Draft Contributions Policy 2022, Variation A
|
|
|
Resolution
number WH/2023/6
MOVED by Chairperson K Thomas, seconded by Member W
Piper:
That
the Whau Local Board:
a) note the recommendations of Auckland
Council’s draft Transport Emissions Reduction Plan and Te
Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland Council’s Climate Plan and
request that staff ensure alignment of these plans and policies.
b) reiterate support for high-quality, compact
urban form with a preference for brownfield over greenfield development and
express concern that Auckland Council is still focusing excessive resource on
future greenfields growth rather than acknowledging the need to shift towards
high-density urban development and the community infrastructure and open space
required to support this shift.
c) reiterate support
for policies that require developers to pay more of the cost of
infrastructure, in particular for greenfields development, and ensure that
policies are structured in such a way as to incentivise brownfields
development and prevent urban sprawl, but equally ensure that brownfields
developments have ample infrastructure including specifically access to green
open space and community infrastructure.
d) while noting that
this sits outside of scope of this present consultation, following recent
flooding events, the Whau local board request that developers be required to
consider the extent of impermeable surfaces over a development, stormwater
retention and provide for more green space.
