Reports

18     Review of the Camping Control Bylaw 2015

 

A report from Parks and Recreation advised that the Freedom Camping Act 2011 allowed local authorities to make bylaws to restrict (but not prohibit in its entirety) freedom camping to certain areas, including with conditions, if necessary to protect the area, protect the health and safety of people who may visit the area, or to protect access to the area.

The purpose of the report was to recommend a Special Consultative Procedure to determine the community's views on whether Council's current approach to the provision of freedom camping opportunities in Dunedin should remain consistent or change.

The draft Statement of Proposal sought feedback on whether Council should provide for freedom camping in self-contained vehicles only or continue to provide options for non-self-contained campers and if supported, whether additional sites should be made available.

The General Manager Infrastructure and Networks and the Recreation Planning and Facilities Manager responded to questions and provided further explanation on the proposed bylaw.

 

Moved (Cr Mike Lord/Cr Kate Wilson):

That the Council:

 

a)     Approves the draft Statement of Proposal for the purposes of a Special Consultative Procedure under Section 83 of the Local Government Act 2002.

b)     Notes that staff will report the outcome of the public consultation and final draft Camping Control Bylaw for adoption by Council in 2017 prior to the 2017/18 camping season.

19     Art and Creativity in Infrastructure Policy

 

A report from Community and Planning presented, for adoption a draft Art and Creativity in Infrastructure Policy (the Policy) that aimed to ensure artwork or other creativity was integral to Dunedin City Council (DCC) infrastructure projects and operational activity.  The Policy responded to both a Council resolution and the ambition adopted through Ara Toi Otepoti – Our Creative Future (Dunedin's Arts and Culture Strategy) to embed creativity within city decision-making and activity, supporting the vision of being one of the world's great small cities.

The Policy sought to ensure artwork and creativity was integrated in relevant DCC infrastructure projects and operational activity through a transparent process and to support good quality and cost effective outcomes for the city. 

The Policy covered the types of infrastructure to be considered, principles for consideration, responsibilities, engagement, funding, ownership, and care and maintenance.

The General Manager Strategy and Governance, Corporate Policy Manager and Community Advisor Arts responded to questions and provided information on  successful models in place and advised that staff were looking into how the policy would be best implemented to achieve the desired outcomes. 

 

Moved (Cr Aaron Hawkins/Cr Kate Wilson):

That the Council:

 

a)     Adopts the Art and Creativity in Infrastructure Policy.

Motion carried (CNL/2017/136)

 

20     Adoption of the 2017/18 Annual Plan

Moved (Cr Mike Lord/Cr Damian Newell):

That the Council:

 

a)     Adopts the 2017/18 Annual Plan. 

b)     Authorises the Council's Chief Executive Officer, in consultation with the Mayor, to make any minor editorial changes resulting from the final quality checks that will occur prior to the final printing of the document.

n)        Tourism/Economic Development Rate

A targeted rate for Tourism/Economic Development, set under section 16 of the Local Government (Rating) Act 2002, assessed on a differential basis as follows:

·           0.0143 cents in the dollar (including GST) of capital value on every rating unit in the "commercial" category.

·           0.0143 cents in the dollar (including GST) of capital value on every rating unit in the "commercial Strath Taieri" category.

·           0.0013 cents in the dollar (including GST) of capital value on the Forsyth Barr Stadium.

Differential Matters and Categories

b)     Adopt the following differential categories for the 2017/18 financial year.

The differential categories are determined in accordance with the Council's land use codes.  The Council's land use codes are based on the land use codes set under the Rating Valuation Rules 2008 and are set out in Attachment A.  In addition, the Council has established categories for residential institutions, residential heritage bed and breakfasts, the Forsyth Barr Stadium, churches, and schools.

o)        Differentials Based on Land Use

The Council uses this matter to:

·           Differentiate the General rate.

·           Differentiate the Community Services rate.

·           Differentiate the Private Street Lighting rate.

·           Differentiate the Fire Protection rate.

·           Differentiate the Kerbside Recycling rate.

·           Differentiate the Tourism/Economic Development rate.

The differential categories based on land use are:

·           Residential – includes all rating units used for residential purposes including single residential, multi-unit residential, multi-use residential, residential special accommodation, residential communal residence dependant on other use, residential bach/cribs, residential carparking and residential vacant land.

·           Residential Heritage Bed and Breakfasts – includes all rating units meeting the following description:

·        Bed and breakfast establishments; and

·        Classified as commercial for rating purposes due to the number of bedrooms (greater than four); and

·        Either:

·       the majority of the establishment is at least 80 years old, or

·       the establishment has Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Registration, or

·       the establishment is a Dunedin City Council Protected Heritage Building as identified in the District Plan; and

·        The bed and breakfast owner lives at the facility.

·           Lifestyle – includes all rating units with Council's land use codes 2, 20, 21, 22 and 29.

·           Commercial Strath Taieri – includes all rating units not otherwise categorised as Residential, Residential Heritage Bed and Breakfasts, Lifestyle, or Farmland in the Strath Taieri area.

·           Commercial – includes all rating units with land uses not otherwise categorised as Residential, Residential Heritage Bed and Breakfasts, Lifestyle, Commercial Strath Taieri, Farmland or Forsyth Barr Stadium.

·           Farmland - includes all rating units used solely or principally for agricultural or horticultural or pastoral purposes.

·           Forsyth Barr Stadium – this includes land at 130 Anzac Avenue, Dunedin, Assessment 4026695, Valuation reference 27190-01403.

p)        Differentials Based on Land Use and Provision or Availability of   Service

The Council uses these matters to differentiate the drainage rate and the commercial drainage rate.

The differential categories based on land use are:

·           Residential – includes all rating units used for residential purposes including single residential, multi-unit residential, multi-use residential, residential special accommodation, residential communal residence dependant on other use, residential bach/cribs, residential carparking and residential vacant land.

·           Lifestyle - includes all rating units with Council's land use codes 2, 20, 21, 22 and 29.

·           Farmland - includes all rating units used solely or principally for agricultural or horticultural or pastoral purposes.

·           Commercial – includes all rating units with land uses not otherwise categorised as Residential, Residential Heritage Bed and Breakfasts, Lifestyle, Farmland, Residential Institutions, Forsyth Barr Stadium, Churches or Schools.

·           Forsyth Barr Stadium – this includes land at 130 Anzac Avenue, Dunedin, Assessment 4026695, Valuation reference 27190-01403.

·           Residential Heritage Bread and Breakfasts – includes all rating units meeting the following description:

·        Bed and breakfast establishments; and

·        Classified as commercial for rating purposes due to the number of bedrooms (greater than four); and

·        Either:

·       the majority of the establishment is at least 80 years old or

·       the establishment has Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Registration or

·       the establishment is a Dunedin City Council Protected Heritage Building as identified in the District Plan; and

·        The bed and breakfast owner lives at the facility.

·           Residential Institutions - includes only rating units with the Council's land use codes 95 and 96.

·           Churches – includes all rating units used for places of religious worship.

·           Schools - includes only rating units used for schools that do not operate for profit.

The differential categories based on provision or availability of service are:

·           Connected – any rating unit that is connected to a public sewerage drain.

·           Serviceable – any rating unit that is not connected to a public sewerage drain but is capable of being connected to the sewerage system (being a property situated within 30 metres of a public drain).

q)        Differentials Based on Provision or Availability of Service

The Council uses this matter to differentiate the water rates.

The differential categories based on provision or availability of service are:

·           Connected – any rating unit that is supplied by the water supply system.

·           Serviceable – any rating unit that is not supplied but is capable of being supplied by the water supply system (being a rating unit situated within 100 metres of the nearest water supply).

Minimum Rates

c)     Approves that where the total amount of rates payable in respect of any rating unit is less than $5.00 including GST, the rates payable in respect of the rating unit shall be such amount as the Council determines but not exceeding $5.00 including GST.

Low Value Rating Units

d)     Approves that rating units with a capital value of $3,500 or less will only be charged the general rate.

Land Use Codes

e)     Approves that the land use codes attached to the report are adopted as the Council's land use codes for the purpose of the rating method.

Separately Used or Inhabited Part of a Rating Unit

f)     Adopts the following definition of a separately used or inhabited part of a rating unit:

"A separately used or inhabited part of a rating unit includes any portion inhabited or used by the owner/a person other than the owner, and who has the right to use or inhabit that portion by virtue of a tenancy, lease, licence, or other agreement.

This definition includes separately used parts, whether or not actually occupied at any particular time, which are provided by the owner for rental (or other form of occupation) on an occasional or long term basis by someone other than the owner.

For the purpose of this definition, vacant land and vacant premises offered or intended for use or habitation by a person other than the owner and usually used as such are defined as 'used'.

For the avoidance of doubt, a rating unit that has a single use or occupation is treated as having one separately used or inhabited part."

Lump Sum Contributions

g)     Approves that no lump sum contributions will be sought for any targeted rate.

Rating by Instalments

h)     Approves the following schedule of rates to be collected by the Council, payable by four instalments.

The City is divided into four areas based on Valuation Roll Numbers, as set out below:
