7.1 Update on the Omnibus Reserve Management Plan

Kaituhi | Author: Yolanda Morgan, Team Leader Open Space Planning

Kaiwhakamana | Authoriser: Brendan Owens, Group Manager Customer and Community

Te pūtake | Purpose

1 This report provides background and an update on the proposed Omnibus Reserve Management Plan (RMP).

Taunakitanga | RECOMMENDATIONS

2 That the Waikanae Community Board note the update, in particular the timeframe for the commencement of public engagement and feedback, beginning in May 2025.

Tūāpapa | Background

3 Council manages 125 parks and reserves, totalling 438 ha of open space. This includes our destination parks, sports fields, esplanade reserves, neighbourhood parks and playgrounds, heritage, scenic and local purpose reserves.

4 The Open Space Planning team has been preparing to start the statutory process to develop an omnibus RMP, covering all 125 parks and reserves that are managed by the Council.

5 Hui with our iwi partners have been held to co-design our approach to the development of the RMP and we continue to work together to understand and document the values of the whenua which make up our parks and reserves.

6 Once the required background work has been completed, a recommendation will be put to Council to publicly notify our intention to prepare the RMP. This will start the process (stipulated in the Reserves Act) that must be followed to prepare an RMP.

7 Only land held as a reserve under the Act, and used for open space purposes, will be included in the management plan. Fee simple land, land managed primarily for other purposes (such as stormwater) and land not administered by the Kapiti Coast District Council will not be included in the Omnibus RMP.

8 A community consultation and engagement phase will commence in May 2025. At that stage, we will be asking our communities and stakeholders for feedback on the management and use of our reserves and what they would like to see incorporated into the management plan.

He take | issues

9 Council is required by legislation to prepare, and keep under continuous review, a management plan for the reserves that it manages. Council currently has management plans for only 19 reserves, and many of these plans are more than 30 years old.

10 In late 2022, Council adopted its Open Space Strategy which paved the way for the development of management plans that are consistent with the overarching goals and objectives for open space in district, as set out in the Strategy.

11 Reserve management plans provide for the use, enjoyment, maintenance, protection and preservation of reserves. Management plans provide guidance around what uses and activities are acceptable (or not acceptable) on individual or groups of reserves and ensures transparent and consistent decision making.

12 The legal status of an RMP varies according to the legal status of the land it covers:

12.1 For land that is held subject to the Reserves Act, and classified according to its primary purpose, it will be a statutory Reserve Management Plan under the Act.

12.2 For Council land that is managed for open space purposes, that has not yet been classified, it will be a non-statutory guiding document.

13 As part of the RMP process, Council is also undertaking a staged process to classify unclassified parks and reserves, where that is appropriate.

14 Through March and April, we will continue to discuss and confirm those sites to be classified with our iwi partners and key stakeholders. A recommendation to classify those reserves will be taken to Council, along with the recommendation to notify Council’s intention to prepare an RMP, in early May.

15 Any unclassified reserves that need further research or additional consultation with stakeholders, and those that need to be publicly notified due to their current use or legal status, will continue to be discussed and will be included in a future recommendation.

Ngā kōwhiringa | Options

16 An omnibus RMP is the most efficient option to meet the Council’s legislative requirements and enable both general provisions, as well as reserve specific provisions, to be provided in one document. The omnibus RMP will be made up of two sections:

A. General Policy Section

B. Reserve Specific Management Plans

While the document will be larger than an individual RMP, we intend to publish the plan using the E-plan platform to enable easy navigation. For example, users will be able to search by reserve name or address and be provided with links to all the relevant policies for that reserve.

Mana Whenua

17 The development of the project to date has followed a co-design approach with the involvement of representatives from our three iwi partners.

18 The RMP will acknowledge the cultural values of the whenua which make up our parks and reserves and will recognise the intrinsic relationship of iwi with the land through enabling appropriate practices, management provisions and storytelling.

19 We will continue to work with our iwi partners to refine the scope of the RMP and in drafting the provisions of the RMP.

ngā Mahi panuku | next steps

20 The preparation of an RMP must follow the process set out in the Reserves Act 1977. This includes two phases of public notification and engagement.

21 A recommendation will be taken to Council in May to pass a resolution to notify the intention to prepare an omnibus RMP. Once Council has passed the resolution, the public will be invited to provide feedback on those reserves that are to be included in the management plan.

22 The steps to prepare the RMP are as follows:

a. Publication of the notice of intent

b. Stakeholder and community engagement phase (first phase of public engagement) including:

i. Have your say platform

ii. Social media

iii. Staff “pop-ups” at community markets, coastlands and play events

iv. Community board meetings

v. Targeted stakeholder engagement

c. Feedback period closes

d. Analysis of public feedback and drafting of the RMP

e. Draft RMP document publicly notified and call for submissions (second phase of public engagement)

f. Submission period

g. Hearings

h. Recommendation and decision following hearings

i. Final RMP published

Waikanae Community Board Meeting Agenda

7.2 Waikanae Town Centre Planning

Kaituhi | Author: Laura Bertelsen, Advisor Strategic Projects

Kaiwhakamana | Authoriser: Kris Pervan, Group Manager Strategy & Growth

Te pūtake | Purpose

1 To provide an overview of the Town Centres Planning Project as part of Vision Kāpiti, with a focus on the Waikanae Town Centre Plan.

Taunakitanga | RECOMMENDATIONS

That the Waikanae Community Board:

A. Note the overview of the Town Centre Project

B. Endorse the proposed next steps to support the development of Town Centre Principles and Plans.

Tūāpapa | Background

2 Vision Kāpiti is a three-stage project to provide a coordinated community led approach to Council planning and development, by reflecting community needs to 2060 and beyond. Stage One is now complete, which focused on engagement to determine the needs and aspirations if our communities for the future.

3 Stage Two focuses on creating pathways based on community feedback, which will help inform the development of plans for each of the town centres in the District. The project will focus on the Paraparaumu, Waikanae and Ōtaki Town Centres initially, with plans for the other town centres to be developed at a later stage.

4 As part of developing the future town centres plans, the previous work undertaken by Council and other parties to support town centre planning is being referenced to understand previous feedback, potential options, issues and constraints.

5 The project will also take into consideration the impacts and changes the new expressways and other significant infrastructure have had on town centres and the role that they now play as a result of these changes. This includes the changing needs in the community way in which people work, live, socialise and commute.

He take | issues

6 To support this process, Council has engaged McIndoe Urban, experienced urban planners to help guide and undertake the development of the plans for each of the town centres. Property Economics have also been engaged to undertake an economic analysis of each of the town centres and understand current and future demand for retail, commercial and other space, as well as provide commentary on economic performance and viability.

7 The project aims to meet current community demands while being inclusive of future growth aspirations and ensuring any plans are future proofed, given the changing needs in the community. This includes reviewing the findings from the local community engagement undertaken as part of Vision Kāpiti.

8 While the initial stages of the project focus primarily on desktop analysis and understanding the current state, the next steps will be focused on external engagement. The project will involve mana whenua and targeted partner and stakeholder engagement through collaborative co-design spatial planning, aligning local visions with spatial, economic, housing, identity, planning, and funding parameters. Community drop-in sessions are also being planned.

Proposed partners and stakeholder groups include:

- Atiawa ki Whakarongotai

- Ngā Hapū o Ōtaki

- Ngāti Toa Rangatira

- Community Boards

- Disability Advisory Group

- Older Persons Council

- Youth Council

- Economic Development Kotahitanga Board

- Kāpiti Housing Solutions Trust

- Local Business Associations

- Kāpiti Business Chamber

Ngā kōwhiringa | Options

9 There are no options to consider in this update, however the Waikanae Community Board is invited to suggest any additional potential groups that should be engaged with as part of this project.

ngā Mahi panuku | next steps

10 In order to ensure comprehensive and inclusive engagement for the Town Centre project, the following steps will be undertaken:

a) Validate findings from current analysis

i. Review and confirm the accuracy of the analysis conducted so far.

b) Commence external engagement

i. Initiate and maintain meaningful collaboration with partners and stakeholders.

c) Develop Town Centre Principles

i. Formulate guiding principles for the town centre development.

10 Ngā Take e Mahia ana | Matters Under Action

10.1 Matters Under Action

Author: Kate Coutts, Advisor Governance

Authoriser: Brendan Owens, Group Manager Customer and Community

Te pūtake | Purpose

The purpose of this report is to present the Waikanae Community Board with the updated matters under action (as of 26 February 2025) to review and note.

TAUNAKITANGA | RECOMMENDATIONS

That the Waikanae Community Board notes the following matters under action.

Item	Date Raised	Matter	Progress
1.	Ongoing	Te Ara Whetū (Waikanae Library and Service Centre)	The project is currently in the Developed Design stage with the goal of moving into the Detailed Design stage at the end of April 2025. Procurement is currently underway for the main contractor. We hope to have the main contractor confirmed and be in a position to communicate who they are in late February/early March. We are hoping to be ready to submit the Building Consent documentation in July.
2.	21/5/24	Old State Highway 1 Beautification	The replacement of the footpath stormwater drain between Te Ara Tangata and Mahara Place outside the shops along old State Highway 1 was completed last year. Other improvements, such as connecting stormwater downpipes to the new drain and smoothing out the pavers is currently underway.
3.	09/11/21	Pharazyn Reserve Focus Group	Update from board representative Michelle Lewis to be provided as a standing item at each board meeting.
4.	01/02/22	Status of reserves in Waikanae	Council staff will be attending the upcoming Waikanae Community Board meeting on 4 March 2025 to speak to an update on the Omnibus Reserve Management Plan.
5.	01/02/21	Work planned for Waikanae Park	The Waikanae Park Development plan has been received from Recreation, Sport and Leisure (RSL) and was presented to the Waikanae Community Board early June 2024. A copy of the report and plan was circulated to the board. A project plan for the proposed play space upgrade under this Development Plan was presented to the Capital Project Management Board (CPMB) and the first design stage has been approved as part of the Capital Works program for this financial year. A procurement request is currently live on GETS (the procurement tender system) seeking expressions of interest from potential providers for the design/build of the new playground and skatepark. Only community engagement around design is still proposed to take place this financial year, with actual works only commencing in the 2025/26 financial year.
6.	01/06/22	Waikanae Beach Hall future plans	There is currently no plan or significant budget to address the existing Waikanae Beach Hall, which under Government Legislation must be strengthened by December 2033 if it is to remain open. The Council Property Unit are carrying out regular weekly inspections of this site, checking on the exterior and interior condition of the Hall.
7.	22/11/22	Beach Access	The Tracks and Trails Advisor continues to work through prioritised maintenance and repair requirements for beach accessways across the district. As part of this, there are internal workshops underway between all council departments with an interest in this space with a view towards prioritising accessways for consolidation as per the Asset Management Plan. The Beach Accessways Asset Management Plan (AMP) was approved by the Strategy, Operations and Finance Committee in November 2023 as the overarching guiding principles for managing our Beach Accessways. This AMP signalled the need for consolidation and prioritising of upgrades against the stated Levels of Service. The wider operationalising of the program will not go out for further consultation (albeit the community boards will be kept updated), however the development of the six identified ‘Destination’ beach accessways would enjoy the same level of design input and public participation that our playground renewals and replacements have.
8.	2/5/23	Flooding of the Mangaone Stream at Te Horo Beach Road	Update from the Waikanae Community Board Chair to be provided as a standing item at each board meeting.
9.	1/8/23	Waikanae Visioning Work	The first stage of Vision Kāpiti was completed late last year. A summary of community feedback on what’s important can be found here. The next stage of work will identify key stakeholders and opportunities and constraints that could help achieve our communities’ aspirations. This information will be shared in the coming months and help support work to test scenarios and community preferences and priorities towards the middle of the year.
10.	12/9/23	Waimanu Lagoons Weir	The process of engaging a suitable contractor to conduct further investigative work required to determine the extent of the repair works needed has commenced. At this stage an accurate timeframe for the works cannot be provided, but once the investigative work is completed, Council staff will inform the Waimanu Lagoons Focus Group.
11.	31/10/23	Reikorangi Hall	The Reikorangi Hall seismic and associated upgrade work has been completed, and the Hall has been opened and is now available for community and event bookings. The playground has also been installed and opened. The redundant exterior toilet (old tank) is to be removed, and groundworks surrounding the area are anticipated to be completed by the end of March.
12.	21/5/24	Schedule of Works Planned for Waikanae (2024/25 Financial Year)	Due to the significant reduction in funding from Waka Kotahi NZTA, there are no footpath renewals allocated in the Waikanae Ward this financial year. There have been limited replacements districtwide due to the constrained budget. The schedule of works planned for Waikanae in the 2024/25 financial year is appended at Attachment 1.

*No update to the item since the last Waikanae Community Board meeting.
