e) whakarite / provide the following feedback on the Franklin Local Board Work programme 2024/2025 Q1 report provided in Attachment A.

i) future reports should include specific updates on how initiatives are delivering on Māori outcomes, where staff have identified that an initiative delivers on Māori outcomes e.g. initiatives identified at work programme adoption in June 2024. Any changes to that intent should also be signalled in reports i.e. where staff no longer consider that an initiative delivers a Māori outcome

ii) suggest a better reflection of Māori outcomes is needed in reporting, noting that delivery on Māori outcomes is now a specific performance measure in local board agreements that boards must be supported to monitor

iii) the Q1 commentary for ID 30483 Manage Coastal vegetation issue references performance in the 2023/2024 financial year; request that future commentary be updated to reflect the current financial year

iv) the Q1 RAG status for ID 27990 Orere Point Stormwater upgrade and slip prevention is incorrect. The deferral of a project to future financial years should be reflected as a cancellation of delivery in the current financial year

v) the Q1 RAG status for ID 28595 Colin Lawrie Reserve playground renewal should not be Green if the project is assessed as ‘on hold’. Either the project is on hold and status is orange or red; or it is not on hold, in which case it is green. It cannot be both

vi) the Q1 RAG status for ID 28603 Te Ngaio / Hudson’s Beach playground renewal does not align with the commentary, which refers to a project phasing change. The status of this project should be corrected in future reports

vii) the Q1 commentary for ID 1016 Wai o Manu Reserve Development indicates that a decision has been made to allocate local board funding toward planting in FY25, however the board notes that the board has yet to be approve this suggestion. The board notes that approval from the board must be sought before funds can be allocated until a new committee is established and approval delegated to that committee

viii) the Q1 report LB outcome description for ID 4464 Delivery of Franklin Paths Programme is incorrect. The Franklin Local Board Plan 2023 outcome that aligns with this initiative is ‘Our Environment’. The board requests that this is corrected for the next report

ix) The Q1 RAG status for ID 287 Wider Southern Local Settlements planning scoping study is green, which does not align with the activity status or commentary which suggests the initiative is on hold. The board requests that this is updated in the Q2 report

x) the report includes an update on ID 4479 Rotary Gabion Seawall renewal. The board notes that this project is not in the Franklin Local Board area, i.e. is in Pakuranga, which is in the Howick Local Board area and should not be included in the Franklin Local Board work programme report

xi) a correction to ID 4325 Franklin Local Service property portfolio review is needed. The commentary refers to work in the 2023/2024 financial year and should not be included in the Q1 report. The board also notes its disappointment that it has yet to be engaged in this work despite clearly signalling a strong need and willingness to progress changes to its service property portfolio.

Auckland Transport bi-monthly report to the Franklin Local Board - October 2024

Bruce Thomas, Elected Member Relationship Advisor, Auckland Transport, was in attendance to speak to this report

Resolution number FR/2024/234

MOVED by Member A Hopkins, seconded by Member M Bell JP:

That the Franklin Local Board:

a) whiwhi / receive the December 2024 report from Auckland Transport.

Waka Kotahi/NZTA decision to pause designation of land to enable future four-tracking

b)tuhi ā-taipitopito / note with disappointment that NZTA/Waka Kotahi has decided not to prioritise the designation of land and planning for the four tracking and walking and cycling path of the Southern rail corridor. The board considers that pausing this essential piece of future-proofing work is short-sighted and will have significant economic, social and environmental implications given the planned development in the south, including at Drury, Paerātā, Pukekohe and the north Waikato

c) tono / request that AT advocate for the rail corridor walking and cycling outcome to be de-coupled from the passenger rail benefits (express services) and increased freight movement outcomes anticipated from four-tracking. The board considers that if de-coupled, the project would align strongly with the current government policy statement. Walking and cycling can and is being pursued outside of this project i.e. through state highway, motorway and local government-led projects

d) tono / request that Auckland Transport and Auckland Council planning staff provide advice to the board on the implications of the NTZA decision to pause the designation of land that would allow for 4-tracking of the southern rail corridor to enable the board to strongly advocate at a central government level for reconsideration of this decision

e) tono / request that AT share resolutions regarding the Waka Kotahi/NZTA decision to pause the designation of land to enable four-tracking with Waka Kotahi/NZTA counterparts

f) tono / request that Local Board support staff share resolutions regarding the Waka Kotahi/NZTA decision to pause the designation of land to enable four-tracking with Waka Kotahi/NZTA counterparts with the Mayor, Franklin Ward Councillor Andrew Baker, Southern Local Board chairs, Minister for Auckland and Transport Simeon Brown, Port Waikato MP Andrew Bayley, Papakura MP Judith Collins and Waikato District Mayor Jacqui Church.

g)whakamihi / thank Auckland Transport for the comprehensive memo provided as Attachment B to this report in response to member queries

h)tautoko / support the addition of new bus services in Beachlands, particularly where these enable the community, including young people, to use public transport to connect with the wider transport network, community services and community facilities

i) tono / request that AT pause the installation of bus shelters and any other infrastructure while the Beachlands community grows and develops, so that patronage patterns and service uptake can be monitored and assessed, with later installation being planned according to observed need and to avoid costly changes at a later date

j) tono / request that AT continue to investigate and return to the board for advice on use of the Council-owned land at Pine Harbour (currently leased out for private parking via Eke Panuku) as a permanent location for the Pine Harbour ferry stop

k) tono / request that staff share (i-j) with the Eke Panuku leasing team for their information

MOVED by Member G Holmes, seconded by Member M Bell JP:

That the Franklin Local Board:

a) ohia / endorse the assessment findings of possible structural problems with the local dog access rules in Attachment B of this agenda report

b) whakaae / agree that Option two (Amend local dog access rule) in Attachment B of this agenda report is the most appropriate response to the assessment findings with the following comments:

i) further location references would be useful to reduce possible confusion, noting that off-leash exercise areas are adjacent to the areas proposed for prohibition i.e reference to Seagrove Road in Clarks Beach as the starting point for prohibition

ii) installation of clear educational signage explaining the reason for dog access rules at all sites is essential as part of the regulation and enforcement approach and will support effectiveness of the rules

iii) suggest that additional clarification on sites in Patumahoe is needed i.e. at Clive Howe and Patumahoe Reserve

iv) note that there are reserves and parks in Franklin that are intended as off-leash areas that should be captured through this process and recommend engaging with the Parks Planning team to identify these e.g. in Paerātā, at the Auranga development in Drury and at the Hingaia Stormwater facility in Drury South

ii) make any amendments to the proposal in Attachment A of this agenda report to correct errors, omissions, insert maps or reflect decisions made by the local board

g) tuhi ā-taipitopito / note the recommendation that the local board would need to fund any bespoke public consultation initiatives and allocate funding for estimated costs in Attachment B of this agenda report (for example for signage) to implement any local dog access rule changes, however do not consider this to be appropriate given development of regulation and enforcement are regional services and should be funded from regional budgets, and that enabling equitable consultation across the region is a responsibility of bylaw and policy staff

i) tono / recommend that consideration of the equitable consultation on and implementation of this bylaw and associated costs be specifically considered by the chief executive and the Governing Body when approving the scope of consultation and later approving changes to the bylaw
