1. Detail Te Whakamahuki
|
Timing |
This information session is expected to last for 20 minutes. |
|
Purpose / Origin of the Information Session |
The purpose of this information session is to update elected members on the changes to Council’s contestable funding for the 2025/26 financial year; including the new funding platform, SmartyGrants. Staff will also provide information on the range of community funding that is available to community organisations through Council. This information session is being provided in advance of a comprehensive review that will be presented to the incoming Council and Community Boards in late-2025. |
|
Background |
Council’s previous funding platform, Salesforce, was at the end of its lifecycle as an IT platform and was costing Council significant operational budget to maintain. The new funding platform, SmartyGrants is used by over half of the Territorial Local Authorities (TLA’s) across New Zealand (including Environment Canterbury and Auckland City Council), as well as various community trusts and funding providers. It is an industry-leading solution and a social-enterprise, with fees less than ¼ other competitive options available. Compared with the outgoing solution, SmartyGrants will bring a range of improvements to Council’s community funding schemes for the community organisations who apply, staff and elected members alike. Included as Attachment A, staff have provided a summary of the contestable and non-contestable funding schemes that are available to community organisations in Christchurch. The intention is to inform elected members of these offerings, so that in interactions with community organisations, quality advice can be provided. |
|
Key Points |
· Improved reporting capability. · Ease of application for groups, assessment for staff, and consideration for elected members. o SmartyFile o Mapping tool o Viewing previous applications o Ability to present a
cohesive picture of all Council funding · The impact on Community Board splits. · Presentations by groups before elected member considerations of contestable funding. · Clarification around funding of food, trustees, and other general criteria. |
|
Next Steps |
· A number of funds are already being administered through Smartygrants. Elected members will note an immediate improvement to the presentation of decision matrices and reports on grant-spend. · The remaining funds will be transferred to the new platform, before decommissioning Salesforce at the start of the new Financial Year. · Staff will collect and review community feedback on the changes made and adjust/improve the new platform and any processes iteratively over the coming year. |

|
Purpose / Origin of Briefing |
The purpose of this briefing is to update the Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board on the landscape plan for the development of the Pūrau Recreation Ground and Pūrau Foreshore Reserve, and the renewal of the public toilet prior to consulting with the community. This project is funded from: ID 18100 - Pūrau Foreshore and Reserves Project ID 65442 - Public Toilets Banks Peninsula Facilities Renewal |
|
Background |
The Pūrau Recreation Ground is located at 187R Pūrau Avenue and is adjacent Pūrau Stream. The Pūrau Foreshore Reserve extends along the eastern and western sides of Pūrau Stream on the seaward side of Pūrau Ave. The Council approved funding for the development of Pūrau Foreshore and Reserves in the FY24 – FY34 Long Term Plan (LTP). The public toilet block located within the Recreation Ground has been closed since the Canterbury Earthquakes. The toilets are a single storey unreinforced concrete masonry structure and have been classified as earthquake prone with a NBS of 25%. The site is currently serviced by two portaloo’s. We have developed a landscape plan that we are now ready to share with the community and seek their feedback. |
|
Key Issues |
· The existing toilet is earthquake prone (25%NBS) and closed to the public. · Accessibility into the Recreation Ground. · Ground conditions / stormwater / waterways/climate change. · Public parking. · Archaeology. · Playground equipment meets Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles and the NZ playground Standards - NZS 5825:2015. |
|
Next Steps |
· Seek feedback from the local community and stakeholders. · Update the landscape plan LP415601 Pūrau Foreshore & Reserves Development based on the feedback from the community. · Community Board approval of the landscape plan July 2025. · Detailed Design / Consents / Tendering. · Construction complete December 2025. |
