Summary of
Discussions
Parks and Community Facilities
staff were in attendance to speak to the board about the CAPEX work programme
and the underspend.
Nathan Homestead update
· The timeframe for the completion of works has been extended past
the original date of June 2025 and now is September 2025, due to new
information arising during the work. This new date does fall under the 10-15
month estimate that was originally given.
· Member asked around clarification on whether the September
completion date is when work is completed or the reopening of the facility.
Staff clarified this will be the completion date for construction, ground
work, cleaning up and handover would be another 3-4 weeks.
Manurewa Netball Complex
· Staff note building two, which is the squash facility, is
earthquake prone.
· Chair asked is lateral movement was also an issue, staff said
there is minor work that needs to be done around this.
· Maintenance for air quality is under control as work has been
undertaken to mitigate this.
Te Matariki Clendon Community Centre
· Assessments are already completed and design is due in
September/October.
· Staff stated it would not be safe to undertake construction with
children and community around. This means the building would have to be
closed for around 8-9 months minimum.
Financial Year 25 CAPEX
· Board gave direction to proceed with assigning part of the
underspend to fully fund the Rowandale playground project.
· Chair mentioned Randwick Park skate park, fencing in Randwick Park
(tennis courts) and cricket nets at Weymouth Park could be scoped as other
options for the underspend.
