Officer Recommendations Ngā Tūtohu

That Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board:

1.        Receives the information in the 177 Pūrau Avenue return by way of transfer to Te Hapū o Ngati Wheke Report.

2.          Notes that:

a.      The decision in this report is assessed as medium significance based on the Christchurch City Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy.

b.      The property at 177 Pūrau Avenue is not Crown derived nor is there any offer back obligations under section 40 of the Public Works Act 1981.

c.       If, following consultation, it is determined that transfer of the property at 177 Pūrau Avenue is the appropriate course, the process to revoke the property’s current reserve status would need to be followed to achieve an unencumbered fee simple title capable of transfer.

3.        Endorses the proposed engagement approach to consider the proposal to return the property at 177 Pūrau Avenue by way of transfer to Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke outlined in Attachment A.

Recommend to the Council that it resolves to:

4.        Consult with the community in relation to the proposal by Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke to transfer the property at 177 Pūrau Avenue comprising 1381 m2 held in record of title 841068 and legally described as Reserve 4622 for the consideration of $1 to Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke.

5.        If no objections, or other considerations that might require a change in the process, are received through the consultation process, authorise the Manager Property Consultancy to:

a.          Revoke the reserve status of the property at 177 Pūrau Avenue through the required process in the Reserves Act 1977 and state the reasons for doing as being that the reserve purpose and status is inconsistent with the cultural history and significance of the property and/or the protection and recognition of urupā on or around the site, and any further reasons established through the consultation process;

b.          Deal exclusively with Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke in relation to the transfer of the property at 177 Pūrau Avenue on the basis that there is a clear reason to do so under the Disposal of Council Property Policy 2000, specifically that the exclusive dealing:

i.         Establishes appropriate ownership control and use of the land that supports the cultural history and significance of the site and/or the protection and recognition of urupā on or around the site.

ii.        Urupā have been identified on or around the site, and the cultural history and significance of the site and surrounding area means that disposal to any other party or making it available for other Council purposes would be culturally insensitive and would not meet the Council’s obligations under the Te Tiriti o Waitangi as it applies to the administration of reserve land.

iii.       Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke is the only logical and rightful owner of the land as mana whenua and kaitiaki of the urupā.

iv.       Achieves the Council’s Strategic Framework objectives.

v.        Any further reasons established through the consultation process.

c.          Return by way of transfer to Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke the property at 177 Pūrau Avenue comprising 1381 m² held in record of title 841068 and legally described as Reserve 4622 for the consideration of $1, subject to a condition that Te Hapū o Ngāti Wheke will initiate a process to apply to the Māori Land Court to obtain designation of 177 Pūrau Avenue as a Māori Reserve under Te Ture Whenua Māori Act 1993.

6.        If any objections, or other considerations that might require a change in the process, are received through consultation, delegate to Te Pātaka o Rākaihautū Banks Peninsula Community Board, the authority to hear and determine the submissions and objections.
