Community adaptation planning: Adaptive Pathways September 2021 Council Briefing Objectives:

. To understand the need and purpose for community adaptation planning. . To understand Adaptive Pathways approach to community adaptation planning.

2 Adaptation

Adaptation is increasing our resilience and ability to thrive in a changing environment.

Adaptation means planning for how we grow, develop, and make decisions on how best to respond to climate change.

3 Reduced mobility and Disruption to Risk to life access: services and during extreme permanent increased costs weather events damage or to maintain disruption to services roads

Loss of land due Challenges to Impacts on to coastal local economy, freshwater: erosion or particularly reduced quality permanent agriculture and and availability inundation horticulture

Impacts on Increasingly Cultural and health and restrictive land social hardship wellbeing: use, difficulty to connected to including loss of develop environment amenities and property decline public places Adaptive Pathways Planning

Adaptive Pathways Planning is the best practice approach to adaptation planning when the context is complicated and there is uncertainty.

Pathways are constructed to maintain a flexibility between options. Adaptation actions are sequenced over time.

The aim is no/low-regret decisions that do not: a) irreversibly commit to a particular course of action and limit future options; and / or b) over-invest in risk reduction prematurely at significant cost.

Focus is our coastal communities due to the scale of change and impacts.

3 Council Briefing

1 September 2021 Introduction

• Background – History – Policy purpose • Update – Policy Considerations – Way forward • Questions Background

• History – Council’s Property Sale and Acquisitions Policy (the Policy) was developed and adopted by Council in 2015 – Developed at request of the Commissioners /then CE. – Non-statutory adopted Policy of Council – Best practice is that such policies are reviewed on a regular basis Purpose

• Sale and Acquisition Policy – To support consistent decision-making on matters relating to property disposal and acquisitions. – It also intended to support staff in dealing with enquiries from the public regarding land sales both to and from Council. Considerations

• Current situation – The Policy has met its objectives – some lessons learnt regarding the content and context – All decisions on sale and Acquisition made by Council by way of resolution – minor changes to the Policy for clarity and transparency are proposed. Way Forward

• Officers recommend – Retention of this policy – Officers Seeking feedback today from Elected members on draft Policy – Finalised policy will be brought to Council for adoption once feedback has been incorporated. Questions Funding requirements in a regulated future To maintain an affordable rates rise, investment has been focused on growth (where development contributions can be sought) and renewals. There is a recognition of reducing the impact of climate change however the immediate focus is on the planning. Investment on flood defense is entirely dependent on external funding at this stage Protecting the natural environment is a key outcome however there is little investment signaled in this LTP for enhancement
