Public forum

Jenny Pearce - Manager, Citizens Advice Bureau Napier branch

Jenny Pearce spoke on behalf of the Citizens Advice Bureau Napier branch (CAB), requesting that Council reconsider the decision to relocate CAB to Taradale. She noted that it is paramount for CAB to be located in a central location where the public can access their services. They request Council assistance with additional funding of $15,000 per annum to remain in their current location for 3-5 years, or until another suitable location can be sourced.

 

In response to questions from Councillors, the following points were clarified:

·         Additional funding is required from around June 2019.

·         CAB will approach their current landlord and come back to Council officers regarding a possible renewal of their lease.

·         The Manager Community Strategies advised that the original intention in relocating CAB to the Taradale community hub was to be able to offer CAB a community rate in a Council building, as opposed to paying a private rental.

Since this decision was made however, time has moved on and the library building and site has presented itself as an opportunity to consider incorporating CAB into the new library development.

Council officers agree with the requirement for CAB to be located in the CBD and are trying to facilitate this through the library development; they have discussed a temporary solution of extending the lease.

Ordinary Meeting of Council - 11 December 2018 - Open Minutes

Agenda Items

 

1.    Hawke's Bay Airport Ltd Annual Report 2018

Type of Report:

Procedural

Legal Reference:

Local Government Act 2002

Document ID:

667551

Reporting Officer/s & Unit:

Caroline Thomson, Chief Financial Officer

 

1.1   Purpose of Report

To present to Council the Hawke’s Bay Airport Ltd Annual Report 2018.

 

At the meeting

Tony Porter, Stuart Ainslie and Sarah Park of Hawke’s Bay Airport Ltd (HBAL) spoke to the 2018 Annual Report providing an overview of the financials and reported on increasing growth in passenger numbers. Councillors were walked through floorplans for the new terminal building and given an update as to progress. Security screening and car parking were highlighted as upcoming projects.

In response to questions from Councillors, the following points were clarified:

·         HBAL confirmed that no formal approach had been made in relation to Mana Ahuriri and the government’s shareholding.

·         They are working closely with partners, including Mana Ahuriri and environmental agencies around health and safety concerns regarding proximity to the estuary and cycle pathways etc.

·         The expanded plans for the terminal footprint may have coincided with the appointment of the new CEO but Directors were already uncomfortable with the size of the planned expansion prior to his appointment. The growth over the last three years has warranted the expansion and when the CEO commenced, the project was not too far along to reassess the plans. Security screening was thought to be a long way off when the plans were first considered but government has since indicated this this is now inevitable. HBAL are comfortable that they have created more opportunity by spending additional capital at this time.

·         It is inevitable that jets will be introduced at Hawke’s Bay Airport in the future; jets deliver a better scale of economy for airlines on certain routes.

·         Tapping into the export market would significantly increase the economic benefit to the region; this absolutely should be explored in future but how this would look is not known at this point.

·         The commercial model for carparking will be assessed. It is expected at some point that parking cost increases may need to be considered, but any increases would be carefully assessed and appropriate for the product offering.

·         HBAL are partnering with the Masterplan reviewer to create a safe connection into the airport zone for pedestrians and the cycle pathways.

Council resolution

Councillors Dalton / Taylor

That Council:

a.     Receive the Hawke's Bay Airport Ltd Annual Report 2018

 

 

 

2.    Whakarire Revetment Funding Proposal

Type of Report:

Operational

Legal Reference:

Local Government Act 2002

Document ID:

679075

Reporting Officer/s & Unit:

Caroline Thomson, Chief Financial Officer

 

2.1   Purpose of Report

To obtain approval from Council on the public/private funding split for the Whakarire revetment.

 

At the meeting

Councillor Dallimore noted his objection to the officer’s ‘in principle’ recommendation as he did not believe the Whakarire Avenue ratepayers should be required to contribute to the funding to repair damage caused by others; however, agreed to proceed with the 3% private allocation to ensure progress is made in this matter. The Mayor subsequently proposed that the motion be amended to remove the words ‘in principle’.

The following points were discussed by Councillors:

·         It was noted that the intention of the Coastal Hazards Strategy is to create zones of benefit and if we had a regional funding model in place, the public figure of 97% would be spread across the wider region.

·         This does not affect future decisions regarding mitigation for other damage.

·         $300 per annum for 30 years, for the 12 properties identified in the report, is considered to be an elegant and fair solution to protect these properties in future.

·         It was confirmed that consultation will be undertaken regarding the funding model and residents will have the opportunity to engage in this process.

·         It was suggested that a one-off payment could be preferred by some residents.

·         The impact of the 97% public good, being the balance of ratepayers, will be $6 per annum.

Officer’s Recommendation

 

That Council:

a.     Approve, in principle, a funding option of 97% public and 3% private allocation for the revetment works at Whakarire Avenue in accordance with Section 101(3) of the Local Government Act the Council.

b.     Discuss options of funding by general rate or UAGC with preference to be identified and further details to be brought back to Council for consideration and subsequent community consultation.

c.     Note that consultation will be undertaken as appropriate comprising informal consultation on a proposed funding option as per part a above, culminating in formal consultation as part of the 2019/20 Annual Plan process.

 

Substitute Motion Council resolution

 

Councillors Dalton / Hague

4.    Quarterly Report for the three months ended 30 September 2018

Type of Report:

Operational and Procedural

Legal Reference:

Local Government Act 2002

Document ID:

675093

Reporting Officer/s & Unit:

Caroline Thomson, Chief Financial Officer

 

4.1   Purpose of Report

To consider the Quarterly Report for the three months ended 30 September 2018.

 

At the meeting

In response to questions from Councillors, the following points were clarified:

·         It was originally thought that the Taradale reservoir would be brought online before the end of December but this is unlikely as contractors have not completed works yet. This reservoir is not critical to meet water demands over summer; however, Council could occupy the reservoir on a temporary basis if required.

·         Officers will come back to Council as to whether we should be reporting on wet weather overflows under wastewater management; we are currently reporting on dry weather overflows only.

·         Officers will email Councillors as to how the risks are being addressed regarding building consent performance and the changes to playground inspections.

·         The City Strategy measures noted are new measures brought in to report on the performance of the directorate.

The Chief Executive provided an update to Councillors on the events over the weekend as a result of the Church Road booster coming on board. Officers were testing the booster for the summer period which resulted in an increased flow rate and change in direction. Some discolouration was expected, but not the levels that occurred. The team are considering other ways to address the sediment issue and a Councillor workshop will be held to discuss options.

It was noted that the flushing of the pipes had been advertised and staff were very responsive, but unfortunately they cannot be everywhere at once and were required to cover a much larger area than intended.

As far as addressing goodwill with the community, the best way to repair this is to fix the problem. Officers are considering elements of the three waters programme that could potentially be brought forward, such as the Taradale bore field, or zone metering to better understand how water moves through our network. Officers advised they are aiming for early 2019 for de-chlorinated water station location options and the design process is underway; however, reactive work continues to slow progress in this space.

Council resolution

Councillors Wise / Wright

That Council:

a.     Receive the Quarterly Report for the three months ended 30 September 2018.

Legal Reference:

Local Government Act 2002

Document ID:

468094

Reporting Officer/s & Unit:

Tony Mills, Senior Roading Engineer

 

2.1   Purpose of Report

The purpose of this report is to recommend Council to commence formal public consultation on the proposed changes to the “’Napier City Council Speed Limits Bylaw 2012” and the accompanying Statement of Proposal.

 

The proposed changes follow the introduction of the new “Speed Management Guide” which was developed by the New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) to help Road Controlling Authorities (RCAs) better understand the risk associated with their roads so that the appropriate speed limits can be set.  

 

Informal public consultation was undertaken to enable the community to have input in to the process at an early stage and the findings are detailed in this report.

 

 

At the meeting

Councillor McGrath noted that he would be voting against the motion due to expressed concerns of predetermination regarding a proposed speed change in Tamatea.

It was noted that clear signage will be key to ensuring the effective implementation of any speed changes.

Council resolution

Councillors Wright / Dallimore

That Council:

a.     Adopt the report from the Senior Roading Engineer titled “Speed Limit Bylaw Review 2018” with the reasons for the decision being:

i.      That a bylaw is the only method mandated by the Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2017

ii.     That the right to control speed limits is granted by Parliament to territorial authorities and the limitations proposed are justified limitations in terms of section 5 of the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990 and that there is accordingly no breach of the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act.

iii.    That the consultation on the speed limits will allow affected parties and the wider community to fully consider the bylaw amendments proposed having regard to the requirements of the Rule 4.2(2) of the Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2017

b.     Adopt the Proposed Amendments to the Speed Limits Bylaw 2012 and the Statement of Proposal to commence public consultation in accordance with the special consultative procedure under the Local Government Act 2002 and the Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2017.

3.1   Purpose of Report

To obtain a Council decision to enter into a new ground lease with the Napier Free Kindergarten Association Incorporated for the Carlyle Kindergarten at the Thackeray Street Reserve.

 

 

At the meeting

In response to questions from Councillors the following points were clarified:

·         There are seven kindergartens on Council owned land. It is standard practice for community groups, rugby clubs etc. to be granted a 15 year lease with a further 15 year right of renewal, at Council’s discretion. This acknowledges that the buildings are generally owned by the organisation who, in some cases, have made substantial investment in these buildings. 

·         Internal processes are followed and the appropriate teams are consulted when formalising documentation for ground leases.

·         Officers did not consider that granting the lease to Taradale Kindergarten would impede progress in Taradale Park in future.

Council resolution

Councillors White / Brosnan

That Council:

a.     Resolve to enter into a new ground lease with the Napier Free Kindergarten Association Incorporated for the Carlyle Kindergarten for a term of 15 years with one 15-year right of renewal.
