1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 For the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board to consider the approval of extending no stopping restrictions near the pedestrian island on Waitikiri Drive.

1.2 This report has been written following a request from a resident who expressed concerns for safety of pedestrians relating to lack of visibility at the refuge island on Waitikiri Drive.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board:

1. Receive the information in the Waitikiri Drive - Proposed No Stopping Restrictions Report.

2. Note that the decision in this report is assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.

3.1 Concerns have been raised regarding restricted visibility caused by on-street parking close to the northeastern end of the pedestrian island on Waitikiri Drive.

4.2 There have been 2, non-injury crashes on Waitikiri Drive in the last five years.

4.3 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).

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

4.4 The following reasonably practicable options were considered and are assessed in this report:

· Extend the yellow lines near the pedestrian island.

3. Community Support, Governance and Partnership Activity

3.1 Community Governance Projects

Activity	Detail	Timeline	Strategic Alignment
Mugford Restoration Project	60 staff from Kiwicare volunteered over 3 days to help the Avon Heathcote Estuary Ihutai Trust with their latest restoration project at Mugford, Bexley. The group weeded, guarded and mulched around newly planted native vegetation and learnt about predator control and setting out a trapping line.	On-going	Enhancing Environmental wellbeing
House of Hoopz Street Ball league	The Grand Final of the House of Hoopz was held on 30 March 2024 at the New Brighton half court along Marine Parade. The winners of each of the events in the series, headed to New Brighton's half court to battle it out for the kudos of being House of Hoopz champions. The event attracted over hundred spectators from right across the city who came to cheer on their team, friends and whānau and passersby who simply stopped to watch the action. Each of the competitions in the league series, culminating in the finals at New Brighton have activated public recreational spaces with positive activity for rangatahi.	30 March	New Brighton Safety Initiatives: Support engagement with youth sector in the development of activities and recreational spaces for our tamariki in the mall, and key activity areas across the ward
Stitch-O-Mat	Stitch-O-Mat have now moved to their new location at Shop 4 Carnaby Lane in New Brighton Mall as of 8 April. After The Brighton Gallery Trust moved out of the premises there was potential for it to join the list of unoccupied buildings in New Brighton Mall, adding to the associated problems with unoccupied shops. With the cooperation of the property owner and funding support from the Waitai Community Board, Stitch-O-Mat have managed to secure the lease and move fairly quickly, ensuring continuity of their services for the community and also that the space was not left unoccupied for very long.	On-going	New Brighton Mall
Woolston Gala	Staff met with Woolston Development Project to start to plan for the re-establishment of the Woolston Gala to be held on Woolston Park. Currently staff are surveying local groups, residents and businesses to gauge interest in being part of a Gala. Staff are aiming to plan for a Gala to be held in November of this year.

3.2 Community Funding Summary

3.2.1 For the Board’s information, a summary is provided (refer Attachment A) on the status of the Board’s 2023-24 funding as at 16 April 2024.

3.3 Participation in and Contribution to Decision Making

3.3.1 Report back on other Activities contributing to Community Board Plan [for items not included in the above table but are included in Community Board Plan]

· Community Garden Pride Awards

On Monday 15 April 2024, the Board hosted their annual Community Garden Pride Awards at the Aranui Wainoni Community Centre. A total of 158 recipients in the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board will receive a certificate with approximately 34 handed out at the event.

· Port Link Briefing

The Waitai Community Board received an update from the Head of Planning and Consents, the Team Leader for RMA Compliance, the Senior Planner and Solicitor who have been working on the Port Link site. The Board requested that the hui would be held at a venue that was nearby the community affected, so that residents who live near the Port Link facility could attend the briefing in person to hear the update, rather than travelling to the New Brighton Boardroom or listening to the livestream.

Supporting this request, the hui was arranged to be held at the former Waikura Linwood-Central-Heathcote Community Boardroom at Smith Street in Woolston on 21 March 2024. Four residents attended and were invited to the table by the Board Chair to be able to ask questions and engage with the kōrero alongside their elected representatives. The residents fed back that they appreciated and valued the opportunity to ask questions directly and that the briefing was open for them to attend.

· South Island Novice Championships

Woolston Boxing club hosted and ran the South Island Novice Championships 2024 on 23 and 24 March at their home at Woolston Club. With 60 fights on the Saturday and then another 20 on the Sunday Finals Day. The gym was packed with hundreds of young athletes testing their training and skills against other boxers from all over the South Island.

Staff and volunteers from Woolston Boxing Club put in a huge amount of mahi in the lead up to and in the weekend of the Championships to make sure it was a fun, safe and exciting for all involved. The ring and arena were built with the help of members parents who donated not only materials but time to the Club. The event planning, administration and operations was divvied out to a pool of volunteers who are either members themselves or have tamariki training at the Club. The successes of the winners mirrored the hard work and positive attitudes demonstrated by the staff, coaches and officials working with the young people in their Clubs.

· House of Hoopz Grand Final

House of Hoopz Ōtautahi hit New Brighton's half court on Saturday 30 March 2024. The contest saw finalists from eight different suburbs battling it out for the kings or queens of the court and have House of Hoopz 2024 bragging rights.

House of Hoopz is the latest streetball competition in Ōtautahi delivered by Youth and Cultural Development (YCD), supported by Christchurch City Council, Selwyn District Council, The Gators, Clubkingz, Whanaketanga Barbers and Lulus Braids over the past eight weeks.

The streetball league saw great talent across each competition, which began in Shirley before heading into Hoon Hay, Belfast, Linwood, Selwyn, Aranui, Hornby and Phillipstown. Winners from these suburban tournaments then made their way down to New Brighton's half court on the Saturday to play off in the finals.

Alongside the 3x3 games, the event welcomed participants for a 'dunk' contest as well as a three-point contest with lots of prizes up for grabs.

The Fresh Team from YCD provided a free BBQ for players and spectators but free braids from Lulu’s House of Braids as the Barbarians who offered free fades for all young people.

A guest appearance from local artist Big Sima was made alongside DJ INFRARED, a Flava Radio Station DJ and CLUB KINGZ DJ. With the streetball league targeted at youth, offered all young people the chance to play street sports. YCD aimed to take away financial barriers that may arise with playing sports.

Wrapping up for 2024, it was the Linwood team who won the title of champions, promising to be the team to beat in 2025.

· Climate Action Campus

Lots has been happening at the Climate Action campus as their projects continue to progress. In the last month volunteers have been working on a new food forest on the former cricket fields and a new container was delivered which is the first piece of kit for the native nursery project the NZ Conservation Volunteers are establishing on site.

The main office and some of the old classrooms at the campus are getting a new lease of life with volunteer artists designing and creating murals on the bare outside walls.

· Community Soup Event

The Driftwood Council of Brighton ran the first of their New Brighton Soup on Monday 25 March 2024. For a $10 entry fee participants received a bowl of soup to enjoy and one vote for the best pitch of the night. They heard from several individuals and groups who were presenting their idea for a great project for Greater Brighton. All the proceeds go towards making the winning idea happen.

This event was a collaboration with New Brighton Community Gardens who provided the ingredients for and made the soup, New Brighton Surf Life Saving Club who provided the venue and the members of the Driftwood Council who put the event together.

Amongst the several pitches who presented the ideas, it was Brighton Gallery Trust who won the community vote and received over $200 for their youth roller-door project.

· Community Law Workshop

In partnership with Community Law, Waitai Community Governance staff organised a workshop held on the 5 April for community groups who have Incorporated Society status to learn about the changes to the law.

The workshop went in-depth into the steps groups are going to need take to re-register their organisations and the additional administration that is required as part of the changes to the Incorporated Societies Act. Staff have heard that groups have been apprehensive of their new obligations under the Act and so being able to provide a workshop delivered by a professional from Community Law was important. The groups were able to deep dive into what exactly they needed to do and ask questions specific to their legal status and context.

Staff will continue to work with Community Law to develop a schedule of future workshops to continue to support community organisations through the coming changes.

3.3.2 Council Engagement and Consultation.

· The Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board Submissions Committee held a meeting on Thursday 4 April 2024. Presented for record purposes (refer Attachment B) are the Board’s Submissions Committee Minutes and Submission to the Council on the Ōtākaro Avon Stormwater Management Plan.

· The Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board held a Long Term Plan Workshop with local groups on Thursday 4 April 2024. The feedback received during this workshop will be taken into consideration for inclusion in the Board’s Draft Long Term Plan 2024-34 Submission.

· The Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board Submissions Committee held a meeting on Tuesday 16 April 2024. Presented for record purposes (refer Attachment C) are the Board’s Submissions Committee Minutes and Submission to the Council on the Draft Long Term Plan 2024-2034.

3.4 Governance Advice

3.4.1 Urban Waterways and Estuaries Joint Working Group

At its meeting on 12 February 2024, the Board received an item of correspondence from Councillor J Davies, Environment Canterbury in relation to feedback sought to re-establish the Urban Waterways and Estuaries Joint Working Group. The Board requested that staff consider presenting this at the next Governors Forum for discussion between Christchurch City Council and Environment Canterbury.

Staff have advised that Councillor J Davies circulated a memorandum summarising the feedback he received ahead of the 15 March 2024 ECan:CCC Governors Meeting. It is understood that this topic was not raised at the meeting. ECan staff will seek to follow up with Councillor Davies.

3.4.2 Berms surrounding Linfield Park

At its meeting on 11 September 2023, during consideration of the monthly Area Report, the Board resolved to request staff provide advice on costs involved with regards to planting at the berms surrounding Linfield Park. Staff have provided the following response:

Area of berm assessed is between the legal boundaries of the sports facility.

Total area of grass berm approx. 497m2 /around 257 linear meters both estimated by desk top exercise.

Associated risks:

Services -unfortunately, there is an Enable cable running the length of the berm around 1 meter from the kerb which in itself would deem the project impractical.

There are several stormwater outlets within the berms which would also prohibit work around these assets.

There are 6 trees (magnolia grandiflora) in the berms which will need a TPMP plan for working around, will not be able to excavate sufficient depth for shrub planting around the trees i.e. within the drip lines.

When digging out would potentially need to shore up along the kerb and footpath sides of the grass berms to prevent undermining of these assets which again may place limitations regarding excavation.

Car’s parking along the gardens (if formed/approved) Passengers would be exiting the vehicle directly into the gardens (not ideal) and my hunch is that including pedestrian foot traffic crossing between fields would damage the shrubs /gardens.

Estimated costs

$99,736.00

Includes Technical design/scoping/project management, service location, Traffic management, Tree protection plan, dig out/back fill, shrub planting, mulch and establishment maintenance for up to two years.

The scale of work would make this a capital programme job, Road Amenity and Asset Protection only have budgets to maintain. If the Board would like something to happen here, they would need to advocate for capital funding through LTP/AP processes.

3.4.3 Safety Improvements to Rudds Road

At its meeting on 11 March 2024, during consideration of the monthly Area Report, the Board resolved to request that staff consider including improvements to Rudds Road between Kearneys Road and Cypress Street. Staff have provided the following response:

Unfortunately there is insufficient budget to accommodate additional scope beyond providing the speed humps to address the issues identified on Cypress Street. The project is being funded from the Minor Safety Interventions programme, which aims to do around five projects per year from a budget of $300k. With a budget of this scale there is limited flexibility to allow for increased scope.

Board Members may be aware of the Bromley Action Plan which is being developed separately. Rudds Road is within the area under consideration, so the Board could advocate for this to be put forward for inclusion within the action plan.

4. Advice Provided to the Community Board Ngā Kupu Tohutohu ka hoatu ki te Poari Hapori
