Local board input into Auckland Council’s submission on the Local Government (System Improvements) Amendment Bill |
|
|
Resolution number MO/2025/131 MOVED by Member C O'Brien, seconded by Member J Glassie-Rasmussen: That the Māngere-Ōtāhuhu Local Board: a) whakamihi / thank the government for the opportunity to provide feedback on the Local Government System Improvements Amendment Bill and notes that Auckland Council’s Planning, Environment and Parks Committee has resolved to strongly oppose the Bill b) āhukahuka / acknowledge the impact of rising living costs on its community and recognises the government’s aim to reduce pressure on rates. However, the Board does not believe this Bill will achieve that. The Board does not agree that rates increases, attributed to a “lack of fiscal discipline among councils,” are a major cause, and is concerned that the Bill may weaken local government, reduce local decision-making, and limit the services councils can provide to communities like ours. The Board also considers that reducing local services is not the right way to lower rates. The level of rates should ultimately be a matter for decisions by a Council in consultation with its communities and a key issue in local government elections. Particularly for Councils facing cleaning up after a disaster, having a bulge in expenditure for a locally supported major capital project, or being required by government legislation or policy to carry out major catch-up work on water or other infrastructure, introducing a rates cap is inappropriate, unfair, and likely unworkable in some circumstances c) ātete / oppose removing the “four wellbeings” from the purpose of local government. In Māngere-Ōtāhuhu, these wellbeings guide the work we do in our town centres, local parks, community facilities, and cultural programmes. For example, projects like the Māngere East Housing Redevelopment, stream and awa restoration, and youth programmes all rely on a focus on social, economic, environmental, and cultural wellbeing d) does not support a fixed list of “core services.” Our community relies on more than just basic services. The Māngere Arts Centre – Ngā Tohu o Uenuku, community hubs like Māngere East Community Centre and Ōtāhuhu Town Hall, sports programmes, and local environmental initiatives are all critical to our community’s connection and resilience. Limiting these to “non-core” services would be harmful e) tuhi tīpoka / note concerns that tying rates-capping to a narrow list of core services would reduce council flexibility. This could put projects like waste minimisation education, environmental protection in the Manukau Harbour, and local youth and cultural initiatives at risk, even though they are essential to the wellbeing of our communities f) ātete / oppose provisions that reduce consultation on performance measures and requests clear definitions if reporting obligations for contractors and consultants are retained g) does not support standardised codes of conduct and standing orders set by central government. Local boards and councils must retain the ability to reflect local communities in their approaches. The Board supports stronger responsibilities for chief executives to share information with elected members and welcomes governance principles that promote collaboration and open discussion. Similarly, local Māori Kaua, or Pasifika ways of meeting, for instance, may well be appropriate to incorporate in some councils' standing orders but not in others. This needs to remain a local decision ultimately. A proposal to have the Code of Conduct breaches investigated and recommended on independently of the Council would be helpful h) tatutoko / support modernising public notice requirements if consistently applied but opposes removing the six-yearly service review requirement. These reviews are important to ensure transparency, consider alternative providers including Māori providers, and identify opportunities for efficiencies i) tautoko / support clarifications regarding chief executives, including the option for a longer second term, and supports changes to development contributions if drafting is clear j) strongly opposes removing the requirement to consider tikanga Māori when appointing CCO directors. In Māngere-Ōtāhuhu, where our community has a strong Māori and Pacific presence, it is essential that decision-making bodies have cultural knowledge and understanding, particularly in areas like parks, transport, and water services that directly affect our people k) concludes that the Board opposes the Bill overall. It would weaken local government, reduce decision-making at the local level, and limit the services that communities like Māngere-Ōtāhuhu rely on. The four wellbeings remain essential to building resilient, connected, and equitable communities.
