighbourhoods that are supportive and connected.

14.     Development of the work programme is based on the understanding of:

·        local community needs

·        service and asset availability

·        funding availability

·        the work performed by other parties, including iwi partners, Council Controlled Organisations, community groups and commercial enterprises

·        risks

·        feedback received from the local board at workshops.

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu

Analysis and advice

15.     Delivery of the work programme is the realisation of the local board’s aspirations for their community, as identified in the Whau Local Board Plan 2020.

16.     The local board has discretion to allocate a portion of their budget to a project or activity that they identify as a priority across the three-year work programme period.

17.     Out of the initiatives signalled in the local board plan, the local board has prioritised the activities to be delivered in the next three years within available budgets.

18.     The work programme provides a three-year view that demonstrates the phasing of programme and project delivery for the following financial years:

·        2021/2022 (to be approved)

·        2022/2023 (to be approved in principle)

·        2023/2024 (to be approved in principle).

19.     The local board can approve the work programme for the first financial year and subsequently, delivery of this activity will commence from 1 July 2021. The local board can approve the following two years in principle only.

20.     This allows the work programme to be presented in a future focused way that shows how the local board plan will be responded to for the entirety of its three-year strategy, without locking down future investment before that activity is properly scoped.

21.     The local board will approve the 2022/2023 work programme in June 2022 and approve the 2023/2024 work programme in June 2023. This will include opportunity to make changes to these work programmes prior to approval, including adding or removing activities and budget allocations, unless funding has already been committed.

22.     However, approval of unique multi-year projects, particularly capital works, in the 2021/2022 work programme will commit the local board to the future funding associated with completing the project in 2022/2023 or 2023/2024.

23.     The work programme includes a continuation of delivery from previous financial years, including annually occurring events or projects, ongoing programmes, new activities and investments, and potential carry-forward items.

24.     Regular updates on the delivery of the programme will be provided to the local board through quarterly performance reports. These updates will identify progress of all projects, highlight risks, and advise if amendments to the budget or delivery timeframes are required.

COVID-19 recovery is a priority for Customer and Community Services

25.     A priority of the work programme is to deliver activities that respond to the impacts of COVID-19 on the following:

·     newly vulnerable communities

·     council financial constraints

·     building community resilience for recovery.

26.     Customer and Community Services is positioned well to deliver services that are key to the economic and social recovery of communities most in need, including by providing:

·     safe and welcoming spaces

·     inclusive events to bring the community back together

·     community supports, including grants

·     stronger connections with other organisations, including Council Controlled Organisations, iwi partners, business associations, community organisations and central government agencies who also serve our communities.

Delivering outcomes for, and with, Māori

27.     Council has important statutory obligations with respect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi – The Treaty of Waitangi. The strategic framework that informs council’s delivery and performance measurement of Māori outcomes is Kia Ora Tāmaki Makaurau Māori Outcomes Measurement Framework.

28.     Within this strategic framework, Customer and Community Services is responsible for leading activities that deliver against the following outcomes and objectives in Table 1.

Table 1: Kia ora Tāmaki Makaurau outcomes and objectives

Mana outcome

Outcome statement

Mahi objective

Kia ora te Marae

Marae are centres of excellence for whānau Māori and have an abundant presence in communities.

Invest in marae to be self-sustaining and thriving hubs for Māori and the wider community.

Kia ora te Whānau

Empowered whānau Māori across Tāmaki Makaurau.

The council group will enable whānau Māori to experience relevant and welcoming public facilities and services. It will support Māori-led services where appropriate.

Kia ora te Reo

Ko te reo Māori te mauri o te mana Māori.

The council group supports te reo Māori be seen, heard, spoken and learned throughout Tāmaki Makaurau.

29.     The work programme includes activities that have an objective to deliver moderate to high outcomes for and with Māori in one or more of the following strategic priority areas:

·     Kaitiakitanga

·     Māori business, tourism and employment

·     Māori identity and culture

·     marae development

·     papakāinga and Māori housing

·     realising rangatahi potential

·     te reo Māori

·     whānau and tamariki wellbeing.

30.     Activities in the work programme that aim to achieve high Māori outcomes in one or more of the strategic priority areas are identified in Attachment B.

31.     The Whau Local Board work programme includes 24 activities that are identified as delivering moderate to high outcomes for Māori.

32.     Progress updates on delivery of Māori outcomes will be provided to the local board through quarterly performance reports.

Types of budget

33.     Work programme activities are funded from budget sources dependent on the type of delivery. Some activities within the work programme have budget allocated from two or more sources, including budgets from both local and regional programmes.

34.     Table 2 outlines the different budget types and their purpose that fund the work programme.

Table 2: work programme budget types and purpose

Budget type

Description of budget purpose

Locally Driven Initiatives (LDI)

A development fund used to advance local operational and capital activities at the discretion of the local board

Asset Based Services (ABS)

Allocated by the Governing Body to deliver local activities based on decisions regarding region-wide service levels, including allocation of funds for local asset-based services

Local renewals

A fund dedicated to the renewal (servicing or replacement) of assets including those in local parks and community facilities

Growth (local parks and sports field development)

Primarily funded through development contributions, a regional fund to improve open spaces, including developing newly acquired land into parks, and existing open space to increase capacity to cater for growing population needs

Coastal

A regional fund for the renewal of Auckland’s significant coastal assets, such as seawalls, wharves and pontoons.

Landslide prevention

A regional fund to proactively develop new assets for the prevention of landslides and major slips throughout the region

Specific purpose funding

Funds received by the council from external sources held for specific local board areas and service agreements including compensation funding from other agencies for land acquisitions required for major projects

One Local Initiative (OLI)

Funds allocated by the Governing Body to a local board priority project in alignment with the Long-term Plan 2018-2028

Long-term Plan discrete

Funds associated with activities specifically named and listed in previous long-term plans, including new libraries, community centres and major sports and community infrastructure

Kauri Dieback Funding

As part of the Natural Environment Targeted Rate (NETR) Fund, this is a regional fund from the Environment and Climate Change Committee used to implement the national kauri dieback programme standards

External funding

Budget from external parties, not yet received and held by Customer and Community Services

Capital projects and budgets

35.     The capital works programmes have been geo-spatially mapped to indicate the location of projects within a local board area.

36.     Attachment C demonstrates the year of the three-year work programme that capital budget is proposed to be allocated to specific projects and indicates the main funding source for each project.

37.     Activity budgets for capital programme delivery are estimates only, as costs are subject to change and to be refined as the activity / project progresses through the design and delivery process. Greater clarity will be determined once activity details are defined with the work programme updated accordingly.

38.     Some projects are unable to be mapped as they reference multiple locations, or the work locations are yet to be determined.

Risk Adjusted Programme

39.     The Risk Adjusted Programme was implemented in 2019 and is designed to mitigate risk so that the total budget is delivered.

40.     Several capex projects in the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 work programme have been identified as part of the Risk Adjusted Programme as highlighted in Attachment A.

41.     Approval is sought for the commencement of these projects in the 2021/2022 financial year, so that they can replace delays in projects that may not be delivered for unforeseen reasons.

 

Regionally funded activities included in the local board work programme

42.     There are activities, from the Coastal Renewals, Landslide Prevention and Local Parks and Sports Field Development and the Natural Environment Targeted Rate budgets, which are funded regionally and will be approved by the Governing Body after 30 June 2021.

43.     These activities are included in the work programme because the local board has decision-making responsibility for that activity within the parameters set by the Governing Body, which include project location, scope and budget.

44.     These activities may be conducted by a number of teams, including within the Customer and Community Services and Infrastructure and Environmental Services directorates.

45.     The local board can provide feedback on the activities outlined in Attachment D. This feedback will be presented to the relevant Governing Body committee when they consider regionally funded activities.

Process for changes to the approved work programme

46.     Staff will provide progress updates to and seek approval from the local board if there are any projects that require scope, budget or timing changes throughout the financial year, or if activities need to be cancelled or added to the work programme.

47.     The work programme includes community leases. Straight-forward lease renewals without variations will be processed in accordance with agreed delegations through a written memo. Expired and more complex community leases will be workshopped with the local board and reported to a business meeting.

48.     For a change to the work programme considered to be minor, in that it does not substantially alter the approved work programme, staff will workshop this with the local board and then implement the change. A description of the change will be included in the following round of quarterly reporting.

49.     A change to the work programme that is considered substantial, will be presented to the local board at a business meeting for approval.

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi

Climate impact statement

50.     In June 2019, council declared a climate emergency and in response to this, council adopted the Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland’s Climate Plan in July 2020.

51.     Each activity in the work programme is assessed to identify whether it will have a positive, negative, or neutral impact on greenhouse gas emissions and impact on resilience to climate change.

52.     To deliver on climate goals, Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri includes eight priorities for action:

·     natural environment

·     built environment

·     transport

·     economy

·     communities and coast

·     food

·     Te Puāwaitanga ō te Tātai

·     energy and industry.

53.     The work programme indicates which of these priorities each activity responds to.

54.     Attachment E outlines the activities in the work programme identified to have a positive and negative climate change impact.

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

55.     The work programme is presented at a directorate level which reflects the integrated approach to developing the activities between the directorate’s departments of:

·     Connected Communities

·     Community Facilities

·     Community and Social Innovation

·     Parks, Sport and Recreation

·     Regional Service Planning, Investment and Partnerships.

56.     The Customer and Community Services work programme was developed through a collaborative approach by representatives from across council departments, directorates and Council Controlled Organisations. The integrated team developed the proposed work programme with the local board through a series of workshops.

57.     Some of the activities in the work programme are delivered collaboratively between directorates, for example the Kauri Dieback programme.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

58.     Delivery of the work programme is the local board’s implementation of outcomes and objectives in the Whau Local Board Plan 2020.

59.     The feedback received from the local board through a series of workshops from December 2020 to May 2021 has informed the proposed Customer and Community Services work programme in Attachment A.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

60.     Consideration is given to how the provision of services, facilities and open spaces can support the aspirations of Māori, promote community relationships, connect to the natural environment, and foster holistic wellbeing of whānau, hapu and iwi Māori.

61.     In the local board area, 9.9 per cent of the total population identify as Māori.

62.     The work programme includes activities that will have an impact on a service, facility, or location of significance to Māori. In these situations, appropriate and meaningful engagement and consultation will be undertaken, including to meet our obligations under Te Tiriti o Waitangi – Treaty of Waitangi.

63.     Activities identified as delivering a moderate and high level of Māori outcomes are presented as Attachment B.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

64.     The financial implications of the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in a reduced renewals budget per local board and significantly reduced development budgets for growth.

65.     Each activity line has a budget allocation for delivery in one or more of the financial years (e.g., 2021/2022, 2022/2023 and 2023/2024). Where activity lines show a zero-dollar budget, this reflects implementation costs met through staff salary or other funding sources.

66.     The 2021/2022 activities recommended for local board approval can be accommodated within their draft 2021/2022 budgets.

67.     The budgets allocated to activities in the financial years 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 are indicative only and are subject to change due to any increased costs, inflation or reduction to the overall available annual council budget that may occur.

68.     Table 3 summarises the budget sources for each work programme financial year.

71.     Where an activity is cancelled or no longer required, the local board can reallocate the budget to an existing work programme activity or create a new activity within that financial year.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

72.     If approval of the Customer and Community Services work programme is not obtained, there is significant risk that the activities within it will be delayed or not delivered.

73.     Table 4 outlines the key risks and mitigations associated with the work programme.

Table 4: risks and mitigations

Risk

Mitigation

Non-delivery, time delays and budget overspend of activities that are managed through the work programme.

Having agreed processes to amend the work programme if activities need to be changed or cancelled.

Utilising the Risk Adjusted Programme to progress those activities identified as ready to proceed under the Risk Adjusted Programme at the beginning of the financial year.

Unknown risks associated with trialling a new activity for the first year.

Risks and mitigations for new activity lines are considered during the scoping phase, continually assessed and reported to the local board.

The COVID-19 pandemic could have a negative impact on the progress of the work programme as some activities cannot be delivered if there is an increase in an alert level.

Development of the work programme has included consideration for all activities regarding potential impacts on delivery in the event of alert level changes.

Some activities may be delayed but still deliverable within the agreed timeframes.

Where activities need to be cancelled the local board can reallocate budget to other activities.

74.     The majority of activities in the work programme are ongoing and annually occurring. Risks associated with these activities have been identified in previous years and are managed on an ongoing basis.

75.     Other risks may also exist, including with respect to the health, safety and wellbeing of council staff. Work programmes may also need to be adjusted where these risks exist and cannot be safely mitigated via control measures.

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

76.     Delivery of the work programme will start following approval by the local board and continue until 30 June 2022, with progress reported to the local board on a quarterly basis.

77.     Regional projects will commence after approval by the Governing Body in July 2021. The local board will receive the first quarter report in November 2021.

78.     Where the work programme identifies further decisions and milestones for activities, these will be brought to the local board when appropriate.

Horopaki

Context

9.       Each year, the local board decides which activities to allocate its annual budget toward through a series of workshops. The local board feedback in these workshops has informed the development of the Infrastructure and Environmental Services work programme (Attachment A).

10.     The proposed work programme responds to the outcomes and objectives identified in the Whau Local Board Plan 2020. The specific objectives reflected in the work programme are:

·    more safe, attractive and high-quality walking and cycling connections are developed and carbon emissions from our transport system are reduced

·    innovation and disruptive technologies are embraced where they can provide safe, low-carbon alternatives to private vehicle use

·    prepare communities for the impacts of climate change by building community resilience and reducing carbon emissions

·    our streams, waterways and harbours are protected, and their mauri is restored

·    our communities are supported to exercise the principle of kaitiakitanga in their local areas

·    more trees and native plants are planted in the Whau, alongside strengthened advocacy to protect existing significant trees.

11.     The following adopted strategies and plans also guided the development of the work programme:

·    Whau Local Low Carbon Plan

·    Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland’s Climate Plan

·    National Policy Statement – Freshwater Management

·    Mahere ā-Rohe Whakahaere Kaupapa Koiora Orotā mō Tāmaki Makaurau: Regional Pest Management Plan.

12.     The development of the work programme has been informed by staff assessments and identification of local environmental priority areas, and feedback received from the local board at workshops.

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu

Analysis and advice

13.     The proposed work programme is made up of activities continuing from previous financial years, including annually occurring events or ongoing programmes. It also includes a new initiative supported by the local board. These programmes contribute towards the delivery of the Whau Local Board Plan 2020 environmental objectives, as detailed above.

14.     The work programme (Attachment A) provides a three-year view that demonstrates the phasing or continuation of programme delivery over the 2021/2022, 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 financial years.

15.     This report seeks local board approval for budgets and activities in year one of the three-year work programme (2021/2022), and approval in principle for 2022/2023 and 2023/2024.

16.     Approving in principle does not commit the local board to funding in future years, as the budget for years two and three will still need to be approved on an annual basis. However, approval in principle will help staff, contractors and community groups to plan activities and resourcing in the longer-term.

17.     Budgets for years two and three are subject to change, as the programmes are further refined or if local board priorities shift.

18.     The proposed activities for delivery as part of the board’s 2021/2022 Infrastructure and Environmental Services work programme are detailed below, alongside indicative plans and budgets for the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 financial years:

Climate action network – $9,000

19.     The local board has indicated that it would like to continue to support the climate action network in the 2021/2022 financial year. The local board allocated $9,000 towards this programme in 2020/2021 (then known as the low carbon network). Both the Puketāpapa and Waitematā local boards have indicated they will continue to support the network in 2021/2022.

20.     A low carbon network is a community-led network of individuals, households, community groups, and businesses working together within the local board area to promote, support and implement community level low carbon activities.

21.     The network provides an opportunity for networking and collaboration for residents, businesses and practitioners undertaking low carbon activities in or connected to the local board area, as well as a forum for promoting and hosting low carbon events.

22.     This network will continue to be supported by a community climate action broker, who will empower members of the network. A stronger community resilience to climate change will be achieved through building community connections and sharing skills.

23.     The programme will help implement the local climate action plan in collaboration with the local board and neighbouring climate action networks. In particular, the climate action network will help achieve the local board’s commitment to reduce climate impacts through guiding local action in response to the regional climate emergency.

24.     Approval in principle is also sought for $9,000 towards this programme from the local board in both 2022/2023 and 2023/2024.

EcoMatters programmes – $99,750

25.     The local board has indicated that it would like to continue to fund EcoMatters Environment Trust. This will enable the trust to continue to deliver a number of environmental programmes in the Whau Local Board area. For the 2020/2021 financial year the local board funded $111,150 towards EcoMatters programmes.

26.     For the 2021/2022 financial year the programme has a total of $99,750. The projects proposed for delivery are listed in Table 1 below, with a brief description and the key deliverables the trust will provide through these projects.

33.     The programme encourages businesses to take ownership of specific areas of a stream to achieve positive environmental and social outcomes, improving social responsibility in the area for businesses to implement best practice on site to protect waterways.

34.     In 2021/2022 the programme will focus on visiting industry in the Kelston area, targeting automotive, retail and hospitality businesses. The funding provided will allow visits to approximately 40 businesses.

35.     Staff are not proposing to continue this programme in 2022/2023 as most of the businesses will have been visited by the contractor. It may be revisited in future years.

Manukau Harbour Forum – $7,400

36.     The board has indicated that it would like to continue to fund the Manukau Harbour Forum in the 2021/2022 financial year. The board is one of nine local boards who make up the Manukau Harbour Forum (Franklin, Māngere-Ōtāhuhu, Manurewa, Maungakiekie-Tāmaki, Ōtara-Papatoetoe, Papakura, Puketāpapa, Waitākere Ranges, and Whau Local Boards). These local boards border the Manukau Harbour and have an interest in protecting and restoring the mauri of the harbour.

37.     In 2020/2021, each of the member local boards provided $1,750 to co-fund the Manukau Harbour Forum and $43,650 was carried forward from the 2019/2020 financial year. This was allocated to several activities including a Manukau Harbour Forum coordinator, a youth sustainability wānanga, and a youth freshwater monitoring training programme.

38.     Staff recommend that each of the nine member boards contribute a further $7,400 each towards the forum in the 2021/2022 financial year, allowing a total budget of $66,600. Staff recommend that this funding supports:

·        a Manukau Harbour Forum coordinator to assist with the delivery of the forum’s goals ($45,000)

·        funding for a youth sustainability wānanga which would involve around 50 students from all member local board areas to develop leadership skills, sustainability knowledge, and collaborative action projects ($15,000)

·        Hoopla: Haere mai ki wai Te Whau, an experience of the Whau River by kayak of the overlooked and difficult to access spaces of the wai Te Whau. The tour will be focussed on building relationships and understanding in support of improving the environment in and around the Whau River, looking at the history and ecology of the river and how the view of the river may change with greater public access from the completion of Te Whau pathway.

47.     The network will be convened by members of the Whau community and facilitated by council staff. The Whau Wildlink Strategy was completed in April 2021 and is the guiding document for this group. The benefits of this funding include:

·        local native ecosystems are protected and enhanced, providing safe refuge for native wildlife

·        collaboration and coordination of community efforts towards environmental outcomes

·        people becoming more engaged through partnering with the local board and the council to protect biodiversity.

48.     Approval in principle is also sought for $45,000 towards this programme from the local board in both 2022/2023 and 2023/2024.

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi

Climate impact statement

49.     In June 2019 Auckland Council declared a climate emergency and in response to this the council adopted the Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland’s Climate Plan in July 2020.

50.     Each activity in the work programme is assessed to identify whether it will have an impact on greenhouse gas emissions and contributing towards climate change adaptation.

51.     Table 2 outlines the key activities in the 2021/2022 work programme that have an impact on greenhouse gas emissions or contribute towards climate change adaptation.

Table 2: Climate impact assessment of proposed activities

Activity name

Climate impact

Climate action network

This project aims to increase community climate resilience by building community connections and skills sharing.

EcoMatters programmes

EcoMatters initiatives respond to Auckland Council’s climate emergency declaration and commitments to address climate change by supporting and enabling community climate action. Projects aim to reduce carbon emissions and increase community resilience to climate impacts, using currently available solutions for immediate progress. Community climate action involves local residents reducing or responding to climate change in personal lifestyle or local community-based ways, creating new social norms.

Friends of Oakley Creek restoration programme

Freshwater ecosystems provide many services such as flood mitigation, habitat for native biodiversity and carbon sequestration (riparian planting). These services are enhanced when the ecosystems are restored.

Industrial Pollution Prevention Programme (Kelston)

When freshwater ecosystems are healthy and thriving, they provide many ecological services such as flood mitigation, habitat for native biodiversity, and carbon sequestration through riparian plants. This educational programme will inform business owners how to mitigate the risk of stormwater pollution, ultimately increasing healthy freshwater ecosystems.

Manukau Harbour Forum

This programme will provide resilience to the community by ensuring waterways and the marine environment are protected and enhanced. Freshwater and marine ecosystems provide many ecosystem services such as flood mitigation, habitat for native biodiversity and carbon sequestration. These services are enhanced when the ecosystems are restored.

Oakley Creek pest plant control buffer project

Protection of native trees through undertaking pest plant control will increase carbon sequestration. Carbon sequestration is the long-term removal, capture or sequestration of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to slow or reverse atmospheric carbon dioxide pollution and to mitigate global warming.

Whau Wildlink

The project will contribute to fewer native plants being eaten by pests, hence the survival and regeneration of increasing amounts of native vegetation. This will contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions in large areas of the Whau. It will also contribute to greater carbon sequestration and pollution absorption by native plants, as well as oxygen levels produced by these native plants.

 

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

52.     The work programme was developed through a collaborative approach by operational council departments, with each department represented in the integrated team that presented the draft work programme to the local board at a series of workshops.

53.     In particular, the attached Infrastructure and Environmental Services work programme reflects the integrated activities developed by Environmental Services and Healthy Waters. Natural Environment Strategy staff will be coordinated with on work related to the Manukau Harbour Forum.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

54.     The projects proposed for inclusion in the board’s Infrastructure and Environmental Services work programme will have positive environmental outcomes across the Whau Local Board area.

55.     The projects noted above align with the local board plan outcome ‘our natural environment is protected and enhanced’. The proposed work programme has been considered by the local board in a series of workshops from December 2020 to May 2021. The views expressed by local board members during the workshops have informed the recommended work programme.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

56.     Auckland Council is committed to meeting its responsibilities under Te Tiriti o Waitangi and its broader obligations to Māori.

57.     The work programme includes activities that aim to deliver outcomes for and with Māori, in alignment with the strategic priority areas outlined in Kia ora Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland Council’s Māori Outcome Framework). Progress on how the activities are achieving these outcomes will be reported to the local board on a quarterly basis.

58.     Staff recognise that environmental management, water quality and land management have integral links with the mauri of the environment and concepts of kaitiakitanga.

59.     Table 3 outlines the activities in the 2021/2022 work programme that contribute towards the delivery of specific Māori outcomes.

 

 

 

Table 3: Māori outcome delivery through proposed activities

Activity name

Māori outcome description

EcoMatters programmes

The funding provided by the local board to EcoMatters has an impact on Māori wellbeing and building capacity for Māori. EcoMatters regularly hold traditional Māori weaving workshops as part of their seminar and workshop education programme.

There is potential for healthy homes on a budget to contribute to Māori well-being through educating Māori groups about energy, water and waste, which may result in financial savings and home livability improvements.

Manukau Harbour Forum

Māori youth will be involved in the youth sustainability wānanga and are supported to develop and implement projects relevant to them and their communities. The wānanga also engages with kaumātua from Makaurau Marae to provide advice and mātauranga Māori that informs programme delivery. During the wānanga, te reo Māori is actively promoted, as a key component of programme delivery.

Whau Wildlink

Mana whenua representatives have been approached to be involved in the group. A number of the groups have programmes with a strong focus on kaitiakitanga and Māori identity and culture including Whau-tilla.

 

60.     Where aspects of the proposed work programme are anticipated to have a significant impact on activity of importance to Māori then appropriate engagement will be undertaken.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

61.     The proposed environment work programme for 2021/2022 totals to $185,650 of the board’s locally driven initiatives (LDI) operational budget. This amount can be accommodated within the board’s total draft budget for 2021/2022.

62.     Budgets for activities in the 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 financial years are indicative. While local board approval in principle is being sought for these future years through this report, formal approval will be sought on an annual basis, once budgets and programme costs are confirmed.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

63.     If the proposed Infrastructure and Environmental Services work programme is not approved before the start of the financial year, there is a risk that activities may be delayed or not delivered within the financial year.

64.     Risks and mitigations for new activity lines were considered during the scoping phase. There may be risks associated with trialling a new activity for the first year. These will be continually assessed and reported to the local board.

65.     The COVID-19 pandemic could have a further negative impact on the delivery local board work programmes if the COVID-19 Alert Level changes (New Zealand’s 4-level Alert System specifies measures to be taken against COVID-19 at each level). The deliverability of some activities will decrease if there is an increase to the COVID-19 Alert Level. Drought conditions may also lead to delays in any programmes which involve planting.

66.     Resourcing of the work programme is based on current staff capacity within departments. Therefore, changes to staff capacity may also have an impact on work programme delivery.

67.     Attachment B shows the key risks associated with activities in the proposed 2021/2022 work programme, as well as proposed mitigations.

68.     Where a work programme activity cannot be completed on time or to budget, due to unforeseen circumstances, this will be signalled to the local board at the earliest opportunity.

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

69.     Delivery of the activity in the approved work programme will commence once approved and continue until 30 June 2022. Activity progress will be reported to the local board on a quarterly basis.

70.     Where the work programme identifies further decisions and milestones for each activity, these will be brought to the local board when appropriate.

Climate impact statement

13.     The Local Board Grant Programme aims to respond to Auckland Council’s commitment to address climate change by providing grants to individuals and groups for projects that support and enable community climate action. Community climate action involves reducing or responding to climate change by local residents in a locally relevant way. Local board grants can contribute to expanding climate action by supporting projects that reduce carbon emissions and increase community resilience to climate impacts. Examples of projects include local food production and food waste reduction; increasing access to single-occupancy transport options; home energy efficiency and community renewable energy generation; local tree planting and streamside revegetation; and educating about sustainable lifestyle choices that reduce carbon footprints.

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

15.     The grant programme has no identified impacts on council-controlled organisations and therefore their views are not required.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

and stay for as long as they need our help.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

By accessing literacy assistance, adults learn skills that enable them to become independent and contributing members of society and in their whanau. Many adults with literacy needs feel isolated and disconnected. Literacy assistance gives them the confidence to help their children with their homework and support their school, for example, to become job ready and seek employment, to set new goals for themselves such as accessing higher education, and to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty and disadvantage. 
Literacy gives people hope.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Our most in need have a place to go for help

 

Communities are strong when the neediest individuals in it are equipped to deal with all challenges that come their way. 
NZ-born learners with low literacy who struggle with learning and refugees and migrants who arrive in New Zealand with many disadvantages by way of funds, language, education, qualifications, ability to start work, knowledge of our culture and systems, trauma and learning difficulties, family disruption, health. Our basic literacy service helps them address many issues by introducing them to the language, culture and systems they must navigate to live here successfully. Our students thrive in a warm and friendly environment and leave with skills which help them navigate everyday life in New Zealand and may lead to further education, work or vocational training.

"Breathing being a miracle, what if I can’t find peace?  There are a lot of things in life that I can’t control, and circumstances.
Maybe if I don’t rely on externals I could be happier. My choice is breathing; it just happens but conscious breathing is not taking each breath for granted. Just like life is a miracle.
Now I’m trying to be conscious of each breath and grateful; this releases me from my thoughts and allows space. It allows me to know my worth as being of life. Breath doesn’t judge itself; it is unconditional love of life."

Identified community outcomes:

 

Benefits of support groups
Reinforce and clarify information learnt from health professionals
Provide access to new information on lung health
Share experiences in a caring environment
Empower patients to be more actively involved in their healthcare through self-management techniques
Participate in social activities and exercise programs
Encourage patients to think more positively about their lung disease
Help carers understand lung disease
This will be an ideal opportunity for people with COPD and their families to discuss ways of making people more aware of COPD and how to cope with this debilitating disease.   Our aim is to support and provide information to those who are living with COPD or who have a family member who is living with COPD.  If they  feel alone and isolated, support groups can help. It feels good to talk with others who understand, which has a positive impact on their health.
Many COPD patients find they feel isolated & depressed. Connecting with social support through Support Group with pulmonary rehabilitation programs, and breathing exercises & find help to stop-smoking make them maintain a good quality of life while living with their condition. Alone we-can-do-so little. Together we can make a difference to the people with COPD.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Our most in need have a place to go for help

 

There is no cure for COPD, but the good news is that it can be found early. Much can be done to treat and help manage the disease. Through medications, oxygen therapy, pulmonary rehabilitation and social support, many people are able to live with their disease for many years. Asthma New Zealand with the help of other funders  has been distributing free Nebulizer, Peek Flow Meters & Spacers to people with COPD in the community.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

The burden of  Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is estimated to affect 15% of all New Zealanders aged over 45 years. It is the fourth leading cause of death in New Zealand.
COPD disproportionately affects Māori and Pacific peoples in New Zealand. It is essential that people most at risk of COPD receive support and education about smoking cessation, the impact of COPD and the importance of early detection. 
To reduce this gap Asthma New Zealand  adopt a tailored approach towards COPD management in Māori and Pacific peoples that focuses on community awareness, early diagnosis, smoking cessation and education for patients and their families.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Glen Eden Community & Recreation Hall, 44 Glendale Rd Glen Eden - this hall have all the facilities for old people with poor mobility and it accessible to people with disabilities.

Target ethnic groups:

 

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major and growing cause of morbidity and mortality with smoking being recognized as its most important causative factor. 
Smoking is also a trigger for COPD flare-ups. Smoking damages the air sacs, airways, and the lining of the lungs. Injured lungs have trouble moving enough air in and out, so it's hard to breathe.
(COPD) can affect many aspects of the life. But there are some ways to help reduce its impact.
Quitting smoking is the best thing can do to protect the lungs and keep COPD symptoms from getting worse. This can help the people with COPD stay more active and enjoy life.

Additional information to support the application:

The Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Support group provides help and advice for people diagnosed with COPD. The group invites guest speakers to talk about areas of health which are relevant or interesting to members of the group. The group is run in an informal way. The group encourages social interaction and aims to relieve/reduce the isolation felt by people with COPD. 
We can see greater improvements in exercise performance and self-efficacy for exercise have been shown for people with COPD who received education and psychosocial support through this support groups.

Legal status:

Activity focus:

Conflicts of interest:

None identified

Project: Kitchen & Couch Replacement

Location:

Green Bay Community House, 1 Barron Drive, Green Bay, Auckland

Summary:

1. We would like to purchase new serveware, including cutlery, crockery and serving platters for our Community House Kitchen. This would allow us to further eliminate waste, as hire groups often use disposable items, as we do not have enough crockery to be of use to a large group gathering.
 
2.We would also like to provide our elderly users with a more comfortable couch and some cushions as they struggle to use the existing furnishing. These are ripped and damaged, so by having a new version, it would install more respect and trust in the Community House and encourage users to keep it clean and looked after.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

1.The Community will benefit by having sustainable serveware available for them to use for their events and meetings. The short term benefits of having the crockery available to them will be a cost saving to them, by not having to purchase disposable items, and the fact that it is so much nicer to enjoy delicious kai on a china plate, rather than on plastic.
The long term benefits will be seen by waste minimisation, not only in our centre, but hopefully it will change attitudes going forward and encourage sustainable behaviour from our community.
 
2.The elderly and disabled members of our community will benefit greatly from new accessible and comfortable furnishings. The current couch is difficult for them to get in and out of and we would hate for anyone to have a fall and injure themselves. The new furniture would be more comfortable and make it easier for them to spend increased time sitting and enjoying their socialisation, activities and cups of tea.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Whau is living more sustainably

 

We would like to use this funding to purchase new crockery and cutlery and some more serveware for our Community House. Over the years the sets we did have have either been broken or been taken.
By having new sets it would enable us to continue with our waste free mission, by eliminating the use of disposable plates etc that are often used by our hire groups. 
Therefore we will encourage our users to live more sustainably by setting such positive example, and reinforcing the need to be sustainable in their everyday lives. 
 
The second part of our project refers to safer, cleaner and busier communities as we would like to  purchase a new couch and some cushions for our Fantail room. The current couch has a large hole in the side and is falling to pieces. We had to remove the old cushions after Covid as they did not have removable covers and were too hard to clean. This means our older community house users struggle to get comfortable with the lack of back support, and we want this to be a safe, clean and comfortable space for them to use.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our Community house is full accessable to those with disabilities. We have many mobility impaired visitors who find our centre easy to use. This project will directly impact these users as they will benefit from the new couch and be made much more comfortable while attending their class. We also have groups of disabled adults attending activities who enjoy our classes, and the social aspect that it brings to their day. They too will be able to enjoy the benefits of the new furnishings and the crockery etc

Target ethnic groups:

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

We are a Smoke Free Centre and do not allow smoking or vaping within the premises.
Our project is dedicated to waste minimisation by focusing in reducing the waste created by disposable plates etc
We encourage healthy options for our tamariki in the holiday programme, and ensure they all have water in their drink bottles. We are also starting a healthy lunch box programme in June with the support of Kai Whau.
The community House has a range of fitness classes available, and we are starting a new community exercise class in May aimed at 40+ and moving more in your 'golden years'

Project: Deaf Youth Teaching WHAU Home-School Communities

Location:

WHAU community centres

Summary:

Merge NZ wants to offer work experience to the Deaf Youth of Ko Taku Reo Deaf Education NZ, assistance during the transition from school to the real world. We also recognise that there are many home-school communities in the community who are interested to learn NZSL. So during their transition, Merge NZ will train the Deaf Youth on the proper professional way of training, and provide them the opportunity to teach the home-school community. However, the home-school community doesn't have the fund to pay the full training course, so we can offer them 50% of our usual rate but because we need to pay a fair rate to the Deaf Youth, we are seeking subsidy to fund the remaining 50%.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

For the Deaf Youth:
* It provides confidence and skills for our Deaf Youth to equip them for the real world. 
* It will boost their own Deaf Identity and a better understanding about NZSL as their native language
* When they are equipped, chances of getting a job will be higher, which means less dependency on the government which also help ease the burden of the welfare system.
 
For the home-school communities, it provides many benefits to the kids:
* an opportunity to learn a new language which happens to be one of the official languages of New Zealand;
* it's easier for kids to pick up the language;
* social interaction for the kids who are from the home-school environment where they do not have the same amount of social interaction of those in school;
* open them to a new culture, the Deaf culture and interaction with someone from the Deaf community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Our most in need have a place to go for help

 

Our project benefits Deaf Youths and the home-school communities of WHAU.
 
Merge NZ wants to offer work experience to the Deaf Youth of Ko Taku Reo Deaf Education NZ, by assisting them during the transition from school to the real world. Merge will offer training for these students to understand about New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL) tutor’s role and teaching resources. 
 
We also recognise that there are many home-school and school communities in WHAU who are interested to learn NZSL. So with the proper trainings for the Deaf Youths, they are able to teach the kids of the home-school communities NZSL, that will help increase their confidence and competency. This will help Deaf people having a better access and participation in the society. A win-win situation for all.

The beauty of New Zealand Sign Language is that it incorporates lots of Maori words in the language, eg. kia ora, hangi, haka etc. and it's an enhancement to the home-school kids to know and understand Maori words through New Zealand Sign Language.
Also, because NZSL is such a visual language, most of the signs of Maori word actually derives from the meaning of the word.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - This project is by default already benefitting the Deaf community since we are providing opportunities for Deaf Youths to obtain work experiences and sharing their culture and the knowledge of New Zealand Sign Language which is the official language of New Zealand.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

The above are great ideas which can be adopted and incorporated in the curriculum and added to teaching materials.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$2,380.00

Requesting grant for:

The part of the funding we would required is mainly for venue booking, learning and teaching resources, NZSL training for Deaf Youth before delivering actual NZSL teaching, promotional materials and 50% of the course fee for each home-school kid.They are not able to pay the full normal fee, but to be fair to the Deaf Youth, we need to pay them the full training fee. What we intend to do is to charge the home-school community 50% of the course fee and we need funding for the other 50% in order to pay the Deaf Youth's fee and tutor's time.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We are currently working on 2 groups of 35-40 students each. If the budget reduces, it means we might have to look at reducing the number to 1 group, that automatically will reduce the cost of venue hire, printed activity sheets, etc.

Cost of participation:

The cost fee is $12 per child per session, but we are only charging 50% of it, and seeking funding for the other 50%.

to encourage physical activity in the form of non-contact boxing. Participants learn the
fundamental movements required in boxing, gain fitness and benefit from the values of
learning a martial art that transcend into their mental wellbeing.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

We endeavour to empower our tamariki with the values and tools to see the greatness
within themselves through the art of boxing. Youth that are better equipped with strong
foundations and good role models are more likely to grow into adults that are a positive
impact in their community. Finding enjoyment in sport and exercise is also vital at a young
age as this will likely influence healthy choices later in life, thus lessening the burden of
unhealthy adults in our community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Our children and young people are supported to learn and be active

 

Sticks & Stones Youth Boxing Programmes (SXS SchoolBox, SXS YouthBox, Project Durga) are designed to use non-contact boxing as a vehicle to empower our tamariki and rangatahi with the tools required to see the greatness within themselves. Our programmes endeavour to give participants the opportunity to build confidence, competence, connection and character. These fundamental values will give our youth the skills to value and take responsibility for their physical and mental health through engaging in future physical activity and sport for life, whether it be boxing or any other sport or physical activity they wish to pursue in the future.

Project: Sailing Helmets

Location:

Predominantly on the Waitemata and Manukau Harbours (but on many waterways throughout NZ)

Summary:

We are applying for sailing helmets for our water based activity. This is a recent initiative by the Association to afford the highest level of H&S to our members to protect them from head injuries when out on our boats/water. This will become a compulsory requirement by the end of the year, hence the need to purchase helmets so that we can continue to involve the youth in water sports.
 
This application is for an initial purchase of 40 helmets (or number than can be funded from the proceeds of this Grant) while we determine how to procure the balance of our need (100 helmets total)

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The community benefits are our ability to continue to offer an affordable, attractive, active and educational programme to the youth in our community centred around water activity. This supports the end goal of Scouting re the development of community minded / well rounded citizens.
 
The alternative is for New Lynn to request that members purchase their own helmets, but this may create a financial barrier for many towards participation.
 
The New Lynn Scout Group has a proven track record of supporting the community in this way since approximately 1910/11. 
 
New Lynn also regularly loans our water based equipment to other community groups and schools so they can provide a range of experiences for their communities without cost. Therefore, the extent of eth benefit of this application is wider than our local group.

Alignment with local board priorities:

Water sports provides the obvious physical activity (rowing / sailing/ kayaking etc) to encourage active lifestyles. This is also a learning environment for both the technical skills of the activity being undertaken and also for the underlying important life skill development of the membership through teamwork, communication, goal setting, commitment etc.
 
New Lynn regularly supports events (regattas) both locally, regionally and nationally so that the youth members can test themselves against their peers and experience new learning environments.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our Group has always embraced people with physical and or mental disabilities with our activities. This is not seen as a barrier to participation, and in fact helps to accelerate the underlying development of life skills due to the interaction with the wider community.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

We have smoke free signs for our venues in both Te Reo and in English, and do not allow smoking on any of our activities (including by parents who are simply watching).
All catering done at our camps is to support healthy choices and maximise energy/health for activity. The youth are engaged in working with the menus to reinforce this messaging.
We actively participate in and lead various community initiatives to clean up the local waterways (cleaning rubbish and river side planting and have various community awards to recognise this).
Our programme of water based activity (rowing, sailing, swimming, canoeing etc) are all obvious examples of encouraging movement and fitness.

This is a 40% contribution to the total project cost (40 helmets of an anticipated 100 required). This initial purchase is to enable us to get a minimum number of helmets in time for this years Winter Sailing series before we consider our approach for securing more for the wider Group activities.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

This is for an initial purchase of 40 helmets and the initial purchase will be limited to maximising the number of helmets that can be secured from this funding round.
As per our plan we shall then consider other funders and local fundraising options to cover any balance up to 100 helmets.

Project: Supporting the youth of Whau in a COVID world

Location:

Youthline House, 13 Maidstone St, Grey Lynn, Auckland

Summary:

We are requesting $3,000 as a contribution to the annual cost of $118,560 for programme resources used in programmes facilitated by the Youthline Auckland youth worker team and clinical supervision for our counsellors in support of vulnerable youth in the Whau  area.
Our youth workers need programme resources that will enable the young people we work with to participate in a range of activities supporting their social and personal development (including sport, academia, employment and arts).
Many of the young people we work with require face-to-face counselling and both our youth workers and counsellors require clinical supervision on a fortnightly basis.
Last year we supported an estimated 1,813 young people from the Whau area with development programmes, mentoring and counselling.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Many of the young people we work with are disadvantaged and often feel lonely, alone, disengaged and desperate with a reduced sense of belonging to family, school or community. Many often don’t have the economic means to house, feed and clothe themselves. Many have serious health issues.
Our youth workers and counsellors work with young people as they transition to adulthood. 
Adolescence can be a stressful time and having a responsible mentor/counsellor walking beside them can have a significant positive impact on a young person who is struggling to cope with the stresses and strains of daily life. 
Now, a year after the first lockdown, the stress and anxiety that young people felt as a result of COVID-19 remains for many as an underlying condition and will require great care as we work with our rangatahi going forward. We expect the need for our service will continue this nice at this heightened level.
The counselling and programmes, with appropriate resources, that we offer these vulnerable young people provide support, guidance, direction and motivation. These development opportunities encourage them to become positive contributors and leaders in their community – a real benefit to themselves, friends, whanau and the community at large.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Our children and young people are supported to learn and be active

 

Youthline is well known as “the number one place for young people to reach out to for support” with 24% of young people contacting us for support. 71% of young people are aware of Youthline alone (Colmar Brunton 2019). We have been supporting young people and working with communities for over 50 years. We are a “with youth, for youth” organisation and the first point of contact for many young people accessing youth development and support services across Aotearoa New Zealand. We are a respected and trusted frontline service that has changed the lives of many people who have reached out in their time of need. 
The Youthline Helpline is at the heart of our mahi. Young people in need who contact us  through our Helpline often feel lonely, alone, disengaged and desperate. They often have a reduced sense of belonging to family, school or community.
We aim to ensure that the young people we work with have clear pathways from school to work. And we aim to engender a sense of belonging to their family, school and the community in which they live. In supporting these young people Youthline is very much committed to promoting healthy, safe, sustainable and active lifestyles.
COVID-19 has had a profound affect on the youth of Aotearoa. There has never been a more important time to create a sense of belonging, connection and community. 
The pandemic has increased the demand for our services to a significant degree and placed additional pressure on our already stretched resources. 
Further, just as the pandemic itself has been described as having a long tail, we know from research and experience that the pandemic will have a long mental health tail and the ongoing need for counselling services will also have long tail. And while going down levels represents a reduction in restrictions, the negative economic and social conditions of the pandemic will impact for the foreseeable future.
In a 2020 Youthline online survey with 975 young people and their families, more than 72% of respondents shared that that COVID-19 and lockdown have impacted their mental health with young people under 25 more likely to share this than older groups.
Youthline supports these young people, acknowledges their issues and is inclusive with a strengths-based, person-centred approach. We very much aim to build engagement and resiliency for young people and and support them in transitioning to adulthood.  
Youthline services equip youth with skills and insights on how to build self-esteem and improve mental-health, how to actively problem-solve, recover from setbacks and build resilience. Counsellors link them with local support services to assist their ongoing development. Through their improved emotional and self-management skills young people are less likely to fall into helplessness, depression, addictive behaviours, dangerous relationships and unemployment. 
Our experienced youth worker teams provide individual support, mentoring, development and leadership opportunities to vulnerable youth throughout the Auckland region.
For many, connecting with Youthline provides a pathway to a range of personal development and life skills programmes offered by our team including personal development, job skills (e.g. barista training, CV writing and job applications) and learner licence training. All designed to better equip young people to be healthy and active and productive members of their communities.
Research shows that when young people are engaged in community activities, linked with whanau, and given the opportunity to participate feel that they are part of something and encouraged to reach their potential, that risk taking behaviour is reduced.  Youthline works inclusively with youth, from those young people who are most vulnerable to youth leaders who are championing change.
Our clinical support workers counsel/mentor young people identified as needing one-on-one support to encourage and inspire them.  They aim to understand the strengths and weaknesses of each young person, then identify goals and milestones and develop a plan for successful implementation and progression. By walking beside a young person and providing positive role models Youthline aims to see every young person become a positive contributor to society with a strong sense of belonging.
In terms of our services going forward we know that:
1.  There will continue to be a high demand for support coloured by the impact of COVID-19.
2.  We will need to maintain volunteer numbers at as higher a level as possible to cope  with the demand and increased complexity 
3.  The need for comprehensive training and triage support for our volunteers will be paramount
4.   Our youth worker teams will continue to have a large number of vulnerable young people to work with requiring significant levels of programme resources.
5.  Our volunteer and face-to-face counsellors will have a high need for supervision that in particular acknowledges the unique stresses and strains engendered by the pandemic

Under COVID many of our funders have a reduced capacity to provide funding. At a time when young people need our service more than ever we are hugely dependent on those organisations who can provide funding.

Discovering and appreciating more of our local reserves.
Being active together regardless of age or ability there will be something for everyone in a
fun environment encouraging each other
Promotes and activates community engagement

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

More people are more active more often

 

Family Sports Day at Harmel Reserve began 2 years ago. It was a great success
with the encouragement and help from our community and local gym. Glendene has several
great reserves that are not often used by our residents. In line with our strategy to create
opportunities to be active, we know doing things together is better.
This year we want to do be active together more often outside during Spring & Summer.
Zumba for Reserves is a monthly initiative for Spring & Summer at different suitable reserves in Glendene.  Promoting our water only policy and providing fruit for snacks encourages healthy options. It is a fun day where most
people don't even realise how active they have been throughout the afternoon as they have
enjoyed being together

Project: Blue Light Rainbows End Funday

Location:

Rainbows End Fun Park, 2 Clist Crescent, Manukau, Auckland

Summary:

Blue Light’s Fundays enables a mix of disadvantaged and at-risk young people and young people who are in service and leadership roles in their community or school (road patrollers, peer mediators and school counsellors) to build positive supportive relationships while enjoying activities at Rainbow’s End - Auckland’s iconic Theme Park.
Blue Light removes the barriers of participation (transport, cost, supervision, food) for the young people to attend and creates the opportunity for police, Blue Light volunteers, young people, and their whanau from across Auckland's diverse and distinctive communities to interact in a fun, interactive environment. Fundays enables youth leaders to develop natural mentoring and supportive relationships with at-risk youth and positive relationships between Police, young people, their whanau, and community

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The benefits of Blue Light’s Rainbows End event are that it:
•           creates an opportunity for different sectors of both the Whau community and the combined Auckland and surrounding areas to interact and engage together in a fun, positive and iconic Auckland recreational activity.
•           Removes the barriers (transport, cost, supervision) that exist for at-risk and disadvantaged youth in the Whau community from attending an iconic Auckland recreational activity
•           Builds positive relationships between the police and youth, their whanau and community, removing any existing stereotypes that may exist
•           Connects student leaders with at-risk and disadvantaged youth allowing for pro-social mentoring relationships to develop both at the event and post event.
•           Enables supportive, positive social interactions between young people – key to building mental health resilience in our communities

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Our towns and neighbourhood communities are stronger

 

For the past 26+ years Blue Light’s Rainbows End Fun Days have successfully brought over 2,000 young people together from across Auckland’s diverse and distinct communities and youth from as far away as Whangarei. By removing the barriers of participation (entry fee, transport, supervision, and food) youth who can attend the Fundays are a mix of at-risk young people as well as young people providing leadership and service to their primary or intermediate school through roles such as road patrollers, peer mediators and school counsellors. Outside of families, young people are most influenced by their peers and this event allows youth leaders to develop natural mentoring relationships by engaging and interacting with at-risk youth in fun, playful activities.

Requesting grant for:

Rainbows End entry tickets for 78 disadvantaged and at-risk youth and youth participating in leadership roles from primary and intermediate schools in the Whau local board area.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

The event will go ahead, however the number of disadvantaged and at-risk youth, and the youth in leadership positions at schools would be dramatically decreased. This constrains the outcomes and benefits the event can provide.

Location:

Unit H, 44H Portage road, New Lynn

Summary:

Generation Kai offers heavily discounted fresh food bags to clients with community services cards, offering targeted support to those in our community who are working towards independence but are still facing financial strain. We will purchase in bulk directly from suppliers/growers and therefore be able to offer jigh quality goods at a significantly cheaper rate. We plan to begin with fresh, seasonal fruits & vegetables and then eventually look towards moving to a 'staples' box, 'hygiene/cleaning' box, 'kids lunch' box etc - the options are endless!

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Over the last 6 years of operating the Generation Ignite foodbank we've noticed a lot of the same clients coming through weekly, who are also using the other great local food banks in our region, and from what we've observed are in a place of dependence. With this new model and change in approach, we feel like we will be able to offer support to another group of people in our community who need extra assistance. e.g. the local solo mum who is studying fulltime and working, but still struggling to put quality food on the table. These clients aren't typically visiting foodbanks, but are buying 'fillers' like white bread and noodles to feed their whānau, as this is the kai accessible on their budget. With this project. they'll be able to access fresh, nutritious, high-quality food - at a rate that they can afford.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Our most in need have a place to go for help

 

Our project provides relief and support for people under financial strain and are threatened with food insecurity, and are unable to access quality, nutritious foods at a rate that is affordable for them. For this project, we are specifically identifying this target group as those who have a current community services card.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori led - either a Māori organisation that is applying or Māori directed (came about as a request from Māori), Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

The seed idea for this project actually came from a conversation with someone from Te Puni Kōkiri who challenged us to think differently about how we were operating and suggested a 'co-op model' instead.
There is an assumption we will have a high level of Māori participation, as under our foodbank model, we had a high percentage (close to majority) of Māori accessing our service.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Ordering is done online or over the phone, and our physical space for pick-up is wheelchair accessible.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice

We will offer the opportunity to bring their own bags and pack them, for a further discounted rate.
We will only be offering good quality, healthy, nutritious foods.

Financial information

Requesting grant for:

Funding to cover some of the costs of new shelving and a custom-built bench.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We will continue to seek funding and where we can, continue to use profits from our personal businesses to pour into this community initaitive - this will just considerably slow down the project.

Cost of participation:

Project: 'Forgot Your Soap" grab bags

Location:

Avondale, New Lynn and Blockhouse Bay, Green Bay

Summary:

A new project has grown out of  Waiatarau Acute Mental Health Facility in Henderson where volunteers with lived experience of Mental Health distress donated Christmas presents, then gifted toiletries to those forgotten to pack them, or had none in the first place;..
Expanded to community Group Homes for residents with Mental Health issues.
 
 A new challenge has been identified in the Whau Local Board area where many Boarding Houses historically have Corrections contracts for ex offenders, or residents with addictions.  Arriving with bare essentials  raised concerns around  self-care, self-esteem .If admitted into an inpatient facility or on Remand,  the local resident receiving a 'Forgot Your Soap' grab bag will be still be entitled to one, keeping that connection going..

 5. Most importantly are the benefits of quality toiletries which includes large shampoo/conditioner, deodorant, shaving set, comb, tooth paste and tooth brush and breath freshener, face cloth, sanitizer, shower lotion, pad and pen, and a gift such as socks, hand made face mask..

Identified community outcomes:

 

We have fencing around the property to make the entire garden safe for visitors. At present the section of fencing we are seeking a grant for is not safe. It could fall down either into the garden or onto the neighbour. If it should fall it could create a Health and safety issue, which we are trying to prevent.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Whau has a network of great community buildings, sports fields and parks

 

West Lynn Garden is unique to the area in that it is the only garden open to the public seven days a week. There is a large number of trees and shrubs to enjoy as well as space for public to enjoy a picnic. There is also a Monarch Butterfly House where school groups as well as the general public can learn about the life cycle of the butterfly and see a good number of butterflies in season between November and May. It has become a gathering place for mums and toddlers as well as families to have a picnic.

We are proposing to address the area of resettlement, integration, retention, community well-being, supporting vulnerable, supporting volunteers and social cohesion between Congolese and the rest of New Zealand. 
These projects will largely address community participation, cultural awareness and help our youth to gain knowledge of their rights and be innovative; and different ethnic communities will get to know and understand us. 
We are also expecting that our Community will come to know better their Whau Local area and participate to its development. 
It is also expected to meet community Empowerment, Awareness and achieve a successful integration of African Kiwi in all aspect of the New Zealand society especial here in Whau area.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Celebrate our diverse communities and their heritages

 

1. Congolese Independence Day Celebration 2021: The Independence Day means a lot to former refugee and migrant communities. It is a time to commemorate and celebrate our unity and peace while in New Zealand. It is a time to think and reflect on what our ancestors went through in order to free our homeland. It is a time of proud for us living here in New Zealand to have a sense of belonging, celebrate and share with New Zealand the rich and diverse cultures that we have and which make us special and unique. It is also an opportunity for us to share this history with our children born and growing up here in Aotearoa for them not to forget their roots. This event attracts every year about 250+ participants and it will be the Celebration of our 61st Anniversary.
2. Bridging the Inter-generational gap of Culture, Traditions and Customs between Adults and young African-Kiwi Workshop: This is where we are starting having conversation between parents and young people in order to share our values and acknowledge the pride of being what we are. Our children are telling us that they are feeling trapped between two cultures and for the majority of them they do not feel being well understood by their parents and adults in the community, people who grew only under our own culture. This is an interactive workshop between our youths and adults to start a positive conversation about our culture; celebrate and embrace our culture, finding ways to pass it on to our children and most importantly understand challenges that our youths are facing and support them better. This workshop will also address family violence within our community and create a chain of support for those struggling.

Feedback on Equity of Service Levels and Funding Proposals - Draft Report

File No.: CP2021/07938

 

  

 

Te take mō te pūrongo

Purpose of the report

1.       To provide local board feedback to the Joint Governance Working Party on the funding and decision-making proposals set out in the Equity of Service Levels and FundingDraft Report.

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

2.       The local board has received and discussed the Equity of Service Levels and Funding - Draft Report at its April/May 2021 workshop.

3.       The Draft Report (refer Attachment A) sets out the draft recommendations from the Joint Governance Working Party in relation to:

·    improving the equity of funding allocation across local boards

·    increasing the decision-making responsibility of local boards

·    establishing minimum service levels

·    implications of multi-board services.

4.       The Joint Governance Working Party seeks local board feedback on these proposals to consider in the preparation of a final set of proposals to be reported to the Governing Body.

5.       The local board’s feedback on these proposals (refer Attachment B) has been prepared on the template provided.

 

Ngā tūtohunga

Recommendation/s

That the Whau Local Board:

a)      provide feedback using the attached template (Attachment B) to the Joint Governance Working Party on the funding and decision-making proposals set out in the Equity of Service Levels and Funding Proposals – Draft Report.

 

Horopaki

Context

6.       In October and November 2020 workshops, local boards considered and provided input on the Equity of Service Levels and Funding Discussion paper which presented options, in respect of local community services, to:

·        increase local board decision making responsibility

·        increase equity of funding allocation between local boards

·        establish minimum service levels where required

·        address funding of multi-board services and decision-making on their service levels.

7.       The Joint Governance Working Party considered this local board input and provided direction to staff in the preparation of the funding and decision-making proposals of the Equity of Service Levels and Funding Draft Report (refer Attachment A).

8.       Staff presented the Draft Report to local boards in workshops between 6 April and 6 May 2021.

9.       The purpose of this report is to enable the local board to provide formal feedback on the draft recommendations which propose:

·        changes to local board decision-making responsibilities over local community services

·        implementation of an equity-based funding allocation approach for local community services.

10.     These matters will be reported to the Joint Governance Working Party and then to the Governing Body later this year. If adopted, public consultation would be undertaken with the aim of implementing decisions progressively between 2022 and 2024.

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu

Analysis and advice

11.     These proposals (refer Attachment A) are significant changes. If adopted by the Governing Body, these recommendations would:

·        increase local board decision-making responsibilities over community services

·        change the allocation of Asset Based Services (ABS) funding to local boards

·        require collaboration between local boards on some multi-board service decisions

·        have a high community interest

·        not affect existing local board responsibility for Local Discretionary Initiatives (LDI) service decisions or the current LDI funding approach.

12.     Feedback on these proposals is sought from the local board to assist the Joint Governance Working Party in providing direction to staff and the Governing Body on progressing these proposals.

13.     The Working Party’s final report to the Governing Body will also update illustrative funding outcomes with asset values and ABS budgets updated and adopted under Long-term Plan 2021-31. Funding outcomes remain illustrative until funding model and financial inputs are adopted, planned for Long-term Plan 2024-34.

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi

Climate impact statement

14.     Providing feedback on the draft report does not have a direct impact on climate change.

15.     Changes made to local community services as a result of the proposed policy may have a climate impact and will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

16.     If adopted, the proposed policy will impact on several divisions of the council including Customer and Community Services, Finance and Governance. Staff from these divisions have been involved in the development of these proposals.

17.     Staff from these divisions will also be significantly involved in the implementation of Governing Body decisions on the proposals. A critical implementation workstream will ensure staff have the capacity and the knowledge required to enable sound advice to be provided to local boards under these proposals.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

18.     Over time, these proposals have the potential to fundamentally change local community service delivery depending on the extent to which local boards and their communities make changes.

19.     Local boards have discussed policy options in workshops in October and November 2021 and considered the proposed policy in workshops in April and May 2021. Local boards can also provide their input and views through their representatives on the Joint Governance Working Party.

20.     This report provides the opportunity for local boards to provide their formal feedback on the Draft Report proposals.

21.     More detailed discussion of the local implications of the policy proposal is included in the Draft Report, provided as Attachment A.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

22.     As part of increased decision-making for asset-based services, and under local government legislation, local boards must demonstrate how Māori are involved, and their needs are reflected, in these decisions. This means that in making service decisions, local boards should be able to:

·        demonstrate effective Māori involvement in the local board planning processes

·        clearly articulate Māori priorities in local board funding and delivery of asset-based services.

23.     It is likely that these changes will result in more responsive services for Māori communities at the local level.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

24.     Introduction of the proposed policy would have several significant financial impacts, including:

·        changes to local board funding allocations that may result in funding increases for some local boards and funding decreases for others

·        broader local board decision-making responsibilities that will require greater flexibility in how local boards allocate their funding to service delivery

·        local board decisions which would include service impacts on assets, such as investment, enhancement, renewal, optimisation and removal from service.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

25.     Development of the proposed policy involved several workshops with each local board. Several local boards requested additional workshops on the proposals as their implications became better understood.

26.     A range of risks associated with approval and implementation of these proposals were discussed during workshops and considered in the development of these proposals, including:

·        whether there will be sufficient understanding of the proposals and support for their benefits to enable them to be adopted

·        what alternative approaches might address the issues these proposals seek to address, should they not proceed

·        developing alternative funding equity transition options including implications on local board funding and overall timing

·        developing options to respond to concerns of local boards which might be adversely affected by equity funding proposals

·        addressing local board concerns for the perceived downside of greater decision-making responsibility if the level of decision support does not increase

·        ensuring the organisation is structured, resourced and adequately supported to provide the quality service advice needed by local boards to make well-informed decisions.

27.     Plans are either in place or currently being developed to address these risks. The proposed two stage implementation timeline (see below) is designed to progressively grow the council capability, develop robust processes, and ensure effective and transparent management of necessary changes.

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

28.     Staff will report local board feedback to the Joint Governance Working Party which will consider this feedback, along with further staff advice, and provide its recommendations to the Governing Body later this year.

29.     The Governing Body would undertake public consultation on its draft decisions as follows:

·        under the Annual Plan 2022/23, in the case of changes to the Allocation of Decision-making Responsibilities policy

·        under the Long-term Plan 2024-2034, in the case of changes to the Local Board Funding policy.

30.     Proposals adopted by the Governing Body would be progressively implemented from 2022 to 2024.

Delegation of feedback to be provided to the Establishment Unit Board of the City Centre to Māngere light rail project

File No.: CP2021/07941

 

  

 

Te take mō te pūrongo

Purpose of the report

1.       To formally delegate one local board member to provide feedback to the Establishment Unit Board of the City Centre to Māngere light rail project.

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

2.       An Establishment Unit is being set up by the Cabinet to provide the public face of the City Centre to Māngere light rail project, undertake stakeholder and community engagement, and take forward work to resolve key outstanding questions in relation to project scope and delivery. A key output of the unit will be to develop a business case over approximately six months which looks at the available options.

3.       The work of the Establishment Unit will be guided by an inclusive governance structure made up of representatives of central and local government, Treaty partners and an independent chairperson.

4.       Minister of Transport Hon Michael Wood wrote to local board members in May 2021 inviting local board members to select a single representative to be appointed to the Establishment Unit Board. At the May 2021 Chairs’ Forum, Margi Watson was selected for this role.

5.       The Establishment Unit now has until early September 2021 to gather the views of local boards, ward councillors, and the public.

6.       Staff are requesting that local boards delegate a member to provide feedback on behalf of the local board, to ensure that feedback can be provided in a short timeframe after public feedback has been collated and provided to the local board.

Ngā tūtohunga

Recommendation/s

That the Whau Local Board:

a)      delegate one local board member to provide feedback on behalf of the local board to the Establishment Unit Board of the City Centre to Māngere light rail project.

 

Horopaki

Context

7.       In March 2021, the Cabinet met to agree how to progress the next steps for the City Centre to Māngere light rail project (CC2M).

8.       To give effect to this, the Cabinet has directed that an Establishment Unit be set up to provide the public face of the project, undertake stakeholder and community engagement, and take forward work to resolve key outstanding questions in relation to project scope and delivery entity.

9.       The Establishment Unit Board will be chaired by an independent chair appointed by the Minister of Transport and the Minister of Finance. Membership will comprise:

·        a single representative (the chief executive or a senior delegate) from Auckland Council, Auckland Transport, Waka Kotahi, Kāinga Ora and the Ministry of Transport

·        a representative from mana whenua

·        a representative of Auckland Council’s local boards (Margi Watson)

·        a representative of Auckland Council’s Governing Body (Chris Darby)

·        Te Waihanga (the New Zealand Infrastructure Commission) and Treasury will support the work of the Establishment Unit Board as observers.

10.     A key output of the unit will be to develop a business case over approximately six months which looks at the available options. This will enable quality decisions on key matters based on evidence, such as mode, route alignment and delivery.

11.     The Mayor and Deputy Mayor have been invited to join Minister of Transport Hon Michael Wood and Minister of Finance Hon Grant Robertson as sponsors of this project. This sponsors group will play an important function in ensuring political alignment on the project between central and local government and setting strategic direction.

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu

Analysis and advice

12.     The Auckland Light Rail team will be engaging with local boards first so that local board members are clear about the scope and programme of engagement.

13.     This will take place as follows:

·        11 June: briefing the six local boards that are within the planned corridor for light rail - Waitematā, Albert-Eden, Puketāpapa, Maungakiekie-Tāmaki, Māngere-Ōtāhuhu and Ōtara-Papatoetoe

·        14 June: presentation to Chairs’ Forum

·        30 June: inviting local board Chairs or their delegate to attend a Planning Committee briefing

·        Further briefings will be organised to take place after the public consultation period in July/ August 2021.

14.     Staff will focus on providing local board members with an understanding of the approach being taken by the Establishment Unit and key constraints, so that local board members can respond to any queries they received and champion the engagement process within their community.

15.     Throughout the engagement period, the Establishment Unit will be seeking broad views, key themes (could be geographically based) and feedback on the outcomes the project is set to achieve. This will mirror the public engagement process that will also focus on outcomes and community experience.

16.     In order to ensure that there is adequate time for local boards to review public feedback ahead of providing local board feedback, staff are recommending that local boards delegate a member to provide the local board’s feedback

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi

Climate impact statement

17.     Delegating to one local board member the authority to provide feedback to the Establishment Unit Board of the City Centre to Māngere light rail project does not have any quantifiable climate impacts.

18.     The Establishment Unit Board will have an opportunity to consider climate impacts as part of making recommendations on the project.

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

19.     The Mayor and Deputy Mayor have been invited to join the Minister of Transport Hon Michael Wood and Minister of Finance Hon Grant Robertson as sponsors of the project. The project sponsors will set the strategic direction for the project, including the project scope and engagement plans, and maintain political cooperation between central government and Auckland Council with regards to the project.

20.     The Governing Body representative and the local board representative will be joined by the Chief Executive as the representatives of Auckland Council on the Establishment Unit Board.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

21.     This delegation will provide the opportunity for all local boards to provide formal feedback to the Establishment Unit Board within the given timeframe of this first stage of work.

22.     Margi Watson, as the local board representative on the Establishment Unit Board, will develop good lines of communication with other local board members. Having a local board representative on the Establishment Unit Board is not a proxy for local board engagement on this project and does not replace the need to obtain feedback from local boards.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

23.     The work of the Establishment Unit will be guided by an inclusive governance structure made up of representatives of central and local government, Treaty Partners and an independent chairperson.

24.     A key function of the Establishment Unit will be to undertake high quality engagement with communities, stakeholders, mana whenua and mataawaka.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

25.     Delegating to one local board member the authority to provide feedback to the Establishment Unit Board of the City Centre to Māngere light rail project does not have any financial implications.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

26.     No risks have been identified for delegating to one local board member the authority to provide feedback to the Establishment Unit Board of the City Centre to Māngere light rail project.

27.     The risks of not appointing a delegate may be that formal feedback is not able to be provided by the local board within the relevant timeframe or may need to be provided via the urgent decision mechanism.

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

28.     Staff will work with the Establishment Unit to make arrangements for local board briefings ahead of public consultation.

29.     Public consultation will take place in July and August 2021.

30.     Further briefings to provide analysis of the public feedback received will be provided towards the end of August 2021.

31.     Delegated local board members will provide feedback on behalf of their local board by 2 September 2021.

Ngā tūtohunga

Recommendation/s

That the Whau Local Board:

a)      receive the Eke Panuku Development Auckland - Whau Local Board Six-Monthly Report to 31 March 2021.

 

Horopaki

Context

10.     Eke Panuku Development Auckland is the council-controlled organisation that delivers urban regeneration in Tāmaki Makaurau (Auckland). Urban regeneration is the planning of neighbourhoods and the improvement of buildings and spaces to strengthen communities and the economy to make it an even better place to live.

11.     Our city is facing rapid growth. Quality development is required to accommodate this growth and to ensure people love and can afford to live in Auckland. We imagine a city of strong neighbourhoods. We work across many neighbourhoods throughout our city from large, long-term urban regeneration plans to small projects on specific sites to meet the needs of the city’s long-term growth - including more types of homes people can afford. We work alongside the locals, other parts of the council and businesses to regenerate our city in ways that benefit both our local communities and Auckland as a whole.

12.     We deliver returns for the council, and at the same time, we ensure our assets contribute positively to the neighbourhoods of Tāmaki Makaurau. We manage around $2.4 billion of land and buildings owned by the Auckland Council.

13.     In the period 1 September 2020 to 31 March 2021, we continued our urban regeneration programme across the region, brought a $22.8 million return to the council via property management, purchased six properties on behalf of the group, and sold nine properties as part of either our neighbourhood regeneration or as directed by Auckland Council.

Urban regeneration – Whau Local Board area

Unlock Avondale

14.     The vision for Unlock Avondale is to build on Avondale’s great accessibility, train station, schools and community to create a strong, vibrant centre where the growing population wants to live, work and play.

15.     Significant delivery of new homes is expected within Avondale as part of the Unlock Avondale programme. There is an ongoing engagement in Avondale in the preparation of several projects which enable and support this intensification. This includes combined open day sessions with Kāinga Ora Homes and Communities, a stall at the Avondale Christmas festival and the Neighbours Day.

Avondale library and community hub

16.     Architectural design contracts for the new Avondale library and community hub were awarded in October 2020 to Athfield Architects (for the building component) and Isthmus Group (for the enhancements to the town square and Avondale Central Reserve). The architectural designers have been refining a concept plan in preparation for public consultation from 19 April to 17 May 2021. Community engagement on both the facility and outside spaces is being led by Eke Panuku with support from the council with four drop-in sessions scheduled.

Crayford Street upgrade

17.     Eke Panuku continue to negotiate on the undergrounding timing and cost negotiations with Vector and Chorus to enable this project to progress. Vector works are scheduled to commence by mid-2021.

Placemaking

18.     Placemaking is a process that fosters the creation of vital public spaces. At Eke Panuku this is done through:

·      Supporting communities through ongoing change taking place

·      Building trust and knowledge through relationships to ensure that regeneration fits with the characteristics of a place

·      Develop an iterative, ‘do-learn-do’ process to inform, test, and foreshadow future design

·      Foster reciprocal relationships between place and people

·      Capacity-building towards socio-economic regeneration through sustainable procurement and regenerative economics.

19.     Placemaking activations for Unlock Avondale:

·    Pump Track – Returned to Avondale in October 2020 for a two-month period before moving onto to its location in Henderson

·      The Pavilion – This temporary modular structure focusses on bringing another vibrant dimension to the Avondale Central site, with the intention of signalling future urban regeneration and change is coming. This project is a partnership between Eke Panuku, Unitec School of Architecture and a group of six renowned graffiti street artists. Each month up until July the pavilion will be repainted by one of the six artists

·      Crescendo Trust – The trust is a community organisation looking to support youth development through music. Eke Panuku has enabled the trust to lease one of council’s properties to use as a studio. The trust opened its studio on 15 October 2020 and has been well received by the community

·      Phantom poster frames to showcase Avondale’s unique identity, sponsored by Eke Panuku have been erected on the fences at Great North Road. Content is generated monthly by members of the community. Recent posters included Awa Stories, as part of Eco West Fest and current posters include images developed with the Avondale Business Association such as a set of aerial photographs of Avondale.

Development programme (supports category)

20.     Eke Panuku supports urban regeneration projects around the region by seeking outcomes on surplus council land. These sites deliver new homes, quality design and urban regeneration outcomes.

21.     83B Godley Road, Green BayThe subdivision of this site was completed by September 2020 and all 13 titles issued. House construction is progressing well, with construction scheduled for completion in December 2022.

22.     10 Ambrico Place, New LynnSubdivision has been completed and the title for the rear site of approximately 1300m2 is expected later in 2021. The section has land use and subdivision consent for ten homes. The property will be taken to market once Healthy Waters complete the Clinker infrastructure project work, which is to include the installation of a large stormwater pipe diagonally through the site.

23.     OAGs New Lynn Eke Panuku was in exclusive discussions with a development partner about the revitalisation of the Totara Avenue sites in New Lynn. The negotiation period has now expired which means we will take the site back to the market. The vision for this is still a mixed-use development that will retain the OAGs façade in its design and include new residential apartments. We are now preparing to take this site to the market.

Haumaru

24.     81A Godley Road - This project is a partnership between the council, Haumaru and the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development (MHUD) for the construction of 40 one-bedroom units specifically designed to house people, 65 years of age and older. The units would all be designed for accessibility and to a minimum Homestar 6 standard. This would deliver a net gain of 40 new units in the Whau Local Board area. Haumaru is currently in negotiations with MHUD about a services agreement. Design work has started targeting a pre-application meeting with council in June to seek feedback.

Property management and properties of Whau Local Board interest

25.     Eke Panuku manages 14 leases in the Whau Local Board area. These have contributed a $386,624 annual return to Auckland Council.

Acquisitions

26.     Eke Panuku has purchased no properties on behalf of Auckland Council departments in the Whau Local Board Area during the reporting period 1 September 2020 to 31 March 2021.

Disposals

27.     On behalf of the Auckland Council, Eke Panuku sells properties that are no longer required by the Auckland Council group for service use.

28.     The decision to sell these properties is made by Auckland Council’s Governing Body with advice from its finance team.

29.     Eke Panuku does not have a decision-making role in the sale of properties that are surplus to the council’s requirements.

30.     The role of Eke Panuku is to provide property transaction services. Proceeds from these sales are returned to Auckland Council to be reinvested in council services.

31.     Work is underway on the following properties which have been approved for sale in principle by the Finance and Performance Committee:

The Parks, Arts, Community and Events (PACE) Committee will consider the reserve revocation and if the Committee resolves to revoke the reserve status the decision will then refer to the Department of Conservation for final approval.

Climate impact statement

33.     The Eke Panuku priority location programmes support the regeneration of existing town centres while also addressing climate mitigation and adaptation.

34.     Mitigation of climate change involves reducing the carbon emissions that contribute to climate change. Our priority locations are transport-oriented communities that utilise existing infrastructure and transport links and we seek to make local walking and cycling safe and viable alternatives to the private vehicle. Eke Panuku has also adopted a Homestar-6 minimum standard to ensure we can reduce energy, water and landfill waste. We are working to adopt similar standards for our public realm and commercial developments, whilst also taking guidance from precinct sustainability rating tools like Green Star Communities.

35.     Adaptation to climate change involves planning for the changes to our climate and associated impacts that are already happening or are projected to happen, including sea-level rise, hotter temperatures, extreme weather events, flooding and droughts. Climate change is likely to subject the Whau Local Board area to hotter temperatures and more frequent flooding and drought. Eke Panuku seeks to future-proof our communities by:

·      Specifying that infrastructure and developments are designed to cope with warmer temperatures and extreme weather events

·      The use of green infrastructure and water sensitive design to increase flood resilience and provide ecological and biodiversity benefits

·      The provision of increased shade and shelter for storm events and hotter days

·      Initiatives to build community resilience.

36.     In October, the Eke Panuku executive team agreed to a work programme of priority actions to help Eke Panuku deliver on the council’s sustainable procurement objectives which Eke Panuku has adopted. Targeting these objectives will help further leverage the economic, social and environmental benefits of Eke Panuku urban regeneration projects and the products and services we procure as a business. Implementation of these priority projects has commenced which focus on embedding sustainable procurement into Eke Panuku procurement processes and systems, including the inclusion of climate considerations into procurements for capital works and renewals.

37.     The Eke Panuku Climate Change Strategy was adopted by the Eke Panuku Board in November 2020. The strategy guides how Eke Panuku will support the implementation of Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland's Climate Plan.

Council group impacts and views

38.     Eke Panuku cannot achieve its vision alone. Our complex operating environment means we need the expertise of others. Therefore, building and maintaining strong relationships and partnerships and working together with others in general is an ongoing focus for us.

39.     Eke Panuku Development Auckland works collaboratively with other Auckland Council departments, CCOs and Crown agencies to deliver joined-up urban regeneration in our neighbourhoods.

40.     Impacts and views are considered both on a programme and project level for the neighbourhoods we work in to maximise community outcomes.

41.     Any local or sub-regional impacts are considered on a programme and project basis.

42.     Eke Panuku regularly engages with local boards on its projects and programmes within local board areas.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

43.     Eke Panuku supports the aspirations described in the Auckland Plan 2050.

44.     Eke Panuku has worked closely with our mana whēnua partners to understand their priorities in Tāmaki Makaurau. Mana whēnua have shared their top five aspirations with Eke Panuku. Below is a summary:

·      Governance: We involve mana whēnua in transparent decision-making

·      Culture: We will increase our practice of kaitiakitanga (by all) and increase the visibility of Māori identity and culture in our projects

·      Economic: We will create more commercial investment, procurement, and engagement opportunities for Māori

·      Social: We will foster a sense of community and connectedness and help enhance the well-being of Māori here in Tāmaki Makaurau

·      Natural environment: We will work together to ensure we are working towards significant improvements to te mauri o te taiao.

45.     Eke Panuku continues to make progress on the Eke Panuku Mana Whenua Outcomes Framework actions and presented a six-month status report to mana whēnua in February 2021.

46.     Eke Panuku has achieved 36/40 significant initiatives in the 2020/2021 financial year. Highlights include the numerous whakawātea with our mana whenua partners to celebrate significant milestones to build the stage for the 2021 America’s Cup.

47.     Following the Emergency Budget 2020/2021, Eke Panuku is still working with mana whenua to identify potential development and disposal opportunities. Eke Panuku has invited mana whenua to register commercial interests in properties Eke Panuku is preparing to dispose of on the market.

48.     Eke Panuku has started a pilot programme focused on growing the capability of young leaders to enable placemaking activities. The programme, He Pia He Tauira, has hosted several wānanga with tauira to prepare for upcoming activities.
