8. QUESTIONS UNDER STANDING ORDERS

Nil. 9. ELECTED MEMBERS’ INFORMATION EXCHANGE

The Board was advised that a trial closing of the Pier to fishermen on Saturday 28 February 2015 during a public event had been very successful. The Board decided to suggest staff consider closing the Pier to fishermen on a regular basis to enable unfettered access for the general public.

The Board noted that the security lights on the Pier side of the New Brighton Library were not

operating on Saturday 28 February 2015. Staff undertook to follow up on this matter and inform the Board of the outcome.

The Board has been alerted by the public to two matters in the Council’s Activity Management

Plan for Long Term Plan 2015–2025 (LTP) considerations. These are the South New Brighton Motor Camp whose future is now precarious as a result of extensive damage to the land, civic infrastructure and buildings. The other is the Rawhiti Golf Course which is proposed to be closed from September 2015 as the result of a perceived over supply of golf courses in the city.

The Board noted these two proposals had created concern for the two groups.

The Board decided to request a briefing from the Recreation and Sports Unit on LTP options for the South New Brighton Motor Camp and the Rawhiti Golf Course. The Board decided to request staff to communicate urgently and frequently with the Board on the Long Term Plan (LTP) proposals for the South New Brighton Domain camping ground and Rawhiti Golf Course and any other proposals for facilities within the ward that are significant.

This communication is to extend to the proprietors of the South New Brighton Domain camping ground and the Rawhiti Golf Club.

took place in New Brighton of Saturday 28 February2015, had been very successful. PART C – REPORT ON DELEGATED DECISIONS TAKEN BY THE BOARD 10. CONFIRMATION OF MEETING MINUTES – 16 FEBRUARY 2015

1. PURPOSE AND ORIGIN OF REPORT

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board’s approval

to relocate a pair of temporary stops located on Bower Avenue to permanent positions. 1.2 This is a staff initiated report which will resolve all the bus stops required due to the

Metro Review carried out by Environment Canterbury (ECan).

2. BACKGROUND 2.1 The Burwood/Pegasus Community Board was presented with a report in November 2014

dealing with the required bus stops within the ward resulting from the ECan Metro Review (refer Attachment 1).

2.2 The Board “resolved to request staff to place temporary bus stops in Bower Avenue

between Broadhaven Avenue and Queenspark Drive noting that these stops have an approximate life of three months. The Board’s preference is for these to be located outside 509E and 524 Bower Avenue and replace those identified in the report outside 526/528 and 511/513 Bower Avenue.”

3. COMMENT

3.1 Temporary stops have been installed outside numbers 511 and 526 Bower Avenue;

these stops have been sign only (no markings) due to their temporary nature. 3.2 They have been operational from 8 December 2014. 3.3 As requested staff have consulted to relocate the stops to the Board’s preferred positions

outside 509E and 524 Bower Avenue (refer Attachment 2). 3.4 No feedback was received from numbers 524 and 526 Bower Avenue. 3.5 Feedback against the proposal was received from the residents adjacent to 509E, with

objections from numbers 503, 505 and 507. 3.6 Reasons given for the objections included: 3.6.1 Vision being blocked; 3.6.2 Loss of off street parking for properties; 3.6.3 Noise issues from braking/idling, etc; 3.6.4 Rubbish being left from bus patrons; 3.6.5 Partial loss of reserve land. 3.7 Staff have confirmed with ECan that this stop is not a timing point stop, which means a

bus will only use this stop when picking up or dropping off passengers and not wait in the stop which will mean noise issues will be limited.

Burwood/Pegasus Community Board Agenda 16 March 2015

9 Cont’d 3.8 One of the submissions made reference to a van being continually parked at the

proposed bus stop site obscuring vision. In this instance having a bus stop marked out on the road will actually help with visibility as when the bus isn’t using the stop it will be acting as a clearway which vehicles cannot park in ensuring better visibility for people accessing Bower Avenue.

3.9 All bus stop installations result in some loss of off street parking. The Christchurch City

Council Parking Strategy prioritises kerb space for use as bus stops above all other parking needs.

4. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS

4.1 The estimated cost of these proposals is $2,000 and will be met from existing budgets.

5. STAFF RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board: 5.1 Revoke any existing parking restrictions on the eastern side of Bower Avenue

commencing at a point 474 metres south of its intersection with Aston Drive and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 26 metres.

5.2 Approve that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time on the eastern side of

Bower Avenue commencing at a point 474 metres south of its intersection with Aston Drive and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of eight metres.

5.3 Approve that a marked bus stop be installed on the eastern side of Bower Avenue

commencing at a point 482 metres south of its intersection with Aston Drive and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 14 metres.

5.4 Approve that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time on the eastern side of

Bower Avenue commencing at a point 496 metres south of its intersection with Aston Drive and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of four metres.

5.5 Revoke any existing parking restrictions on the western side of Bower Avenue

commencing at a point 328 metres south of its intersection with Broadhaven Avenue and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 26 metres.

5.6 Approve that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time on the western side of

Bower Avenue commencing at a point 328 metres south of its intersection with Broadhaven Avenue and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of four metres.

5.7 Approve that a marked bus stop be installed on the western side of Bower Avenue

commencing at a point 332 metres south of its intersection with Broadhaven Avenue and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of 14 metres.

5.8 Approve that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time on the western side of

Bower Avenue commencing at a point 346 metres south of its intersection with Broadhaven Avenue and extending in a southerly direction for a distance of eight metres.

1. PURPOSE AND ORIGIN OF REPORT

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board’s approval

to install nine new bus stops in their ward. 1.2 This is a staff initiated report resulting in new bus stops being required due to the recent

Metro Review carried out by Environment Canterbury (ECan).

2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2.1 Staff have consulted on nine proposed bus stop locations and are seeking the

Burwood/Pegasus Community Board to resolve five of them as permanent stops. The remaining four will be installed as temporary stops in the locations shown on the attached plans in order for the bus route to have stops available by December 8th 2014. Further consultation will be carried out to determine permanent locations with a report back to the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board.

3. BACKGROUND

3.1 ECan has recently carried out a review of their Metro services to help achieve their goal

of a better integrated public transport system. 3.2 After consultation with the community in May and June 2014 the final routes have been

approved by the ECan commissioners in Sep 2014. 3.3 As a result of these route changes new stops are required on streets that are newly

serviced by Metro buses. 3.4 The recommendations of this report align with Council Strategies including the current

Council Transport Strategic Plan 2012 – 2042. 3.5 The Lincoln/Parklands (80) will service Aston Drive and Bower Avenue and Queenspark

Drive. The Halswell/Queenspark (7) High Frequency Route will service Inwoods Road. The Palms/Prestons (171) will service Lower Styx Road.

4. COMMENT

4.1 This report is concerned with nine bus stop locations:

1 Torrey Pines (fronting Aston Drive) 9 Lower Styx Road 120 Aston Drive (Opposite Torrey Pines)

548 Marshland Road (fronting Lower Styx Road)

511 Bower Avenue 93 Queenspark Drive (Parklands Reserve) 528 Bower Avenue 9 Inwoods Road 21 Inwoods Road

ATTACHMENT 1 TO CLAUSE 9 CONT’D

4.2 A letter with an information plan showing the location of the bus stop was distributed to the residents, businesses and property owners of properties adjoining each proposed bus stop for their information on 15 September 2014. The feedback period closed on 6 October 2014. Each person/s who/whom responded and gave their contact details has received an acknowledgement that their submission has been received and later a second letter was sent giving the outcome of consultation, a summary of the feedback and advice of when a report would be presented to this meeting of the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board requesting their approval to install the bus stops in their area. Details of the Board meeting were also provided so that any interested submitters could attend or address the Board prior to a decision being made.

4.3 Aston Drive Stops – A pair of stops have been positioned near The Belfry/Torrey Pines

intersection (Refer Aston Drive Proposed Bus Stop Plan). 4.3.1 Consultation with the affected residents has taken place and no feedback was

received. 4.4 Bower Avenue Stops (Temporary) – A pair of stops are required between Broadhaven

Avenue and Queenspark Drive. The proposed location is approximately central between the two roads. Resulting from consultation, other suitable sites have been put forward which require further investigation and consultation, it is for this reason these stops should be installed as temporary with a view to re-consult and report back to the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board with another recommendation (Refer Bower Avenue Proposed Bus Stop Plan).

4.4.1 Consultation with affected residents has taken place and feedback in opposition

to the proposed stops was received (Refer Feedback Spreadsheet). Staff will install these stops as temporary (just a sign without road markings) with a view to finding alternative locations.

4.5 Inwoods Road Stops – A pair are required between Mairehau Road and Queenspark

Drive. The proposed stops are located centrally between the above roads (Refer Inwoods Road Proposed Bus Stop Plan).

4.5.1 Consultation with affected residents has taken place and no feedback was

received. 4.6 Lower Styx Road Stops (Temporary) – These stops are to be temporary as there will

be an intersection upgrade project that involves signalising Marshland Road/Lower Styx Road intersection. The permanent positioning of these stops will be included in this future project (Refer Lower Styx Road Proposed Bus Stop Plan).

4.6.1 Consultation with affected residents has taken place and feedback was received

(Refer Feedback Spreadsheet). Staff will install these stops as temporary (just a sign without road markings) with a view to the signalisation project determining permanent locations.

4.7 Queenspark Drive Stop Relocation – This existing stop needs to be relocated due to it

being changed into a Terminus stop as part of the Metro review. This proposed relocation outside the park will hopefully avoid any noise issues suffered by residents due to idling buses (Refer Queenspark Drive Proposed Bus Stop Plan).

4.7.1 Consultation with the affected residents has taken place and no feedback was

received.

1. PURPOSE AND ORIGIN OF REPORT

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board's approval

to install a No Stopping restriction along the frontages of 108 and 110 Marshland Road. 1.2 At its meeting of 1 September 2014 the Board received a deputation from Nicola Jordan,

Business and Care Manager of Oceania Group (NZ) Limited and Senior Care resident Rex Smith. The Board decided to request staff:

To prepare a report for the Board on the installation of no-stopping lines at the Palm Grove Senior Care Centre’s Marshland Road entrance, including the option of median strips, to improve the safety of the Centre’s residents when exiting by vehicle from the Centre.

1.3 This report has been prepared to fulfil the above Board resolution.

2. BACKGROUND 2.1 There is a strong demand for all day on-street parking in the immediate vicinity of the

Garden Hotel and adjacent commercial properties on Marshland Road. The parking demands can be attributed to staff parking for these commercial properties.

2.2 As a result of the on-street parking demands, there is limited visibility from adjacent

driveways, including the main access to the Palm Grove Senior Care Centre (108 Marshland Road).

3. COMMENT

3.1 Drivers are legally able to park as close as one metre to a vehicle crossing serving an

adjacent property, limiting visibility for any vehicle exiting the property. This can be a significant issue for major driveways fronting high volume arterial roads with high parking demands.

3.2 It is proposed to install a No Stopping restriction on Marshland Road to improve visibility

and safety for the driveways at 108 and 110 Marshland Road as indicated on Attachment 1.

3.3 When determining the length of No Stopping restriction to be installed in this instance, it

was identified that the Garden Hotel entrance (110 Marshland Road) was subject to the visibility issues similar to the Palm Grove access. North of the Garden Hotel entrance there is a pedestrian refuge, two on-street parking spaces, followed by an entrance to a number of commercial properties at 114 Marshland Road.

3.4 It was determined that the best outcome would be the removal of parking as far as the

driveway to 114 Marshland Road to provide adequate visibility for all driveways and provide a consistent treatment of the roadway.

3.5 Consultation was undertaken with businesses and property owners. 3.6 Oceania Group initiated the request for No Stopping restrictions and support the

proposal.

Burwood/Pegasus Community Board Agenda 16 March 2015

10 Cont’d 3.7 Two submissions were received in opposition to the proposal to extend the No Stopping

restrictions along the frontages of 110 and 114 Marshland Road due to the loss of parking. The extent of No Stopping restriction was re-evaluated due to these submissions. As a result, the length of No Stopping has been limited to the minimum extent required to provide adequate visibility to the Palm Grove and Garden Hotel Driveways. The proposal removes four on-street parking spaces.

3.8 Part 1, Clause 5 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2008 provides

Council with the authority to install parking restrictions by resolution. 3.9 Community Boards have delegated authority from the Council to exercise the delegations

as set out in the Register of Delegations. The list of delegations for the Community Boards includes the resolution of parking restrictions.

3.10 The installation of any street markings must comply with the Land Transport Rule Traffic

Control Devices 2004. 3.11 The recommendations align with the Christchurch Transport Strategic Plan 2012 – 2042.

4. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS 4.1 The estimated cost of this proposal is $100 for the installation of new road markings.

5. STAFF RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board: 5.1 Revoke all existing parking and stopping restrictions on the eastern side of Marshland

Road commencing at a point 62 metres north of its intersection with Joy Street and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of 76 metres.

5.2 Approve that the stopping of vehicles be prohibited at any time on the eastern side of

Marshland Road commencing at a point 62 metres north of its intersection with Joy Street and extending in a northerly direction for a distance of 76 metres.

1. PURPOSE AND ORIGIN OF REPORT

1.1 The purpose of this report is to seek the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board's approval

to install a No Stopping restriction along the Palm Grove frontage to Joy Street. 1.2 At its meeting of 1 September 2014 the Board received a deputation from Nicola Jordan,

Business and Care Manager of Oceania Group (NZ) Limited and Senior Care resident Rex Smith. The Board decided to request staff:

To reinstate the yellow no-stopping lines at the Joy Street entrances to Palm Grove Senior Care Centre, noting these had been sealed over during recent road works.

1.3 This report has been prepared to fulfil the above Board resolution.

2. BACKGROUND 2.1 The Palm Grove Senior Care Centre has two accesses to Joy Street. The southern

driveway is situated on the inside of a bend in Joy Street. Visibility for drivers exiting the northern driveway can be very limited by on-street parking due to the alignment. As a result, No Stopping restrictions had previously been installed on the bend. These were removed during roadworks but not reinstated. The extent of the existing No Stopping restriction is insufficient to provide suitable visibility for the northern driveway.

2.2 Reinstatement of the existing No Stopping restriction has been instructed separately from

this proposal.

3. COMMENT 3.1 It is proposed to extend the No Stopping restriction on Joy Street to improve visibility and

safety for the Palm Grove accesses on Joy Street as indicated on Attachment 1. 3.2 The proposed No Stopping restriction fronts the Palm Grove Senior Care Centre.

Oceania Group initiated the request for the No Stopping restriction and supports the proposal.

3.3 Part 1, Clause 5 of the Christchurch City Council Traffic and Parking Bylaw 2008 provides

Council with the authority to install parking restrictions by resolution. 3.4 Community Boards have delegated authority from the Council to exercise the delegations

Contact Contact Details

General Manager responsible: General Manager, Culture Leisure and Parks

Officer responsible: Unit Manager, Transport and City Streets

N

Author: Lewis Burn, Property Consultant Y DDI 941 8522

1. PURPOSE AND ORIGIN OF REPORT

1.1 The purpose of this report is to advise the outcome of the formal notification process in

accordance with the tenth Schedule of the Local Government Act 1974 to stop the legal road that makes up the Bournemouth Crescent/Hampshire Street pedestrian accessway and to seek a resolution of the Board to formally stop the road and publish a notice to declare the road stopped.

1.2 This report arises from a resolution of the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board on

16 September 2013 “that staff prepare an Application for Road Stopping of the pedestrian accessway situated between 26 and 28 Bournemouth Crescent and 109 and 111 Hampshire Street under the Local Government Act (1974), subject to the prior agreement of the proposed terms of sale of the road once stopped”.

1.3 The report also seeks a resolution from the Board to formally dispose of the land that

makes up the accessway on the completion of road stopping to the adjoining property owners that have conditionally contracted with the Council to purchase the respective areas adjoining their properties.

2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

2.1 An agreement for sale and purchase has been entered into (subject to the terms of the

agreements being approved and the road stopping procedures being successfully completed) with the adjoining property owners situated at 26 Bournemouth Crescent and 109 Hampshire Street to acquire the accessway area adjacent their respective properties, (refer Attachment 1).

2.2 In accordance with the tenth Schedule of the Local Government Act 1974, a public notice

of the proposed road stopping (refer Attachment 2) was published in the Christchurch Press on two occasions at more than seven days apart with the closing date for objections (more than 40 days after the first publication on 28 October 2014) being 12 December 2014.

2.3 The public notice with the plan (refer Attachment 1) was placed at each end of the

accessway from the first date of publication of the notice until the closing date. During this period this notice was required to either be replaced or cleaned of graffiti on four occasions. This same notice was also served on all four adjoining properties in accordance with the tenth schedule stopping requirements.

2.4 No objections or submissions were received to the road stopping notice. 2.5 The accessway conveys Council owned waste water and storm water services. Chorus

and Vodafone have confirmed that they do not require any easements for telecommunication services. The Council owned services are to be protected by easement.

Burwood/Pegasus Community Board Agenda 16 March 2015

12 Cont’d

3. BACKGROUND

3.1 At the Board meeting of 18 February 2013, Mr Kevin Twiss, owner of 109 Hampshire Street, petitioned the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board requesting that “the Council take the necessary measures to permanently close the pedestrian accessway between 109 and 111 Hampshire Street that links Hampshire Street and Bournemouth Crescent”. Mr Twiss proposed to buy the accessway land from the Council.

3.2 The Board decided that the matters raised by Kevin Twiss regarding the requested

closure of the pedestrian accessway be referred to staff for consideration and report back to the Board.

3.3 The ‘Pedestrian Accessway Policy’ (the Policy) relates specifically to the assessment of

requests for the closure of pedestrian accessways. The procedures flow chart from the policy had been customised to this particular request and the report back to the Board on 16 September 2013 was provided to enable the Board to make an informed decision on whether the accessway should be retained or if Road Stopping procedures should be initiated. Included in the Policy are stated ‘General Principles’ that provide guidance to the Council on the evaluation of applications for closure of pedestrian accessways. Closure of the accessway had been considered against these Principles as part of that report.

3.4 Following the Board’s resolution on 16 September 2013 to initiate the road stopping

procedures, approaches were made to all four property owners immediately adjoining the accessway to determine their interest in purchasing any of the accessway should the road stopping procedure be successfully completed. The property owners at 28 Bournemouth Crescent and 111 Hampshire Street confirmed they had no interest in purchasing any of the lane.

3.5 The owners at 26 Bournemouth Crescent and 109 Hampshire Street expressed their

interest in acquiring the half of the accessway adjoining their respective properties and a conditional agreement subject to the road being stopped was entered into for a sum of compensation sum assessed by independent registered valuation.

3.6 A survey plan was prepared to show the road proposed to be stopped as two parcels

Section 1 (0.0138ha) and Section 2 (0.0138ha) SO 478486 (refer Attachment 1) for subsequent disposal and amalgamation with Lot 239 DP 22292, CT CB 26B/144, (S E Karauria ) and Lot 170 DP 22292, CT 11A/438,(K G Twiss) respectively.

4. COMMENT

4.1 As no objections have been received to the road stopping, the Council’s powers under

Sections 319(h),342(1)(a) and 345 of the Local Government Act 1974 in relation to road stopping and the disposal of land that was previously stopped road are delegated to the Board under the Council’s Road Stopping Policy (2009).

4.2 Due to significant earthquake damage to the wastewater network in the Aranui area,

Stronger Christchurch Infrastructure Rebuild Team (SCIRT) are scheduling work to replace damaged gravity systems. This work will involve installing a vacuum pipe to replace the existing pipe within the accessway. SCIRT confirm that an easement over the entire three metre wide accessway will be sufficient to undertake this work should the start date follow formal stopping and disposal. SCIRT are communicating with the adjoining owners about the timing and impact this work will have to the adjoining properties.

Burwood/Pegasus Community Board Agenda 16 March 2015

12 Cont’d 4.3 The principal terms of the agreements for sale and purchase with the owners of

26 Bournemouth Crescent and 109 Hampshire Street provide for: 4.3.1 A total consideration of $16,320 including GST. The consideration is based on

registered valuation that was assessed in the knowledge that the existing Council services would be protected by easement.

4.3.2 The Council (either by resolution or under delegated authority) determining to stop

the road under the Local Government Act procedure and this procedure being successfully completed on terms and conditions which are acceptable to both the Council and purchasers.

4.3.3 The title to the road when stopped to issue subject to such easements as the

Council may require in its absolute discretion to protect any services or utilities located within the accessway.

4.3.4 The road when stopped is to be amalgamated with the titles to the adjoining

properties.

5. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS 5.1 In accordance with The Road Stopping Policy (2009) as the Road Stopping procedures

were initiated by the Council costs are to be funded by the Business Unit initiating the road stopping (Transport and City Streets, Road Corridor Operational budgets). The costs associated with survey, public advertising; LINZ fees; valuation and legal costs are estimated at $16,000 which will largely be offset by the disposal consideration. Staff time has not been included in this figure.

6. STAFF RECOMMENDATION

It is recommended that the Burwood/Pegasus Community Board:

6.1 Resolve, pursuant to Section 319(1) (h) and Section 342(1) (a) of the Local Government

Act 1974, to stop the legal road in accordance with the tenth Schedule to that Act shown as Sections 1 and 2 on SO Plan 478486.

6.2 Subject to 6.1, resolve pursuant to Section 345 of the Local Government Act 1974 to

dispose of the title to the land subject to easements to protect the Council’s wastewater and storm water services in the following manner:

6.2.1 Section 1 SO Plan 478486 being amalgamated with Lot 239 DP 22292 comprised

in CFR CB26B/144 (SE Karauria). 6.2.2 Section 2 SO Plan 478486 being amalgamated with Lot 170 DP 22292 comprised

in CFR CB11A/438 (KG Twiss). 6.3 Authorise the Property Consultancy Manager to approve and sign such documentation as

required to create the service easements required and to protect the Council’s interest. CHAIRPERSON’S RECOMMENDATION

Due to the date it was received the application could not be processed in time for the event which took place on Saturday 14 February 2015. Funding will be retrospective however; as the application was submitted prior to the date of the event it is able to be recommended for funding.

The New Brighton Project Inc has been operating since 1994 providing a wide variety of activities and events. They hold the Seaside Market 48 times a year and on average it has 40 stalls. The LOVE Market also provides an opportunity to showcase local music and entertainment acts.

The LOVE Market is a memorial market to Pete Love a local musician who passed away a few years ago. His fellow musicians hold a concert at the market once a year.

The loss of $2,000 of funding usually received from the carnival held in New Brighton over Guy Fawkes week, has impacted the ability of the organisation to cover the cost of the entertainment for this event.

The combined activities on the day attracted over 5,000 people. The event has had a huge impact on the local community, generating continued interest and visitation into New Brighton, enhancing people's lives both economically and at a community level.

1. PURPOSE AND ORIGIN OF REPORT

1.1 This report has been generated as the project is currently listed in the Christchurch City

Three Year Plan 2013–16 (revised). 1.2 The purpose of this report is to seek Burwood/Pegasus Community Board’s approval for

the concept plan of South New Brighton Park Proposed Playground Renewal and to proceed with detailed design and construction.

2. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

2.1 South New Brighton Park is a sports park in east Christchurch servicing a large

community. The previous playground was a fort structure that was severely damaged by fire in 2011 and subsequently removed. Several other remaining playground elements no longer comply with current New Zealand safety standards and are due for replacement. Public consultation regarding this project has been supported by the community and a concept plan for playground renewal has been created (refer Attachment 1).

3. BACKGROUND

3.1 South New Brighton Park is located in the suburb of New Brighton. It is made up of one

land parcel with an area of 299,816 metres square. This park is one of many governed by the South New Brighton Reserves Management Plan. Replacement of the playground complies with the Management Plan. The park is an important community facility hosting a range of recreational pursuits.

3.2 The seesaw and slide are also due for replacement as these structures no longer comply

with New Zealand Playground Standards 5828:2004 and funding is available this financial year to upgrade this play equipment

3.3 The new playground design has been planned in accordance with Crime Prevention

through Environmental Design (CPTED) principles.

4. COMMENT

4.1 A preliminary concept plan was circulated to key stakeholders late November 2014 to obtain feedback on its design. Residents were asked to indicate their support/non-support for the concept plan and were given the option to comment. In total, 75 responses were received with 73 (97 percent) indicating their support and positive comments.

4.2 A number of suggestions and comments were made that have been considered by the

project team. In this instance no changes have been made to the plan due to the excellent support for the proposed plan. The South New Brighton Park Proposed Playground Renewal Concept Plan can be viewed as Attachment 1.

4.3 All proposed play equipment complies with the New Zealand Playground Safety

Standards.
