Public feedback on proposal to make a new Signs Bylaw 2022

 

Resolution number HM/2022/11

MOVED by Member I Papau, seconded by Member B Loader:  

That the Henderson-Massey Local Board:

a)      receive the public feedback on the proposal to make a new Auckland Council and Auckland Transport Ture ā-Rohe mo nga Tohu 2022 / Signs Bylaw 2022 and associated controls in this agenda report.

b)      provide its views on how the Bylaw Panel should address matters raised in public feedback to the proposal in recommendation (a) to assist the Bylaw Panel in its deliberations as follows:

i)     support proposals 1, 2, 3 (with amendment to 3A) 4, 5, 6, 7B, 8, 9, 10, 11B, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16 and oppose proposals 7A and 11A

ii)     do not support proposals 7A or 11A and want to see that regulations for flat wall mounted signs (both real estate and general business signs) in industrial areas stay at the current size. The local board has reviewed public feedback and agree that the proposal to increase the size of wall mounted signs is unnecessary. The local board believe the current size adequately provides for industrial areas and that large signs can create safety risk as they are distracting to drivers, they visually pollute an area, and they promote consumption

iii)    supports proposal 3 ‘Event Signs’ and propose increasing the advertising period from one day to three days for proposal 3A. The local board also support the inclusion of a requirement to remove the advertisement sign the day after the event has occurred.

Public feedback on proposal to amend Stormwater Bylaw 2015

 

Resolution number HM/2022/12

MOVED by Deputy Chairperson B Brady, seconded by Member M Grey:  

That the Henderson-Massey Local Board:

a)      receive the public feedback on the proposal to amend Te Kaunihera o Tāmaki Makaurau Te Ture-ā-rohe Wai Āwhā 2015 / Auckland Council Stormwater Bylaw 2015 in this report.

b)      provide its views on how the Bylaw Panel should address matters raised in public feedback to the proposal in recommendation (a) to assist the Bylaw Panel in its deliberations as follows:

i)       supports the main proposals for the Stormwater Bylaw Statement of Proposal. In particular, the local board supports specifying controls, codes of practice, or guidelines for managing not only the public stormwater network but add a focus on private stormwater systems.

ii)      highlights the continuing issue of cross-contamination of stormwater with sewerage and the infiltration into Te Wai o Pareira (Henderson Creek), particularly in Te Atatu Peninsula and supports this bylaw as one of the tools to help mitigate this major issue of cross-contamination (due in some cases to illegal connections, accidental infiltration and maintenance issues).

iii)     supports any way that this bylaw can help drive the addition/completion of a Western Interceptor to reduce wastewater overflows into west Auckland waterways, noting that currently, wastewater and stormwater flow into a combined network of pipes so following excessive rain, wastewater overflows with stormwater into our creeks and streams.
