Approves allocations from the 2019-20 Community Halls Fund to the hall committees as follows: i. Glenbervie Hall (subject to meeting requirements) $2,500 ii. Mata Hall $10,000 iii. Matapouri Hall $10,000 iv. Maungakaramea Hall $10,000 v. Maungatapere Community Centre $10,000 vi. McLeod Bay Hall $3,500 vii. Oakura Hall $10,000 viii. Opuawhanga Community Hall $10,000 ix. Otaika Hall $10,000 x. Parakao Hall $7,495 xi. Parua Bay and Districts Community Centre $7,000 xii. Purua Hall (subject to meeting requirements) $7,000 xiii. Riponui Settlers Hall $10,000 xiv. Ruatangata Hall $10,000 xv. Springfield Domain Hall $10,000 xvi. Waiotira Hall $8,000 xvii. Waipu Coronation Hall (subject to meeting requirements) $10,000 xviii. Whananaki Hall (subject to meeting requirements) $4,474 3 Background The Community Halls Fund assists community hall committees in the district with facility maintenance. Council provides triennial building assessment reports for each hall, and the aim of the Fund is to primarily support the maintenance needs identified on that report. The combined maintenance schedule is in Attachment 2. 6 The Fund is available for the 30 community-owned halls in the Whangarei district, as identified in Council’s Community Halls Strategy (2007). There are an additional 6 halls that Council owns and maintains through its Community Property portfolio. 4 Discussion All community-owned hall committees were directly invited to apply in September, with several reminders issued. Eighteen applications were received. 4.1 Financial/budget considerations The budget allocated for this year is $150,000. The total amount requested is $161,269. The total recommended allocation is $149,969, fully exhausting the Fund. 4.2 Policy amendment The maximum grant allowable under the Fund has been increased from $5,000 to $10,000. This reflects the increase in the total Fund budget (it was $60,000 in 2017-18) and better reflects current building maintenance costs. This change aligns with our Funding Principles of flexibility and effectiveness, enabling Council to provide more meaningful support to our communities. 4.3 Assessment of applications Applications received were assessed against eligibility criteria, the building assessment reports, the need identified by the applicants, and the overall situation of the hall (including level of usage and previous performance). Some applicants have not met the basic eligibility criteria of completing satisfactory grant reports and ensuring their details are kept up to date on the incorporated societies or charities registers. These applicants are highlighted in bold/blue in the attached assessment and are noted in the recommendation. In the spirit of walking alongside our communities, and being flexible and supportive, we have recommended allocation of grants on the proviso that these matters are rectified. Staff have already requested the outstanding information and will work with the relevant committees to remedy this. 4.4 Insurance costs and looking ahead Last year, Council was able to provide a small contribution to each hall to help with the cost of insurance. This was due to some budget remaining in the Fund. This year, the Fund is proposed to be fully exhausted for the purpose of necessary maintenance. The question of support for insurance arises every year and is something that can be explored when we review our community funding model and also the Community Halls Strategy in the first half of 2020. 5 Significance and engagement The decisions or matters of this agenda report do not trigger the significance criteria outlined in Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy, and the public will be informed via agenda report publication on the website. 7 6 Attachments Assessment of applications Maintenance schedule 8 9 2019-20 Community Halls Fund - assessment of applications Hall Up to date (filing Project - this request On Maintenance Schedule?

  • Indigenous Vegetation and Habitat
    Part C – Policies – Indigenous Vegetation and Habitat 17 Indigenous Vegetation and Habitat 17.1 Significant Issues Loss of biodiversity and fragmentation of significant indigenous vegetation and significant habitats of indigenous fauna arising from land clearance, pest invasions, modification of indigenous wetlands, subdivision, use and development. Low representation of threatened and/or rare vegetation and habitat types in the protected areas network within the District. Finding a balance between the protection of ecosystems and ecological processes, and sustainable land development and use. Lack of public understanding of ecological processes and values leading to inappropriate land use. 17.2 Overview Since first human settlement in the District, large areas of native forests and shrub lands, freshwater indigenous wetlands, mangrove forest, mudflats and coastline have been lost or modified by direct or indirect human impacts. As a result of habitat changes, the District has a high number of endangered and threatened species. The effects on wildlife of loss of habitat vary, but for less mobile species with special habitat requirements, this can result in local extinction. More mobile species have special habitat requirements at certain stages of their life cycles, for example, the loss of breeding habitats could have serious long-term consequences for particular species. Habitats special to the District, and which are now poorly represented as natural ecological areas, include: • Taraire-puriri broadleaf forest remnants found on the basalt soils; • Mineralised flax, raupo and sedge swamps; • Acid peat bogs; • Podsol gumlands; • Lowland kahikatea/cabbage tree and swamp forest remnants; • Coastal forests and shrub lands; • Kauri and Podocarpus (rimu, matai, kahikatea, miro, kaiwaka, tanekaha forests); All of these habitat types have been severely reduced in area, or are highly modified and now often only occur as tiny modified relics of what once occurred in the District.

    Schedule of cruising boat destinations In Northland –Version 2 with council amendments © Prepared by Richard Brown on behalf of Auckland Yacht and Boating Association – September 2014 Amendments by Michael Payne –Policy Analyst, Ross Waters – Maritime Officer and Peter Thomas - Marine Officer Auckland Yacht and Boating Association would like to acknowledge the following sources of information Royal Akarana Yacht Club Coastal Cruising handbook Hauraki Gulf Boaties Atlas Lynn and Graeme Brown (Adamite) Pickmere Atlas of Northland’s East Coast Google Earth Doug Smeale Derry Godbert Port Opua – A Cruisers guide Notes for database of Northlands East Coast Bays Because of the very high number of bays on this coastline we have included only those which are potential anchorages. Consequently there are relatively few graded 1. Many bays are exposed to the Ocean and are thus generally unsuitable as overnight anchorages. They may however still be popular daytime anchorages with boats returning to more sheltered waters over night. Several bays have more than one name. Where we have identified them the extra names have been included but there are probably several bays whose alternative names have not been included. Every bay has been given a grading 1-3. These classifications are as follows-: 1 = Infrequently used as an anchorage either because of poor shelter, overcrowding moorings or better anchorages nearby. 2 = Popular anchorage – this could vary from a few boats in a small bay to many boats in a larger one. 3 = Strategic anchorage in that it is heavily relied on during bad weather – usually also popular in times of lighter winds of appropriate direction 3*= Strategic anchorage in that it is heavily relied on during bad weather but particularly popular as an anchorage.

  • Significant Ecological Estuarine Area Assessment Sheet for Wading and Aquatic Birds
    Significant Ecological Estuarine Area Assessment Sheet for Wading and Aquatic Birds Name/Area: Ngunguru Estuary Summary: The Ngunguru Estuary is a small estuary situated to the north-east of Whangarei Harbour. It has very small areas of tidal flat, but well buffered edges comprising mangroves, saltmarsh and adjacent shrubland and some exotic forestry. There is a little-modified sandspit at the entrance flanked by shrubland and forest linking south with Horahora Estuary, while a residential area (Ngunguru) lies on the northern side of the estuary. Low numbers of several threatened species frequent or visit the estuary mainly for feeding (refer Table below). The sandspit provides breeding habitat for northern NZ dotterel and variable oystercatcher and roosting flocks of several species. There are important populations of fernbirds, banded rails, crakes and Australasian bitterns in this area as well as recovering numbers of pateke (brown teal). The ecological significance of this estuary is High given the importance of the sandspit and the habitat sequences through to freshwater wetlands which collectively support many threatened and at risk species.
