Infrastructure Services Activity Report for the
period ended 30 September 2021
Department: Parks and Recreation, Waste and Environmental
Solutions, Property, 3 Waters and Transport
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1 This
report provides an update on progress towards achieving levels of service for
the following activities, for the period 1 July 2021 to 30 September 2021:
a) Reserves
and Recreational Facilities (Attachment A),
b) Waste
Management (Attachment B),
c) Property
(Attachment C),
d) 3
Waters (Attachment D), and
e) Transport
(Attachment E).
2 As
this is an administrative report only, there are no options or Summary of
Considerations.
|
RECOMMENDATIONS
That the Committee:
a) Notes the update reports on the Reserves and Recreational
Facilities, Waste Management, Property, 3 Waters and Transport activities as
provided in Attachment A to Attachment E.
|
DISCUSSION
3 The
10 year plan sets out the activities undertaken by Council. Each activity
has levels of service that describe what Council will provide to the community,
along with measures and targets used to assess the level of achievement in
delivering those activities. Council reports on its achievement of all
levels of service through its Annual Report.
4 Attachments
A to E report on progress towards achieving the levels of service, measures and
targets as detailed in the 10 year plan the Reserves and Recreational
Facilities, Waste Management, Property, 3 Waters and Transport activities, for
the three months to 30 September 2021. Information on specific areas of
work is also provided for each activity. This is a new approach to
quarterly reporting. It is an iterative process, where improvements
and/or changes will be made to the reports as they are identified.
Consolidated budget information for each activity will be reported to the
Finance and Council Controlled Organisations Committee.
5 The
Residents’ Opinion Survey (ROS) is used by Council to measure achievement
of some of its levels of service, and the results from the survey are shown in
the attached activity reports. Respondents of the survey are asked to
rate their satisfaction levels for some activities on a scale of 1-10 from very
dissatisfied to very satisfied.
6 The
survey is carried out on a continuous monthly basis, with the aim of getting
100 responses each month. This provides a sample size of around 1,200 for
the year, with a quarterly sample size of around 300 residents. A sample
size of 300 has an expected margin of error (at the 95% confidence interval) of
± 5.7%.
NEXT STEPS
7 An
update report for the six months to 31 December 2021 will be presented to the
first Committee meeting in 2022.

Naming of New Roads and Private Way
Department: Transport
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1 This
report seeks the approval of road names for three new roads and one private way
at three different developments in Dunedin:
· Stevenson
Avenue, Sawyers Bay.
· Irwin
Logan Drive, Mosgiel.
· Cemetery
Road, East Taieri.
|
RECOMMENDATIONS
That the Committee:
a) Names a private way off 105 & 107 Stevenson Avenue,
Sawyers Bay, as ‘Shirley Lane’.
b) Names a new road off 60 Irwin Logan Drive, Mosgiel, as ‘Rosella
Place’,
c) Names two new roads off 21 & 89 Cemetery Road, East Taieri
as ‘McCarthy
Court’ and ‘Petre Lane’.
|
BACKGROUND
2 The
DCC Road Naming Policy provides the framework for timely and consistent naming
of roads that reflect the identity of the local community. For reference, the
DCC Road Naming Policy and Procedure can be accessed on the DCC website at www.dunedin.govt.nz/road-naming.
3 The
Road Naming Policy requires staff to consult with Community Boards where road
names are proposed for Community Board areas. The Road Naming Policy notes that
the role of a Community Board is to support community consultation by ensuring
that all stakeholders are identified and consulted with, and that road naming
proposals appropriately represent community requirements. Community Boards do
not have a decision-making role and can only support or not support proposals.
4 According
to the Road Naming Policy, if a Community Board does not support an option
presented by staff, the applicant can either amend the proposal or ask for it
to be put to ISCOM for consideration.
5 Relevant
Community Boards have been engaged regarding the proposed road names for the
three developments and results are detailed below:
· West
Harbour Community Board supports naming a new private way off Stevenson Avenue,
Sawyers Bay, as ‘Shirley Lane’ rather than ‘Spence
Lane’.
· Mosgiel-Taieri
Community Board supports naming a new road off Irwin Logan Drive, Mosgiel as ‘Rosella
Place’ rather than ‘Rosie Ella Place’ or ‘Ivy
Place’.
· Mosgiel
Taieri Community board has been informed of the selection of the pre-approved
names ‘McCarthy Court’ and ‘Petre Lane’
from the Road Naming Register, for Cemetery Road, East Taieri and has not
raised any concerns with staff.
DISCUSSION
Private Way-105 & 107
Stevenson Avenue, Sawyers Bay
6 The
applicant proposed ‘Spence Lane’ as the preferred option and
‘Shirley Lane’ as the alternative road name.
7 ‘Spence
Lane’ refers to the family that owns the land being developed. The
applicant notes that three generations of the family have lived within and
contributed to the local community.
8 ‘Shirley
Lane’ has a personal meaning to the family. The name refers to a member
of the family who was a dynamic member of the community and who passed away 24
years ago.
9 The
two names proposed, ‘Spence Lane’ and ‘Shirley Lane’ are considered by staff to meet the
appropriateness criteria of the Road Naming Policy. The Road Naming
Policy places less weight on the appropriateness criteria with respect to
private ways. The road name assessments are presented as attachments A and B,
and the map as attachment C.
10 At
its meeting of 11 August 2021, the West Harbour Community Board supported the
naming of the private way as ‘Shirley Lane’ over
‘Spence Lane’. The Community Board believed the latter name
could be considered to refer to living persons and was not satisfied it
complied with the Road Naming Policy.
11 Staff
are satisfied that ‘Spence Lane’ is an acceptable name for a
private way as its primary intent is to reflect the generational links of the
family to the West Harbour, but staff also acknowledge the West Harbour
Community Board’s concerns.
12 ‘Shirley
Lane’ is proposed over ‘Spence Lane’ because it is acceptable
to the developer, has the support of the West Harbour Community Board and most
clearly complies with the Road Naming Policy.
New Road-60 Irwin Logan
Drive
13 The
Gladstone Heights subdivision at 60 Irwin Logan Drive is an extension of the
Gladstone Oaks residential development. A new stage of the development was
approved by consent SUB-2011-24/2 and the developer wishes to name a new road coming
off Irwin Logan Drive. (See Attachment G-Map Irwin Logan Drive). The naming of
this road is considered critical as titles are soon to be issued pursuant to
section 224c of the Resource Management Act 1991.
14 Other
roads within the Gladstone Oaks development have been named after the land
owner’s family members, including ‘Prudence Place’,
‘Irwin Logan Drive’ and ‘Jocelyn Way’. The applicant proposes to continue this established
naming theme.
15 The
applicant has chosen three options that have personal significance to the
family. The options are ‘Rosella Place’ (as the
preferred name of the developer), ‘Rosie Ella Place’ (as the
first alternative of the developer) and ‘Ivy Place’ (as the second alternative of the developer). Road name
assessments are presented as attachments D, E and F.
16 The
applicant advised that the names ‘Rosella’ and ‘Rosie
Ella’ refer to two living family members and ‘Ivy’ refers to
a family member who passed away 28 years ago. Of the
three options proposed, only ‘Ivy’ (the least preferred option of
the applicant), fully complies with the appropriateness criteria of the DCC
Road Naming Policy.
17 Both
‘Rosella’ and ‘Rosie Ella’ are an amalgamation of two
names into a single word, meaning that they do not fully comply with the appropriateness
criteria of the DCC Road Naming Policy which seeks to avoid the use of
amalgamated words because they can be confusing. However, neither of these
names is likely to cause confusion.
18 The
suffix proposed for all three options is ‘Place’ which is
considered appropriate according the characteristics for the type of road
created.
19 The
option of ‘Rosella Place’, as the preferred
option of the developer and the Community Board, is recommended for approval.
Alternatively, ‘Rosie Ella Place’, the developer’s second
preference or ‘Ivy Place’ which is the developer’s least
preferred option but the only name that is fully compliant with the Road Naming
Policy, could also be approved.
New road and private way-21
& 89 Cemetery Road East Taieri
20 The
developer has chosen two road names from the Road Name Register for roads in
this subdivision. The names are ‘McCarthy Court’ and ‘Petre Lane’. These names have been pre-approved and
meet the spelling and appropriateness criteria of the Road Naming Policy. Road
names assessments and map of the development are provided as Attachments H, I
and J.
21 ‘McCarthy
Court’ refers to Mary Ann McCarthy (1866-1933), who was born and educated
in Dunedin. Having trained as a teacher she taught in different schools in the
south. She was a member of the New Zealand Women’s Christian Temperance
Union and from 1906 she became increasingly involved in promoting gender
equality, and after 1919, world peace and internationalism. Mary McCarthy
devoted the rest of her life to political activity and died in Dunedin on 13
October 1933.
22 ‘Petre Lane’ refers to Francis William Petre
(1847-1918), who was a New Zealand-born architect based in Dunedin. He was an
exponent of the Gothic revival style. Petre designed many churches, schools,
public buildings and private houses. His largest projects were three of New
Zealand's cathedrals: St Joseph's Cathedral in Dunedin, the Cathedral of the
Sacred Heart in Wellington and the Cathedral of the Blessed Sacrament in
Christchurch, each distinguished by a different architectural style. St
Joseph's Cathedral in Dunedin is seen as an example of the French Gothic
Revival.
23 The
Mosgiel-Taieri Community Board has been updated on the preference of this
developer to name the new roads with options from the Road Name Register. The
community board has not raised any concerns regarding the selection of these
names.
24 The
naming of these two roads was considered urgent because titles had been issued
pursuant to section 224c of the Resource Management Act 1991 and several
properties were ready to be sold. In order to avoid landowners being
inconvenienced and faced with the uncertainty of having no street address, and
because the names had been pre-approved by Council, addresses were issued in
September 2021, with the provisional names of ‘McCarthy Court’ and
‘Petre Lane’.
Summary

25 The
table presented below provides a summary of the road names proposed by the
property developer, and their compliance with the Road Naming Policy.
