11.   BP Meats Site 67 & 67A Rue Lavaud Akaroa - Future Use

Reference / Te Tohutoro:

23/2120393

Report of / Te Pou Matua:

Raymond Qu, Property Consultant, Property Consultancy (Raymond.Qu@ccc.govt.nz)
Danielle Yeoman, Planner Urban Regeneration (Danielle.Yeoman@ccc.govt.nz)
Angus Smith, Manager Property Consultancy, Property Consultancy Team (Angus.Smith@ccc.govt.nz)

Senior Manager / Pouwhakarae:

Jane Parfitt, Interim General Manager Infrastructure, Planning and Regulatory Services

 

 

1.   Purpose and Origin of Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       This report outlines a proposed process to determine the future use for the Council owned site at 67 Rue Lavaud, Akaroa. The site is otherwise referred to as the Banks Peninsula (BP) Meats site.

1.2       This report follows a late 2023 briefing of the Board.

1.3       Staff have prepared a process to determine the future use for the site and are looking for agreement from the Community Board to commence the process (refer to figure 1).

1.4       The decision in this report is of medium significance with reference to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.  The significance level was determined by how the holding strategy of the site would impact the community, the Council’s level of services and Tangata Whenua interests.

 

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board:

1.    Receive this report.

2.    Support staff initiating the proposed process, with key stages including:

·        Obtaining updated technical analysis for the site and updating Section D of the ‘2011 Akaroa Places and Spaces Plan’.

·        Preparing a consultation and engagement plan alongside Community Governance and Communications and Engagement staff.

·        Undertaking targeted and on-going engagement with Ōnuku Rūnanga, acknowledging their proposal for the site and noting the cultural importance of the area.

·        Developing site requirements/principles for refining the various site options to be consulted on.

·        Presenting the site options and engagement plan to the Community Board for a decision to consult.

·        Undertaking public consultation and reporting back to the Community Board regarding the consultation findings and next steps.

3.    Maintain the status quo holding strategy until staff report back on options for future use.

 

3.   Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1       Defining a process to confirm a future use for the site will ensure the following:

·    A pro-active approach: Allows the Council to be pro-active in determining a future use for the site rather than responding to unsolicited proposals and queries in a reactive, ad-hoc way.

·    Increased transparency: Removes ambiguity surrounding the site and provides a level of transparency from a community perspective.

·    Input from the community: Identifies appropriate opportunities to seek the community’s views and preferences for the future use of the land, building on the previous consultation undertaken.

 

4.   Alternative Options Considered Ētahi atu Kōwhiringa

4.1       Status quo - Continue to operate the site in its current form i.e. maintain existing buildings on the site and continue to lease the site for commercial and community uses.

Advantages          

Disadvantages

·    Cost Savings- The leasing income for the site adequately covers the site’s operational expenses. Continuing to operate the site in its current form requires minimal intervention and Council expenditure.

·    Reputational Risk- the site has been in Council ownership for over 20 years and there is some community concern regarding the underutilisation of the site. A lack of strategic planning only serves to enhance ambiguity regarding the future of the site and encourage further unsolicited proposals.

·    Minimal Disruption- to existing tenants including business owners and customers/users.

·    Lack of strategic planning- Continuation of the status quo does not enable an ability to front-foot potential risks and be responsive to opportunities which may emerge.

·    Doesn’t foreclose options: the site is a rare piece of flat land in the town; deciding on a future use now, will lock in a decision that may not provide the best long-term solution.

·    Poor amenity- the current site is largely vacant/underutilised and attracts rubbish dumping and unauthorised storage of vehicles and other miscellaneous items.

 

4.2       Disposal of the land – Sell the site directly, without further strategic planning, and let market forces determine the future use for the site.

Advantages          

Disadvantages

·    Financial Gain - Selling the site would provide a source of revenue, which could be used to fund other projects in Akaroa or address wider Council financial needs. This financial gain would contribute to the Council's overall financial health.

·    Lose Control of community-focused outcomes: - Once the land is sold or transferred, the Council would no longer have control over how the site is developed. This loss of control could result in the site being developed in a way which does not align with community or Council values and may lead to adverse effects on the community.

·    Optimizing Land Use - Disposal of the site may allow for more effective use of the site. For example, if the site is bought by a well-resourced and experienced developer, the site could be developed in an effective way which results in positive outcomes for the community and/or draws more investment to Akaroa.

·    Public Opposition - the site has been in Council ownership for over 20 years and there is strong community attachment to the site given its central location in the township. Sale of the site to the open market would likely remove opportunities for community input/engagement into the future use of the site. Community resistance may arise if stakeholders feel that the disposal decision was not adequately communicated or if the site is developed in a way which negatively impacts the community.

 

4.3       Future use to be informed by Master Plan process- Future use options for the site are paused until a community-led, strategic master plan for wider Akaroa is prepared.

Advantages

Disadvantages

·    Incorporate strategic planning - Defining future use options for the site within the context of a community-led master plan would ensure that development options for the site adequately consider strategic matters relating to the wider area. 

·    Increased Complexity, time and resources - Given the large, Akaroa-wide scope/project area, the development of a master plan would likely be a time-consuming, resource-intensive process and involve high levels of collaboration, data collection and analysis. It is possible that the development of site options for the BP Meats site would become buried within or reliant upon larger bodies of work and take many years to refine.  

·    High levels of community input - Future use options for the site informed by a community-led master plan process would enable a high level of community input to the strategic outcomes sought.

·    Requires significant community capacity - Given the current shortfall of Council resourcing, master plan development would require a high level of ownership,  leadership and professional expertise from the Akaroa community and limited ability to support with staff expertise, resources/funding. This may not provide for the right level of technical expertise to inform the project.

 

4.4       Strategic planning process to confirm future use/s – PREFERRED – Council staff undertake a process to update current knowledge of the site and potential uses within the Akaroa context and develop principles to guide site option decisions.

Advantages          

Disadvantages

·    Incorporate strategic planning – Key strategic planning aspects are able to be determined and provide context and guidance for the site, while keeping the scope focused towards the specific locality.

·    Time and resources – Some time and resource is required to progress this work. 

·    High levels of community input – The process provides several levels and types of community engagement to inform future site development options.

 

·    A pro-active approach – Allows the Council to be pro-active in determining a future use for the site. With an understanding of the site and potential future uses, Council will be able to front-foot potential risks and be responsive to opportunities which may emerge.

5.   Detail Te Whakamahuki

Proposed Process: 

5.1       The proposed process to determine future use options for the site is outlined in figure 1 below. Throughout the process there will be opportunities for public and targeted stakeholder engagement.

5.2       The first stage of the process has been initiated: updated technical information regarding the site and wider Akaroa has been commissioned from Property Economics.  It is noted that this technical information was first collected in 2010 as part of the Akaroa Places and Spaces Plan 2011 but is now a little out of date.

5.3       The updated technical and data will then be used to update the Akaroa Places and Spaces Plan (Section D) which sets out a comprehensive analysis of the BP meats site and uses evidence/data to consider various development options for the site. 

5.4       A consultation and engagement plan will be developed. It is noted that engagement has already commenced with Ōnuku Rūnanga with the Council currently engaging on a proposal put forward by the Rūnanga for the site. As shown in figure 1, engagement with Ōnuku will continue in parallel throughout the process.

5.5       Site requirements/principles and further information and targeted engagement with stakeholders will help to further refine the future use options for the site. These options and the consultation plan will then be presented to the Community Board for a decision to consult.

5.6       Following consultation, staff will report back to the Community Board on community feedback regarding the future development options. Next steps will then be determined and could include an EOI/RFP process, sale of the site (or part of the site), investigation of a joint development proposal or further pursual/ planning of a specific development option.

5.7       It is noted that there will be pieces of work occurring concurrently i.e. engagement planning occurring whilst the updated technical analysis is collected for the site.

5.8       The proposed process is considered best practice and will bring together technical data, coupled with community insights to ensure that the best range of land use options for the BP Meats site are identified and shared with the Community Board.

Background

5.9       Banks Peninsula District Council (BPDC) purchased the BP Meats site from Banks Peninsula Meats Limited in 2000 with the Council anticipating that the site be developed in a way that supports employment and economic growth in the Akaroa township. Ownership of the site was transferred to the Christchurch City Council following the amalgamation of Councils in 2006.

5.10    From 2004-2012, the Council (BPDC) engaged with Purple Peak Developments Limited (PPDL) and considered various development proposals. However, a community petition requested that the land remain in community ownership until further technical assessments regarding traffic and parking had been completed.

5.11    In 2010, comprehensive public/community engagement was undertaken as part of the Akaroa Places and Spaces Plan 2011.  ‘Section D’ of the Plan included a comprehensive analysis of the BP meats site and considered various development options for the site. The development options outlined in the Plan were informed by a technical business land assessment undertaken by Property Economics. Implementation of the Places and Spaces Plan was interrupted the Canterbury Earthquakes in 2010-2011 and further analysis and engagement regarding the BP Meats site was not progressed.

5.12    In 2019, the Community Board considered the property as part of a property review process. The Community Board resolved to retain ownership of the site for strategic purposes and directed that work be initiated to investigate future development options for the site (CNCL/2019/00069).

5.13    Since 2021 various unsolicited proposals have been received for the site including:

·    A proposal from the Christchurch Foundation which included a market square and replica boat from Shackleton’s expedition. The proposal has not progressed further owing to a lack of information/detail. 

·    A proposal from Ōnuku (supported by Ngai Tahu) which incorporates affordable housing. The Council are in on-going dialogue with Ōnuku regarding this proposal.

5.14    In late 2023, Council staff briefed the Community Board on the various unsolicited proposals for the site.

5.15    The site is currently leased to several tenants including Akaroa Butchery and Deli, L’Op Shop (preloved clothing shop) and Akaroa Community Arts Council.  The current rental income for the site sufficiently covers the site’s operational costs and as such the use and development of the site has not been an urgent priority for the Council.

6.   Policy Framework Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā- Kaupapa here

Strategic AlignmentTe Rautaki Tīaroaro

6.1          The proposed process aligns with the Councils strategic priorities and the Strengthening Communities Strategy. Engagement with the community will ensure that Council promotes an inclusive and equitable city/district with residents and groups in the Akaroa community having the opportunity to be actively involved in the process. :

6.2          Economic Development

6.2.1   Activity: Economic Development

·      Level of Service: 5.1.9.2 Facilitate urban development activities that contribute to a prosperous local economy  - New urban development projects added to the pipeline in line with the strategy  

6.3          Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

·     The BP Meats site is of importance to Ōnuku Rūnanga who have identified the site as a ‘priority project’ in relation to the Council’s Long Term Plan. It is also noted that the BP Meats site is subject to several cultural overlays under the Christchurch District Plan (including Mahaanui Iwi Management Plan Silent Files). The Council has also previously received a suggestion/proposal for the site from Ōnuku.

·     The process outlined in this report to determine future use options for the BP Meats site clearly outlines early and on-going engagement with Ōnuku.

·     Agreement to proceed with the proposed process will not impact the Council’s agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga.   

7.   Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

7.1       The proposals in this report are unlikely to contribute significantly to adaptation to the impacts of climate change or emissions reductions.  However, climate change resilience and other strategic priorities will inform future land use options to be investigated through the recommended process.

8.   Accessibility Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Hunga Hauā

8.1       Not applicable to this decision but will be considered in the process of evaluating future land use options.

9.   Resource Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi

Capex/Opex Ngā Utu Whakahaere

9.1       Facilitation of the proposed process is not a current priority but if scaled correctly, is able to be delivered via resourcing from the Property, Urban Regeneration and BP Community Governance and Teams. 

9.2       The consultant fees for the technical analysis being undertaken are funded from existing operational budgets of the Property Team.

10. Legal Implications Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

Statutory power to undertake proposals in the report Te Manatū Whakahaere Kaupapa

10.1    Approval to support staff in initiating the process outlined in this report will not have any legal implications.

1.   Purpose of Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       The purpose of this report is for the Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board to approve the proposed road names at 63 Lukes Road, Okains Bay.

1.2       The report is staff generated resulting from a naming request received from the developer.

2.   Staff Recommendations / Ngā Tūtohu

That Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board:

1.         Approves the following new road names for 63 Lukes Road (RMA/2023/813).

a.         Lane 1 - Ara Tamāhine Ātaahua

3.   Detail Te Whakamahuki

Introduction Te Whakatkinga

3.1       A road naming request has been submitted by Davis Ogilvie on behalf of the developer. A preferred name and alternative names have been put forward for the lane.

3.2       The recommended road names have been checked against existing road names in Christchurch and bordering districts, for duplication, alternative spelling, or other similarities in spelling or pronunciation to avoid the potential for confusion. The proposed names are considered sufficiently different to existing road names.

3.3       The recommended road names have been checked against the Council’s Naming Policy dated 15 November 2023 and are considered to be consistent with this policy except as outlined below. The specific criteria for assessing a name from clause 2 is set out below.

3.3.1   A traditional or Māori name which is acceptable to the Rūnanga or Iwi; this may be a name reflecting the physical characteristics of an area, an activity or event associated with the area or of a notable ancestor. 

3.3.2   A feature of historical, social, cultural, environmental or physical importance in the area (e.g., Carlton Mill Road or Carlton Mill Reserve*).

3.3.3   The name of a notable family, person or event associated with the locality or with the wider Christchurch area. 

3.3.4   A name in recognition of a person’s service. This can be for community service, conservation, sport, the arts, science and research or other sphere of activity.

3.3.5   Consistency with a common or established theme for naming in a subdivision or locality.

3.3.6   A name that reflects the diverse cultures and communities of the locality or of Christchurch generally.

3.3.7   The name of an event or activity strongly associated with the immediate location including an informal name for the area that is (or was historically) in common usage. 

3.3.8   A name associated with a person, event or activity of significance to Christchurch including names associated with people, events, or places of national and international significance. 

3.4       The criteria for names that are not suitable for approval from clause 6 is set out below.

3.4.1   Names of people, flora, fauna or geographical features not associated with the area, e.g., names of native trees which are not present in the area or views that cannot be identified, except where the name continues a current naming theme in the locality. 

3.4.2   Currently trading commercial organisations except for sponsorship names for facilities and leased parks.

3.4.3   Anagrams, amalgamations or derivatives of people's names.

3.4.4   Names of living persons.

3.4.5   Names related to the developer of a subdivision.

3.4.6   Name of a person, club or organisation associated with a privately owned building on Council land, where the club or organisation does not hold the ground lease for the building.

3.4.7   Names for roads which may cause confusion because they are associated with another geographical location or feature e.g., Parklands Drive which is not located in the Parklands suburb.

3.5       The recommended road names have also been checked against the Australia and New Zealand Standard AS/NZA 4819:2011 Rural and Urban Addressing. The names are considered to be consistent with the Standard unless otherwise stated below.

3.6       Under the Naming Policy, the names considered must be requested by the developer. There is not an ability to consider alternative names without first checking whether there are any duplications or similarities with other road and right-of-way names.

3.7       Consultation has been undertaken with Land Information New Zealand who have raised no concerns with the proposed road names.

3.8       Consultation under the policy with rūnanga is not required because none of the roads to be named are collector roads and/or sites of significance under the District Plan (clause 3 of the Naming Policy).

3.9       No addresses of neighbouring properties are affected by the proposed road naming (clause 12.2 of the Naming Policy).

3.10    The names requested have been accompanied by an explanation of the background to the names, which is summarised below, along with correspondence with the applicant.

Assessment of Significance and Engagement Te Aromatawai Whakahirahira

3.11    The decision in this report is of low significance in relation to the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Enagement Policy.

3.12    The level of significance was determined by the number of people affected and/or with an interest.

3.13    Council’s Principal Advisor Treaty Relationships has been consulted and has raised no concerns with the suitability of the proposed Te Reo Māori names set out below.

3.14    Due to the assessment of low significance, no further community engagement and consultation is required.

Proposed Names

3.15    The proposed roads are shown in Attachment A.

1.   Purpose of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1       The purpose of this report is for Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board to reconsider the appointment of Board representation on local outside organisations and revision of delegated decision making for Youth Development Fund for the remainder of the 2022-2025 Community Board term, following the Lyttelton subdivision By-election.

1.2       This report is staff generated to provide continuity with the Board’s existing representative and liaison arrangements that maintain links with local community groups and organisations. 

2.   Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board:

1.         Reviews appointments to external organisations considering the new Lyttelton member.

2.         Appoints a member of the Community Board, or other person, to the following body, as the Christchurch City Council’s representative on that body:

Ÿ       Lyttelton Historical Museum Society Incorporated.

3.         Appoints a representative on the following body:

Ÿ Lyttelton Port Liaison Committee.

4.         Appoints a liaison person to the following subordinate decision-making bodies and outside organisations:

Reserve Committees

Ÿ Lyttelton Reserves Committee.

Residents’ Associations

Ÿ Lyttelton Community Association.

Community Organisations

Ÿ       Grubb Cottage Trust.

Ÿ       Lyttelton Business Association.

Ÿ       Project Lyttelton Inc

5.         Revokes previous delegations for Youth Development Fund Decision Making.

6.         Delegates two Board members to approve Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board Youth Development Fund grants during the remaining 2022-2025 Board Term.

3.   Reason for Report Recommendations Ngā Take mō te Whakatau

3.1       Each triennium, Community Boards have routinely appointed members to various local organisations to be a Board liaison and point of contact for those groups. This important liaison role enables two-way contact and information sharing between the Board member(s) appointed and community organisations on behalf of the Board. 

3.2       At the commencement of the 2022-2025 term, the Board appointed member(s) as liaisons to groups that, represent and/or play a key role in local projects and issues, are included in supporting community engagement of the same, and represent a geographic area or specific sector of the community. The projects and/or issues are generally of local significance and relate back to the Council's Long Term and Annual Plans, and the Community Board Plan.

3.3       The Council has delegated to Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board the power to appoint a member of the Board, or in some cases another person, to some specific external organisations.

3.4       Owing to Reuben Davidson resigning from the Board in November, followed by the 2024 Lyttelton Subdivision By-election an opportunity to reconsider the Board appointments on external organisations has been created.

3.5       Owing to a regular clash of Council commitments, Councillor Tyrone Fields is unable to represent the Board on the Lyttelton Port Liaison Committee.

3.6       The tables below contain the full list of organisations with blank spaces identifying those organisations which need a replacement member.

3.7       Members may also take this opportunity to consider changing appointments to organisations.

3.8       The purpose of the Board’s Youth Development Fund (YDF) is to celebrate and support young people living in the Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula by providing financial assistance for their development and/or representation at events. It also provides an opportunity for the Community Board to acknowledge young people’s effort, achievement, and potential excellence in the community.

3.9       Many of the applicants find out about eligibility for competitions very close to when these are to take place. In an effort to speed up the decision process for applicants and reduce staff processing costs for these small grants, the Board approved delegation to Reuben Davidson and Luana Swindells to make the decision in consultation with the Board members via email, the outcome of which gets circulated to the Board and attached to the relevant Area Report at the Board’s 12 December 2022 meeting.

3.10    Reuben Davidson resigned from the Board in November 2023 thus the Board is asked to consider delegating a Board member to replace him, noting that Luana Swindells is currently delegated to consider Youth Development Fund applications on behalf of the Board.  It is recommended that two Board members are delegated.

4.   Context / Background / Te Horopaki

Port Hills Fire response

Key people in Governors Bay and Allandale were contacted to check if there were any needs of those evacuated by police, self-evacuees or the wider community.

 

In Governors Bay people were staying connected using Facebook and WhatsApp groups.

The local CDEM volunteers talked with Governors Bay Fire Station to see if there was any need to open up the Governors Bay Community Centre as a place to go for a cup of tea and information but this was felt to be unnecessary.

 

In the absence of any formal place to drop-in, the Principal of Governors Bay School opened up the School Library as a place where parents could have a coffee and support each other etc.

 

In Allandale police evacuated 120 children from Living Springs Camp.

Residents were also evacuated from Allandale Lane and Bamfords Road advised to be ready to evacuate.

 

The fire crossed the Summit Road and into Ohinetahi Reserve between Governors Bay and Allandale.

 

In Allandale there was a focus on moving stock from the upper hills into paddocks lower down the valley.

Karakia Whakamutunga

Unuhia, unuhia

Unuhia ki te uru tapu nui

Kia wātea, kia māmā, te ngākau,

Te tinana te wairua i te ara takatā

Koia rā e Rongo, whakairia ake ki runga

Kia tina! TINA! Hui e! TĀIKI E!

Draw on, draw on,
Draw on the supreme sacredness
To clear, to free the heart, the body and the spirit of mankind
Rongo, suspended high above us (i.e. in ‘heaven’)
Draw together! Affirm!
