9. Queenspark Reserve - Playspace Renewal
Reference Te Tohutoro:	24/2198271
Responsible Officer(s) Te Pou Matua:	Barbara Heise, Community Parks Project Manager
Accountable ELT Member Pouwhakarae:	Andrew Rutledge, Acting General Manager Citizens and Community

1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek approval from the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board for the proposed concept design for the playground renewal at Queenspark Reserve, located at 210 Queenspark Drive, Parklands.

1.2 The report is staff generated.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board:

1. Receives the information in the Queenspark Reserve – Playspace Renewal Report.

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

3. Approve the concept design for the playground renewal at Queenspark Reserve, located at 210 Queenspark Drive, Parklands as per attachment A of the agenda report.

4. Request staff proceed with the development of the detailed design and construction phases of the project.

3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1 Queenspark Reserve is included in the Community Parks Planned Play Space Renewals. The play space is scheduled to be renewed based on its age and condition.

3.2 The renewal of the playground will provide significant improvements to the play and recreation needs of the community surrounding this local area.

3.3 The draft concept design (Attachment A), which incorporates feedback from public consultation conducted from 27 February – 20 March 2023, and was presented to the Community Board during a workshop on 28 November 2024.

3.4 The estimated cost of the renewal is within the approved budget for this project.

3.5 Upon approval of the proposed concept design, the detailed design process will commence. Construction of the proposed design is expected to begin in autumn 2025.

4. Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1 The play space at Queenspark Reserve consists of an old climbing structure, a see saw, swing set, steep slide, along with three picnic benches and a rubbish bin sitting outside the play area. The western side of the play space is fenced off from Queenspark Drive and the adjacent Queenspark School property to the north, while the southeastern side remains open and accessible. The play equipment is in poor condition and has reached the end of its serviceable life. Furthermore, the existing play equipment is scattered throughout the park with insufficient safety surfacing around play zones.

4.2 This renewal follows the “like for like” principle, meaning current play elements will be maintained while ensuring that today’s NZ Play Safety Standards are met. Basic updates to the levels of service are also considered:

· Accessible picnic tables are included as standard furniture items in playgrounds to provide families to a safe space to gather and share food.

· The play space will utilise nature play elements to better integrate the play space with the park setting and support imaginative play.

4.3 The play items at Queenspark Reserve are stand alone in terms of their location. To maximise play benefits and manage the cost of safety surfacing, play items will be grouped together. The proposed new play space retains a similar location but is clustered closer to the footpath to enhance accessibility

4.4 Public consultation for the play space renewal was conducted through the Korero Mai process from 27 February – 20 March 2023.

4.5 Queenspark Reserve: https://www.ccc.govt.nz/the-council/community-consultation-archive/show/562. The results were shared with the community board at the information session on 28 November 2024.

4.6 Three play equipment options were presented with a total of 250 responses received. Option 3, which features a more natural colour palette, emerged as the preferred option.

4.7 Despite this preference for option 3, written feedback indicated that many respondents did not feel that any of the three options fully reflected their preferences. There was a split in opinion about which age group this play space should cater for. Submitters also asked for the long swing element to be retained and for the creation of a more inclusive play space, and additional seating areas to gather and share kai (food).

4.8 Staff met with a member of the Residents’ Association on site to discuss options and expectations for the play space renewal.

4.9 Following a review of all feedback, a new design was developed to better reflect the community’s needs, while applying “like-for-like” replacement principles.

4.10 The following related information session/workshops have taken place for the members of the meeting:

Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board Information Session/Workshop - Queenspark Reserve - updated play space concept design

https://christchurch.infocouncil.biz/Open/2024/11/ISWC_20241128_AGN_10128_AT_WEB.htm

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

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

4.11.1 Option 1 - The Community Board adopt the proposed concept design for the Queenspark Reserve play space renewal, allowing commencement of the detailed design and construction to commence in autumn 2025.

4.11.2 Option 2 - The Community Board does not approve the concept design and requests that staff consider alternative designs and re-consult with the community.

4.11.3 Option 3 - Do nothing, leaving the existing play equipment in “as is”.

Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.12 Preferred Option – Option 1:

4.12.1 Option Description: The Community Board adopt the proposed concept design and allow the project to progress to detailed design and construction.

4.12.2 Option Advantages

· The community receives a new play space that aligns with feedback provided and a space that provides play opportunities for younger children while also providing elements that appeal to older age groups.

· The project can continue without further delays allowing delivery of a new play space in autumn 2025.

4.12.3 Option Disadvantages

· No additional changes can be made to the concept design without risking delayed delivery or increased costs.

4.13 Alternative Option – Option 2

4.13.1 Option Description: Consideration of alternative design and re-consultation.

4.13.2 Option Advantages

· The Community Board could offer alternative suggestion to the proposed concept design.

· The community could offer additional feedback for inclusion in an alternative design.

4.13.3 Option Disadvantages

· This option would impact on the allocated budget as the new playground design and engagement costs would be funded from within the current budget. It is likely that this would impact the size and amount of play elements we would be able to include in a revised plan.

· The play space renewal would be delayed by approximately four to six months.

4.14 Alternative Option – Option 3

4.14.1 Option Description: Do nothing.

4.14.2 Option Advantages

· This would provide Council with a saving in capital and operating expenditure.

4.14.3 Option Disadvantages

· If the play space were to maintain “as is” the play equipment becoming unsafe to play on, creating severe health & safety risk for the community.

· Play equipment would have to be removed from the reserve permanently and level of service for the community would be decreased.

Analysis Criteria Ngā Paearu Wetekina

4.15 Based on community feedback the early concept design was re-worked to include elements that better align with community needs. An outline of the updated concept design is shown in Figure 3 and the full concept, including equipment options, is attached to this report as Attachment A.

Figure 3: Queenspark Reserve – Outline updated concept design
A map of a park

Description automatically generated

4.16 The proposed play equipment is designed to offer a diverse range of play opportunities and improve accessibility. As outlined in the concept design (Attachment A), the proposed equipment includes:

· Swing set (with toddler and junior seat options)

· Long tower slide

· Play cottage

· Climbing frame

· Junior toddler slide

· Butterfly rocker

· Waka (set within garden bed)

· Stepping logs and balancing beams

· Two accessible picnic tables

The equipment shown in the concept design is subject to availability and pricing, small changes may be made if required.

4.17 The proposed location for the play equipment complies with the Christchurch District Plan, which requires play equipment and structures to be positioned a minimum of 10m from a residential boundary fence and 5m from a road boundary. The play space will remain in its current location, but the play equipment will be rearranged to improve the flow between elements, enhance accessibility, and reduce costs for safety surfacing.

4.18 A walkable access route will be maintained between the park entrance and the broader Queenspark Reserve, including the naturally formed walkway connecting the school and the reserve. Playful elements will be added along the informal walkway and under the adjacent trees, offering children opportunities to engage with nature.

4.19 While the concept design addresses the needs of younger children, it is important to note that a separate Parklands/Queenspark Youth Play Space Development project is planned for the 2027 financial year. This future project will focus on providing more targeted play opportunities for older children.

4.20 Additionally, the concept design outlines a thinning of vegetation along the roadside to improve visibility to the play space in effort to enhance safety.

5.1 The cost to implement are based on an initial cost estimate and have yet to be confirmed. This usually occurs during the construction tender phase.

5.2 Council staff anticipate being able to manage small budget shortfalls through minor amendments to the surface area or other suitable measures.

6. Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro

Risks and Mitigations Ngā Mōrearea me ngā Whakamātautau

6.1 Implementation costs are based on anticipated product supply, installation and wider construction costs. There is a risk that these costs could change due to product availability and supply. Final cost of construction will be confirmed during the tender phase and may vary from the current cost estimate. If cost escalates over the budget, Council staff will manage small shortfalls through minor amendments to the design. Should there by major implications to the level of service, Council staff will discuss these with the Community Board before proceeding further with the project.

6.2 A water pipe is located underneath the play space. Subject to how shallow the pipe is buried, there is a risk it could be hit during construction. Council staff will ensure the construction contractor is aware of this risk and will undertake investigative works to determine depth prior to construction.

Legal Considerations Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

6.3 As per the Christchurch City Council’s Delegation Register, 9 August 2024, the Community Board has the delegation to:

6.3.1 Approve the location of, and construction of, or alteration or addition to, any structure or area on parks and reserves provided the matter is within the policy and budget set by the Council (Part D – Sub Part 1 – Community Boards – Pg 96).

6.4 Other Legal Implications:

6.4.1 There is no legal context, issue, or implication relevant to these decisions.

Strategy and Policy Considerations Te Whai Kaupapa here

6.5 The required decision:

6.5.1 Align with the Christchurch City Council’s Strategic Framework that our residents have the opportunity to actively participate in community and city life, have a strong sense of belonging and identity, and feel safe.

6.5.2 Are assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by the level of decision impacting on a low number of residents and a small change to the two Reserves.

6.5.3 Are consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies: Physical Recreation and Sports Strategy 2002.

6.6 This report supports the Council's Long Term Plan (2024 - 2034):

6.7 Parks, Heritage and Coastal Environment

6.7.1 Activity: Parks and Foreshore.

6.8 Level of Service: 6.8.5 Resident satisfaction with the overall availability of recreation facilities within the City’s parks and foreshore network - >= 70%.

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

6.9 Community views were gathered during the public consultation from 27 February – 20 March 2023.

6.10 Feedback from submitters was included in the concept design for the new plays pace.

6.11 The proposed concept design for Queenspark Reserve play space will improve the play experience in Parklands. The renewal will benefit the community by offering enhanced play value, modern amenities and improved accessibility.

6.12 Following an information session with the Community Board on 28 November 2024, the draft concept design was shared with submitters. They were informed about this report and the pending Community Board decision and invited to attend the meeting to provide additional feedback, if desired.

6.13 The decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:

6.13.1 The Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.14 These decisions do not involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land, a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore these decisions do not specifically impact Mana Whenua, their culture, and traditions.

6.15 These decisions do not involve a matter of interest to Mana Whenua and will not impact on our agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga.

Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

6.16 The decisions in this report are likely to:

6.16.1 Contribute positively to emissions reductions, in that residents will have access to a play facility within walking distance and therefore may choose not to drive to other playgrounds.

6.17 Provision of play opportunities near residents may impact the chosen travel options of residents, leading to a reduction in car travel, thereby supporting emissions reductions.

7. Next Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri

7.1 If the Community Board approves the proposed concept design for Queenspark Reserve, Council staff will progress the project to development of the detailed design, tendering contracts for delivery and beginning construction in autumn 2025.

10. Acquisition of Land 657 Pages Road Christchurch, Pages Road Bridge Renewal Project
Reference Te Tohutoro:	24/1546209
Responsible Officer(s) Te Pou Matua:	Stuart McLeod, Property Consultant
Accountable ELT Member Pouwhakarae:	Brent Smith, Acting General Manager City Infrastructure

1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwod Community Board recommendation to Council to commence the formal acquisition process under the Public Works Act 1981 (the PWA) of two adjoining portions of land required for the Pages Road bridge renewal project.

1.2 The report is required to compulsorily acquire land for the Pages Road bridge renewal project.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board recommends to Council that it:

1. Receives the information in the Acquisition of Land 657 Pages Road Christchurch, Pages Road Bridge Renewal Project Report.

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

3. Approves the commencement of the acquisition under the Public Works Act 1981of 324m² being part Rural Section 1729 and part Lot 19 DP 806 shown as section 1 RPS58320 to formalise the Council’s ownership.

4. Delegates authority to the Manager Property Consultancy to do all thing necessary at his sole discretion to manage and conclude the acquisition of 324m² being part Rural Section 1729 and part Lot 19 DP 806 shown as section 1 RPS58320 including (but not limited to) signing and serving notices under section 23 of the Public Works Act 1981 of the Councils intention to take the land and making application to the Minister of Lands to take the land.

3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1 The Council needs to acquire section 1 RPS5830 on the eastern end of Pages Road to enable the new Pages Road bridge to be constructed on the approved alignment.

3.2 The owner of the land is long deceased and efforts to find a descendent who is willing to make a claim to the estate have been unsuccessful.

3.3 In such circumstances acquiring authorities like the Council have statutory authority under Part 2 of the Public Works Act 1981 to compulsorily acquire the land using the processes prescribed therein.

3.4 Staff require the Council’s approval to commence the compulsorily acquisition process established in the Public Works Act 1981.

4. Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1 The Gateway to New Brighton project is principally about the replacement of the Pages Road Bridge and relocating it slightly to the north, improvements to the lead up to the bridge on Pages Road from ANZAC Drive through to surrounding streets on the New Brighton side of the river.

4.2 Planning has been underway to replace the Pages Road bridge for several years with the Council having received or considered memos and reports on multiple occasions as listed below in paragraph 4.3.

4.3 The following related reports and memos in relation to the wider Pages Road bridge renewal project have previously been considered by the meeting members:

4.4 On 7 August 2024, the Council considered recommendations in a report from a Hearings Panel that was established to consider the outcomes of the consultation and engagement process for the Gateway to New Brighton project as approved by the Hearings Panel – minutes as shown in Attachment A.

4.5 The Hearings Panel considered a number of options and supported the option of a new bridge to the north of the old one. Its resolutions focus on broad project parameters with some detailed design options to be reported back to the Council. Regardless of the final detailed design the approved realignment of the Pages Road Bridge requires the acquisition of section 1 RPS5830 (as detailed in Attachment B).

Land owner

4.6 The two parcels of land required are Part Rural Section 1729 and Part Lot 19 DP 806 held in Record of Title CB114/221 and have been owned by Jabez Rhodes since 1885 (Attachment C).

4.7 At the time Mr Rhodes title contained 54 hectares, he undertook multiple subdivisions of his land and sold off individual sections up until 1899, leaving balance parcels as evidenced in Attachment D, of these only 324m² (subject to survey) referred to above are required for the Pages Road bridge renewal project.

4.8 Mr Rhodes is obviously deceased, however the land described above technically remains in his estate. Research has been undertaken to find the date of death of Mr Rhodes and establish the “chain of executorship”. No record of death can be found and subsequently no chain of executorship or administrator can be established. It was concluded Mr Rhodes left New Zealand and died overseas.

Formal acquisition process

4.9 In these circumstances the PWA provides an alternative route to allow the Council to overcome such difficulties to acquire the land. This route involves using advertising to cover off the notice requirements in section 18 of the Public Works Act 1981

4.10 The PWA compulsory acquisition process typically involves the issue of two types notice, the first a section 18 notice of desire to take land, and secondly the two section 23 notices notifying the Councils intention to take the land. However under section 18(7) (a) of the PWA the section 23 public notices taking can be issued without previously issuing a section 18 notice where “after reasonable inquiry the owner of the land cannot be found or is absent from New Zealand without appearing to have appointed an attorney with power to act on his behalf, and a period of 3 months has elapsed since notification was attempted to be given under subsection (1) the Minister or local authority, as the case may be, may, without complying with the provisions of subsection (1) or subsection (2), proceed to take the land under this Act.”

4.11 Under section 26 of the PWA if no objection is made to the notices of intention to take the land have been received, or is withdrawn by the objector or is disallowed by the Environment Court then the Council may take the land by submitting to the Governor General a request to take the land. The Governor General may then issue a proclamation taking the land for a public work, such proclamation shall be published in the NZ Gazette and publicly notified within 1 month of its making.

4.12 Council staff have endeavoured to locate any descendants of Mr Rhodes by public advertisement under section 18(7) of the PWA. Notices appeared in the Press on 24 February 2024 and again on 17 April 2024 (Attachment E) and expired on 17 July 2024.

4.13 On the 6 March 2024 one response was received from a person in Australia who claimed to be a descendant of Mr Rhodes. They were given a copy of Attachment D and advised if they wanted to pursue a claim to the land they needed to seek independent legal advice, no claim has been received, no further claimants have come forward and the statutory advertising period has now expired.

4.14 The Council is therefore able to dispense with serving of notice under section 18 of the PWA and publish in the New Zealand Gazette a notice under section 23 of the Public Works Act a notice of its intention to take the land

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

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

4.15.1 Acquire the land shown as section 1 RPS5830 for the bridge.

4.16 The following options were considered but ruled out:

4.16.1 Do not acquire the land for the bridge – This option was ruled out because,

· Underlying land ownership should be confirmed to avoid future uncertainty,

· Council would have infrastructure on land it does not own

· Council would have no right to legally occupy it.

Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.17 Preferred Option: Acquisition of land 657 Pages Road – Section 1 RPS5830.

4.17.1 Option Description: This option involves the compulsory acquisition of Section 1 shown on RPS5830.

4.17.2 Option Advantages

· This is the most expedient and only possible way of taking ownership of the land required for the Pages Road bridge renewal project.

· Provides certainty to the project.

4.17.3 Option Disadvantages

· None.

Analysis Criteria Ngā Paearu Wetekina

4.18 Consideration was given to all options discussed in this report to provide a long-term solution to legalise Council occupation.

4.19 The recommendations in this report deliver the best solution for the Pages Road bridge renewal project.

5. Financial Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi

Capex/Opex Ngā Utu Whakahaere

	Recommended Option
Cost to Implement	Estimated $15,000 staff costs $14,790 land cost
Maintenance/Ongoing Costs	N/A
Funding Source	LTP 27273
Funding Availability	FY 2024 - 2030
Impact on Rates	None – already factored into LTP

5.1 This proposal is an operational matter to facilitate the future construction of the Pages Road bridge. The bridge project has $63,365,000.00 budgeted for it in the 2024 – 2034 LTP.

5.2 There will be staff time and survey costs of approximately $15,000.00 as indicated in the above estimate.

5.3 The land is relatively low in value due to its size, shape, location and zoning. NZTA have approved funding of 51% of the assumed $29,000 for the property purchase.

6. Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro

Risks and Mitigations Ngā Mōrearea me ngā Whakamātautau

6.1 There is a minor risk the one respondent to the public notice comes forward again. However, this is considered very unlikely because they were given clear and simple advice that if they want to pursue a claim, they should seek legal advice, no claim has been received within the statutory time frame.

6.2 Any such claimant would need to be prepared to incur the costs of tracing the line of executors of Mr Rhodes and locate other potential beneficiaries with a view to distributing the proceeds of sale between them.

Legal Considerations Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

6.3 Statutory and/or delegated authority to undertake proposals in the report:

6.3.1 The Council under section 23 of the PWA can take steps to compulsorily acquire land for which there are no known owners, this statutory authority has not been delegated to staff and remains a Council decision.

6.4 Other Legal Implications:

6.4.1 There is no other legal context, issue, or implication relevant to this decision.

Strategy and Policy Considerations Te Whai Kaupapa here

6.5 The required decisions:

6.5.1 Align with the Christchurch City Council’s Strategic Framework by managing ratepayers money wisely and ensuring future certainty for the project.

6.5.2 Is assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by assessing the benefits of the acquisition of the land prior to construction of the bridge to ensure legal ownership and occupancy.

6.5.3 Is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies.

6.6 This report supports the Council's Long Term Plan (2024 - 2034):

6.7 Strategic Planning and Policy

6.7.1 Activity: City Growth and Property

· Level of Service: 13.4.10 Acquisition of property right projects, (e.g., easements, leases, and purchases) is delivered to agreed timeframes - At least 90% projects delivered to agreed timeframes per annum.

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

6.8 There will be no impact on the community by the decisions in this report. The wider Gateway to New Brighton project has been consulted on and resolutions passed by the Council to enable it to proceed.

6.9 The decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:

6.9.1 Coastal ward of the Coastal Burwood Linwood Community Board.

6.10 The Community Boards view on this specific matter has not been canvassed, however the Board is in general support of the Pages Road Bridge renewal project as evidenced by their submission to the Hearing Panel.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.11 The decisions in this report does not involve a significant decision in relation to ancestral land, a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does not specifically impact Mana Whenua, their culture, and traditions.

6.12 The decisions in this report are not a matter of interest to Mana Whenua and will not impact on our agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga.

6.13 The decisions to acquire land for the Pages Road bridge renewal project do not in themselves impact on mana whenua. The overall bridge project does impact on mana whenua and this impact has been addressed to date by the project team liaising with Mahaanui Kurataiao (MKT) and Nga e Wha (National Marae), staff will continue these discussions during the detailed design and construction phases of the project.

Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

6.14 The decisions in this report are likely to:

6.14.1 Contribute positively to adaptation to the impacts of climate change.

6.14.2 Contribute positively to emissions reductions.

6.15 This report contributes to the desired outcomes of the Pages Road Bridge renewal project which encourages use of active modes of travel, future proofs a section of the Avon-Otakaro Major Cycleway, encourages public transport and provides landscaping.

7. Next Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri

7.1 Prepare a survey plan identifying the land to be acquired.

7.2 Publish a notice of the Councils intention to take the land in the New Zealand Gazette under s23 of the Public Works Act 1981.

7.3 Make application to Land Information New Zealand to formally acquire the land through the publication of a notice in the New Gazette under s26 of the Public Works Act 1981.

7.4 Title issues in Councils name.

11. Southshore and South New Brighton Park Estuary Edge Protection and Flood Mitigation Project Tree Removal
Reference Te Tohutoro:	24/1909450
Responsible Officer(s) Te Pou Matua:	Dave Little, Manager Residential Red Zone
Accountable ELT Member Pouwhakarae:	Andrew Rutledge, Acting General Manager Citizens and Community

1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek Community Board approval of the tree removals associated with the Southshore and South New Brighton Park Estuary Edge Protection and Flood Mitigation project.

1.2 The report is staff generated, being supplementary to land use Resource Consents lodged with both the City and Regional Councils.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board:

1. Receives the information in the Southshore and South New Brighton Park Estuary Edge Protection and Flood Mitigation Tree Removal report.

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

3. Approves the removal of 373 trees and 93 groups of trees associated with the Southshore and South New Brighton Park Estuary Edge Protection and Flood Mitigation project and the replacement planting of 4248 ecosourced native species as mitigation.

3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1 The Southshore and South New Brighton Park Estuary Edge Protection and Flood Mitigation project by its nature requires a relatively significant number of tree removals.

3.2 The design team have set an alignment for the bund that minimises required tree removals, but removal of 373 individual trees and 93 groups remains necessary to carry out the works.

3.3 These trees are a mix of local, non-local and exotic species of varying condition ratings. Replacement planting of 4248 ecosourced native tree species is proposed as mitigation.

3.4 Removals are linked to the broader project, and would only occur as part of the works, which are currently subject to consent.

4. Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1 The Southshore and South New Brighton Park Estuary Edge Protection and Flood Mitigation project seeks to install a new bund through the Southshore red zone as well as South New Brighton Park for flood management purposes. The project also seeks to install a mix of rock revetment, cobble beach and (limited) gabion baskets along the coastal edge to protect the bund and land generally.

4.2 Construction of both structures will affect existing trees. As this is a large project extending close to 3km in length, quite a number of trees are impacted – particularly in South New Brighton Park where the route runs through established stands of Pine and Macrocarpa trees.

4.3 The project is currently in the consenting phase, so is not yet guaranteed to occur. The tree removals are linked to the project, so would only occur if the project as a whole moves ahead.

4.4 The bund design has taken tree impacts into account as a primary driver, and the alignment keeps removals to the minimum possible without reducing the level of flood protection. The results of a specific community consultation around trees of significance was also factored into both the alignment and landscaping plans. More detail on this is included in section 6.10.

4.5 The conflict of earth working with large structural root zone areas however has made it difficult to find an alignment where few removals are required. The image below illustrates the components that went into the assessment – the red ring being the structural root zone and the blue ring being the tree protection zone. The orange lines are top and bottom of the bund. Generally speaking, encroachment of 20% or more into the TPZ was seen as requiring the tree’s removal. So in the below example, T922 needs to be removed, while T918 is to be retained and protected during the works. These plans are provided in full at the back of the arborist report (Attachment B).

Figure 1: Indicative tree survey plan.

4.6 Turning to the numbers, Council policy states that if the trunk diameter at 1400mm is less than 100mm and the plant has not been deliberately installed by Council, it is deemed to be self seeded, and can be excluded from assessment. Accordingly, plants meeting this criteria have been removed from the list provided in Attachment A.

4.7 This leaves some 374 individual trees and a further 93 groups of trees impacted by the works and scheduled for removal in the arborist report. The majority of these are in South New Brighton Park, where the proposed bund runs through a large stand of pine and macrocarpa, with some regenerating native species underneath.

4.8 Of these, 63 trees and 7 groups of trees are recommended for removal due to poor condition rating. These are trees that are likely to either present a hazard in future, due to declining health or structural reasons. A further 8 trees are noted in the assessment as weedy or potentially weedy in the coastal environment.

4.9 This means that we have 303 trees and 86 groups of trees that would not otherwise need to be removed that are required for removal via the project for construction reasons. While not recommended for removal based on condition rating, 113 trees and 5 groups were noted as having a poor condition rating.

4.10 While this is a large number of tree removals, the design team and arborists have worked hard to create an alignment that minimises impacts. The removals required can now be considered the minimum needed to facilitate the requirements of the project. An example of the typical situation faced is shown below, at the end of Godwit Street. The scope of the project requires the bund to be as close to the coastal edge as possible, and here the combination of coastal edge works and bund necessitates a number of removals.

Figure 2: Trees at the end of Godwit Street

4.11 The collective canopy cover of the individual trees to be removed for construction reasons is around 12,000sqm. The total canopy of the affected tree groups is not listed in the report, but is estimated to be a further 3,000sqm.

4.12 Council’s Tree Policy requires a 2 for 1 replanting of any removals, and the total number trees recommended in the report for replanting is 4246. Detailed planting plans have not been prepared for the project, but the site area is large and fitting this number and more into the project will not be difficult. This is likely to be a condition of consent, and will be achieved via detailed design.

4.13 Assuming a similar average canopy radius to the removals, the replacement canopy cover would be around 160,000sqm. This will take around 5 to 10 years to fully achieve.

4.14 The full tree report is provided as Attachment B. This report includes all plants recommended for removal as part of the project. Plans are included at the back of that report, showing each tree’s structural root zone, overlaid against the bund alignment and other earth working areas.

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

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

· Carry out full removals as per the attached report, noting that the bund alignment was drawn up to minimise impacts on trees as far as possible.

· Carry out removals required for the bund and edge construction, but omit those relating to tree health and structure or weediness.

4.16 The following options were considered but ruled out:

· Do not deliver project, on the basis of tree removals. This was not considered as the local community lobbied Council for years to get the project funded and are expecting delivery.

· Remove only those trees physically within the proposed bund, and not those where the tree root protection zone overlaps. This was ruled out as the tree would likely decline/die over the coming years, introducing safety hazards and ongoing costs to Council for ad hoc removals.

· Tree spading selected species prior to carrying out the works. The species involved are generally not suitable for this, due to

v Being too large (i.e. the pines/macrocarpas)

v Being species which don’t often survive moving (i.e. cabbage trees/ngaio)

v Being exotics or north island species at odds with the broader ecological aims of the project.

Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.17 Preferred Option: Carry out full tree removals as per attached report

· Option Description: Removal of 374 individual trees and 93 groups of trees as required to construct the project and/or due to condition rating

· Option Advantages

v Project is delivered as scoped.

· Option Disadvantages

v Significant canopy removal (around 15,000sqm), which could generate concern for some residents.

4.18 Option 2: Carry out tree removals as per attached report, but excluding those recommended for removal due to poor asset condition or weediness.

· Option Description: Removal of 303 individual trees and 86 groups of trees as required to construct the project only.

· Option Advantages

v Reduced number of removals, by around 20%. It is likely that this reduction would not be significantly noticeable to the public on site, however ‘by the numbers’ it could look better.

· Option Disadvantages

v The trees flagged for removal due to poor asset condition are likely to decline over the coming years, leading to increased costs of removal over time. Removing and replacing these specimens as part of the project will result in more efficient and well planned delivery.

v The majority of these trees are pines, which can be quite expensive to remove outside of a larger project.

v Ad hoc removal over time would be an OPEX spend, as opposed to forming part of a capital project.

Analysis Criteria Ngā Paearu Wetekina

4.19 The analysis criteria used to determine the need for removals are expanded upon in the arborist report (Attachment B), and are summarised in the diagram below:

Figure 3: Criteria used to determine need for removals

5. Financial Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi

Capex/Opex Ngā Utu Whakahaere

	Recommended Option	Option 2 -Reduced removals
Cost to Implement	Approximately 150K	Approximately 1250K
Maintenance/Ongoing Costs	NA	Perhaps an average of 5K per year in reactive maintenance and removals
Funding Source	50/50 split between 562/003972 and 562/003990	50/50 split between 562/003972 and 562/003990
Funding Availability	On budget FY25-27	On budget FY25-27
Impact on Rates	Nil	Very minor impact likely as removals would come out of ongoing OPEX

5.1 The costs above are high-level estimates, rather than tendered prices. Costings will be completed at each stage of the project phase to ensure there is enough funding to cover the scope.

6. Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro

Risks and Mitigations Ngā Mōrearea me ngā Whakamātautau

6.1 There is a level of risk associated with removals of this nature, and these have been assessed against Council’s risk assessment protocols as below. Any risks not noted below have been assessed as insignificant.

6.2 Without mitigation controls, there is a likely minor reputational/image impact leading to an inherent medium risk overall. Controls to be used include communications and engagement around the need for the removals, and the mitigation planting proposed. Given the level of local support for the project generally, it is felt that this will reduce the reputational risk to low.

6.3 Without mitigation controls, there is a likely minor environmental impact leading to an inherent medium risk overall. Controls to be used include the species and extent of the mitigation planting proposed, and soil improvements to be carried out via the project to increase the growth rate, as well as returning the tree carbon to the soil. Technically however, the risk rating for this will remain medium, as short term impacts will be largely unavoidable. Over a longer timeframe however, the environmental impacts will be positive, due to the increased in canopy and replacement of an assemblage of exotic/non local species with ecosourced natives.

Legal Considerations Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

6.4 Statutory and/or delegated authority to undertake proposals in the report:

6.4.1 Part D (Section 42) of Council’s delegations register delegates Community Boards the powers to “determine to plant, maintain and remove trees on reserves within the policy set by the Council”

6.5 Other Legal Implications:

6.5.1 There is no legal context, issue, or implication relevant to this decision

Strategy and Policy Considerations Te Whai Kaupapa here

6.6 The required decision:

6.6.1 Aligns with the Christchurch City Council’s Strategic Framework. It will increase the city’s canopy (long term, noting short term impacts), and build trust and confidence on Council by delivering on a project seen as important to the local community. It will also increase climate resilience in the short-medium term, to allow the long term CHAP planning work to be undertaken.

6.6.2 Is assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by carrying out an assessment against CCC's Significance and Engagement Policy. Although there is high local interest in the project, the impacts of this decision are relatively low, as is the broader interest across the city. This results in a low significance score overall.

6.6.3 Is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies, notably the Urban Forest Plan which firstly seeks to protect existing canopy, and where not possible (as in this case), requires ‘2 for 1’ replacement planting. This has been achieved.

6.7 This report supports the Council's Long Term Plan (2024 - 2034):

6.8 Parks, Heritage and Coastal Environment

6.8.1 Activity: Parks and Foreshore

· Level of Service: 6.8.2.1 Increasing tree canopy in Parks - A net increase in total number of trees is achieved (1:2 replacement policy), with a minimum of 50% of the trees being medium to very large species

· Level of Service: 6.310.3 (Restoration Planting of Residential Red Zone Land). At least 0.5 ha of restoration planting per annum

Water Supply

6.8.2 Activity: Stormwater Drainage

· Level of Service: 14.0.11.2 (The Number of Flooding Events that Occur). <2 flooding events

6.9 This decision also helps to deliver LTP projects:

· 61615 (SW South New Brighton & Southshore Estuary Edge Flood Mitigation) and

· 62549 (Southshore and South New Brighton Estuary Edge Edge Erosion Management)

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

6.10 There is a high level of interest in this project in the local community, and the project has gone through an intensive community engagement process over a number of years, so the community will be familiar with the concept of tree removals associated with the project, although they will be less aware of the exact scope and scale.

6.11 As part of this engagement, we held an online survey between 8-18 September 2023 where people could place pins on specific trees and add comments or photos noting their significance for any reason. These results were then fed back to the design team for consideration.

6.12 During this period, a total of 33 pins were placed with comments – around 25 of which related to trees. Once double ups were removed, 20 individual trees were noted. The significance was typically highlighting important stands of trees, habitats or notable individual specimens, rather than any particular personal connection to any tree.

6.13 Of these 20, 9 will require removal via the project due to construction impacts. Some of these appear possible to relocate, notably trees 481 and 460 (Pohutakawa), 629 and 630 (Olives) and 94 (Nikau), as well as the Phoenix Palms. This will be explored during the detailed design phase.

6.14 The others are not possible/desirable to relocate due to either size and poor condition (Eucalyptus and Ngaio).

6.15 The remaining 11 trees on the pin list are to be retained.

6.16 Many residents have viewed the consent plans, which include details of the proposed tree removals. The only negative views that Council are aware of to date involved some errors in the Arborist Assessment relating to agreements made during the design process. These have now been rectified, with the changes reflected in the attached documents. While not everyone with an interest will have viewed the plans, and we note the reputational risk as discussed earlier, we believe that concerns will be relatively limited due to:

· The importance of the broader project to the community

· The extensive consultation carried out over a number of years

· The overall increase in tree planting; and

· The long-term ecological benefits of the replacement of exotic/non local vegetation with ecosourced native species.

6.17 The decision affects the following wards/Community Board areas:

· Waitai Coastal-Burwood

6.18 The Community Board view is sought via this report, noting that the Board are supportive of the project generally.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.19 The decision involves a significant decision in relation to ancestral land, a body of water or other elements of intrinsic value, therefore this decision does specifically impact Mana Whenua, their culture, and traditions.

6.20 The decision involves a matter of interest to Mana Whenua and could impact on our agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga.

6.21 The Ihutai Estuary is one of the most culturally significant areas within the flatlands due to its history as a mahinga kai resource, and is subject to the MR900 claim. Via the project, Mahaanui Kurataiao advised that the Ihutai Ahi Whenua Trust held mana whenua and would provide advice on the project. The team worked closely with representatives of the Trust as the designs progressed. We are seeing written approval of the Trust, but this has not yet been supplied.

Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

6.22 The decisions in this report are likely to:

6.22.1 Contribute positively to adaptation to the impacts of climate change. This project will provide mitigation of increasing hazards over the next 20 years, while building trust in the local community, increasing the likelihood of meaningful engagement with the CHAP process.

6.22.2 Contribute positively to emissions reductions. This will be via chipping and turning the vegetative material into biochar, and incorporating it back into the soil where it will be permanently sequestered. A minimum of 4246 new native species will then be planted, sequestering further emissions.

7. Next Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri

7.1 If these recommendations are accepted, the next step would be approval of the city and district consents (unrelated to this approval, but in progress). Detailed design would then be carried out, where we will seek to reduce the number of removals further, followed by tendering and physical works.

1.1 This report provides the Board with an overview of initiatives and issues current within the Community Board area.

1.2 This report is staff-generated monthly.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board:

1. Receives the information in the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board Area Report - February 2025.

3. Community Support, Governance and Partnership Activity

3.1 Community Funding Summary

3.1.1 For the Board’s Information, a summary is provided (refer Attachment A) on the status of the Board’s 2024-25 funding as at 21 January 2025.

3.1.2 Youth Development Fund

Board members with the delegation for the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board Youth Development Fund (Jo Zervos, Greg Mitchell and Paul McMahon) made one decision under delegation:

· A grant of $300 to Brooklyn Schreiner to attend the Australian Scout Jamboree in Maryborough, Queensland, Australia.

3.1.3 Te Pā o Rākaihautū, a kura-ā-iwi school in Linwood, has claimed victory at the prestigious Zayed Sustainability Prize awards in Abu Dhabi.

Recognised in the Global High Schools category, the school impressed judges with its innovative “Puku Māra” project, combining Māori cultural practices with modern sustainability solutions, including composting and land restoration.

Te Pā o Rākaihautū is a whānau-based pā wānanga (community learning village) that integrates mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge) and cultural practices into its educational approach.

In 2024, a group of eight Year 13 students submitted an application for the Zayed Sustainability Prize 2025. The students were Te Rā Hangu, Lewis, Saffron, Ewan, Kiritiana, Kahia, Mahinarangi and Keala.

The school found out they were finalists for the award in November, leaving very little time to raise the funds needed to travel to Abu Dhabi for the ceremony. Being nominated for the award is a momentous achievement and recognising this, the Waitai Community Board resolved to support the group with a grant of $3,500 towards the travel costs, so that they could attend. And they won!

The Zayed Sustainability Prize is the UAE’s global award that recognises and rewards small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), nonprofit organisations (NPOs), and global high schools with impactful, innovative, and inspiring sustainable solutions. The school competed against finalists from Beijing and Fiji in the Asia and Pacific region.

Te Pā o Rākaihautū wins US$150,000 (NZ$267,167). The prize will allow the school to fully realise their vision of building an 8 hectare garden and composting operation on their new site. More importantly though, winning the Zayed Sustainability Prize means that their tamariki, culture and way of life is being acknowledged as a vital part of the World's future, sharing its impact nationwide.

3.1.4 The Loft organised a 'Cozy Holiday Giveaway' early December which was a heartwarming success with over 100 members of the community coming through to pick up donations of sheet sets, towels, kids' pyjamas, toys and more.

Acknowledging that Christmas can be a challenging time of year for whānau, the Loft wanted to make a meaningful difference and help make this time of year a little easier, and sharing some holiday spirit with their community.

3.1.5 Linwood Avenue Community Corner Trust Christmas Lunch

The team at LACCT were joined by over 70 people for their final community lunch of 2024. It took two days to cook and prepare everything ready for 11 December, as well as a lot of mahi from the volunteers who worked tirelessly to get everything ready to receive their guests.

The Community Lunch is just one of the services LACCT offer each week. Wednesdays 12-1pm volunteers prepare and serve nutritious meals for just $5 which include a main meal and dessert. With a new menu each week, the lunch not only provides an affordable meal for community to look forward to, but also an opportunity to socialise and connect with others, helping to mitigate social isolation.

3.1.6 Summer Splash '24 Xmas Pool Party

The event team at Youth and Cultural Development held the last of the year series of Fresh Pool Parties on 13 December 2024 at Te Poe Toetoe.

The FRESH events are designed to break down common barriers to participation by being free, locally accessible, regular and co-designed to meet the unique needs of the young people involved. The events crested a safe and welcoming environment where rangatahi could engage in physical activities while also receive essential wrap-around support. This support ensured that young people not only enjoyed the recreational aspects of the events, but also felt seen and valued in all aspects of their lives.

By combining active recreation with comprehensive support service, the FRESH Pool Parties have fostered positive, lasting connections within the community, encouraging healthy lifestyle, emotional resilience and social connection for rangatahi who may otherwise face significant barriers to engagement and well-being.

3.1.7 The New Brighton Community Gardens' end-of-year 'thank you' lunch.

The event recognised the efforts of its volunteers, staff, and supporters, who do an outstanding job working with various groups and individuals in the community.

3.1.8 Burwood Pegasus Community Watch Volunteer Recognition Lunch

Volunteers from the Burwood Pegasus Community Watch gathered at All Saints Church to acknowledge the contributions and achievements that the Watch has made to their community over the year. The watch is organised by a committed group of volunteers who coordinate, managing and source funding to ensure the smooth operation of the numerous patrols that are undertaken each week, providing valuable insights to NZ Police and reassurance for vulnerable community members.

3.1.9 Te Whare Taonga O Ngā Iwi Katoa Christmas Lunch

The staff and volunteers of Linwood Resource Centre, the Community Shed and Gardens came together to celebrate the coming end of the year and reflect on all they achieved in 2024.

The whare and gardens are run together by a committed Linwood Resource Centre Board of volunteers and Christchurch City Mission who employ the Facility Manager and Men’s Community worker roles. The Christmas Lunch was a chance to celebrate this partnership, thank the volunteers and enjoy the magnificent spread of kai, much of which as fresh form the gardens.

3.1.10 Linwood Pasifika Community Garden Summer Programme

Throughout the Summer break the Linwood Community Garden has been hosting a Pasifika Gardening session on Wednesdays to bring together local Matua and Tamariki. With Four of the Five dedicated Pasifika Garden Beds now in place there is plenty on offer to get the hands in the soil and results are already on show with the Taro patch progressing well, tomato plants, spring onions and cucumbers are also growing strong.

The project spans beyond the garden and with podcasting sessions now started allowing the Tamariki and Matu to engage and share stories, learnings and giving the opportunity to reflect on life in the Islands and how it compares to life in New Zealand.

3.1.11 Parklands Community Centre Mural

A new mural has been completed at the Parklands Community Centre, adding a more local feel to the space. The Parklands/Queenspark Network ran a naming competition, with a Parkview School student winning with the name 'Parky.' To celebrate, the student won a BBQ Day at school, that will be delivered by the local police. This mural is one of the outcomes of the 2022 youth audit; “incorporating murals and art installations into the space, particularly those that reflect the local community”.

3.2 Participation in and Contribution to Decision Making

3.2.1 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]

· Te Kete Wānanga o Ihutai Linwood Library's 'Cup of Tea'

The popular Linwood Library 'Cup of Tea' event was back, Friday 6 December with a huge turnout from the community.

The staff at the library put on a spread and served teas and coffees to participants who ranged from residents, library users, community workers, social services, Elected Members and other Council staff.

The 'Cup of Tea' initiative continues to be a big hit at Eastgate Mall, providing connection for those who are socially isolated, networking opportunities for community organisations and council staff, and a chance for all involved to get to know their fellow Linwood residents.

· Avon Park Redevelopment

The first play and recreation space in the OARC Regeneration Plan was officially opened on Thursday 5 December 2024.

The kaitiaki team and kapa haka group from Whītau school came to test the play area out. Some of the students have been involved at the park for the last three years mulching, planting and helping out on site.

Work is continuing on the lower portion of the park, and new areas will be opened up in the coming months – starting with the basketball court in January 2025. The City to Sea Path connection, pump track, exploratory trails and large swing will be opened around the middle of the year with the entire park being planted out and completed around October 2025.

The new path through the centre of the park will form an integral section of the City to Sea Pathway, from Snell Bridge through to Kerrs Reach.

The lower terrace of the park will be returned to a low-lying native wetland, and the upper terrace of the park will include a new playing field, basketball court, accessible playground, pump track and communal picnic areas.

The section of Avonside Drive between Kerrs Road and Snell Bridge will be closed permanently, allowing a direct connection from the wetland area through to the river.

· St John’s Boot Fair

St Johns Anglican Church in Woolston held a Summer Fair on Saturday 7 December 2024. Setting up in their main hall, but with stalls cascading outside round the grounds, a team of volunteers lead by St John’s Community Coordinator pulled together a variety of stalls offering kai, inu, plants, bric-a-brac, books, clothes and toys.

The event provided another great opportunity for the Woolston Community to come together, enjoy the sunshine and grab a bargain. All the proceeds are invested back into the community programmes that St Jonh’s deliver.

· 23AFFIRM Saturday 7 December 2024

The 23^rd Aranui Family Festival event on Wainoni Park to celebrate the local hapori had a great turnout, with amazing stage acts and a great range of activities for the whole whānau to try out. Council staff were present to talk to a variety of Council services including Aranui Library and Outreach, Gear Up Ōtautahi, Resource Recovery recycling info and information from the Community Resilience Co-ordinators in the Civil Defence and Emergency Management team.

The Resource Recovery stall had around 70 engagements with attendees of the 23AFFIRM event. The majority were from the Aranui community but there were also residents from Woolston, Linwood and New Brighton. The interactions were positive with Aranui residents commenting that the hand delivered bin lid sticker drop earlier in the week was appreciated. This initiative had been suggested by the Aranui Community Trust. There was increased interest from residents since last year’s event, in alternative recycling schemes to divert waste from the red bin to free up capacity. We ran a small bin sorting game which was extremely popular with children, and this showed that their bin sorting knowledge was above average.

· New Brighton Safety Panel Hui

The New Brighton Safety Panel includes representatives from local social service agencies, community organisations, business representatives, local Police, Member of Parliament, Christchurch City Council, and local Community Board Members. The group are working together to make the New Brighton community safer; they will be meeting once a month to discuss and work on key priorities. At the most recent meeting the group identified the following priorities:

· Advocate for enhancing police visibility and improving liquor ban enforcement. As well as liquor ban areas being well identified.

· Support outreach services to connect into the New Brighton area for vulnerable groups.

· Strengthening connections with local organisations to address safety needs.

· Civil Defence Emergency Management – Community Workshop

On 12 December, Civil Defence Emergency Management (CDEM), in partnership with Disabled Persons Assembly NZ (DPA), hosted an Emergency Preparedness Hui in New Brighton. This was the third hui held this year, with New Brighton chosen as the location based on DPA’s recommendation, as many members of the disabled community reside in the area and face heightened vulnerabilities during emergencies.

The hui addressed key challenges faced by disabled individuals during emergencies, such as difficulty hearing the Emergency Mobile Alert (EMA) or tsunami siren, challenges in organising evacuations, and physical barriers to performing actions like "Drop, Cover, and Hold" during an earthquake. Social isolation and a lack of confidence in connecting with neighbours were also highlighted as barriers to preparedness.

Attendees included leaders from disabled service organisations, parents of disabled children, and disabled individuals themselves.

3.3.1 Palmers Road Public Forum – Report Back

At its meeting on 9 September 2024, the Board received a public forum presentation from local resident Daniel Thomas in relation to safety concerns on Palmers Road as well as seeking the installation of painted speed signs and a speed hump on the approach to the bend on Palmers Road. The Board decided to refer the issues raised to staff for investigation and response. For the Board’s information, staff have provided the following response:

Summary

Mr Daniel Thomas approached the Board with concerns for vehicle speeds (specific to the bend) on Palmers Road made the following requests:

a) A speed hump 40m prior to bend (Bower Ave end)

b) SLOW DOWN painted on road

c) (Warning) signage to slow down before bend

d) Concrete blocks in front of (our) fence to reduce impact on children if someone comes off the road

Response

Item a)

Traffic calming measures such as speed humps are not specifically funded in Council’s Long Term Plan. This currently falls within our Minor Road Safety and Minor Safety Interventions programme budgets, which we are required to allocate to safety improvements at the worst sites/intersections for reported death and serious injury crashes.

We receive a number of these requests, and due to the availability of limited funding, locations with historically a higher number of injury crashes or higher crash risk are prioritised.

Staff have checked the latest data for this street:

· There have been no speed related crashes on Palmers Road within the last 10 years. Out of the 8 crashes recorded for the entire length of Palmers Road (within the last 10 years), two, non-injury crashes occurred between the Bowhill Road/Bower Ave section, neither were within close proximity to the bend and/or related to the geometry of the road.

· A midblock traffic count taken in 2018 shows the average speed of vehicles travelling on Palmers Road is 50.4km/hr. Following initial concerns raised by Mr Thomas, an up-to-date traffic count was requested and carried out closer to the relevant bend. This investigation found that the average speed in this location is 43.9km/hr and that at least 85% of vehicles are travelling below 50.5km/hr. In an area where the posted speed limit is 50km/hr these results are considered very positive.

Considering the combination of these factors, at this time, this location isn’t identified as a high risk area, therefore we are unable to investigate traffic calming measures. Speeding or antisocial road users are best targeted through Police enforcement.

Item b)

Council generally do not paint messages/warnings on (local) streets. It has been found that where this has occurred (not necessarily in Christchurch City), messages have largely been ignored and it is therefore considered an ineffective use of resources.

Item c)

Currently, staff do not consider that curve warning signs are required in this location.

The Traffic Control Device Manual, 2008 (TCD) warns against the proliferation of signs as when they are frequently seen or become common, drivers are more likely to ignore the same messages in high-risk locations where it is most necessary to get the point/s across. The TCD also states that ‘traffic signs are unlikely to be an effective long term solution for problems caused by road geometry inadequacies’.

It is therefore part of the decision making process for installation of warning signs, to consider the wider context of the street.

For example, a collector road with similar curvature and/or a significant slope of the road may be considered for warning sign/s as it is expected there would be a larger volume of traffic driving in the location, more drivers would be unfamiliar with the road geometry and therefore (particularly including any slope) the risk of crash would increase.

However, on a local street such as Palmers Road where there are less vehicles travelling it is expected that most traffic relates to local resident access, drivers are generally more familiar with the environment and there is less risk (with no slope to the road), adding signage is likely to have little or a negative overall impact.

NZTA guidance also advises that curve warning signs may be installed in situations where the curve is deceptive and not obvious to approaching drivers. In this location, the centreline provides some guidance as to the geometry of the road.

Item d)

Council do not provide concrete bollards/barriers for crash protection.

Mr Thomas may wish to purchase privately owned blocks however, in this specific location, any measures such as this would need to be placed on the inside of the fence as the private fencing falls directly on the property boundary as seen highlighted in the image below:

Placing them on the public side would obstruct the footpath and restrict access for pedestrians.

3.3.2 Rawhiti Golf Links Public Forum – Report Back

At its meeting on 11 March 2024, the Board received a public forum presentation from Daphne McCurdy to advocate for a golf-ball protection fence inside the northern boundary of Rawhiti Golf Links in the areas not protected by trees between Tonks Street and Shaw Avenue.

The Board decided to refer the issues raised to staff for investigation and response back to the Board. Staff have provided the following response:

A site visit was conducted on 16 October 2024 with Daphne and the local Community Development Advisor. During the visit, Daphne expressed her safety concerns regarding the requested safety fence setback off the boundary to mitigate the safety risk of golf balls landing in private property, and to allow safe pedestrian passage along the edge of the golf course for the public.

Regarding increased fencing to protect properties from golf balls to my knowledge, it is not standard practice for the council to cover the costs of mitigating this hazard, nor is it budgeted in the current Long Term Plan (LTP) cycle. However, landowners adjacent to the club may also request a shared contribution for such fencing, as per the Fencing Act, and council could consider this on a case-by-case basis.

The requested pathway and protection of it, which is currently informally used, is located on leased land (exclusive use lease to the Rawhiti Golf Club), and unfortunately, council does not have the budget to construct a path or a safety fence. There are safer and viable alternative routes along the nearby Bowhill Road. While this route may not be as appealing, it is safer and would not require any capital expenditure or change to the current lease agreement with the Golf Club. Our recommendation to the board is that, at this stage, we should not be further investigating the construction of a pathway and fencing along the northern boundary of Rawhiti Domain (within the Golf Course lease). This could be revisited in the future when the golf course lease is reviewed, but it is unlikely that the council officer's advice will change.

During the site visit, we also spoke to two other property owners/residents adjacent to the golf course. Both were opposed to the construction of any fencing or pathway along the boundary of their properties.

To help mitigate the health and safety concerns raised, we will improve signage along this boundary, informing users that it is not a public pathway and highlighting the risk of entering the golf course.

While we acknowledge that the pathway was shown as a possible option in the 2006 Rawhiti Landscape Plan, it is unbudgeted and subject to safety assessments. Pathways outside the golf course lease area are likely to take priority and would be simpler to implement if funding becomes available.
