MOVED by Chairperson A Fulljames, seconded by Member A Hopkins:  

That the Franklin Local Board:

a)      whakaae / approve its 2023/2024 Infrastructure and Environmental Services work programme and associated budgets, as summarised in the table below (Attachment A to the agenda report):

Activity name

Total

$186,000

b)      request that the board’s direction that the C.R.E.S.T Programme budget allocation should be used to expand the footprint of the programme be reflected in the activity description.

c)      note the allocation of $6,429,320 of asset-based services in 2023/2024 year from capital expenditure budget towards:

·    Big Bay Reserve - renew coastal assets $1,431,000

·    Clarks Beach and adjoining accesses - renew steps and fences $67,000

·    Glenbrook Beach Beachfront - renew coastal assets $120,000

·    Kawakawa Bay - investigate design and repair wharf $210,000

·    Kawakawa Bay Boat Ramp Resurfacing $365,000

·    Maraetai Wharf - remediation $1,136,320

·    Ōrere Point Beach – removal of failed stream training wall - $684,000

·    Sunkist Bay Wharf - $334,000

·    Tamakae Reserve - renew wharf structure - $802,000.

 

d)         note the board‘s concern about the reduction of capital budget allocation to $67,000 for the Clarks Beach and adjoining access projects reflected in resolution (c) above; however acknowledge the new information tabled by staff at the meeting i.e. that the current budget allocation has since been amended to $350,000 for the project.

e)          note that the $887,000 budget allocation for the sea wall renewal at Sunkist Bay is likely to be insufficient and that more budget should be allocated i.e. $1.2 million.

f)           request that the Planning Environment and Parks Committee of Auckland Council as decision-makers on the coastal capital programme be advised that the Franklin Local Board considers $350,000 to be a more suitable budget for the Clarks Beach and adjoining accesses project and $1.2 million be a more suitable budget for the Sunkist Bay renewal project and support both of those proposals at that level.

Council-controlled organisation update on work programme items (Apr-Jun 2023) and expected milestones (Jul-Sep 2023)

 

Jennifer Fraser (AT) and  Richard Davison , Eke Panuku, were online for this item.

 

Resolution number FR/2023/108

MOVED by Deputy Chairperson A Cole, seconded by Member A Hopkins:  

That the Franklin Local Board:

a)      whiwhi / receive the council-controlled organisation update on the work programme (Apr-Jun 2023) and anticipated milestones and engagement approaches for Quarter One (Jul-Sep 2023) with the following feedback:

 

 

 

 

Auckland Transport

i)               advocate for the progression of the upgrade of Hingaia Road and the Hingaia Road / Oakland Road intersection as part of the Regional Land Transport Plan process, and request that this be added to the Franklin Local Board engagement plan.

ii)             appreciate the willingness of Auckland Transport to respond to the Board’s request for a briefing on this project, but note with disappointment that the Franklin Local Board were not provided the opportunity to advocate for local views in the recent consultation process, and consider this project to be of high local interest to Franklin communities who will be impacted by this proposal

iii)            request that the following feedback from the board be considered as the project progresses and through the RLTP process:

A.    there is concern about the additional traffic lights on the road between Hingaia and the motorway. Hingaia Road is an access point for growing communities in Clarks Beach, Glenbrook, Kingseat as well as Waiuku to the motorway network and to the train station, and the proposal is likely to increase travel time and increase emissions as cars stop and start. Note that these communities in Franklin’s south west do not currently have effective public/alternative transport options.

B.    consider that this stretch of road should be delivered with four lanes without delay, as part of the original Stage Two for this road, and consider the staged approach to be an inefficient use of resources.

iv)            note with concern the condition of the whole of Mill Road, Pukekohe and in particular the recent road renewal. Request further advice on whether the road should be upgraded to asphalt given traffic volumes are over 19,000 per day (as part of the consultation for the road renewal programme).

v)             request more prior engagement around the road renewals programme, particularly in relation to road closures or stop/go’s.

Watercare

vi)            thank Watercare for excellent communication and engagement on projects and issues in the Franklin Local Board area, and recommend that other CCO’s consider the Watercare approach to local  board engagement.

 

Eke Panuku

vii)          note the proposal verbally tabled at the meeting outlining the process for progressing co-naming of Roulston Park (Pukekohe) alongside the re-development of the park as part of the Unlock Pukekohe programme.

viii)         request that staff within the Māori Outcomes unit of Regional Services and Strategy add Roulston Park to the list of parks and reserves to be considered for co-naming by mana whenua as part of tranche 2 of the Te Kete Rukuruku programme.

ix)            thank Eke Panuku for continued work on the Unlock Pukekohe programme and in supporting the local board on optimisation projects.

Tātaki Auckland Unlimited

x)             request that engagement on the Southern Auckland Economic Masterplan change from consult to collaborate noting the high level of impact and opportunity this will provide to local communities.

 

xi)            note that Franklin Local Board has reserved $20,000 in funding to enable collaboration on Destination Management Plans for the South East coast and Waiuku/Awhitu and request that Tātaki Auckland Unlimited staff provide advice to the Franklin Local Board on allocating the funding and scoping the work.

xii)          note with disappointment the Tātaki Auckland Unlimited proposed decision to exit from supporting local economic development programmes through local board work programmes and the lack of local board discussion on alternative opportunities. The Franklin Local Board seeks a commitment from Tātaki Auckland Unlimited to directly engage with the board at a future workshop on ongoing support for local economic outcomes through the engagement plan noting that the board has reserved $360,000 from its budget toward partnering in the delivery of economic development and regenerative tourism outcomes in 2023/2024 which it is currently unable to allocate toward delivery.

xiii)         request that the board’s resolutions xii-xiii be shared with the Tātaki Auckland Unlimited (TAU) board, Mayor and Councillors for their information and to ensure that the lost opportunity in the delivery of regional economic development through local partnership is fully understood in making decisions on TAU service delivery, and by the governing body in the approval of TAU scope of service.

Auckland Transport: Franklin Local Board Transport Capital Fund

 

Jennifer Fraser and Raman Singh, Auckland Transport, were online for this item.

 

Resolution number FR/2023/109

MOVED by Chairperson A Fulljames, seconded by Deputy Chairperson A Cole:  

That the Franklin Local Board:

a)      allocate the Local Board Transport Capital Fund 2022-2025 in part, prioritising as follows:

i)    Jutland Road footbridge - $600,000 (further funding)

ii)   Beachlands Kerb and Channel - $680,000 (partial project)

iii)  Clarks Beach/Waiau Pa Pathway - $700,000

iv)  George Street/France Street/Kaiwaka Road – (Waiuku Primary School ) safety improvements - $300,000

v)    King Street /Kitchener Road (Waiuku) Crossing Upgrade - $70,000

vi)   any balance of funding allocation to be assigned to delivering Beachlands Kerb and Channel to reflect c) below.

b)         request that the Auckland Transport team responsible for planning and delivering the Local Board Transport Capital fund engage with the Healthy Waters department of Auckland Council to understand how the proposed ‘Making Space for Water” programme could contribute to the Jutland Road footbridge project, noting that this project is intended to enhance safe pedestrian access across a stormwater asset.

c)          note that the Jutland Road footbridge and Beachlands Kerb and Channel projects are budget priorities for completion as both projects have commenced thanks to previous local board investment but are still incomplete. Sufficient overall budget should be retained to ensure completion of these projects before alternative investment in projects iii-vi. The order of priority within the Beachlands kerb and channel project is:

i)           First View Avenue

ii)         Karaka Road

iii)        Second View Avenue.

d)         request that AT staff make every effort to secure additional funding from other budgets and other partners to supplement board investment in the listed projects.

e)          request advice on the engineering and associated costs for the Jutland Road footbridge and request that this advice be shared with the board as part of a progress briefing before the end of 2023. 

f)           note concern regarding the process for recommending projects to be funded by the Transport Capital Fund and considerations by Auckland Transport in recommending options to the board.

Auckland Unitary Plan - Local board views on Plan Change 87 (Private) for 301 and 303 Buckland Road, Pukekohe

 

Resolution number FR/2023/111

MOVED by Deputy Chairperson A Cole, seconded by Chairperson A Fulljames:  

That the Franklin Local Board:

a)         whakarite / provide local board views on Plan Change 87 by Pukekohe Ltd for 301 and 303 Buckland Road, Pukekohe as follows:

i)        support the proposed plan change, and note the board’s preference that the site be developed to accommodate light industrial versus general business as this would deliver better employment opportunity outcomes for locals, and would align better with activity on adjacent land that business that is retail-based.

ii)      consider that a reasonable buffer zone is appropriate if planted suitably, however note that there are likely to be some issues between urban business and food production (rural business) activities. It will be important that developers design and develop the site in a way that considers adjacent activity i.e. mitigating through building positioning, planting etc and that future tenants understand  and accept the implications of adjacent activities i.e. the need for extra cleaning, seasonal noise issues etc.

iii)    recommend reference to the National Policy Statement for Highly Productive Land (NPS-HPL) 2022 (mitigation of reverse sensitivity to protect rural production)

b)      decline the opportunity to appoint a local board member to speak to the local board views at a hearing on Plan Change 87.
