6.1 Chairperson and Members Report Agenda item 6.1 document number A2427582, pages 16 - 20 refers |
Resolution 2019/39 Moved: Chairperson Mike Edmonds Seconded: Cr John Vujcich The board amends the strategic statement updated at the February 2019 meeting by adding the following words:
Electoral Representation
The 2010 Representation Review resulted in Okaihau being split across two subdivisions – despite a number of objections. It is the board’s position that this decision was counterintuitive and appeared to be a simple exercise of balancing numbers despite the provisions of the Local Electoral Act (2001) S19JA(2). The board supports the realignment of subdivisions (in the 2022 Representation Review) so that Okaihau again sits within one subdivision.
Funding Priorities
The board will give higher priority to funding requests: - for events that are identified within community plans - for projects that are identified within community plans - for seed funding (including initial design, business case, feasibility study) for projects that the board considers have a good chance of success and that will generate a significant multiple of the funding amount - and that up to $2500 be allocated for a Christmas parade (or similar function) in each of Rawene and Kaikohe.
Council Procurement
The board supports any change to the procurement practices of the FNDC such that the following local factors be taken into account: - social benefit - economic benefit - environmental benefit - maintenance of community capacity (in whatever form)” CARRIED Moved: Chairperson Mike Edmonds Seconded: Cr John Vujcich That the Kaikohe-Hokianga Community Board notes the reports from the Chairperson and Member Reilly. |
