2. Delegate authority to the Community Governance Manager and the Community Board Chairperson to amend the ordinary meeting schedule, as required.
3. Note the holding of Board briefings will take place on alternate Thursdays at 4pm.
4. Delegate authority to the Community Board Chairperson and Deputy Chairperson, in consultation with Board members, to decide whether to make submissions.
5. Delegate authority to the Community Board Chairperson and Deputy Chairperson, in consultation with Board members, to approve the final submissions.
3. Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau
3.1 The officer recommendation in this report is for Board meetings be held at 4pm on the Thursday the week after the Council meeting each month with the meeting being a full business meeting. In addition to the decision making Board meetings, briefings are proposed to be scheduled monthly on alternate Thursdays at 4pm, or at other times as required, to provide an opportunity for Board members and staff to receive information and have an informal discussion on issues where no decision is required at the time.
Submissions
3.2 The officer recommendation in this report, for the Board to delegate authority to the Chairperson and Deputy Chairperson, in consultation with Board members, to decide whether to make submissions and approve the final submissions, has been developed based on the below:
3.2.1 The ability to decide to make a submission in a timely manner, rather than at the next Board meeting when consultation on the matter may have closed
3.2.2 The ability to prepare the submission without holding a public Submissions Committee. Under the Local Government Act 2002, a committee meeting must be publicly advertised, which may delay the meeting until after consultation has closed.
4. Context / Background / Te Horopaki
4.1 The officer recommendation in this report for the ordinary meeting schedule from February 2023 to September 2025 has been developed based on a number of factors:
4.1.1 The holding of one ordinary Board meeting in each calendar month
4.1.2 The ability for the Board to engage with the community outside of formal Board meetings
4.1.3 Consideration of other commitments on the Council calendar, e.g. Council meetings, Recess Weeks.
Submissions
4.2 Clause 30, Schedule 7 of the Local Government Act 2002 inter alia, provides that community boards may appoint committees, subcommittees or other subordinate decision-making bodies and joint committees considered appropriate. Also, clause 32(3) of the same schedule provides for community boards to delegate powers to a committee.
4.3 A committee appointed by a community board is subject in all things to the control of the local authority [read community board], and must carry out all general and special directions of the community board given in relation to the committee.
4.4 The relevant requirements for appointing a committee are:
· The minimum number of members is three, with a quorum of two, one of whom must be an elected member, or the quorum can be a greater number, as determined by the community board.
· At least one member of the committee must be an elected member of the community board.
· The members of a committee may, but need not be, elected community board members.
· A community board or committee may appoint to a committee or subcommittee a person who is not a member of the community board if, in the opinion of the board, that person has the skills, attributes or knowledge that will assist the work of the committee.
· A community board may appoint a member of a committee to be the chairperson of the committee, or if a chairperson is not appointed then the power of appointment may be exercised by the committee.
4.5 The previous Waikuru Linwood-Central-Heathcote Community Board established a Submissions Committee to prepare and approve submissions.
4.6 The previous Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere Community Board did not establish any committees, subcommittees or other subordinate decision-making bodies and joint committees. The previous Board decided whether to make submissions at Board meetings, and then delegated authority to the Chairperson and Deputy Chairperson to approve the final submissions.
4.7 This report proposes delegating authority to the Chairperson and Deputy Chairperson, in consultation with Board members, to decide whether to make submissions and approve the final submissions for the primary purpose of providing the Board with the opportunity to make timely submissions.

Sally-Ann Marshall, Traffic Engineer sallyann.marshall@ccc.govt.nz |
General Manager Pouwhakarae: |
Jane Davis, General Manager Infrastructure, Planning & Regulatory Services (jane.davis@ccc.govt.nz) |
1. Purpose of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo
1.1 The purpose of this report is for the Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere-Heathcote Community Board to consider options to improve road safety at the cycle lane at #426 Port Hills Road. This report has been written following requests from local residents to address safety issues caused by parked vehicles obscuring visibility of downhill traffic, especially cyclists, in this location.
1.2 The decisions in this report are of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by the low level of impact and low number of people affected by the recommended decision.
1.3 The community engagement and consultation outlined in this report reflect the assessment.
1.4 The recommended option is to install No Stopping restrictions in accordance with Attachment A.
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu
That the Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere-Heathcote Community Board:
1. Approves, pursuant to Clause 7 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2017, that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time generally in accordance with that shown on the plan provided as Attachment A to this report (‘426 Port Hills Road, Proposed No Stopping Restriction’, Plan TG142038, dated 09/06/2022).
2. Revoke any previous resolutions pertaining to traffic controls made pursuant to any bylaw to the extent that they are in conflict with the traffic controls described in resolutions 1 above.
3. Approves that these resolutions 1 to 2 take effect when parking signage and/or road markings that evidence the restrictions described in the staff report are in place (or removed in the case of revocations).
3. Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau
3.1 Local residents have raised safety concerns relating to visibility along this section of Port Hills Road, especially of cyclists. This is due to vehicles being parked in the space between #426 and #375 Port Hills Road obscuring visibility of oncoming downhill traffic and cyclists in this location.
3.2 It is recommended to install No Stopping restrictions in accordance with Attachment A. The length of No Stopping in this option is based on engineering judgement as the minimum required to improve safety at this location. This would also extend the No Stopping restriction to end where the existing bike lane markings are installed.
3.3 Options within this report have been assessed against relevant industry-standard design guidance including the sight distance requirements of Council’s Infrastructure Design Standard.
4. Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa
4.1 The recommendations in this report are consistent with the anticipated outcomes of the Traffic Safety and Efficiency Service Plan in the Council's Long Term Plan (2021 - 2031).

· Addresses community concerns over road safety at this location.
· Reduces the risk of a crash by improving sightlines at this location.

· Removes on street parking directly outside two residential properties.
5. Detail Te Whakamahuki
5.1 Under the Christchurch City Council Road Classification Map, Port Hills Road is classified as a Minor Arterial Road.

5.3 There are low residential parking demands in the area.
5.4 There have been no reported crashes on this section of Port Hills Road in the last five years.
5.5 Approval is required by the Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere-Heathcote Community Board.
5.6 If approved, the recommendations will be implemented within the current financial year (generally around four weeks after the contractor receives the request, but this is subject to other factors such as resourcing and prioritisation beyond Council’s control).
Community Views and Preferences
5.7 Two affected property owners were advised of the recommended option by letter, one owner being the person raising the issue. Neither party responded.
5.8 The Team Leader Parking Compliance supports the preferred option.
5.9 The do nothing option is inconsistent with community requests to improve visibility in this location.

Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere-Heathcote Community Board 10 November 2022 |

1. Purpose of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo
1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek the Community Board’s approval to grant an electricity easement in gross to Orion New Zealand Limited over an area of Charlesworth Reserve to provide lighting along the MCR Rapanui Shagrock Section 3b cycleway.
1.2 This report has been written at the request of the Parks Unit and to obtain the necessary approval to formalise the occupation of the electricity easement over the Orion infrastructural asset.
1.3 Staff notes due to the shovel-ready project funding timelines imposed by NZTA and also contractor availability the underground cable has been installed already at Council’s request.
1.4 The lighting will improve the visibility and safety of users along this cycleway route during low lighting conditions therefore staff support the granting of the electricity easement and recommend that the Community Board exercise its delegation to proceed.
1.5 The Council has extensively engaged with local Rūnanga via Mahaanui Kurataiao Ltd to ensure their concerns, views and suggestions are incorporated into the overall MCR Rapanui Shagrock cycleway project including the public, Urban Development and Transport Committee and the Avon-Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust. Overall support has been received in this regard.
1.6 The decision in this report is of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by considering the easement’s impact on residents and users of the Charlesworth Reserve.
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu
That the Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere-Heathcote Community Board:
1. Subject to the consent of the Minister of Conservation, approves under Section 48 of the Reserves Act 1977, the granting of an electricity easement in gross to Orion New Zealand Limited, to convey electricity as defined in the easement plan referred in clause 5.3 of the report below:
a) Section 1 Survey Office Plan 20079 and comprised in Record of Title 76235, known as Charlesworth Reserve.
2. Recommends that the Chief Executive, using the Council’s delegated authority from the Minister of Conservation, consents to grant the easement proposed in 1 above.
3. Authorises the Manager Property Consultancy with the consent of the Minister of Conservation to finalise documentation and implement the easement.
3. Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau
3.1 Orion has installed their underground cables at the Council’s request to provide street lighting for users of this cycle route through Charlesworth Reserve.
3.2 The lighting will improve safety and visibility for cyclists using the cycleway route in low light conditions. The granting of an easement to Orion is a standard low-risk property right process, which is a routine Council process and, in this case, is not an exception.
3.3 The easement will provide legal access to Orion to carry out repairs and maintenance but also identify where their services are located underground

4.1 The alternative is not to create the proposed easement – Not Recommended.
4.2 The disadvantages of this outcome would be:
4.2.1 Orion will not have legal access to maintain its underground assets within the Charlesworth Reserve.
4.2.2 The presence of Orion’s infrastructure will not be identified in the relevant titles.
4.2.3 It would not reflect best practice, which is for Council to register easements over its land.
4.2.4 Orion has already completed the works at Council request, on the assurance an easement would follow later to formalise its occupation.
4.3 There is no advantage to not granting the electricity easements to Orion.
5. Detail Te Whakamahuki
5.1 The Council requested Orion install underground cabling in order to provide street lighting to improve the visibility and safety of the users of this cycleway route during low light conditions.
5.2 In order for Orion to maintain services an electricity easement to be registered on the property title. This allows Orion to convey electricity over the land and enable legal protection and access to their infrastructural assets, in perpetuity.
5.3 The indicative easement plan is shown in Attachment A – Location of easement over the reserve, where the underground cables will be approximately laid (indicated below through a yellow line) which requires additional light. Where the cycleway continues along legal road, lighting from the street lights can be used. The final easement area will be subject to survey and the easement instrument will be registered on the land title record.
Aerial view photo of subject land (part of Charlesworth Reserve) affected by the Orion Easement – Section 1 Survey Office Plan 20079 and comprised in Record of Title 76235 (6,330 m2), boundary bolded in yellow.
5.4 All costs associated with the creation of this easement will be paid by Council but reimbursed by the Crown as part of the shovel-ready cycling package however Orion will meet the repair and ongoing maintenance of the underground cables.
5.5 As the land is vested as a Recreation Reserve under the Reserves Act 1977, the Community Board must consider and approve this electricity easement request. A secondary delegation is required to be authorised, being the Minister of Conservation’s consent under Section 48 (1) (d) of the Reserves Act. The Board has the ability to record support for the Chief Executive to exercise the delegation on behalf of the Minister.
5.6 The decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:
5.6.1 Linwood-Central-Heathcote Community Board
6. Policy Framework Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā- Kaupapa here
Strategic Alignment Te Rautaki Tīaroaro
6.1 The granting of an easement to Orion over reserve land is consistent with Council Park’s Unit policies and practices.
6.2 This report supports the Council's Long Term Plan (2021 - 2031):
6.2.1 Activity: Transport
· Level of Service: 10.5.42 Increase the infrastructure provision for active and public modes - >= 585 kilometres (total combined length)
Policy Consistency Te Whai Kaupapa here
6.3 The decision is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies.
Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua
6.4 The reserve is identified as a site of Ngai Tahu Cultural Significance (Schedule of Nga Wai: 9.5.6.4 – ID 78) in the Christchurch District Plan (CDP).
6.5 Initial engagement with Rūnanga via Mahaanui Kurataiao Ltd (MKT) commenced February 2017 with early consideration of the Rapanui Major Cycle Route Section 3 discussed at the Te Ngāi Tūāhuriri Rūnanga Kaitiaki Portfolio hui held on the 22nd February 2017 based on the public consultation plans.
6.6 A cultural values report was commissioned, and additional engagement followed on 2 November 2017 at Tuahiwi Marae with the Kaitiaki Portfolio Holder representatives from MKT. This confirmed that the Rūnanga is supportive of the overall project. Their main concern is related to the mahinga kai and they would like to review existing values to understand the benefit of any works. It requested further detail on the ecological enhancement and the need for encroachment of the estuary edge. It was recommended that a site visit be undertaken to get an understanding of the existing sea wall condition.
6.7 A site visit was held on 30 November 2017 where it was suggested that a landowner meeting with Ihutai Trustees be held during January 2018.
6.8 A final meeting was held at Tuahiwi Marae on 25 January 2018 which discussed the proposed design with the Kaitiaki Portfolio Holder representatives from MKT. Ihutai and Kaitiaki outlined their support for water quality enhancement and restoration. The Rūnanga emphasised they do not wish to see any more of the estuary reclaimed than necessary and acknowledged the efforts made by the project team to reduce the width taken where possible (removal of the on-road cycle land and the reduction of road speed). The meeting concluded with confirmation that there is no opposition from the Rūnanga to the proposal.
6.9 Additional engagement with the Rūnanga was anticipated but given the proposed design change will remove the need to reclaim any area of the estuary along Humphreys Drive it was anticipated that they will be supportive of this change.
6.10 There was no feedback or opposition against the proposed easement through part of the Charlesworth Reserve for street level lighting purposes by local Rūnanga via Mahaanui Kurataiao Ltd.
6.11 The Council has engaged with the local Rūnanga via MKT to ensure their concerns, views and suggestions are incorporated into the MCR Rapanui Shagrock cycleway project.
6.12 Overall, they were supportive of this project subject to their recommendations to the Council.
Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi
6.13 There are no climate change factors within the easement process that Council needs to consider.
Accessibility Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Hunga Hauā
6.14 The creation of this new easement will not affect accessibility for the users or the visual impact.
7. Resource Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi
Capex/Opex / Ngā Utu Whakahaere
7.1 Cost to Implement – all costs are to be met by the Crown as part of the $220 million cycleway package, for which the Council has received a total grant of $125 million.
7.2 Maintenance/Ongoing costs - Ongoing cable maintenance to be met by Orion.
7.3 Funding Source – $125million funding grant as part of the cycleway package by the Crown.

1. Nature of Decision or Issue and Report Origin
1.1 The purpose of this report to seek approval from the Community Board to grant rights for Cashmere Estates residential development stage 3B to drain water over the adjoining council owned Local Purpose Utility Reserve as shown on the attached darft subdivision plan LT 583749
1.2 The origin is a request from developer arising from resource consent requirements of the subdivision.
1.3 The decisions in this report are of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by considering the impact of the new easements on local residents, users of the reserves and the reserves themselves.
1.4 This report has been written as a result of the Resource Consent conditions in RMA/2015/3550/3B and subdivision consent for LT 583749 attachment 2.
2. Officer Recommendations / Ngā Tūtohu
That the Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere-Heathcote Community Board:
1. Approve pursuant to Section 48 of the Reserves Act 1977, the granting of a right to drain water over Lots 515, 516 and 517 DP 515978 shown as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and J respectively on LT 5583749 in favour of the Christchurch City Council subject to
a. The consent of the Minister of Conservation or her delegate
b. All necessary statutory consents under but not limited to the Resource Management Act 1991 and Local Government Act 1974 in respect of LT 5583749 being obtained
2. Recommend that the Chief Executive, using the Council’s delegated authority from the Minister of Conservation, consents to the granting of a right to drain water over Lots 515, 516 and 517 DP 515978 shown as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and J respectively on LT 5583749 in favour of the Christchurch City Council.
Noting that:
a. Based on experience to date the standard council decision making processes to grant easements over reserves for future stage developments have not been agile enough to meet the commercial imperatives of the development.
b. That the easements are requirements arising from council approved resource consents.
3. Recommend that the Chief Executive, using the Council’s delegated authority from the Minister of Conservation, consent to the granting of easements that are required as part of the future stage subdivision consents for the Cashmere Estates staged subdivision.
4. Authorises the Manager Property Consultancy to manage and conclude all matters pertaining to the granting of easements over reserves that are required as part of the future stage subdivision consents for the Cashmere Estates staged subdivision.
3. Reason for Report Recommendations / Ngā Take mō te Whakatau
3.1 This is a procedural matter where the land owner (the Council) needs to approve the easements. It is a condition of resource consent RMA/2015/3550 and the stage 3B subdivisional approval that certain easements be granted over the utility reserves.
3.2 Under Part D – Sub Part 1 page 99 of the Delegations Register the Community Boards have been granted a delegation under section 48 of the Reserves Act 1977 to “Grant rights of way and other easements in accordance with this section”.
3.3 This is at least the third time that Cashmere Estates have sought decisions of this nature from the council that have required urgent “drop everything” attention both in terms of committing council resources and requiring late reports to agendas. It is therefore recommended given:
· The nature of the development having multiple future stages,
· The fact that it is surrounded by reserves refer attachment 1 referred to in Paragraph 5.3 below, and
· These easement requirements arise from the resource consent process terms and conditions with little discretion other to grant them.
That to meet the commercial time frames of the development that delegations for similar future decisions are granted to staff, refer officer recommendations 3. And 4. Above.
4. Alternative Options Considered / Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa
4.1 There are no alternative options, not granting these easements would be contrary to the resource consents already granted by the Council.
5. Detail / Te Whakamahuki
5.1 The site is the Cashmere Estates Subdivision. The artist’s impression below is the view looking to the south and shows both the residential sections and Council reserves including water retention sites. Shalamar Drive is on the left and Worsleys Road on the right.
5.2 These easements are part of the requirements of Stage 3B of a multistage subdivision development that has been ongoing for a number of years. The easement to be granted is a right to drain water over Lots 515, 516 and 517 DP 515978 shown as A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and H respectively on LT 5583749 in favour of in favour of the Christchurch City Council.
5.3 The subject parcels of land are held as Local Purpose (Utility) Reserves that were created for the provision of services. Attachment 1 to this report is a diagram showing the uniqueness of this subdivision in that the residential parcels of land (marked in yellow) are almost entirely surrounded by Council owned reserves (marked in red).
Section 48 of the Reserves Act 1977 provides that the Council, with the consent of the Minister of Conservation, may grant easements for rights-of-way and other services over reserve land. Under Section 48(2) of the Act, it is necessary for the Council to publically notify its intention to grant an easement except where the reserve is unlikely to be materially altered or permanently damaged, and the rights of the public in respect of the reserve are unlikely to be permanently affected (section 48(3) of the Act). In this case public notification is not required because the proposed infrastructure will not materially alter the utility reserves.
5.4 There are multiple new easements being created on LT 5583749 refer attachment 2 all of which have been approved as part of the regulatory consent for the subdivision.
5.5 The view of the developer is that the easements must be granted because it is a requirement of both the resource consent and subsequent subdivision consent that services be provided to the residential allotments.
5.6 The views of the wider community are not known because the resource consent did not require notification, however sale and purchase of new sections cannot proceed if the recommendations in this report are not adopted.
5.7 The decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:
5.7.1 Waihoro Spreydon-Cashmere-Heathcote Community Board.
6. Policy Framework Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā- Kaupapa here
Strategic Alignment /Te Rautaki Tīaroaro
6.1 Strong communities.
6.2 This report supports the Council's Long Term Plan (2021 - 2031):
6.2.1 Activity: Flood Protection and Control Works
· Level of Service: 14.1.6.1 Manage the risk of flooding to property and dwellings during extreme rain events: Annual reduction in the modelled number of properties predicted to be at risk of habitable floor level flooding of the primary dwelling in a 2% AEP Design Rainfall Event of duration 2 hours or greater excluding flooding that arises solely from private drainage - >=0 properties per annum on a rolling three-year average
Policy Consistency / Te Whai Kaupapa here
6.3 The decision is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies.
Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua
6.4 The decision does not involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land or a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does specifically impact Mana Whenua, their culture and traditions.
6.5 The decision does not involve a matter of interest to Mana Whenua and will not impact on our agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga
6.6 The decisions in this report are a result of resource consent conditions, the resource consent is non-notified, and engagement with Mana Whenua would have been considered as part of the Resource Management consent process.
Climate Change Impact Considerations / Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi
6.7 Climate change could increase water flow, these easements contribute to safe delivery of water to stormwater basins.
Accessibility Considerations / Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Hunga Hauā
6.8 There are no accessibility impacts.
7. Resource Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi
Capex/Opex / Ngā Utu Whakahaere
7.1 Cost to Implement - Nil, the applicant is meeting all infrastructure cost.
7.2 Maintenance/Ongoing costs - Insignificant because this new infrastructure is designed to require little or no ongoing cost. The Three Waters Unit is responsible for the maintenance and on-going costs for the infrastructure.
7.3 Funding Source - Three Waters Unit, Operational Budget.
Other / He mea anō
7.4 There are no other financial costs. This is a developer lead and funded process. This development is already incorporated in the council’s urban growth and infrastructure planning and through the resource consent process.
8. Legal Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture
Statutory power to undertake proposals in the report / Te Manatū Whakahaere Kaupapa
8.1 Reserves Act 1977.
Other Legal Implications / Ētahi atu Hīraunga-ā-Ture
8.2 There is no legal context, issue or implication relevant to this decision.
8.3 This report has not been reviewed and approved by the Legal Services Unit.
9. Risk Management Implications Ngā Hīraunga Tūraru
9.1 There would be a reputation risk to the Council if the recommendations in this report are not adopted because that would be contrary to the conditions in the Resource Consent. Roads could not be legalised, land drainage and other services could not be provided for and residential sections would be lost to the market.
9.2 Cashmere Estates is a multi-stage development. There have been multiple reports to the Community Board in relation to easements in this subdivision, all recommendations for easements over reserves in earlier stages of the development have been approved by the Community Board.
