Hamilton City Council
Submission by Hamilton City Council WATER SERVICES BILL 26 February 2021 1.0 SUMMARY OF HCC’S KEY POINTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 1.1 HCC’s previous submission on the new Crown agency Taumata Arowai supported the agency and resource management reforms that would provide clear, consistent leadership and guidance, build capability, support suppliers, manage risks and improve environmental performance. 1.2 We support the overall intent, direction and proposals in the Water Services Bill insofar as it provides a regulatory framework aligning with fundamental principles of drinking water safety. 1.3 Under three waters reform, there will be different models of service delivery for water services. The Bill does not provide enough clarity on these models as they relate to owners, operators and suppliers and their points of supply and the division of responsibilities. The duty to manage, monitor, notify and remediate risk has not been considered in the context of the best entity to comply with duties. 1.4 We recommend a review of the models of service delivery, suppliers and their points of supply, source water management, and a re‐evaluation on how these relate to powers and duties. 1.5 HCC also recommends better direction and integration of wastewater and stormwater services in the Bill. Giving effect to Te Mana o te Wai could also be better integrated throughout the Bill. 1.6 Emergency powers of Taumata Arowai as they relate to civil defence is not supported as there appears to be an over‐ride of powers. A Territorial Authority’s own powers to enforce measures to protect supplies must also be strengthened in the Bill. -
Hagley Oval Section 71 Proposal - Further Information Available
SUBMISSION ON S71 CHANGES TO THE DISTRICT PLAN - HAGLEY OVAL. My name iss9(2)(a I was part of a group that took part in the Environment Court EC and attended each day for 5 weeks. I learned during that case and subseq uently, to be wary of anything Canterbury Cricket Trust CCT says and even more so what they don't say. I have put in a submission on behalf of HO H, concentrating on amenity. This is my personal submission dealing with the proposed changes requested by CCT and their impact on Hagley Park and its other users. I believe that the use of S71 in this instance is wrong. The ability to question expert evidence and present opposing expert evidence is essential in this sensitive proposal. The RMA is the vehicle t hat can provide this. The minister is no doubt aware of the section in the letter of expectation that advises her regarding the use of S71, where the RMA could be used instead. Also the amendment to the Regenerate act proposed by the current minister Megan Wood and passed unanimously by Parliament protecting Hagley Park from the Regen Act. https://www.parliament.nz/en/pb/hansard This states: "But what we are saying is that when it comes to Hagley Park and the protections that have been built up over that piece of land, it actually is time to return to business as usual. When it comes to that particular taonga in the centre of our city, we do need to be able to say, it is if the earthquakes never happened and it is as if the bespoke legislation that is put in place to aid our recovery and our regeneration does not exist...."
