Limit Review - Deliberations

Engineering Adviser, Sue McAuley, and Transport Planner,
Waheed Ahmed, presented the report.
Ms McAuley explained the amendment to clause one of the
officer recommendation, aligning the description of the area of Waimea Road
for which the speed reduction was proposed with the wording in the Speed
Limits Bylaw. She added that paragraph 7.1 of the report should state
that three, rather than four, options had been considered.
Attendance: Councillor Acland joined the meeting at
10.22a.m.
Ms McAuley and Mr Ahmed answered questions regarding the
relationship between the proposed speed reduction area and the proposed
intersection of Princes Drive and Waimea Road, safety considerations and
potential traffic effects relating to the proposed speed limit reduction,
historical reasons for the 70kph portion of Waimea Road, and past approaches
to Council to consider lowering the speed limit in this area.
Attendance: Councillor Skinner left the meeting from

REPORT R9841
Nelson
Regional Sewerage Business Unit 2019/20 Business Plan
1. Purpose of Report
1.1 To receive,
consider and either approve the Draft Nelson Regional Sewerage (NRSBU) 2019-20
Business Plan (Business Plan) with or without conditions or to provide feedback
to the NRSBU Acting General Manager to take back to the NRSBU Board for
consideration.
2. Recommendation
|
That
the Works and Infrastructure Committee
1. Receives
the report Nelson Regional Sewerage Business Unit 2019/20 Business Plan
(R9841) and its attachment
(A2165220).
|
Recommendation to Council
|
That the Council
1. Approves the
Nelson Regional Sewerage Business Unit 2019/20 Draft Business Plan
(A2165220), noting that the increase in operational funding can be catered
for in the 2019/20 financial year.
|
3. Background
3.1 The NRSBU was
established by the Nelson City Council (NCC) and Tasman District Council (TDC)
in July 2000. Its purpose is to manage and operate the wastewater
treatment facility at Bell Island and the associated reticulation network
efficiently and in accordance with resource consent conditions and to meet the
needs of its customers.
3.2 A Memorandum of
Understanding (MoU) has been signed by both Councils, as required, and this MoU
requires that a Draft Business Plan for each financial year (commencing 1 July)
be presented to both Councils annually by 31 December.
3.3 The NRSBU will
then consider any comments from the Councils before finalising the Business
Plan and presenting the final Business Plan to both Councils by March the
following year.
4. Discussion
4.1 The NRSBU Board
considered the current 2019/20 NRSBU Business Plan presented by the Acting
General Manager and resolved on 8 March 2019 as below:
“Approves the draft Nelson Regional Sewerage Business
Unit Business Plan 2019/2020”.
4.2 The Draft
2019/20 Business Plan was received by NCC officers from the Acting General
Manager of the NRSBU on 29 March 2019 (refer to Attachment 1). That, according
to the MoU, is three months late.
4.3 This 2019/20
Business Plan was substantially delayed as a result of the additional work
required to the previous 2018/19 Business Plan that was sent back to the Acting
General Manager and the NRSBU Board to include work around this Council’s
Long Term Plan and its environmental aspirations. That previous 2018/19
Business Plan was presented to the Works and Infrastructure Committee in
September 2018, and was approved by the Committee on 15 November 2018 and
approved by Council on 13 December 2018.
4.4 The Draft
2019/20 NRSBU Business Plan, according to the MoU, was to be presented to the
Committee in December 2018. As a result of the delay resulting from the 2018/19
Business Plan and only receiving the draft Business Plan in March 2019, the
figures in the 2019/20 Draft NRSBU Business Plan did not make it into the NCC
2019/20 Draft Annual Plan. The result of this is a deficit of around $230,000
in the NCC wastewater activity and this is not catered for.
4.5 Looking ahead,
and in order to prevent a recurrence, the Acting General Manager has been
requested to commence work on the Draft 2020/21 Business Plan immediately, to
better inform the Draft 2020/21 Annual Plan.
4.6 However,
offsetting this deficit, the budgeted trade waste income within the wastewater
activity is understated by $230,000. $53,000 of this relates to the above
additional NRSBU costs feeding into trade waste income, and the fact that the
volumes going through the trade waste system were not reviewed during the draft
annual plan process and are understated. The Draft Annual Plan 2019/20 had
budgeted trade waste income of $1.498 million; this is more likely to be around
$1.728 million, an increase of $230,000.
4.7 Therefore, the
net impact is that the deficit from the NRSBU Business Plan being received late
can be covered within the wastewater activity without impacting the wastewater
rate.
Draft 2019/20 Business Plan
details
4.8 The 2019/20
Business Plan signed off by the NRSBU Board reflects an increase in expenses as
detailed below:
4.8.1 An increase in operations and
management costs of $476,000, which includes the costs for the Acting General
Manager, operational oversight of the facility and increased infrastructural
maintenance costs (deemed necessary by the Acting GM) for both Bell Island and
Rabbit Island Bio-solids.
4.8.2 An increase of $500,000 in
upgrades to reflect the implementation of the filtration system to allow re-use
of the treated wastewater with the old filters from the Nelson Water Treatment
Plant. This work is underway.
4.9 The 2019/20
Business Plan also reflects an increase in income to the NRSBU of $418,000.
4.10 The implication to the NCC
wastewater activity is that its share of the increased cost is around $140,000
(the total is split between the five contributors) and a reduction in the half
share paid back to both TDC and NCC of $90,000 each. Total deficit is $230,000.
4.11 The Chair of the NRSBU and
the NRSBU Acting General Manager will be in attendance to answer any questions.
5. Options
5.1 The options
include to accept the Draft 2019/20 Business Plan, or to send the Draft
Business Plan back to the Acting GM and the NRSBU Board for more work.
|
Option
1: Accept the 2019/20 Draft Business Plan
|
|
Advantages
|
· Will
allow the Acting GM and NRSBU Board to focus on the draft 2020/21 Business
Plan.
|
|
Risks and Disadvantages
|
· None.
|
|
Option
2: Refer back to Acting GM with request to reduce budgets
|
|
Advantages
|
· Will
allow the Acting GM and NRSBU Board to re-look at the budgets and the
Business Plan.
|
|
Risks and Disadvantages
|
· No
operational saving may be possible.
· Delays
approval of 2019/20 Business Plan.
· Delays
work on 2020/21 Draft Business Plan.
|
6. Conclusion
6.1 The NRSBU Draft
2019-20 Business Plan has been approved by the NRSBU Board and released to the
two Councils for comment/approval.
6.2 This is late and
shows a deficit that has not been included in the NCC 2019/20 Annual Plan
currently out for consultation. However, this deficit can be covered by
correcting the trade waste income budget line.
6.3 The Committee
has the option to provide feedback to the Acting General Manager or to present
the Business Plan to Council for approval.

|
Important considerations for decision making
|
|
1. Fit with Purpose of
Local Government
The NRSBU is a joint committee constituted pursuant
to the provisions of Schedule 7 to the Local Government Act 2002.
|
|
2. Consistency with
Community Outcomes and Council Policy
The decision in this report assists Council in
providing key infrastructure and services to the community in a cost
effective manner.
The following community outcomes are applicable:
· Our
unique natural environment is healthy and protected.
· Our
infrastructure is efficient, cost effective and meets current and future
needs.
|
|
3. Risk
The risk of not approving the Business Plan is that
this could delay the NRSBU implementing its Business Plan for 2019/20 and
will delay the preparation of the Draft 2020/21 Business Plan.
|
|
4. Financial impact
The current Business Plan exceeds the provision in
the 2019/20 Annual Plan out for consultation but can be offset by correcting
the trade waste income budget line.

Business Plan (Business Plan).
2. Recommendation
|
That the Works and Infrastructure Committee

Plan (R10069) and its
attachment (A2165219).
|
Recommendation to Council
|
That the
Council
1. Approves the Nelson Tasman
Regional Landfill Business Unit 2019-2020 Business Plan (A2165219).
|
3. Background
3.1 The
NTRLBU was established by the Nelson City (NCC) and Tasman District (TDC)
Councils in April 2017 and became operational from 1 July 2017.
3.2 The
Deed of Agreement was approved in April 2017. The approved Terms of Reference
requires that the Draft Business Plan be presented annually to each Council by
October each year and allow for each Council to provide feedback (or to
approve) the NTRLBU on the Business Plan.
3.3 The
Draft 2019-20 Business Plan was delayed pending award of the new landfill
operation and maintenance contract.
3.4 The
NTRLBU can only formally adopt the Draft Business Plan after receiving and
considering comment from the two Councils and is then required to present the
final Business Plan to the Councils by 31 May for inclusion in each
Council’s draft Annual Plan.
3.5 The
NTRLBU Board resolved on 8 March 2019 as below:
“Approves
the Nelson Tasman Regional Landfill Business Unit draft Business Plan
2019/2020; and
Approves the
Nelson Tasman Regional Landfill Business Unit’s proposed landfill charges
for 2019/2020”.
4. Discussion
4.1 The
Draft Business Plan was received from the Acting General Manager of the NTRLBU
on 29 March 2019 (refer to Attachment 1).
4.2 The
Chair of the NTRLBU and the Acting General Manager will be present at the
meeting to answer any questions.
4.3 Key
features of the draft Business Plan are discussed below:
Local Disposal
Levy
4.4 The
local disposal levy distributed to the two Councils has been increased by
$200,000 to $2.4 million each for the 2019-20 financial year and has been
included in the NCC Annual Plan 2019-20.
Landfill Charges
4.5 The
NTRLBU has the authority to set fees and charges and those have been set and
included in the NCC’s Annual Plan 2019-20 for consultation.
4.6 Landfill
charges have increased by 15.6%. This increase reflects the effect of the
additional costs of the local waste disposal levy, the increase in operational
cost of the landfill following the procurement of a new operations contract and
the increased costs for the Emissions Trading Scheme.
Options
4.7 The
Committee has the option to provide feedback to the NTRLBU or present the
Business Plan to Council for approval.
4.8 Officers
recommended that Council approves the Business Plan.
5. Conclusion
5.1 The
NTRLBU Draft 2019-20 Business Plan has been approved by the NTRLBU Board and
released to the two Council’s for comment.

Important considerations for decision making
|
|
1. Fit
with Purpose of Local Government
The NTRLBU is a joint committee constituted pursuant
to the provisions of Schedule 7 to the Local Government Act 2002. A regional
landfill contributes to good quality local infrastructure.
|
|
2. Consistency
with Community Outcomes and Council Policy
The draft Business Plan aligns with the 2019/20
Annual Plan.
|
|
3. Risk
This report allows Council to comment on the NTRLBU
Business Plan and these comments will be considered by the Joint Committee.
The risk of not approving the Business Plan is that this could delay the
NTRLBU implementing their Business Plan for 2019/20.
|
|
4. Financial
impact
The NTRLBU 2019/20 Business Plan reflects an
increase in landfill fees and charges and this is included in the 2019/20
Annual Plan currently out for consultation.
|
|
5. Degree
of significance and level of engagement
The NTRLBU is a Joint Committee of the two Councils
and its activities are included in the Long-term Plans and Annual Plans of
each Council. Consultation is undertaken by both Councils in the
preparation and adoption of these plans.
|
|
6. Inclusion
of Māori in the decision making process
No engagement with Māori has been undertaken in
preparing this report.
|
|
7. Delegations

following delegations to consider the Nelson Tasman Regional Landfill
Business Plan:
Areas of responsibility:
• Solid Waste, including
landfill and transfer stations
• Recycling, including

Powers to Decide:
• To perform
all functions, powers and duties relating to the areas of responsibility

REPORT R10101
Works
and Infrastructure Committee Quarterly Report to 31 March 2019
1. Purpose
of Report
1.1 To
inform the Committee of the financial and non-financial results for the third
quarter for the activities under its delegated authority.
2. Recommendation
|
That the Works and Infrastructure Committee
1. Receives
the report Works and Infrastructure Committee Quarterly Report to 31 March
2019 (R10101) and its
attachments (A2182699 and A2182701).
|
3. Background
3.1 Quarterly
reports on performance are being provided to each Committee on the performance
and delivery of projects and activities within their areas of responsibility.
3.2 The financial reporting focuses on the year to date performance (1
July 2018 to 31 March 2019) compared with the year-to-date (YTD) approved
capital and operating budgets.
3.3 Unless
otherwise indicated, all information is against approved operating budget,
which is the 2018/19 Long Term Plan budget plus any carry forwards, plus or
minus any other additions or changes as approved by the Committee or
Council.
3.4 More
detailed project status reports are included (attachments) for the 43 projects
that fall under the Works and Infrastructure Committee These have been selected
if their budget is at least $250,000 for 2018/19, are multi-year projects with
a budget over $1 million, or have been assessed to be of particular interest to
the Committee.
3.5 Project
status is analysed based on three factors; quality, time and budget. From
the consideration of these three factors the project is summarised as being on
track (green), some issues/risks (yellow), or major issues/risks (red).
Projects that are within 5% of their budget are considered to be on track in
regards to the budget factor.
4. Key
developments for the three months to 31 March 2019
4.1 Investment
Performance Audit report
Every three years NZTA undertake
a detailed audit of all regional authorities. The objective of the audit is to
provide assurance that the NZTA’s investment in NCC’s land
transport programme is being well managed and delivering value for money and
that the NCC is appropriately managing risk associated with the Transport
Agency’s investment.
The last audit was undertaken in
2015 and the most recent audit was undertaken this year. The latest 2019 audit
was received in April 2019 and the rating assessment across the following areas
were deemed to be Effective – Financial Processes, Contract Management,
Professional Services, Public Transport and Total Mobility/Supergold schemes.
The audit noted that:
a) Contract management activities were found to be
appropriately documented and supported by effective recordkeeping systems
b) That whilst effective bus contract oversight has continued
to be hindered by the limited information Council has been receiving from its
electronic ticketing provider, that this will change when the Regional Interim
Ticketing Solution (RITS) has been fully implemented later in 2019.
c) NCC’s ability to manage the Total Mobility Scheme has been enhanced
by the adoption of RideWise, an electronic system for recording total mobility
trips and fares and improved information is assisting day to day
administration of the scheme.
The audit also noted that two
opportunities exist to further augment procurement practices around some
management practices including:
a) The need to include in its contract requests a statement
about the process to be followed in the event of late tenders received. The
audit found no issues but suggested that provision be included in all NZTA
contracts the process to be followed in the event of errors or omissions in
submissions. This work is underway.
b) The need to extend the conflicts of interest. Council does have a
robust conflict of interest register that is checked regularly by the Business
Unit Managers, Group Managers and the Senior Leadership Team. Whilst the audit
found no impropriety, NZTA suggest strengthening the conflicts of interest to
include all members of the procurement team, all members of the evaluation
panel, any consultant asked to advise the team, anyone asked to make a
recommendation and anyone making a final approval. This has been actioned.

Notes
Base Expenditure is expenditure that
happens year after year, for example yearly contracts or operating expenses.
|
|
Programmed Expenditure is planned, or
there is a specific programme of works. For example, painting a building.
|
|
Unprogrammed Expenditure is reactive
or unplanned in nature, for example responding to a weather event. Budgets
are included as provisions for these expenses which are unknown.

Other Operating Revenue
Operating Expenditure
Depreciation
The depreciation expenditure
forecast is greater than the current operating budget for several of
Council’s activities. The reason for the increase is due to the
effects from 2017/18 revaluation being greater than originally allowed for.
Subsidised Roading income is greater than budget by $110,000. NZTA
subsidies and Tasman District Council recoveries are $85,000 and $25,000 ahead
of budget respectively due to ahead of budget expenditure.
Subsidised Roading expenditure is greater than budget by $422,000. The
allocation of staff costs is $318,000 ahead of budget. Some of this variance
relates to more time correctly being coded to subsidised roading, as opposed to
unsubsidised roading, in order that costs can be recovered where possible.
Costs that are ahead of budget include drainage maintenance ($86,000), footpath
maintenance ($76,000), and February 2018 Storm Event costs ($80,000). Some
costs are behind budget, including TRACKS and SATURN Modelling ($94,000) and
bridge maintenance ($148,000).
Unsubsidised Roading
expenditure is greater than budget by $65,000. The
allocation of staff costs is $76,000 behind budget. Some of this variance
relates to less time being coded to unsubsidised roading, and more time being
coded to subsidised roading, in order to take full advantage of NZTA subsidies
where these are available. Depreciation is $244,000 ahead of budget due to the
2017/18 revaluation. The end of financial year forecast is anticipated to
be below total operating budget (this doesn’t include depreciation).
Parking Regulation income is less than budget by $88,000. Court Fines Recovered are behind budget by
$46,000. Infringement fees, including Section 2A Registration and Warrant of
Fitness fees, are behind budget by $34,000.
Parking Regulation expenditure is less than budget by $27,000. Court Processing costs year to date are $29,000
behind budget. EIL Contract costs are behind budget by $24,000 due to the new
contract price. The allocation of staff costs is $28,000 ahead of budget,
relating to Contractor IT Support costs.
Parking and CBD Enhancement
income is less than budget by $93,000. Off Street Meter fees are behind budget by
$106,000, with low returns currently being investigated.
Parking and CBD Enhancement
expenditure is greater than budget by $98,000. The
allocation of staff costs is ahead of budget by $84,000, including $56,000 of
costs allocated to the Wakatu Square land disposal proposal.
Public Transport income and
expenditure are now tracking to budget. Income and expenditure
budgets have been re-allocated to reflect delays in moving to a gross contract,
which is anticipated to occur when electronic ticketing goes live in late 2019.
Waste Minimisation income is less than budget by
$43,000. Waste minimisation income is
driven by expenditure.
Waste Minimisation expenditure is less than budget by $22,000. Waste
Management and Minimisation Plan expenses are behind budget $19,000 due to
delays resulting from fire emergencies. Waste Minimisation Community Contract
costs are behind budget by $20,000 due to investigative projects being
completed in the current year, and it is anticipated that the full year budget
may be underspent.
Transfer Station income is less than budget by
$87,000. Transfer station income is driven by expenditure.
Transfer Station expenditure is less than budget by $106,000. Depreciation
is behind budget by $78,000 due to re-categorisation of assets to the joint
landfill. Plant and Equipment Maintenance costs are behind budget by $28,000
due to timing of expenditure not matching budget phasing, and work is on track
to be completed by the end of the financial year.
Landfill expenditure is less than budget by $47,000. Local disposal
levies are behind budget by $85,000. These are internal charges and reflect the
behind budget costs of other solid waste cost centres.
Wastewater income is less than budget by $346,000. Commercial
trade waste income is ahead of budget by $96,000 year to date and is forecast
to be ahead of budget by $360,000 for the full financial year. This variance is
due to catch-up invoices relating to the prior year being invoiced in the
current year, and to the budget being set too low.
The Council’s share of the Nelson Regional Sewerage Business Unit
(NRSBU) net surplus is year to date behind budget by $445,000. The NRSBU is
described in more detail below.
Wastewater expenditure is less than budget by $138,000. The
allocation of staff costs is behind budget by $64,000. Wastewater Reticulation
Reactive Maintenance is behind budget by $29,000 due to timing of expenditure
not matching budget phasing. Depreciation is ahead of budget by $83,000.
The Council’s share of the
Regional Sewerage Business Unit costs are currently behind budget by $78,000,
however are forecast to be overspent by $462,000 for the full financial year
due to the end of year wash-up to recover the additional expenses. The NRSBU is
described in more detail below.
Nelson Regional Sewerage
Business Unit
The NRSBU has incurred higher than
budgeted management and maintenance costs. In addition, Council’s
proportionate share of costs, due to volumes and waste type, have increased
compared to budget. For the full financial year, once the wash up is completed,
Council’s share of NRSBU net surplus is forecast to meet budget, however
Council’s share of NRSBU expenses are forecast to exceed budget by
$462,000.
Stormwater expenditure is greater than budget by $72,000. Depreciation
is $116,000 ahead of budget due to the 2017/18 revaluation of assets. The end
of financial year forecast is anticipated to be approximately $12,000 over
total operating budget (this doesn’t include depreciation).
Operational work in other areas of the stormwater activity are being actively
reduced to balance out this forecasted overspend.
Water Supply income is greater than budget by $30,000. Commercial
Water by Meter charges are ahead of budget by $282,000. Residential Water by
Meter charges are behind budget by $278,000. The residential year-to-date
income relates to the October / November meter reading, which typically
accounts for about 45% of the full year income. The April / May residential meter
readings are currently being completed. The effects to income from the
drought (water restrictions) will only be known by the end of the financial
year following the completion of the April / May residential meter
readings.
Water Supply expenditure is greater than budget by $263,000. Water
Reticulation Reactive Maintenance costs are ahead of budget by $337,000 due to
a run of large watermain breaks and associated road resurfacing costs. The
number of minor leak repairs also increased this quarter as leaks were more
visible (patches of green grass) during the drought. The end of financial
year forecast is anticipated to be approximately $25,000 over total operating
budget (this doesn’t include depreciation). Operational work in
other areas of the water activity are being actively reduced to balance out
this forecasted overspend.
Flood Protection expenditure is behind budget by $89,000. Depreciation
expenses are behind budget by $103,000. The end of financial year
forecast is anticipated to be approximately $6,000 over total operating budget
(this doesn’t include depreciation). Operational work in other
areas of the Flood Protection activity are being actively reduced to balance
out this forecasted overspend.
Capital
expenditure
5.1 The
total capital budget for infrastructure is approximately $28million. The
projected forecast for end of year spend is approximately $25million. The
key projects that are presently projecting an underspend/saving include but not
limited to:
5.2 Saltwater
Creek Bridge Upgrade – Construction is now underway, but as result of
delays in funding decisions required prior to award of contract, work will not
be completed this financial year. It is expected that the total budget of
approximately $1,200,000, will be underspent by $400,000 in this financial
year, and will be spent in the 2019/20 financial year, this has been catered
for in the 2019/20 Annual Plan.
5.3 Street
light conversion to LED – the bulk purchase price of luminaires resulted
in close to $700,000 underspend which has been used to install new street
lights along Waimea Road, and replace decorative street lights as
appropriate. The overall projected savings will be somewhere around
$300,000 in this financial year.
5.4 Residential
Water Meters – the purchase price of the meters has come in lower than
original estimate. This has resulted in an anticipated saving of
$300,000.
5.5 The
Water Membranes project has been completed with a $230,000 saving in this
financial year.
5.6 New
footpaths – Complex design and public engagement will limit potential
spend. It is expected that the total budget of $700,000 will be
underspent by $200,000 in this financial year.
5.7 Rutherford
Stage 1 Girls College Detention. – This project has a projected spend of
$50,000 versus a budget of $290,000 ($240,000 underspend). Stormwater issues in
this area are complex with various potential solutions, each potential option
has its own unique risks which need to be factored into the final solution, the
complexity of the issues and resource issues through this year have resulted in
this underspend. The rephrasing of this has been addressed as part of the
Annual Plan.
5.8 Noting
the potential underspends and savings as detailed above, officers continue to
review alternative methods to maximise capital expenditure this financial year.
This has resulted in the Tui Glen Road watermain renewal going out to tender
shortly, with potential to start construction this financial year.
6. Commentary
on capital projects
6.1 All
capital projects with a budget greater than $250,000 in this financial year
have a project sheet in Attachment 1 of this report.
Key
Points to note:
6.2 Hardy
Street Watermain renewal is due to get underway late May and as a result will not
be completed this financial year.
6.3 Westbrook
Convergence Bridge Deck replacement project has moved forward quicker than
anticipated, with construction starting in May. As a result the previously
expected underspend in this financial year will be minimal.
6.4 Bus
Ticketing – This project has a projected underspend of $248,000.
This is due to the timeline of the project being extended as a result of
initial testing.
6.5 Construction
is underway for the Tahunanui Shared Path and new watermain along Annesbrook
Drive (including underground ducting for Network Tasman).
7. Commentary
on operational projects
7.1 There
are detailed status reports for three operational projects included in the
attachments. These projects, have been selected for quarterly reporting
as they have been assessed to be of particular interest to the Committee.
7.2 These
operational projects are assessed on the same factors – quality, time and
budget and noted as being on track, with some issues/risks or with major
issues/risks. These project updates are appended in Attachment 1.
7.3 The
removal of the dewatered sludge from the Nelson Wastewater Treatment Plant has
been completed ahead of schedule. The removal of the final two sludge
bags was brought forward into this financial year as a preventative measure due
to risks associated with the summer drought. The drought had caused the
quality of the sewerage within the reticulated network to be potentially of
poor quality and posed a risk of ‘crashing’ the treatment plant
ponds following the first major rainfall event. The removal of the final
two sludge bags provides the buffer pond facility (that was housing these bags)
to be available to redirect the initial flush of poor quality sewerage
following a large rainfall event. This risk didn't eventuate due to
the severity of the rainfall events being smaller than anticipated. There
will be a minor overspend this financial year (~$20,000) due to the removal of
these bags. Although this project is classified as operational expenditure, it
is loan funded, and therefore, this minor overspend will be funded from savings
within the Capital expenditure programme.
8. Status
Reports
8.1 Tahunanui
Cycle Network – Preferred Option – Resolved WI/2018/029 updated
comments:
Refer to the specific item in
Attachment 1 of this report for the update. Community engagement for
Tahunanui Pathways Stage 2 is planned for autumn 2019, with construction to
follow in summer 2019/2020.
8.2 Sand
Bags – Resolved CL/2018/119 updated comments:
To inform a future Works and
Infrastructure report, work has commenced to investigate what policy and
practice other New Zealand Councils have in this area. Advice is being
taken from Emergency Management. In addition, messaging about sandbags in
general for council communication will be improved (e.g. how they work where to
get them, how to install/dispose of).
9. Other
notable achievements, issues or matters of interest
9.1 Risks
9.1.1 The
key risk for the Capital projects team relates to achieving delivery of the
capital programme. Whilst work is programmed to be completed, as with all
projects circumstances can change at any time resulting in delays, which will
then effect the ability to achieve the expected timelines.
9.2 Recruitment
9.2.1 Capital
projects has filled a team leader position but has had one resignation during
the period which has resulted in four open vacancies. Work is ongoing to fill
these positions.
9.2.2 The
utilities team is now fully staffed following the recruitment of one new
external staff member, recruitment of an internal staff member and one existing
staff member withdrawing their resignation.
9.2.3 The
roading operations team has carried a vacancy for this quarter but successful
recruitment will see a new staff member commencing in May.
9.3 Water
drought
9.3.1 From
January through to the mid-March, the region experienced a severe drought.
This resulted in Council issuing water restrictions to the urban network from
the 30 January through to the 28 March. Due to the severity of the
drought, stage three restrictions were in place for approximately two weeks.
9.3.2 The
Council supplied water to the Tasman District Council (TDC) Richmond water
supply scheme for approximately five weeks. At the height of the drought, the
Council was supplying TDC in the order of 1,600m3/day
of water.
9.3.3 As
a result of the drought, the water level within the Maitai Dam dropped by
approximately 4.5m below the spill level and dropped to a storage volume of
approximately 2,775,000 m3 (69% full).
9.3.4 The
water level in the Maitai Dam dropped sufficiently that the second dam intake
had to be used. Elevated concentrations of iron and manganese was present at
this level and resulted in discoloured water being distributed into the
network. This water is safe to drink, however it resulted in a number of
complaints, primarily from motels, due to towels being discoloured once washed.
Water pipelines to affected properties were flushed and a cleaning product was
given to assist with removing stains. Customers were advised to consider
installing a filter onto their water supply lateral in order to avoid any
possible recurrence of issues resulting from water discolouration.
9.4 Fire
Emergency
9.4.1 A
number of staff in infrastructure were involved in the Pigeon Valley fire
efforts, resulting in additional work being taken up by others, or delayed, the
effect has also continued to some degree with staff taking special leave and
time in lieu. The impact of this continues to be felt with staff showing
high levels of stress associated with workloads.
9.4.2 As
a result of the fires there have been a number of delays to projected project
timelines, however these are still on track to be completed within this
financial year, including:
· Anzac Park to Maitai
Walkway
· Maitai Valley Road
Shared Path
· Brook Stream Fish
Passage
· Bolt Road Watermain
· Brook Mountain Bike Hub
Bridge
· Saxton Mountain Bike
Trail
· Natural Hazards three
waters study
· Athol Street Slip
reinstatement
· Storm Water Strategy
· Road Line Marking
· Joint Waste Management
and Minimisation Plan with Tasman District Council. This plan will not be
finalised until June and will come before Council for approval in September
2019.
10. Workshop
Update
10.1 On
14 February 2019 a workshop was held with this Committee to discuss the next
update of the Infrastructure Strategy and the Maitai River Flood Protection
project.
10.2 For
the Infrastructure Strategy, officers provided a high level summary of the
current strategy and the key challenges over the next 30 years.
10.3 For
the Maitai River Flood Protection project, officers gave a presentation on the
proposed risk based approach philosophy. The workshop attendees discussed
this approach to flood protection and potential need to consult with the
community sooner than currently planned. Sea level rise as per the new
Ministry for the Environment Guidance Document on Coastal Hazards and Climate
Change (2017) was discussed. This issue will be further discussed as part of
the Nelson Plan.
11. Key
Performance Measures
11.1 As
part of the development of the Long Term Plan 2018-28 (LTP) Council approved
levels of service, performance measures and targets for each activity.
There are 35 performance measures that fall under the Works and Infrastructure
Committee. The final results for each performance measure will be
reported on through the Annual Report. A number of performance measures
cannot be reported on until the end of the financial year, accordingly the scale
to report on the performance measures is as follows:
· On track
· Not on track
· Achieved
· Not achieved
· Not measured yet
11.2 Attachment
2 lists all performance measures within the Works and Infrastructure Committee
delegations, their status and commentary for the quarter.
Quarterly Review of Key Performance Indicators
11.3 Twenty-nine of the 35 performance
measures were on target as at the end of the second quarter.
11.4 The results of four performance
measures are not due until the end of the year.
11.5 One performance measure is not
on track – 2.02 Water Supply, Quality, c) part 8 of the
drinking water standards (chemical compliance criteria). This new
performance measure was included as part of the 2018-28 long term plan. During
the third quarter the water reticulation had a single chemical transgression
(in the Enner Glynn area) due to an elevated reading of Haloacetic Acids
(actual value was 1.01 vs a threshold limit of 1). Haloacetic Acids
are a by-product produced from the reaction between chlorine and naturally
occurring dissolved organics from the river water. The Ministry of Health
Drinking Water Assessor was notified at the time. Officers are
undertaking additional testing to confirm this incident was an anomaly (which
would result in meeting this performance measure) and exploring options to
prevent a reoccurrence.
11.6 Due to the odour issues at the NWWTP,
one performance measure was not achieved. This reason for this odour
issue was detailed in the second quarterly report that was presented to Works
and Infrastructure Committee in February 2019.
12. Conclusion
12.1 The
review of performance for the third quarter for the Works and Infrastructure
Committee is included in this report, with project reports and performance
measure updates attached.

REPORT R9920
Infrastructure
Fees and Charges 2019-2020
1. Purpose of Report
1.1 To
approve fees and charges for Infrastructure services for the 2019/20 financial
year.
2. Recommendation
|
That the Works and Infrastructure Committee
1. Receives the report
Infrastructure Fees and Charges 2019-2020 (R9920) and its Attachment (A2167740).
|
Recommendation to Council
|
That the Council
1. Approves
the proposed fees and charges as per Attachment (A2167740) of Report R9920,
effective 1 July 2019.
|
2. Background
2.1 Fees
and Charges are reviewed annually and either adjusted in line with the Consumer
Price Index (CPI) or changed to reflect any changes in process and/or costs
incurred by Council. This report addresses Infrastructure fees and charges.
2.2 Officers
currently have delegations to set fees and charges. For increases over CPI
officers are of the view that approval via a recommendation from the relevant
committee to Council is appropriate.
3. Discussion
3.1 Proposed
fees and charges for Utilities (water) reflect a CPI adjustment of 1.9% across
the board. No other changes are proposed.
3.2 For
Roading, a CPI adjustment of 1.9% is applied across the board with the
exception of road closure application fees.
3.2.1 Road
closure fees are based on cost recovery of staff time and advertising costs.
Since council now uses its own media channels to advertise road closures rather
than public newspapers, and this still meets legal requirements, these costs
have come down and are reflected in the reduced charges proposed. The new
charges are more closely aligned to those of Tasman District Council. The
change to fees is shown in Table 1 of Attachment 1
3.3 Changes
to proposed fees and charges for Solid Waste at the transfer station other than
CPI are listed in Table 2 of Attachment 1. Rounding for ease of cash
transactions has been applied.
3.3.1 The
transfer station charge for residual waste needs to increase by $6.36 per m3
to match the proposed 15.6% increase in the Joint Regional landfill charges.
3.4 Subject
to approval by this Committee, all users will be given a minimum 30 days’
notice of the proposed changes prior to implementation.
4. Options
4.1 Option
1 (Recommended option) Approve the proposed charges effective 1 July 2019.
4.2 Option
2 Do not approve the proposed charges.
5. Conclusion
5.1 Officers
recommend that the fees and charges as set out in Attachment 1 of this report
be approved.

Important
considerations for decision making
|
|
1. Fit
with Purpose of Local Government
Annual review of fees and charges
enables Council to meet the current and future needs of communities for
good-quality local infrastructure, local public services, in a way that is
most cost-effective for households and businesses.
|
|
2. Consistency
with Community Outcomes and Council Policy
Approving amended fees and charges
enables Council to carry out activity that is aligned with the community
outcome “our infrastructure is efficient, cost effective and meets
current and future needs”.
|
|
3. Risk
Fees and Charges are reviewed
annually and either adjusted in line with the Consumer Price Index or changed
to reflect any changes in process and/or costs incurred to Council. If
proposed changes are not approved the income generated from fees and charges
may not cover actual costs incurred and result in a financial shortfall.
|
|
4. Financial
impact
The fees and charges income is
included in Council’s Long Term Plan.
|
|
5. Degree
of significance and level of engagement
The recommendations outlined in the
report are not considered significant in terms of Council’s
Significance Policy. Other than consultation on the annual plan relating to
increases in the Regional Landfill charges no formal consultation has
occurred with regards to the fee increases in this report.
|
|
6. Inclusion
of Māori in the decision making process
No engagement with Māori has been undertaken in
preparing this report.
|
|

Item 10: Infrastructure Fees and Charges 2019-2020: Attachment 1
Item 11: Parking Meter
Renewal - Referral of powers
|
|
Works and Infrastructure Committee
23 May 2019
|
REPORT R10175
Parking
Meter Renewal - Referral of powers
1. Purpose
of Report
1.1 To
refer authority to Council to consider all matters relating to the renewal of
parking meters.
2. Recommendation
|
That the Works and Infrastructure Committee
1. Receives
the report Parking Meter Renewal - Referral of powers (R10175); and
2. Refers to Council all powers
of the Works and Infrastructure Committee relating to the renewal of parking
meters.
|
Recommendation to Council
|
That the
Council
1. Considers the matter of the
renewal of parking meters.
|
3. Background
3.1 A
priority of the Council’s Long Term Plan (LTP) is a healthy, vibrant and
thriving Central Business District (CBD); one that supports our retail and
other businesses, while attracting visitors and residents alike. There is a
strong relationship between parking and CBD vitality.
3.2 The
City Centre parking meters are dated and have reached the end of their useful
life, with maintenance costs and machine downtime increasing. Additionally
existing meters no longer offer the payment flexibility and options expected by
the public.
3.3 Council
has allocated a budget of $800,000 in the Draft Annual Plan 2019/21 for their
renewal.
3.4 There
are a number of hardware/software options for the renewal that will provide a
modern smart system whilst maintaining the future flexibility for any changes
to fees and time limit options to support the vitality and amenity in the City
Centre.
3.5 A
workshop was held in December 2018 where potential options were explored with
Council and there was some hesitancy to commit to further exploring any option
without considering a parking strategy. Work is underway bring to Council more
information regarding a high level
4. Discussion
4.1 The
close relationship between parking and CBD vitality has resulted in Transport
Officers working closely with the City Development Team to inform a report on
options for parking meter replacement. A summary of the work recently
undertaken to consider future parking options will be presented to Council at a
briefing on 28 May 2019.
4.2 A
decision on whether to proceed with the renewal, and if so which option to
adopt, is required in order to proceed to Request for Tender. Officers request
full Council consideration at an early date given the risk of meters failing
and the urgent need to proceed with a solution. In addition, officers consider
the strong relationship between CBD vitality and parking as one warranting full
Council consideration rather than the subset of the Works and Infrastructure
Committee.
Options
4.3 The
Committee can either refer this matter to Council or not.
|
Option 1: Refer matter to
Council (preferred option)
|
|
Advantages
|
· A

5. Conclusion
5.1 The
vitality of the CBD is strongly influenced by parking and is an important issue
for Council. Due to the risk of aging meters failing a decision on whether to
proceed with the renewal, and if so which option to adopt, is required in order
to proceed to Request for Tender. Budget is set for procurement in 2019/20 year
and officers recommend referring this matter to Council for expediency.

Recommendation to Council

3. Background
3.1 A
proposal has been received from a Nelson based developer, Cephas Properties
(Nelson) Limited, to purchase part of the eastern end of Wakatu Square,
including part of Wakatu Lane, to facilitate the development of an urban
shopping precinct. The proposed parcel of land for sale/purchase is shown in
red in Attachment 1 – Aerial of Proposed Land for Sale (A2179994). The
final shape and size of the parcel of land for sale will take into account the
scale, shape and design of an acceptable development, public car parking, bus
services and public amenity of this location.
3.2 Public
feedback on the proposal is currently being obtained through a Special
Consultative Procedure before a decision by Council on the potential
sale. The closing date for submissions on the Statement of Proposal
(A2145385) is 2 May 2019 with deliberations scheduled for 4 June 2019.
3.3 If
Council decides to sell the proposed parcel of land, a separate consultation
process will be required if part of Wakatu Lane is to be included in the sale.
The indicative portion of Wakatu Lane that could be stopped is shown in blue
over the proposed parcel of land for sale (red) in Attachment 2 – Aerial
of Wakatu Lane- Potential Road Stopping (A2179989).
3.4 The
Works and Infrastructure Committee has the delegated authority for the Nelson
roading network and all land associated with that roading network. The
Committee has the power to hear, consider and decide all applications for road
stopping. Further, the Committee has the power to recommend to Council on
property transactions that involves the sale of land in the Nelson roading
network.
3.5 As
the decision on the stopping of Wakatu Lane requires consideration of similar
issues as the deliberations for the sale of part of Wakatu Square and there is
some timing pressure, the Committee is requested to refer the mandate for any
decisions on Wakatu Lane to Council.
