1) TĀhuhu kŌrero / Background

Council receives funding based on a per capita basis and gave the three Community Boards delegated authority to allocate the funding.  Each Board receives a sum based on the number of people between ages five and nineteen living in their respective areas. Figures are based on the 2013 census results.  This funding round is the second of two funding rounds for the current financial year, for sporting activities taking place in winter, or until approximately September 2025 when the next round of funding is allocated.

Council advertises that funding is available approximately one month before applications close online (including on Council’s Facebook page), with the closing dates notified on the Rural Travel Funding page at the start of each calendar year (when the Community Board meetings dates are set). The Sport Northland representatives also forward information of the fund to clubs and schools that they work with as a more targeted approach to advertise the funding is available.

2) matapaki me NgĀ KŌwhiringa / Discussion and Options

It is each Community Board's role to determine which applications best meet the criteria and will have the most positive broad effect in their communities. The following table is a guide to the funding criteria.

Funding is available for activities taking place within the district. It is understood, that in some cases, competitions do not exist within the district and travel is required in which case the Community Boards may use their discretion.

Project reports for any previous grants have been received from all the current applicants. The funding recommendation summary is attached, with applications being provided under separate cover to the Board.

The total budget for rural travel funding for the 2024/25 financial year is $29,363. The percentage of youth throughout the district is translated into percentages to calculate the percentage of funding each Board can allocate. $3,075 was allocated by the Board for the summer round of applications.  The amount the board has available to grant for the Winter travel round is $10,432, which includes unallocated funding from the summer travel round.

(a) vehicles; and

(b) stands, stalls or mobile shops; and

Part 7 of the “Road Use Bylaw 2022” outlines the application, assessment and approval process. In particular, clause 20 outlines the conditions that can be imposed on all approvals granted under Part 7 of the Bylaw.

Alfresco dining approvals expire 30 June each year. Approval holders are required to renew their approval before it expires each year. If an approval holder renews their approval before the approval expires, their approval will continue to have effect until such time a decision is made on the renewal application.

He Take Ōkawa / Compliance Requirement

Aromatawai Kaimahi / Staff Assessment

State the level of significance (high or low) of the issue or proposal as determined by the Council’s Significance and Engagement Policy

The Alfresco Dining Policy 2014 was revoked on 30 June 2022. Regulation of alfresco dining is outlined in the Road Use Bylaw 2022.

The rules around approvals for alfresco dining are essentially unchanged, and therefore the level of significance for the recommendation to comment on the renewal of alfresco dining applications or new alfresco dining application is considered low.

State the relevant Council policies (external or internal), legislation, and/or community outcomes (as stated in the LTP) that relate to this decision.

2022 – Part 4 clause 13 and Part 7.

State whether this issue or proposal has a District wide relevance and, if not, the ways in which the appropriate Community Board’s views have been sought.

The Bay of Islands-Whangaroa Community Board have delegation over activities on reserves but also has delegation to comment on alfresco dining applications.

State the possible implications for Māori and how Māori have been provided with an opportunity to contribute to decision making if this decision is significant and relates to land and/or any body of water.

State the possible implications and how this report aligns with Te Tiriti o Waitangi / The Treaty of Waitangi.

Māori had an opportunity to contribute during the consultation process on the new Road Use Bylaw 2022.

The Road Use Bylaw 2022 was adopted on 19 May 2022.

Identify persons likely to be affected by or have an interest in the matter, and how you have given consideration to their views or preferences (for example – youth, the aged and those with disabilities).

Regulation of alfresco dining is of relevance to hospitality businesses, their employees, and all community members and visitors to the Far North District. However, the rules around licenses for alfresco dining have not changed in their effect, and therefore the level of significance of this decision is low.

 

State the financial implications and where budgetary provisions have been made to support this decision.

There are no financial implications to this decision
