3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1 The Waitai Coastal-Linwood-Burwood Community Board approved the scheme design for Marine Parade (Hawke to Bowhill) Street Renewal in their meeting on 9 December 2024.

3.1.1 The substantive motion passed by the Waitai Coastal-Linwood-Burwood Community Board included a resolution that staff bring a report containing detailed traffic resolutions to the Community Board for approval before detailed design was completed.

3.1.2 It also included two resolutions for staff to carry out further investigation:

· moving the crossing point by the exit of the North Ramp further south.

· removing/reducing the kerb buildouts on Marine Parade by Lonsdale Street.

3.2 In line with the investigations resolved by the Community Board in the 9 December 2024 meeting, staff provided a Memo (Attachment B) with further information. This concluded that moving the crossing point was feasible, but the changes to the kerb buildouts would not bring the benefits suggested.

3.2.1 The crossing point, previously near the North Ramp carpark access, has been shifted south to be closer to He Puna Taimoana. This shift is reflected in the recommended option, Option A in this report.

3.2.2 Option B refers to the scheme design as approved in December 2024 and will include the changes made in line with the Scheme Safe System Audit as outlined in Section 0.

3.3 A Scheme Safe System Audit was carried out of the recommended design (Option A). This recommended a number of further changes to the design to improve safety and usability, which have been incorporated.

3.4 The staff recommended option is Option A, as this:

· Includes the changes to the crossing point requested by the Board.

· Incorporates minor changes to improve usability and safety as recommended by the Safe System Audit.

3.4.2 The changes to the design include some minor changes to layouts and extensions to special vehicle lanes (i.e. cycleways and cycle paths) from the previously approved design. Therefore, this will require approval by both the Community Board and Council.

3.5 If approved, the next step will be construction. This is planned to happen in Spring 2025, to avoid disruption to events and the summer peak for visitors to the area.

4. Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1 The Christchurch Regeneration Acceleration Facility (CRAF) is a funding package of $40 million from the Treasury for transport projects in Ōtautahi Christchurch. The purpose of the funding is to make a difference to affected communities by improving liveability and to support their ongoing regeneration.

4.1.1 The CRAF funding includes $30 million for targeted roading and transport improvements to deliver integrated safety, modal choice, and asset improvements. This was specifically to deliver projects in communities which experienced significant damage and disruption, or increased transport demand/travel use due to a change in travel patterns following the earthquakes. This funding has been allocated to five areas – New Brighton, Linwood/Woolston, Richmond, Riccarton, and Spreydon/Somerfield/Waltham/Beckenham.

4.1.2 New Brighton has been allocated $6.5 million from the overall budget. At the Waitai Coastal-Linwood-Burwood Community Board meeting on 12 September 2022, the Board resolved that the upgrade of Marine Parade from Hawke Street to Bowhill Road be allocated the largest portion of the funding.

4.2 On 9 December 2024, the scheme design for Marine Parade was approved by the Waitai Coastal-Linwood-Burwood Community Board.

4.2.1 The substantive motion resolved that a detailed traffic resolution report will be brought to the Community Board before the completion of detailed design.

4.2.2 Two further areas for staff investigations were requested as part of the substantive motion at this meeting:

· CCBCC/2024/00114: That staff investigate moving the crossing point by the exit of the North Ramp further south towards He Puna Taimoana.

· CCBCC/2024/00115: That staff investigate removing/reducing the kerb buildouts on the western side of Marine Parade by Lonsdale Street.

4.2.3 On 5 February 2025, Council approved the cycleway and shared path included in the scheme design for Marine Parade.

4.3 The results of these investigations were outlined in a memo delivered to the Community Board on 3 March 2025, and included as Attachment B. This concluded that:

· The change to the crossing point location was feasible, and would be brought to the Board for approval.

· Changes to the kerb buildouts would not bring the benefits suggested, so would not be brought forward as an option for approval.

4.3.2 A Scheme Safe System Audit was carried out of the amended design. This recommended the following further changes to the design, which have been incorporated:

· A short section of shared path is proposed on the west side of Marine Parade near the intersection with Hawke Street to encourage northbound cyclists to join the cycleway through the new crossing point rather than crossing Marine Parade outside He Puna Taimoana.

· A transition from the cycleway to the shared southbound lane on Marine Parade will be provided near He Puna Taimoana to discourage cyclists from travelling on the footpath after exiting the cycleway.

· No stopping lines added to the west side of Marine Parade immediately south of the new crossing point near He Puna Taimoana to both provide a kerb cutdown for cyclists and achieve safe sight distances for the crossing.

· Asphalt speed humps within the cycleway only are proposed either side of the North Ramp car park access to slow cyclists and reduce likelihood and severity of collisions with vehicles.

· Short sections of shared path have been added on the western side of Marine Parade and southern side of Bowhill Road near the intersection of the two streets in order to aid cyclists exiting the shared path on the eastern side of Marine Parade heading west at Bowhill Road.

4.4 The following related memos/information were circulated to the meeting members:

Date	Subject
03/03/2025	Marine Parade – Investigations Following Community Board Decision

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

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

4.5.1 Option A – Preferred Option: Move the crossing point further south

4.5.2 Option B: Request staff return the crossing point to its previously approved position adjacent to the North Ramp Car Park access ramp

Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.6 Preferred Option, Option A: Move the crossing point further south

4.6.1 Option Description: Approve the layout and detailed traffic resolutions as shown on Attachment A.

These relate to an amended version of the scheme design as approved in December 2024 following investigations requested by the Waitai Community Board and the scheme safety audit. Key features are:

· Relocating the new crossing point further south than the approved scheme towards He Puna Taimoana.

· No stopping lines immediately south of the new crossing point to provide improved sightlines for pedestrian safety.

· New kerb cutdown aligned with the above no stopping lines to allow northbound cyclists to use the new crossing point to access the cycleway.

· Southern end of cycleway is now one way southbound to avoid northbound cyclists crossing the southbound traffic lane.

· Kerb cutdown near He Puna Taimoana removed to avoid collisions between cyclists and pedestrians.

This would enable the project to proceed to construction, as well as enforcement of the previously approved design after construction is completed and achieve additional safety improvements for users of the shared path, cycleway, and crossing point near He Puna Taimoana.

4.6.2 Option Advantages

· This option aligns with requests made by the Waitai Coastal-Linwood-Burwood Community Board at the 9 December 2024 meeting.

· This option provides greater safety improvements for cyclists by reducing the distance that northbound cyclists must share the traffic lanes with cars.

· This option ensures that the changes to the road layout and markings associated with the street renewal project are enforceable.

· This option increases safety of road users.

4.6.3 Option Disadvantages

· This option removes an additional two parks from Marine Parade compared to the approved scheme design. This is due to the buildout required at North Ramp Car Park access to achieve visibility requirements

4.7 Option B: Request staff return the crossing point to its previously approved position adjacent to the North Ramp Car Park access ramp.

4.7.1 Option Description: This is mostly the layout approved by the Board, with the crossing point adjacent to the North Ramp Car Park access ramp. Changes made due to the safety audit will be included in both options.

This will require staff to return to the Waitai Coastal-Burwood-Linwood Community Board with detailed traffic resolutions at a future meeting.

4.7.2 Option Advantages

· This option retains one additional on street parking space on Marine Parade.

· This option increases safety of road users.

4.7.3 Option Disadvantages

· This option achieves lesser safety improvements for northbound cyclists, as they need to cycle a greater distance in the main traffic lane before joining the cycleway at the crossing point.

· This option requires staff to return with updated traffic resolutions at a future Community Board meeting.

Analysis Criteria Ngā Paearu Wetekina

4.8 The following factors were considered when recommending the Waitai Coastal-Linwood-Burwood Community Board proceed with the preferred Option A:

4.8.1 Option A aligns with the investigations and adjustments to the scheme requested by the Board.

4.8.2 Option A offers greater safety improvements for cyclists by reducing the distance they must share the traffic lane with vehicles before joining the bi-directional cycle lane.

4.8.3 Option A allows the project to proceed to construction sooner as there is no requirement for another Decision Report to approve detailed traffic resolutions. This will lessen the chances of constructing during summer, when the area sees higher visitor numbers.

5.1 The cost listed above is an estimate based on the scheme design stage, and is not a tendered price from a contractor.

6. Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro

Risks and Mitigations Ngā Mōrearea me ngā Whakamātautau

6.1 During the scheme design stage, the project team identified a potential risk relating to the potential requirement for a resource consent should the project encroach into the sand dunes where the shared path is to be constructed. To mitigate this, a high-level assessment was conducted in collaboration with CCC resource planners. This assessment aimed to ensure that the proposed works avoid triggering the need for consents, which could result in delays and increased costs. The design team are continuing to work alongside CCC resource planners throughout the detailed design phase regarding this risk.

Legal Considerations Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

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

6.2.1 Approval of the cycleway sits with Council as the delegated authority. This has previously been approved by Council at their meeting of 5 February 2025.

6.2.2 The Community Board has the delegated authority to exercise the delegations relevant to this report as set out in the Christchurch City Council Delegations Register (last updated March 2025).

6.3 Other Legal Implications:

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

Strategy and Policy Considerations Te Whai Kaupapa here

6.4 The required decisions:

6.4.1 Align with the Christchurch City Council’s Strategic Framework. Improving the safety of our roads aligns with the Strategic Priorities and Community Outcomes, in particular:

· Be an Inclusive and Equitable City;

· Build Trust and Confidence in the Council - the public consultation undertaken throughout this project has shown the Council listening to and working with residents;

· A Green, Liveable City – providing safe crossing points and facilities in New Brighton for people who walk and cycle will improve the accessibility and connectivity of our neighbourhoods and communities.

6.4.2 Are assessed as low significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy. The level of significance was determined by completing a Significance and Engagement Assessment.

6.4.3 Are consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies, in particular:

· LTP Activity Plan – Level of Service target to reduce the number of deaths and serious injuries (DSI) from all crashes by 40% in 2030.

· The changes made align with road safety and liveable streets goals in the Christchurch Transport Strategic Plan 2012-2042, and similarly in the draft Transport Plan (safe streets).

· The changes made align with Kia Tūroa te Ao – Ōtautahi Christchurch Climate Resilience Strategy as set out in the Climate Change Impact Considerations section below.

· Improving safety on local roads is a priority for the Council.

· A masterplan was developed for New Brighton as part of the suburban centres programme, and private investment is delivering on redevelopment within the main central area. This would lead to an increase in the number of people wanting to walk, cycle, and scooter to these developments and to cross the road to access the beach and Council facilities.

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

6.6 Transport

6.6.1 Activity: Transport

· Level of Service: 10.0.6.2 Reduce the number of death and serious injury crashes on the local road network - Five year rolling average <100 crashes per year.

· Level of Service: 10.5.1 Limit deaths and serious injury crashes per capita for cyclists and pedestrians - <=12 crashes per 100,000 residents.

· Level of Service: 10.5.2 Improve the perception (resident satisfaction) that Christchurch is a cycling friendly city - >=67%.

· Level of Service: 10.5.42 Increase the infrastructure provision for active and public modes - >= 625 kilometres (total combined length).

· Level of Service: 10.0.2 Increase the share of non-car modes in daily trips - >=37% of trips undertaken by non-car modes.

· Level of Service: 16.0.20 Maintain the condition of road carriageways - <=4,900 customer service requests.

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

6.7 This decision report is for the purpose of detailed traffic resolution approval. No additional engagement with the community has taken place.

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

6.8.1 Waitai Coastal-Linwood-Burwood Community Board.

6.9 The Community Board view is generally supportive of the project as expressed in their monthly report to Council in February 2025.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.10 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.

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

6.12 There is potential for an archaeological authority to be required due to the close proximity of the sand dunes and may involve consultation with Mana Whenua.

Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

6.13 The decisions in this report are likely to:

6.13.1 Contribute neutrally to adaptation to the impacts of climate change.

6.13.2 Contribute positively to emissions reductions.

6.14 This option helps reduce emissions by providing a bi-directional cycleway and shared path which will give residents the opportunity to walk or bike along the eastern side of Marine Parade.

6.15 Improving the ability for residents to travel through active modes or public transport safely are key parts of the Council’s emissions reduction effort. Improving the safety of these travel modes will address some of the barriers to residents making sustainable travel choices and reduce vehicle kilometres travelled.

7. Next Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri

7.1 Complete the detailed design package and commence construction.

Responsible Officer(s) Te Pou Matua:	Megan Pearce, Manager Democratic Services
Accountable ELT Member Pouwhakarae:	Helen White, General Counsel / Director of Legal & Democratic Services

1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek approval from the Council to amend the Central City Area deemed metropolitan (metro) marked on the Plan A map (Attachment A) and related delegations contained in the Council’s Delegations Register (the Register) and to confirm the impacted decision-making processes.

1.2 The report is staff-generated to provide for more efficient and effective decision-making and public participation for decisions related to the proposed area within the Central City. The current boundaries cross the Community Board, Central City Parking Restrictions Subcommittee and Council delegations.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Council:

1. Receives the information in the Plan A Metropolitan Delegations 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. Adopts the amended boundary for the Plan A metropolitan status map (option 1) as outlined by the blue line (inclusive of both sides of the road) as contained in Attachment A of this report which applies to the Roads and Traffic Management Controls; and Parks and Reserves sections of the Delegations Register.

4. Approves that the following roads (inclusive of both sides of the road) within the four Avenues within the Central City Area are deemed metropolitan status for the purpose of Roads and Traffic Management Controls within the Register of Delegations:

a. Deans Avenue, Moorhouse Avenue, Fitzgerald Avenue and Bealey Avenue.

b. Madras Street.

c. Barbadoes Street.

d. Durham Street (North and South).

5. Reconfirms the metropolitan status of Hagley Park.

6. Confirms that where a matter crosses the Plan A metropolitan status map boundary, the final decision be determined by the Council. Reports on these matters may go through the Community Board, on a case-by-case basis, as a Part A report to the Council.

3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1 Part D of the Council’s Delegations Register contains delegations from the Council to community boards, committees and other subordinate decision-making bodies. Included in Part D is a map (Plan A) which sets the boundary for an area within the central city deemed metropolitan status (metro).

3.2 The matters referred to in respect of the Plan A map are aspects of the Roads and Traffic Management Controls, and Parks and Reserves sections of the Register.

3.3 Currently, the only Community Board with an area within the Plan A map is the Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board (Waipapa Community Board). The Waipapa Community Board does not have delegated authority to make decisions within the Plan A area on the matters referenced above. Instead, reports on these matters may go through the Waipapa Community Board, on a case-by-case basis, as a Part A (to Council).

3.4 The current boundary of the Plan A map has led to confusion and inconsistent decision-making, particularly where there is split decision-making that goes across the Plan A boundary.

3.5 One key issue is that the Plan A map does not currently encompass enough of the central city to fully account for areas of metropolitan significance. As a result, recent decisions around Park Terrace; what is known as Hospital Corner; and Deans Avenue are examples where a consistent and clear decision-making process would have made for a more transparent and robust process.

3.6 Additionally, there have been significant changes within the central city since the Plan A boundary has been reviewed, most notably, One New Zealand Stadium at Te Kaha.

3.7 It is therefore recommended that the Council extends the proposed boundary for the Plan A map (Attachment A) and confirms the related decision-making process to account for the central city’s metropolitan significance, and to facilitate efficient governance and public participation for related decisions.

4. Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1 The Council’s Delegations Register currently provides that when a question arises about whether an issue is inherently local or has implications beyond the boundaries of a Community Board (i.e. metropolitan) then the following principles are considered:

4.1.1 The impact of the decision (does it extend beyond the community board area),

4.1.2 Effective decision-making (will the decision require alignment or integration with other decisions that are the responsibility of the Council),

4.1.3 The benefits of a consistent or co-ordinated approach in the Council’s district (will these outweigh the benefits of reflecting the particular needs and preferences of the communities within the community board area),

4.1.4 The significance of the activity (as assessed in accordance with the Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy).

4.2 A recommendation on the application of the above principles must first be raised with the General Manager for the activity proposed, then approved by ELT before being considered by Council.

4.3 There is, however, a fixed area/boundary within the central city dubbed the Central City Area or Plan A map area where the elected members resolved that all matters as they relate to Transport, Park/Reserves and leases will automatically go before the full Council. The current Plan A boundary is shown via a green line in Attachment A.

4.4 The Council first established the ‘Central City Area’ (plan A) map and retained the decision-making powers as they related to roads during the 1992-1995 term. In 2008/2009 this was reviewed and Council decision-making within the Plan A area was extended to parks and leases. The rationale for this was that the Plan A map area was of metropolitan significance to the wellbeing and growth of the city. It was considered that there was a need to consider issues within the area on a city-wide basis and to be able to respond without delay.

4.5 Consequently, the Waipapa Community Board doesn’t have delegated authority to make decisions within the Plan A area on matters referenced above. However, on 19 March 2025, the Council amended the Register to allow (case by case) for issues within the Plan A area to be presented to the Waipapa Community Board for consideration and recommendation via a Part A report to the Council for it to determine. Although this had been the previous practice, a strict interpretation of the Register would not have permitted this as the previous wording had stated the matter “must come directly to Council”. Matters within the Plan A map may now be considered by the Waipapa Community Board in the first instance.

4.6 To enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of Council decision-making, staff are now proposing to expand the Plan A area to include streets that are now considered metropolitan.

The preferred boundary and decision-making process

4.7 The current Plan A boundary is shown via a green line in Attachment A. The key areas which are not included and yet hold metropolitan significance and are recommended for inclusion are:

4.7.1 A gap between the boundary and Hagley Park, Victoria Street and Cambridge Terrace bound by Park Terrace/Rolleston Avenue and Montreal Streets.

4.7.2 Whilst is has long been held that Hagley Park holds metro status, for completeness, it would be appropriate to encompass the surrounding roads (including Deans Avenue, a further extended section of Moorhouse Avenue and roads to the north of Harper Avenue linking to Victoria Street).

4.7.3 The four avenues that surround the central city. Currently, Bealey Avenue, Rolleston Avenue, half of Fitzgerald Avenue and a section of Moorhouse Avenue are excluded, but it is recommended that they be given standalone metro status.

4.7.4 Key transport routes such as Barbadoes Street, Madras Street and other key routes entering and exiting the central city deemed arterial or primary collector roads should also be considered metro.

4.8 To provide for more efficient and effective decision-making and public participation, it is recommended that matters that cross the Plan A metropolitan status map delegation boundary, be determined by the Council. Reports on such matters may, on a case-by-case basis, go through the Community Board as a Part A report to the Council.

4.9 The decision-making process outlined above aligns with the provisions in the current Register in determining metro decisions and is recommended for the four boundary options described below.

The alternative option boundaries

4.10 An early preferred option (option 2) was to include the entirety of the central city bound by the four avenues as metro for both Parks & Reserves, and Roads & Traffic Management Controls (this would have been depicted by the orange line in Attachment A for both Parks and Transport aspects). This option was to recognise the metro significance of the major arterial routes surrounding the central city.

4.11 After receiving feedback from operational units and Community Board Chairs, the preferred option became the narrower version depicted by the blue line. It was recognised that there are smaller pocket parks in the north-eastern area and larger residential areas which should appropriately remain with the Community Board.

4.12 An alternative option (option 3) proposes amending the Plan A boundary to connect the current boundary with the east side of Hagley Park. This would extend green line (as shown in Attachment A) to include Park Terrace, Rolleston Avenue and Hagley Avenue. This change would provide a more cohesive and logical connection by incorporating key areas such as Victoria Street and Park Terrace, aligning them with the existing boundary at Hagley Avenue.

Options Considered Ngā Kōwhiringa Whaiwhakaaro

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

4.13.1 Option 1 (preferred): Amend the Plan A boundary to include Hagley Park and surrounding area (blue line in Attachment A) and confirm the related decision-making process.

4.13.2 Option 2: Amend the Plan A boundary to include Hagley Park and surrounding area and Bealey Avenue and Fitzgerald Avenue (orange line in Attachment A) and confirm the related decision-making process.

4.13.3 Option 3: Amend the Plan A boundary to join the current boundary with the east side of Hagley Park (extend green line to include Park Terrace, Rolleston Avenue and Hagley Avenue in Attachment A) and confirm the related decision-making process.

4.13.4 Option 4: Maken no change to the Plan A boundary (green line in Attachment A) and confirm the related the decision-making process.

4.13.5 Split decision-making process: All four options propose to adopt the preferred approach that, when a decision crosses the Plan A metropolitan map boundary, the final decision on the matter be determined by the Council. Reports on such matters may go through the Community Board, on a case-by-case basis, as a Part A report to the Council.

4.14 The following options were considered but ruled out:

4.14.1 Remove the Plan A boundary and not have a metro area in the city centre.

· This option was ruled out due to the city-wide, metro significance of the central city. It remains appropriate that decision making for this area sit with the Council/Committee of the Council.

Options Descriptions Ngā Kōwhiringa

4.15 Preferred Option: (Option 1) Amend the Plan A boundary to include Hagley Park and surrounding areas and confirm the related decision-making process.

4.15.1 Option Description: This option is depicted by the blue line in Attachment A. It includes the entirety of Hagley Park, including Little Hagley. It also includes the surrounding streets, encompassing both sides of the road. This option extends the coverage up Montreal Street to Bealey Avenue to include Victoria Street and Carlton Corner.

4.15.2 Option Advantages

· There is no gap between the current Plan A map and Hagley Park resulting in a streamlined and consistent decision-making process.

· Including the streets around Hagley Park will ensure that the park and bordering streets are deemed metro and are covered by the one decision making process.

· Having one decision-making process provides for a robust, clear and transparent process for elected member decision making and public participation.

4.15.3 Option Disadvantages

· The relevant Community Boards will no longer have delegated decision making within the extended map area. However, the relevant Community Board may still consider the matter and make a recommendation to the Council via a Part A report.

4.16 (Option 2) Amend the Plan A boundary to include the area bound by the four avenues for traffic matters only and confirm the related decision-making process.

4.16.1 Option Description: This option is depicted by the orange line in Attachment A. It includes the entirety of the area bounded by the four avenues (for traffic matters) and includes the whole of Hagley Park. The area as depicted by the blue line would govern delegations under Parks and Reserves.

4.16.2 Option Advantages

· This option recognises the metro significance of the major arterial routes surrounding the central city whilst balancing the residential nature of the north-east area of the map and the neighbourhood pocket parks contained within.

· This option still includes the entirety of Hagley Park and bordering streets.

· Having one decision-making process provides for a robust, clear and transparent process for elected member decision making and public participation.

4.16.3 Option Disadvantages

· There will be two different boundaries for different matters (Parks and Transport).

4.17 (Option 3) Amend the Plan A boundary to join the current boundary with the east side of Hagley Park and confirm the related decision-making process.

4.17.1 Option Description: This option extends the green line in Attachment A to include Park Terrace, Rolleston Avenue and Hagley Avenue. It includes the residential area between Montreal Street across the eastern boundary of Hagley Park. It also extends up to Bealey Avenue to incorporate Victoria Street and Carlton Corner.

4.17.2 Option Advantages

· This option includes the full eastern boundary of Hagley Park, extending up to Bealey Avenue. This amendment would include key areas such as Victoria Street and Park Terrace, ensuring a more cohesive and logical connection with the existing boundary at Hagley Avenue.

· Having one decision-making process provides for a robust, clear and transparent process for elected member decision making and public participation.

4.17.3 Option Disadvantages

· This option doesn’t include Riccarton Avenue which splits Hagley Park North and South and does not align with the metro significance of Hagley Park. This option does little to alleviate the split delegations around areas such as Hospital Corner.

4.18 (Option 4) No change to the Plan A boundary and confirm the related decision-making process.

4.18.1 Option Description: This option is depicted by the green line in Attachment A and is the current status.

4.18.2 Option Advantages

· Keeping the existing boundary means there is no change to implement.

· Community Boards may still elect to refer a decision to the Council if it consider that broader political considerations would be beneficial. Council officers may also seek to have a project deemed metro using the existing process in the Register.

· Regarding the decision-making process, having one process provides for a robust, clear and transparent process for elected member decision making and public participation.

4.18.3 Option Disadvantages

· The metro significance of Hagley Park and the surrounding roads remains unaddressed, leaving future boundary and split delegation issues unresolved.

· Issues relating to the gap between the boundary and Hagley Park, Victoria Street and Cambridge Terrace, bound by Park Terrace/Rolleston Avenue and Montreal Streets, remain.

· Does not support the metro status of four avenues that surround the central city.

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

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

6.6.1 Waipapa Papanui-Innes-Central Community Board.

6.6.2 Waipuna Halswell-Hornby-Riccarton Community Board.

6.6.3 Waimāero Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Community Board.

6.7 The proposal to amend the Plan A map was discussed with the Community Board Chairpersons on 15 May 2025. There was no consensus view, and the following feedback was provided:

6.7.1 Question as to why the Plan A map was originally put in place – It was explained the map was approved by the Council to confirm the metropolitan significance of the central city.

6.7.2 Support for keeping the metro significance of the Central City. However, also support for the suggestion that the transport aspects in areas between the blue and orange lines in the north/northeast section be defined by road rather than the area in totality.

6.7.3 Others did not support an extension to the current boundary and stated a desire to see the Plan A area reduced, or removed in its entirety, allowing for more local decision-making at the Board level.

6.7.4 The importance of the Central City / Four Avenues being of metro significance, as indicated in the District Plan, was noted. It was raised that Riccarton Avenue should also be made metro given it’s a main route with wider transport network impacts.

6.7.5 There was general support for the Part A recommendation processes, with the final decision to be made by the Council, where appropriate.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.8 The decision 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.

13. Procurement Policy 2025
Reference Te Tohutoro:	25/1176022
Responsible Officer(s) Te Pou Matua:	Luke Stevens, Head of Procurement & Contracts
Accountable ELT Member Pouwhakarae:	Bede Carran, General Manager Finance, Risk & Performance / Chief Financial Officer

1. Purpose and Origin of the Report Te Pūtake Pūrongo

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek the Council’s adoption of the Procurement Policy 2025 (Procurement Policy, refer Attachment A).

1.2 This report is being prepared to update the Procurement Policy as the existing policy is due for renewal.

2. Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That the Council:

1. Receives the information in the Procurement Policy 2025 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. Adopts the Procurement Policy 2025 (refer Attachment A to this report).

3. Executive Summary Te Whakarāpopoto Matua

3.1 Procurement encompasses all stages of acquiring goods, works, and services to support delivery of services and capital works. This includes identifying the procurement needs, such as assessing service gaps, technical requirements, timeframes, sourcing of contractors and providers, contract management and purchasing.

3.2 The Procurement Policy 2025 does not change substantively the existing policy (adopted in 2018, refer Attachment B). The Procurement Policy 2025 streamlines and modernises the existing policy integrating previously standalone principles such as fostering local business, environmental enhancement, and social equity into a broader compliance and strategic alignment framework. The compliance and strategic alignment framework comprise the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) Guidelines, the Local Government Act 2002 (LGA) and Council’s Strategic Priorities.

3.3 The Procurement Policy 2025 omits express provision on topics such unsolicited proposals and audit procedures. However, these are incorporated through flexible operational procurement rules and governance mechanisms. These provisions are better suited to being in the rules than a Policy to allow for changes to be made as required.

3.4 Emergency procurement, ethical standards, and community wellbeing are retained but integrated into a more concise structure that emphasises adaptability to evolving strategic priorities (refer para 6.5.7 for Council’s Strategic Priorities and how the Procurement Policy 2025 aligns).

3.5 Overall, the Procurement Policy 2025 is a principles-driven policy that aligns procurement with the Council’s current goals. Additionally, it is more agile as it allows the procurement rules to evolve to ensure they are aligned with Council’s strategic priorities without a need to change policy.

4. Background/Context Te Horopaki

4.1 Councils are required to comply with the OAG Guidelines, the LGA and Treaty of Waitangi obligations in their procurement activities. The Procurement Policy 2025 establishes the Council’s policy direction for how it will conduct procurement in a way that meets its legislative requirements.

4.2 The purpose of the Policy is to provide assurance that Council is committed to a legal framework that maintains robust procurement procedures and guidance that complies with OAG Guidelines, legislative requirements and aligns with the Council’s strategic priorities.

4.3 The Procurement Policy 2025 outlines specific mechanisms such as governance structures, staff training, conflict of interest management and provisions for urgent procurement. The Policy sets the framework for the rules and operational framework that staff apply when undertaking Procurement.

5. Financial Implications Ngā Hīraunga Rauemi

Capex/Opex Ngā Utu Whakahaere

5.1 There are no financial implications associated with adopting the Procurement Policy 2025.

6. Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro

Risks and Mitigations Ngā Mōrearea me ngā Whakamātautau

6.1 Risk: here is a risk that the Procurement Policy 2025 may not be sufficiently current, robust, or adaptable to reflect and respond to evolving best and established practices in procurement.

6.2 Mitigation: The Procurement Policy 2025 has been drafted in accordance with the LGA and the OAG Guidelines. It has also been reviewed by Council’s Policy Unit.

Legal Considerations Ngā Hīraunga ā-Ture

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

6.3.1 The Council can adopt policies, pursuant to the powers granted to it under the LGA, that guide the Council’s operations and service delivery.

6.4 Other Legal Implications:

6.4.1 The legal consideration is compliance with the LGA and the OAG Guidelines.

Strategy and Policy Considerations Te Whai Kaupapa here

6.5 The required decision:

6.5.1 Aligns with the Christchurch City Council’s Strategic Framework and Is consistent with Council’s Plans and Policies.

6.5.2 Is assessed as having low significance based on the Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.

6.5.3 The significance of adopting the Procurement Policy 2025 has been assessed in accordance with sections 76–79 of the LGA.

6.5.4 The Procurement Policy 2025 does not introduce material changes to the Council’s underlying procurement practices. It retains the core principles of accountability, transparency, value for money, and legal compliance, while updating the Policy framework to better reflect current legislative requirements, Treaty of Waitangi obligations, and alignment with the Council’s strategic priorities.

6.5.5 The changes are primarily to the structure of Policy and are procedural in nature, they are aimed at improving clarity, flexibility, and responsiveness to evolving Council objectives. The Procurement Policy 2025 continues to support existing operational practices and does not alter service levels, community outcomes or financial commitments.

6.5.6 Given the continuity of practice and the limited impact on the community or stakeholders, the Council considers the significance of this policy change to be low. Accordingly, a proportionate level of engagement has been undertaken, including internal consultation with relevant staff and governance representatives. Broader public consultation is not required.

6.5.7 This assessment supports the Council’s decision-making obligations under the LGA and ensures that the Procurement Policy 2025 can be adopted efficiently while maintaining transparency and accountability.

6.5.8 Section 6.1 of the Procurement Policy 2025 states that the Council will maintain operational guidance and processes that reflect current strategic priorities. It allows the Council to quickly respond to shifts in strategic focus—such as new climate goals, economic initiatives, or community wellbeing programs—without a requirement to overhaul the entire policy.

6.5.9 The Procurement Policy 2025 explicitly requires procurement to remain aligned with the Council’s strategic objectives, which are expected to evolve over time.

6.5.10 The Procurement Policy 2025 is aligned with a wide range of Council strategies e.g. Climate Leadership, Economic Ambition, Strengthening Communities Together. As these strategies evolve, the Procurement Policy can adapt through its operational rules.

6.5.11 The Council’s current strategic priorities are listed in the table below along with how the Procurement Policy 2025 aligns.

Community Impacts and Views Ngā Mariu ā-Hāpori

6.8 The Procurement Policy 2025 does not introduce material changes to the Council’s underlying procurement practices. It retains the core principles of accountability, transparency, value for money, and legal compliance, so there is limited impact on the community or stakeholders.

Impact on Mana Whenua Ngā Whai Take Mana Whenua

6.9 The decision 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.

6.10 The decision will not impact on our agreed partnership priorities with Ngā Papatipu Rūnanga.

6.11 The Procurement Policy 2025 is in accordance with the Council’s strategies for engaging with Mana Whenua i.e. Mana Whenua perspectives are integrated into Council decision-making, respected through early and meaningful engagement and visible in public documentation and governance processes.

Climate Change Impact Considerations Ngā Whai Whakaaro mā te Āhuarangi

6.12 The decisions in this report are likely to:

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

6.12.2 Contribute positively to emissions reductions.

6.13 The Procurement Policy 2025 supports climate change adaptation and emissions reduction by aligning procurement practices with the Council’s strategic priorities, including sustainability and climate leadership. It mandates that procurement contribute to environmental well-being under the LGA and encourages support for local businesses and sustainable practices. The Procurement Policy 2025 also integrates lifecycle thinking, including asset disposal and repurposing, and is guided by related strategies such as the Climate Leadership Strategy and Resilient Greater Christchurch Plan, ensuring procurement decisions promote low-emission, climate-resilient outcomes.

7. Next Steps Ngā Mahinga ā-muri

7.1 The final approved Procurement Policy 2025 will be published on the Council internet and intranet sites as soon as possible, with targeted steps to notify sections of the Council most affected.

7.2 Any Internal policies will be marked as such in the Procurement Policy 2025. The operational rules are on the Council’s staff intranet.
