Part A Reports

 

Ocean Grove Recreation Hall
Invitation to assist with formation of steering committee

Department: Property

 

 

 

 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1      This report is to seek support from the Otago Peninsula Community Board to help with the establishment of a steering committee for the Ocean Grove Recreation Hall.

 

RECOMMENDATIONS

That the Board:

a)     Notes the report

b)     Decides to assist with the initial set-up of a steering committee for the Ocean Grove Recreation Hall.

 

 

BACKGROUND

2      The Ocean Grove area is home to three Dunedin City Council owned facilities;

1)     Tomahawk School

2)     Ocean Grove Domain Hall

3)     Ocean Grove Recreation Hall

 

 

3      Dunedin City Council staff engaged with the Ocean Grove community in October 2018 to inform the community of what was proposed around the three sites.

4      The Tomahawk School building is to be demolished in early 2019, with further engagement with the community planned later in 2019 regarding the future development of the site.

5      The Ocean Grove Domain Hall would no longer receive investment from Dunedin City Council, due to numerous structural issues with the building, and flooding issues with the site. Further engagement with the community is planned for later in 2019 regarding the future development of the site. 

6      The Ocean Grove Recreation Hall would become the single multi-purpose community facility. A steering committee would be formed to work with Dunedin City Council staff to develop the scope of building improvements required to upgrade the building into a modern, multi-purpose community facility.

7      Feedback from the engagement events carried out in October 2018 with the Ocean Grove community identified the need for support in forming a steering committee, as attempts in the past to form a steering committee were not successful.

8      A list of thirty-six residents from the Ocean Grove community had indicated they were willing to be involved in forming such a committee.

DISCUSSION

9      The Ocean Grove community accepted that the Ocean Grove Recreation Hall was the practical choice for a single multi-purpose community facility, and had identified that they needed support around the process of forming a steering committee.

10    If the Otago Peninsula Community Board deems it appropriate, it would help facilitate initial Ocean Grove Recreation Hall Committee meetings alongside Dunedin City Council staff, to support the Ocean Grove community through the process of forming a steering committee.

11    The steering committee would be asked for their input on behalf of the Ocean Grove community with identifying the range of work required to turn the Ocean Grove Recreation Hall in to a multi-purpose community facility.

12    The steering committee would also look at the possible future development of an Incorporated Society or Hall Committee, who would manage the day to day running of the Ocean Grove Recreation Hall in the future.

 

 

OPTIONS Option One – Assist with the initial set-up of a steering committee for the Ocean Grove Recreation Hall.

The Otago Peninsula Community Board supports the process of forming an initial steering committee, and continues to give support if requested by the steering committee in the future. Advantages

·           Creates a strong link with the Otago Peninsula Community Board and the Ocean Grove community.

·           The Ocean Grove community falls within the Otago Peninsula Community
Board’s boundary and they have responsibility to advocate for the communities that lie within that boundary.

·           The Ocean Grove community can utilize the Otago Peninsula Community Board’s expertise.

Disadvantages

·           Additional stakeholder involvement could lead to progress being delayed.

Option Two – Do not assist with the initial set-up of a steering committee for the Ocean Grove Recreation Hall.

Advantages

·           The Ocean Grove community may feel they can make faster progress without additional stakeholder involvement.

Disadvantages

·           No strong link is established between the Otago Peninsula Community Board and the Ocean Grove community.

·           The Otago Peninsula Community Board is unable to advocate fully for the communities that lie within their boundary.

·           The Ocean Grove community is unable to fully utilize the Otago Peninsula Community Board’s expertise.

 

NEXT STEPS

13      If the Otago Peninsula Community Board agrees to assist with the formation of a steering committee, a date would be set for a meeting with the Ocean Grove community, and Dunedin City Council staff.

Proposal to Rename Desert Road

Department: Transport

 

 

 

 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1      The purpose of this report is to present a proposal for the renaming of Desert Road, which joins Harington Point Road on the Otago Peninsula.

2      The proposed road name Moepuku Road is to replace the current road name.

3      The proposed road name complies with the Dunedin City Council Road Naming Policy (the Policy) and is recommended for support by the Otago Peninsula Community Board.

RECOMMENDATIONS

That the Board:

a)     Supports renaming “Desert Road” to “Moepuku Road”

b)     Notes that this recommendation will be included in the final road naming report to be presented to the Infrastructure Services and Networks Committee

 

BACKGROUND

4      Mr Edward Ellison, a landowner whose property is accessed directly from “Desert Road”, has submitted a letter to Council (Attachment A) establishing that the road has been named incorrectly.

5      Mr Ellison proposes that the name be changed to “Moepuku Road” in reference to a local geographical feature, and to better reflect the history of the area.

DISCUSSION

6      A land slip in 1968, and subsequent land movement, made the original Harington Point Road alignment unpassable. As a result, Harington Point Road was relocated to its current position north-west of the original road alignment.

7      A section of the original road alignment, to the south of the land slip, is named “Desert Road”. It provides physical access to several properties. The attached Dunedin City Council aerial photograph/map depicts this alignment (Attachment B).

8      Sections of the original formation to the north of the land slip site do not carry the name “Desert Road” on Council maps, and are therefore not a subject of this report.

9      When the present Harington Point Road formation was first constructed, it was left unsealed to enable it to be compacted by the passing of traffic over the carriageway. Because of its barren and sandy appearance at the time, it was given the local nickname “Desert Road”.

10    The section of the original alignment to the south of the land slip site has become known as “Desert Road”.  It appears on Council and Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) maps with this name (Attachments B and C).

11    Application of the name “Desert Road” to the section of the original Harington Point Road alignment south of the land slip site is an error, as this name was first used in reference to the original construction of the present Harington Point Road alignment.

12    Mr Ellison proposes “Desert Road” be renamed “Moepuku Road”.

13    “Moepuku” is the name of an old wetland, the remains of which can still be seen to the west of the Harington Point Road/”Desert Road” intersection. This wetland appears in name on the early of maps and documents relating to the area, and is included in the text of the 1844 Deed of Sale for Ōtākou to the NZ Land Company. Documentation supplied by Mr Ellison in support of this name is attached to this report (Attachments D and E).

14    The Policy allows for altering the name of an existing road. The proposed renaming of “Desert Road” to “Moepuku Road” is considered to comply with the Policy insofar as it will result in a benefit to the community by replacing an incorrect road name with a name of a local geographical feature.

15    The name “Moepuku” is considered to comply with the selection criteria of the Policy.

OPTIONS Option One – The Board supports renaming Desert Road as Moepuku Road (Recommended Option) Advantages

·           The proposed name corrects a mistake and replaces an incorrect road name with a name of a local geographical feature.

·           The proposed name is considered to be compliant with the Road Naming Policy.

Disadvantages

·           There are no significant disadvantages with this option.

Option Two – The Board does not support renaming Desert Road as Moepuku Road (Alternative Option)

Advantages

·           There are no significant advantages with this option.

Disadvantages

·           The existing incorrect road name remains.

NEXT STEPS

16    If the recommend name is supported, staff will request that it be formally approved by the Infrastructure Services and Networks Committee.

Community Board Remuneration

Department: Civic

 

 

 

 

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1      The Local Government Act 2002 (LGA) gives the Remuneration Authority (the Authority) the responsibility for setting remuneration for local government elected members. 

2      The Authority is seeking feedback on how Community Boards should be remunerated for the determination it will issue on 1 July 2019.  Currently, the Authority sets the amount of remuneration for each chair and member of every Community Board.

3      The Authority is now seeking feedback on whether or not Community Boards should be funded from a “governance pool”.  Regardless of how they are funded, the Authority is also asking if remuneration should reflect the number of residents represented by the whole board, or the number of residents represented by each member.

4      As this is an administrative report, the summary of considerations is not required.

 

RECOMMENDATIONS

That the Board:

a)     Notes the Community Board Remuneration report.

b)     Considers the Remuneration Authority request and provides feedback as appropriate. 

 

 

BACKGROUND

5      Over the past two years, the Authority has been undertaking a review of how it sets remuneration for councillors of local authorities.  It has decided to change the current system of allocating a base pay for each councillor, along with a pool for remunerating additional responsibilities, to a system of allocating a governance pool to each council, with each council then determining how the governance pool is to be allocated to councillors.  The Authority will continue to determine the remuneration paid to each Mayor.

DISCUSSION

6      The Authority is now asking for feedback on whether the governance pool being introduced should include remuneration for Community Boards, and if so, how should it account for the impact of the relativities between Councils with Community Boards and those that do not have Community Boards. 

7      The Authority also notes that there appears to be big variations in member numbers of Community Boards, even between Boards with similar populations.  Regardless of how Community Boards are remunerated, the Authority would also like feedback on whether Community Board remuneration should reflect the number of residents represented by the whole board or the number of residents represented by each member

8      Key statistics are provided by the Authority in Attachment A to C for information purposes, along with the request for feedback from the Authority at Attachment D. 

OPTIONS

9      There are no options for this report.

NEXT STEPS

10    Feedback received from the Community Board will be provided to the Council for information at the 19 February Council meeting, and then forwarded with the Council’s comments to the Remuneration Authority on 20 February 2019.

New Zealand Community Boards’ Conference Attendance

4      The 2019 New Zealand Community Boards’ Conference is being held at the Devon Hotel, New Plymouth from 11 – 13 April 2019.  Early bird registrations ($755.00 including GST) close on 1 March 2019 and standard registrations ($855.00 including GST) are available following that.  The Council’s policy on attendance at this conference is as follows:

a)     Council will cover the accommodation, travel and registration costs for one Community Board member (per Community Board) to attend the biennial Community Boards Conference when it is held in the South Island, and two Community Board members IN TOTAL to attend the conference when it is held in the North Island.

b)     Individual Community Boards are responsible for covering the costs of any additional delegates they wish to send to the Conference over and above the representatives for whom costs will be met by the Council.

5      If the Board wishes to nominate a member to go into the draw for one of the two Council-funded places, please advise Sharon Bodeker of the name by 15 February 2019. Any additional members the Board wishes to attend (or those unsuccessful in the draw) can be paid for from the Board's project fund
