  • Museums Policy
    Museums Policy 1 Introduction Wellington has good museums. In the last four years the sector has grown with the establishment of Te Papa, the Museum of Wellington City & Sea, and the development of smaller community and specialist museums. Wellington City Council plays an active role in the museums sector. Its key relationships can be summarised as follows: ! Te Papa receives sponsorship support from the Council. ! The Museums Trust receives funding from Council. The Trust manages the Museum of Wellington, City & Sea; the City Gallery; the Colonial Cottage; Capital E; the Cable Car Museum; and the Plimmers Ark Gallery. ! The Katherine Mansfield Birthplace and the Carter Observatory receive grants from the Council. Community proposals for new museums also occur frequently and there are important community based museum initiatives in the city. These sometimes involve a Council response concerning finance, advocacy, facilitation or other forms of assistance. 1.1 Why have a Museums Policy? The Local Government Act 1974 gives Councils the power to establish facilities and services which “provide for the recreation, amusement and instruction of the public”. The activities of museums would clearly fit within this provision. However, the scope of Council involvement, the relationship with regional and private initiatives and criteria for responding to requests for support in this area all require a policy framework. 1.2 What Does This Policy Aim to Achieve? This policy sets the direction for the Council’s involvement in museums services and provides a framework for its continued contribution to museums in Wellington. This policy may assist the Council in its roles with museums as funder, advocate and facilitator.

  • Draft Regional Passenger Transport Plan Dr Tr
    Draft Regional Passenger Draft Regional Passenger Transport Plan Transport Plan November 2006 November 2006 Foreword A Clear Direction in Changing Times Our Council is launching its Regional Passenger Transport Plan in changing times. We saw a dramatic increase in the numbers of passengers on both trains and buses during the past year. Unusually, there was even more growth in peak times than at off-peak times. A big question is whether this kind of growth will be sustained? The plan which follows sets a clear direction. Our Vision is for “a public transport network that helps people get around the region easily”. A key goal is to increase public transport’s share of all journeys. This is a testing target. Two other goals reinforce our vision. They seek an “accessible and integrated” network, and the “socially and environmentally sustainable economic development of the region.” The New Zealand Transport Strategy – Responsiveness v Affordability This strategy is the major Government transport policy document. It calls for a sustainable transport system that is also affordable, integrated, safe and responsive to our needs. The aim of the plan which follows is to be “responsive”. Our Council has the difficult task of determining how it may also be “affordable”. We will continue monitoring passenger usage carefully; then act only where a clear and established trend indicates action is needed. Our ten year financial plan for 2006-16 does already provide for a very considerable investment in rail rolling stock and other infrastructure. The overall passenger transport expenditure allowed for in that plan has significant effects on fares, rates and borrowing.
