1. Brief Summary
1.1 The
purpose of this report is to enable the Submissions Committee to consider
submitting on several Council consultation processes, namely:
1.1.1 The
Christchurch City Council Draft Annual Plan 2022-23
1.1.2 Opting
out of kerbside collection and targeted rate.
1.1.3 Proposal
to increase rates on vacant central city land.
1.1.4 Proposal
for a new Policy on Māori freehold land.
1.2 All four consultation processes opened on 11 March 2022 and close on
18 April 2022.
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu
That the Waimāero
Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board Submissions Committee:
1. Considers making a submission to the Council
on behalf of the Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board regarding the
following consultations:
a. The Christchurch City Council Draft Annual
Plan 2022-23
b. Opting out of kerbside collection and targeted
rate.
c. Proposal to increase rates on vacant central
city land.
d. Proposal for a new Policy on Māori
freehold land.
3. Further Information
3.1 The Christchurch City Council Draft Annual Plan 2022-23 outlines
what the Council will spend on projects and day-to-day services over the next
financial year and how they'll be financed. Further information can be found
here: https://ccc.govt.nz/the-council/haveyoursay/show/494
3.2 The proposal for opting out of kerbside collection and the
associated targeted rate is to assist those who chose not to use the Council
kerbside collection service. Currently, all developed properties pay the
targeted rate for kerbside collection whether they use the service or not. The
proposal is to establish a process so that property owners who choose not to
use the kerbside collection do not pay the targeted rate, subject to certain
conditions. Further information can be found here: https://ccc.govt.nz/the-council/haveyoursay/show/490
3.3 The proposal to increase rates on vacant central land is to
introduce a “City Vacant” differential for the general rate that
would apply to vacant land in parts of the Central City Business Zone and the
Central City Mixed Use (South Frame) Zone from 1 July 2022. In the future the
coverage area of this proposal might be extended beyond the central city to
other areas in the Christchurch District with high concentrations of unimproved
vacant land. Further information can be found here: https://ccc.govt.nz/the-council/haveyoursay/show/495
3.4 The proposal to adopt a new policy on Māori freehold land is in
response to changes in legislation. Historically, unused Māori freehold land has technically incurred rates but in
practice the Council has provided a rates remission. The changes will provide
more certainty by confirming that this land is non-rateable. The proposed
Policy will also reflect new statutory requirements for the Council to:
· Provide that the Council's Māori Freehold Land Policy must
support the principles set out in the Preamble to Te Ture Whenua Maori (TTWM)
Act 1993,
· Consider remission of rates for Māori freehold land under
development.
