Pekapeka Survey Aotea / Great Barrier Island 2021
File No.: CP2022/01490
Te take mō te pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To receive the Autonomous Pekapeka Survey Aotea / Great Barrier Island 2021.
Whakarāpopototanga matua
Executive summary
2. In June 2021 the Aotea / Great Barrier Local Board approved $4,550 funding for the pekapeka survey project (resolution number GBI/2021/73).
3. The pekapeka, also known as the North Island long-tailed bat (Chalinolobus tuberculatus), is presently classified as a “nationally critical” species, which is the highest threat level for native species in New Zealand before extinction. The pekapeka species are estimated to be declining at a rate of 90 per cent over the next three generations.
4. Aotea / Great Barrier Island is a uniquely attractive habitat for the pekapeka due to its Dark Sky Sanctuary accreditation. Roadside lighting has been found to increase prey for bat species and turns them away from their normal commuting route.
5. The pekapeka survey project sought to learn more about the presence and activity of pekapeka on Aotea / Great Barrier Island, and to share this information with the community.
6. An autonomous ultrasonic survey was completed for pekapeka at 42 stations scattered across Aotea / Great Barrier during early summer 2021 by Soundcounts for Auckland Council.
7. Most bat activity (95 per cent) was detected from the Port Fitzroy and Okiwi catchments.
8. Results indicated that
· long tailed bats were roosting within the upper reaches of the Kaiaraara catchment, behind Port Fitzroy.
· the bats were much more active in the north of the island than in the south. It is unlikely that bats were roosting within any of the southern catchments during the period of the survey.
· bats use the road saddle between Fitzroy and Okiwi to commute between the two northern catchments.
9. The survey can be found attached to this report (Attachment A).
10. The project manager from Environmental Services has shared the survey with the community over December 2021 and January – March 2022.
Recommendation/s
That the Aotea / Great Barrier Local Board:
a) receive the Autonomous Pekapeka Survey Aotea / Great Barrier Island 2021.

Horopaki
Context
6. Each local board has agreed an engagement approach with the four CCOs for the 2021-2022 local work programme. Noting that Aotea / Great Barrier Local Board does not have a specific engagement plan with Watercare as there are no Watercare projects on the island.
7. While the local board approves the Joint CCO Engagement Plan each year, it remains a live document and CCOs are encouraged to keep the document up to date.
8. Changes are also proposed by Local Board Services, where improvements can be made to all 21 engagement plans, and to keep information up to date.
9. This report may include the following types of changes:
· Additional work programme items, and proposed engagement level
· Proposed changes to the engagement approach with the local board
· Proposed changes to the extent of community engagement

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi
Climate impact statement
19. Updating the Joint CCO Engagement Plan between the local board and Auckland Council’s substantive Council-Controlled Organisations does not have a direct impact on climate, however the projects it refers to will.
20. Each CCO must work within Te Tāruke-a-Tāwhiri: Auckland's Climate Action Framework and information on climate impacts will be provided to local boards on a project or programme basis.
Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera
Council group impacts and views
21. Approving the updated Joint CCO Engagement Plan 2021-2022 is likely to have a positive impact on other parts of the council as well as between the respective CCOs within each local board area.
22. These plans will be shared with the integration teams that implement local board work programmes and will give council staff greater ongoing visibility of CCO work programmes.
Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe
Local impacts and local board views
23. Local board engagement plans enable local boards to signal to CCOs those projects that are of greatest interest to the local board, and to ensure that engagement between the local board and the four CCOs is focussed on those priority areas.
24. Joint CCO engagement plans also give local boards the opportunity to communicate to CCOs which projects they expect to be of most interest to their communities.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori
Māori impact statement
25. Updating and adopting the Joint CCO Engagement Plan 2021-2022 may have a positive impact on local engagement with mana whenua and mataawaka.
26. While both CCOs and local boards have engagement programmes with Māori, the engagement plan will allow a more cohesive and coordinated approach to engagement, with more advance planning of how different parts of the community will be involved.
Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea
Financial implications
27. The adoption of the Joint CCO Engagement Plan 2021-2022 between the local board and Auckland Council’s substantive Council-Controlled Organisations does not have financial impacts for local boards.
28. Any financial implications or opportunities will be provided to local boards on a project or programme basis.
Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga
Risks and mitigations
29. It is likely that there will be changes made to work programme items in the engagement plan during the year, or to the level of engagement that the board or the community will have. This risk is mitigated by ensuring that the document states clearly that it is subject to change, contains a table recording changes made since it was signed, and will be re-published on the local board agenda quarterly, to ensure public transparency.
Ngā koringa ā-muri
Next steps
30. The local board will receive the next quarterly update for Quarter Three in June 2022.
31. A workshop will be held in April to begin development of a new engagement plan for 2022-23.

Local board input to development of Auckland Transport’s Interim Speed Management Plan
File No.: CP2022/03064
Te take mō te pūrongo
Purpose of the report
1. To seek early local board input to the development of Auckland Transport’s proposed interim Auckland Speed Management Plan.
Whakarāpopototanga matua
Executive summary
2. Central government is committed to speed reductions and the ‘Vision Zero’ road safety policy and is considering implementing regulations that would require the creation of regional speed management plans.
3. Introduction of an interim Speed Management Plan meets the council’s direction to Auckland Transport (AT) to reduce road deaths and serious injuries, and to prepare to meet the proposed central government rules.
4. In December 2021, AT advised all local boards about the development of an interim Auckland Speed Management Plan for the period 2023-26. The plan will create a framework for setting new speed limits and will influence plans for related safety infrastructure across Auckland.
5. Prior to developing the interim Speed Management Plan, AT is seeking input from local boards, specifically to identify a list of roads in each local board area that should be reviewed when staff develop the proposed plan.
6. The interim Speed Management Plan will be in place between 2023 and 2026. During 2023, consultation will begin on the first ten-year plan which is expected to be in place from 2024 to 2034.
Recommendation/s
That the Aotea / Great Barrier Local Board:
a) provide feedback on the introduction of an interim Auckland Speed Management Plan
b) provide a list of roads within the local board area that should be reviewed when staff develop the proposed plan.
Horopaki
Context
7. AT has made speed limit changes covering 11% of the road network, with changes to a further 27% of the road network proposed. Each local board has received information detailing the roads in their area where changes are proposed under the first three phases of the Safe Speeds Programme.
8. The Interim Speed Management Plan will continue this process of expanding Auckland’s network of safer roads.
9. Between March and June 2022, AT will undertake an assessment to consider feedback from elected members, mana whenua, partners and the community against technical considerations related to benefit, cost, and risk. Several checks will then be made, including technical and legal reviews, and funding criteria. This work will inform the options that are presented as part of public consultation, planned to take place in late-2022.
Auckland Council Strategic Alignment
10. Auckland Council is committed to road safety. The Auckland Plan envisages a transport network free of deaths and serious injuries by 2050. AT deliver the council’s policies in relation to transport. AT developed ‘Vision Zero for Tāmaki Makaurau’ in response to goals within the Auckland Plan and with the council’s Planning Committee’s direction. The interim speed management plan is a key contribution to ‘Vision Zero for Tāmaki Makaurau’.
11. The interim Speed Management Plan encourages safer speeds that contribute to ‘Te-Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland’s Climate Plan’ by making roads safer and encouraging greater use of more environmentally friendly transport modes, such as walking and cycling.
Central Government Alignment: Proposed Land Transport Rule on Setting Speed Limits
12. ‘Road to Zero’ is New Zealand’s road safety strategy; infrastructure improvements and speed management are its first focus areas. In 2021, Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency consulted on a proposed new ‘Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2021’.
13. The proposed changes include requirements for local authorities to develop speed management plans and set lower speed limits around schools to improve safety and encourage more children to use active modes of transport.
14. Central government is considering the proposed rule and a decision is expected in the second quarter of 2022. Waka Kotahi is expected to release a new speed management guide at the same time as the new rule, which will include updated safe and appropriate speed limit ranges for our roads and streets. Under the proposed rule, AT is required to consult on speed limit changes in accordance with the Local Government Act 2002.
Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu
Analysis and advice
15. Development of an interim Speed Management Plan is a long process, and this engagement is an early step. AT will engage with the public, other agencies and elected members throughout 2022.
16. The current round of local board consultation started in December 2021. In February and March 2022, AT attended workshops with local boards and is now inviting feedback, specifically about roads or areas where there is community demand for safer speeds.
17. Please note that where roads and schools are already included in conversations taking place within Tranche 2B of the previous speed limits programme, these should not be included in feedback on the interim Speed Management Plan.
18. Feedback from local boards will contribute to the development of a draft Speed Management Plan that AT will consult on in late 2022. Following public consultation, the AT Board will finalise and approve an interim Auckland Speed Management Plan 2023-2026.
19. The role of the local board is not to make technical decisions about speed management, but instead to provide the community’s perspective on local concerns and interests related to speed management.
Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi
Climate impact statement
20. Auckland Transport engages closely with the council to develop strategies, actions, and measures that support the outcomes sought by the Auckland Plan 2050, Te-Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri the Auckland Climate Action Plan, and other council priorities.
21. Auckland Transport’s plays a key role in providing attractive alternatives to private vehicle travel, reducing the carbon footprint of its own operations and, to the extent feasible, that of the contracted public transport network. The primary climate change benefit of safe and appropriate speed limits is that they support and encourage greater take-up of walking, cycling and micro mobility by reducing the risk to vulnerable road users, making these modes safer and more attractive. This supports emissions reductions.
22. Recent surveys of town centres in which speed limits were reduced and safety improvements introduced in the first tranche of Auckland Transport’s speed limit changes demonstrated a link between slower speeds and more people walking or cycling. Surveys found that 19% of local people now participate in at least one ‘active mode’ activity (for example, walking or cycling) more often since the projects have been completed. Increasing the number of people choosing to walk or cycle reduces emissions.
Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera
Council group impacts and views
23. Auckland Transport engages closely with the council on developing strategies, actions, and measures to support the outcomes sought by the Auckland Plan 2050, Te-Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri the Auckland Climate Action Plan and other council priorities.
Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe
Local impacts and local board views
24. The new Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2022, once introduced, will require road controlling authorities to:
· reduce 40% of their school speed limits by 2024, with all reductions completed by 2030
· include their proposed speed limit changes and safety infrastructure treatments (including proposed safety camera placements) for the coming ten years into speed management plans
· implement a new consultation process that aligns with the three-year Regional Land Transport Planning (RLTP) consultation process.
25. The new rule will remove the requirement to set speed limits through bylaws, enabling a whole-of-network approach that considers safety-related infrastructure improvements, speed limit changes and safety camera placement together.
26. Taken together, these changes will have a significant impact on Auckland communities, and on the ways that Aucklanders input into decisions around safer speed limits.
27. In addition to the feedback local boards are invited to provide in response to this report, local boards will continue to be kept informed and up to date as this process progresses.
Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori
Māori impact statement
28. Auckland Transport is committed to meeting its responsibilities under Te Tiriti o Waitangi and its broader legal obligations in being more responsive to and inclusive of Māori.
29. AT’s Māori Responsiveness Plan outlines the commitment to 19 mana whenua iwi in Auckland to deliver effective and well-designed transport policy and solutions. AT also recognises mataawaka and their representative bodies and desire to foster a relationship with them. This plan is available on the Auckland Transport website - https://at.govt.nz/about-us/transport-plans-strategies/maori-responsiveness-plan/#about
30. Safe speeds make our roads safer for active road users, which encourages more people to walk, cycle and use public transport. Te Ora ō Tāmaki Makaurau is the well-being framework developed by the Mana Whenua Kaitiaki Forum in response to Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri. Safer roads contribute to more people walking or cycling, which in turn supports this framework developed by Mana Whenua.
31. Waka Kotahi’s 2021 study ‘He Pūrongo Whakahaumaru Huarahi Mō Ngā Iwi Māori – Māori Road Safety Outcomes’ provides data demonstrating that Māori are disproportionately more likely to be hurt or killed on New Zealand roads. The interim Speed Management Plan is expected to result in significant positive impacts for Auckland’s Māori communities.
Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea
Financial implications
32. Providing feedback on the development of the interim Speed Management Plan has no financial implications for local boards.
Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga
Risks and mitigations
33. Providing feedback on the development of the interim Speed Management Plan does not present any risks for local boards.
34. There is a risk to Auckland Transport if the interim Speed Management Plan is not finalised in time to meet central government requirements. This risk has been mitigated by ensuring that development and engagement on the interim plan begins ahead of the Minister of Transport announcing a final decision on the proposed rule.
Ngā koringa ā-muri
Next steps
35. Local board feedback will be used by AT to inform the development of the interim Speed Management Plan.
36. Between March and June 2022, Waka Kotahi will confirm that the new Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2022 has been approved by the Minister of Transport.
37. Between June and August 2022, AT will communicate to local boards how their feedback has been taken into account in the development of a draft plan.
38. In late 2022, AT will undertake public consultation on a draft version of the interim Speed Management Plan. The AT Board will then consider any recommended changes to the draft and approve an interim plan.
39. The interim Speed Management Plan will be in place between 2023 and 2026. During 2023, consultation will begin on the first ten-year plan which is expected to be in place from 2024 to 2034.
