1. Purpose of Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo
1.1 The Local Government Act 2002 prescribes the processes by which Community Boards must elect their chairpersons and deputy chairpersons. This report describes the alternative processes available, one of which must be adopted.
1.2 The report has been written following the resignation of the current Community Board Chairperson, Reuben Davidson.
1.3 On 5 July 2023 Reuben Davidson resigned as the Chairperson of Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board. Reuben has advised that he will continue as a member of the Community Board.
2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu
That the Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board:
1. Receive the information in the report.
2. Appoint a Board member to act as Chairperson whilst the election of the Community Board Chairperson is enacted by the Board.
3. Adopt, by resolution, whether it will use System A or System B to elect a Chairperson.
4. Proceed to elect a Community Board Chairperson.
3. Legal Considerations
Introduction
3.1 The provisions of Schedule 7 of the Local Government Act 2002 apply to Community Boards (with a small number of exclusions), with necessary modifications as if the boards were local authorities. Clause 21 of Schedule 7 requires that each Community Board, at its first meeting, must elect one of its members to be its Chairperson and another to be Deputy Chairperson.
3.2 The manner in which a Community Board is to elect these positions is prescribed in Clause 25 of Schedule 7. It provides that the Community Board must determine by resolution that the Chairperson and Deputy Chairperson be elected or appointed by using one of the following systems of voting:
System A
3.3 Requires that a person is elected or appointed if he or she receives the votes of a majority of the members of the Community Board present and voting; and
3.4 Has the following characteristics:
3.4.1 There is a first round of voting for all candidates; and
3.4.2 If no candidate is successful in that round there is a second round of voting from which the candidate with the fewest votes in the first round is excluded; and
3.4.3 If no candidate is successful in the second round there is a third, and if necessary subsequent, round of voting from which, each time, the candidate with the fewest votes in the previous round is excluded; and
3.4.4 In any round of voting, if two or more candidates tie for the lowest number of votes, the person excluded from the next round is resolved by lot.
System B
3.5 Requires that a person is elected or appointed if he or she receives more votes than any other candidate; and
3.6 Has the following characteristics:
3.6.1 There is only one round of voting; and
3.6.2 If two or more candidates tie for the most votes, the tie is resolved by lot.
Practical application of clause 25
3.7 Each Community Board must first determine, by resolution, which system of voting it will use, that is System A or System B.
3.8 Nominations for the position of Chairperson and Deputy Chairperson are called for.
3.9 If there is only one candidate then the Community Board may resolve that that person be elected.
3.10 If there is more than one candidate the Community Board must then put the matter to a vote according to the system it has adopted. The Community Board members are then asked to vote on each candidate.
3.11 The following examples may be useful to illustrate two of the system:
System A
Example 1
Three nominations are received and upon the votes being counted the result is: A (5) B (2) C (1). In this case A is elected to the relevant position.
Example 2
Three nominations are received and upon the votes being counted the result is:
A (3) B (3) C (2). In this case no candidate is successful so a second round of voting is held for candidates A and B. The lowest polling candidate, C, is excluded.
System B
Example 1
Three nominations are received and upon the votes being counted the result is: A (5) B (2) C (1). In this case A is elected to the relevant position.
Example 2
Three nominations are received and upon the votes being counted the result is:
A (4) B (4) C (0). In this case a lot is held to determine who between A and B will be elected to the relevant position.

Issue or Opportunity / Ngā take, Ngā Whaihua rānei
3.1 Summer
with your Neighbours 2023 - 24
Summer with your Neighbours (formerly known as Neighbourhood Week) is
celebrated annually from October through to March. Individuals and
community groups hold a variety of small neighbourhood events in their local
areas. This helps neighbours and communities to get to know each other
and enhances community and neighbourhood safety as a result. A
contribution towards approved events is provided on return of receipts.
3.2 ANZAC
Day 2024 - Wreaths and Diamond Harbour contribution
Each year ANZAC Day citizens' ceremonies are organised and held on 25 April in
Banks Peninsula - typically in Lyttelton, Diamond Harbour, Akaroa and Little
River. These ceremonies include parades of local service groups, speeches and
laying of wreaths. A wreath is laid at each ceremony by Board members on
behalf of the Board. Despite recent ANZAC commemorations having been modified
or cancelled due to COVID-19 requirements, this is a long-standing
tradition. It provides an opportunity for the Board to show its support,
and recognise the sacrifices that have been made in these small communities. An
annual grant is allocated towards commemorations in Diamond Harbour.
3.3 Community
Service Awards 2024
Community Service Awards are awarded to individuals and/or groups in recognition
of significant voluntary service. In the Banks Peninsula area, these are held
triennially at a single event usually in June; and have alternated between the
Lyttelton/Mt Herbert and Akaroa/Wairewa subdivisions. The last Awards were held
at Otoromiro Hotel Governors Bay (Lyttelton Subdivision).
Strategic Alignment/ Te Rautaki Tīaroaro
Decision Making Authority / Te Mana Whakatau
3.5 The Community Board has the delegated authority to determine the allocation of the Discretionary Response Fund for each community.

· Legal challenges or Environment Court challenges against the Council, Council Controlled organisations or Community Board decisions
· Projects or initiatives that change the scope of a Council project or that will lead to ongoing operational costs to the Council (though Community Boards can recommend to the Council that it consider a grant for this purpose).
Assessment of Significance and Engagement / Te Aromatawai Whakahirahira
3.6 The decisions in this report are of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.
3.7 The level of significance was determined by the number of people affected and/or with an interest.
3.8 Due to the assessment of low significance, no further community engagement and consultation is required.
Discussion / Kōrerorero
3.9 The amount available for allocation in the 2023/24 Banks Peninsula Discretionary Response Fund is dependent on the Board approved allocations for its 2023/24 Strengthening Communities Fund. The decision meeting is scheduled for the Board's 7 August meeting.
3.10 The 2023/24 Banks Peninsula community grants budget is $199,233. Please note that this amount does not include any carry-forward from the 2022-23 year as this figure is still being finalised.

A meeting was held on 15 June 2023 with members of the Allandale Reserve Committee and Community Facilities to consider options for the future of the Hall in the short, medium and long-term. A member of the Coastal Hazards Planning team explained that Allandale has been selected as one of the six priority locations to focus on due current and projected coastal hazard impacts. It is projected that Allandale Hall will be impacted by coastal flooding and tidally influenced groundwater once the sea level has risen by around 40cm or sooner under particularly extreme conditions (storms). Adaptation planning in Allandale will involve looking at the shorefront landfill and Allandale Hall amongst other public assets. He recommended that any medium to long-term planning around the Hall should consider sea level rise. |
