Draft proposal to make a new Signs Bylaw

 

Resolution number OP/2021/108

MOVED by Chairperson R Autagavaia, seconded by Deputy Chairperson D Trenberth:  

That the Local Board:

a)         support the draft Statement of Proposal in Attachment A of this agenda report to make a new Auckland Council and Auckland Transport Ture  ā-Rohe mo nga Tohu 2022 / Signs Bylaw 2022 and associated controls for public consultation and further gives the following feedback comments:

          i)             support the overall format and sequence of content as this makes the Signage Bylaw more accessible for general users

         ii)             note that diagrams and graphs in the draft help with readability but recommend use of real pictures of signs for general public to understand the bylaw

       iii)             note the resolutions of the Regulatory Committee requesting that proactive enforcement through the Targeted Initiative team within the Regulatory Compliance Unit be prioritised and for other methods to reduce community exposure to alcohol marketing by off-licence outlets independent of the signage bylaw review be explored (REG/2020/66 and REG/2021/20)

       iv)             note the advice of staff to the Regulatory Committee that restrictions on advertising signage specific to off-licence alcohol outlets cannot be included using the bylaw under current legislation

         v)             support the Governing Body advocating to central government for tighter national restrictions on alcohol marketing, and request local board involvement in any such discussions

       vi)             request the analysis and summary from public consultation, particularly feedback from the Ōtara-Papatoetoe area

      vii)             look forward to the next phase for local board input prior to final decision being made on the Signs Bylaw 2022.
