· Halswell Community Patrol Launch Event

A Halswell Community Patrol Launch Event was held on Saturday 17 August 2024 at Halswell Community Hub.

The event launched the newly formed Halswell Community Patrol and its new patrol car. The Board allocated a Better Off Fund grant towards the purchase of the patrol car which, along with the Halswell Community Patrol will be an asset to the community.

The Patrol aims to reduce crime within the Halswell community through being the additional “eyes and ears” of the Police. The Patrol supports the Police through surveillance and notifying Police of criminal activity, thus helping people within the community feel safer.

Patrollers have attended their first district training session, learning about how to safely manage traffic at a road crash so that those involved in the crash, other road users and our patrollers are kept safe.

The Patrol is seeking volunteer patrollers and can be contacted by emailing halswell@cpnz.org.nz or through the Halswell Community Patrol Facebook page.

· Quarry View Drainage Reserve Tree Planting Plan

The Quarry View drainage reserve tree planting plan opened for consultation on 6 September 2024, closing on 6 October 2024: https://letstalk.ccc.govt.nz/treeplantingplans/quarry-view-reserve-tree-planting-plan

It is expected that the plan and feedback will be presented to the Board meeting on 14 November 2024 (TBC).

· Plan Change 14

The Proposed Housing and Business Choice Plan Change (PC14) to bring the District Plan in line with the government direction that has been given via the National Policy Statement-Urban Development and the Resource Management (Enabling Housing Supply and Other Matters) Amendment Act to enable more development in the city’s existing urban footprint together with The Heritage Plan Change (PC13) were consulted on in 2023.

The Board lodged submissions and further submissions on the submissions made by others and presented to the independent hearing Panel (IHP).

The Panel (IHP) has released its recommendations on the plan Change. The recommendations have been published on both the Council’s and IHP’s websites.

The Council will decide on 18 September whether to accept the recommendations of the Independent Hearings Panel (IHP) on the City Centre Zone and associated provisions, as well as whether to support a number of qualifying matters.

A further decision will follow in December 2024 on the balance of Plan Change 14 that implements policies 3 and 4 of the National Policy Statement on Urban Development.

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

4.1 Hei Hei Road - St Bernadettes School Pedestrian Crossing Facility

At its meeting on 11 April 2024 the Board received a petition requesting the installation of a pedestrian crossing outside St Bernadettes School on Hei Hei Road, Hornby. The Board referred the issues raised in the petition to staff for investigation and report to the Board. The staff advice has now been received and is attached for your information (see Attachment C).

Staff advise that there is currently a Kea Crossing outside St Bernadettes School that is not currently being operated. A Kea Crossing is a form of priority pedestrian crossing that schools operate during school times to provide children with a safe place to cross the road. Kea Crossings do not have an underlying Zebra Crossing. A School Patrol is a form of priority pedestrian crossing with an underlying Zebra Crossing. Staff do not recommend that the current Kea Crossing be changed to a School Patrol as it would demand the same resourcing levels by the School as the current Kea Crossing.

While there is an option to remove the existing Kea Crossing and install a Zebra Crossing, a priority pedestrian crossing that would operate fulltime, in its place retrofitting a Zebra Crossing in this location would involve the following:

· Removal of the existing Kea Crossing flag mounts, road markings, and advance warning signage

· Installation of new advance warning signage, road markings including coloured surfacing, and poles with fluorescent discs.

· Installation of traffic calming to support lower operating speeds, either on each approach or in the form of a raised crossing point. This is considered a necessity to manage vehicle speeds in the event of a collision.

· Assessment of lighting levels, with lighting upgrades a possibility.

An initial estimate of the cost of above works could be approximately $50,000- $75,000 including traffic management but excluding a potential lighting upgrade. There is currently no funding allocated to retrofit a Zebra Crossing at this location.

Staff have included this location on the Traffic Operations Potential Projects database, recommending a Zebra Crossing. The database includes potential projects across the city which are collated for prioritisation and funding allocation. It is noted that this project will need to be assessed against other projects which may have less pedestrian provision than what St Bernadettes, currently has.

Staff consider that the best option at this point in time, to enable safer pedestrian movements across Hei Hei Road during school hours, is for St Bernadettes School to operate the existing Kea Crossing.

4.2 Ilam wastewater upgrade

A staff memorandum is attached (refer to Attachment D) providing an update on the Ilam wastewater upgrade.

The large wastewater upgrade will start in Ilam in early September 2024 and is expected to finish in mid-2026 with improvements being made to wastewater infrastructure along Clyde, Creyke and Maidstone Roads.

4.3 Pavement resurfacing on Lancewood Drive, Halswell

At its meeting on 15 August 2024 the Board received a public forum presentation from a resident of Lancewood Drive, Halswell regarding pavement resurfacing adjacent to his property. The resident was concerned that the service strip adjacent to his property, that he had previously planted, has been sealed but the sealing has left an area around a power box unsealed and a nib wall exposed.

Following the presentation the Board referred the issues raised in the presentation to staff and requested that staff provide advice on the resurfacing works undertaken on Lancewood Drive, Halswell.

Staff have now responded and advised that the sealing is on a Council owned strip of footpath and the upgrade to the footpath is allowed within the Christchurch City Council Infrastructure Design Standard 2022 (page 8-40) serial 8.15.1 and will not be removed.

It is proposed to:

· tidy up and seal the area around the power box

· cut back the concrete nib and seal up to the driveway

The resident has been advised and the contractor will liaise let him know when repairs will be done.
