Resolution
number PKTPP/2022/10
MOVED by Member H Doig, seconded by Chairperson J Fairey:
That
the Puketāpapa Local Board:
a) tūtohi / 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) whakarato
/ provide its views on how the Bylaw Panel should address matters raised in
public feedback to the proposal in clause a)
i)
support P1 Banners and P2A Election signs
ii)
support to P2B Election signs where they are on Reserve
fences but do not agree to the restriction on signs on private fences opposite
reserves
iii)
do not agree to P2C on basis that this is an election and
should be treated the same as other elections albeit the only energy trust
election
iv)
do not agree to P3A Event signs eg garage sales for day of
event only. The Puketāpapa Local Board supports erection of signs
for longer than just day of sale and recommends that the period be seven days
v)
recommend that it be made clear that temporary community
signs (eg lost cat) should not be regulated
vi)
support to P3B, P3C, P4 Free-Standing signs, P5A Portable
signs, P7A Real Estate signs, P7B Real Estate, Signs, P8 Stencils, P9 Vehicle
signs, P10 Verandah signs, P11A Wall-mounted signs, P11B Wall mounted signs,
P12 Window signs, P13 A Major Recreational Facility Zones
vii)
support investigating banning or further regulating
portable signs and bollard sleeves under P5B, in the city centre and
neighbourhood centre zones, to address issues around accessibility, amenity,
and proliferation of advertising in the public realm.
viii)
support investigating banning or further regulating
façade signs under P6 Posters, on premises in neighbourhood centre
zones
ix)
support to P13B and recommend that it be made explicit that
sponsorship signs for community sports clubs do not require a fee for
approval
x)
support to P13C Commercial sexual services, P14A General
(Safety and traffic), P14B General (top of building)
xi)
support P14C General (illuminated signs), but note a
balance needs to be reached to address issues that can arise from
illumination such as distracting road users, impact on nearby residents and
businesses. There should be an expectation that malfunctions are fixed
quickly, as flashing signs can quickly become a hazard for others
xii)
support to P14D General (business that cease trading), P15
Controls and approvals
xiii)
support to P16 and recommend that Council should advocate
for the ability to fine for breaches, in particular for illegal signs where
there is no incentive currently for those who put up the sign to take it down
and so Council ends up wearing the cost of removal and disposal.
There should also be an ability to take into account repeat offences, not just
look at it on an individual sign by sign basis.
xiv)
support prohibiting or regulating the use of exterior
building wraps or vivid building colours for advertising purposes or for
brand extension, in neighbourhood centre zones.
xv)
supporting investigating regulating signage more strictly
in neighbourhood centre zones in particular to allow for consideration of the
visual amenity of these spaces.
c)
whakatuu / appoint Chair J Fairey and
Member B Shen to present the views in clause b) to the Bylaw Panel on 28
March 2022
