Meeting Schedule
9 The Council has adopted the 2021 Meeting Schedule. The proposed meeting dates for the Mosgiel-Taieri Community Board are attached for approval (attachment C).
10 The Board may wish to give consideration to moving its 17 March 2021 meeting to mid-April 2021 to consider and adopt the Board’s submission to the DCC on the 10 year plan 2021-31 prior to the close of submissions as the 17 March meeting is outside the consultation period.
Dunedin City Council 10 year plan consultation
11 The public consultation period for the 10 year plan 2021-31 is from 30 March to 29 April 2021. The Board may wish to consider holding a board workshop.
12 Staff are currently working on a number of opportunities for engagement.
Play Spaces Review
13 The draft Play Spaces Plan and Background Report are awaiting feedback from members of the Working Party. When feedback is received, the plan will be amended and presented to Council for approval. Individual projects will then proceed in accordance with the plan.
Tracks and Trails Review
14 The draft background report has been completed and is sitting with the Project Team Members for their feedback. The Stakeholder consultation document is being drafted and it is anticipated that stakeholder engagement will occur early 2021 pending the outcome of feedback.
Sportsfield Review
15 Data collection and analysis has been completed. A draft strategy and action plan are currently being developed.
16 Staff are waiting on information regarding the DCC wide CCTV assessment project.
Mosgiel Pool
17 During the tender process, tenderers presented their preference, rationale, and plans for demolishing the existing pool during construction vs keeping it operating until the new facility opened.
18 The Evaluation Panel reconsidered the approach due to two factors:
a) New facility opening sooner; and
b) Health and Safety – There were concerns regarding safety to members of the community if the current pool was still in operation
19 On this basis, a decision was made that the current pool should be demolished prior to the new facility opening, with the resulting loss of one season of swimming in Mosgiel for 2021-2022.
20 However, the positive offset is having a new multi-pool year round facility open earlier with significantly reduced Health and Safety Risks to the community.
Community Board Conference
21 The Community Board Conference is being held in Gore on 22-24 April. Council policy allows for one Board member per Board to be funded by the Council. The Board may wish to consider nominating a Board member to attend the Conference (attachment D).
Community Board Outstanding Awards Nomination
22 At the Community Board conference in April, nominations for the outstanding community board member are being called for. The Community Board Executive Committee is also inviting Community Boards to share good practice examples. Refer to Attachments B and C. Applications close at 5.00pm on Friday 26 March 2021 (attachment E).
Review of Keeping of Animals (excluding Dogs) and Birds Bylaw
23 Customer and Regulatory staff are currently reviewing this bylaw. While the primary focus of the review is to address concerns about roosters, the bylaw also covers birds, bees and other animals (with the exception of dogs which is covered by the Dog Control Bylaw). At this early stage staff are investigating different options and will be in touch with Community Boards soon asking them to circulate a short survey through their networks. Any initial thoughts can be directed to the Policy Analyst – Regulatory Services Group, Anne.Gray@dcc.govt.nz please.
24 Formal consultation on options is expected to take place early to mid-2021.
Currently Being Consulted On by Dunedin City Council
