What we propose in your local board area in 2021/2022
We will:
progress actions in the Waitākere ki Tua Action Plan and lift Māori participation in local decision-making
investigate options for Te Rangi Hiroa Reserve nursery site, with a focus on community-led sustainability and food initiatives
progress initiatives such as street tree planting and develop a community-led climate action plan to lower Henderson-Massey’s carbon footprint.
Key areas of spend
Community services
Operating spend 2021/2022: $30 million
Capital spend 2021/2022: $8.9 million
Environmental services
Operating spend 2021/2022: $273,000
Planning services
$764,000
Governance
Operating spend 2021/2022: $8.9 million
Key advocacy initiatives for 2021-2031
We will advocate to the Governing Body:
to retain funding in the 10-year budget to progress the work on aquatic provision in the northwest
to reinstate Auckland Transport’s Local Board Transport Capital Fund to pre-emergency budget levels for all local boards and restore the funding formally allocated by local boards before the budget was adopted
for funding in the 10-year budget to progress the proposed permanent facility for Waitākere Outrigger Canoe (Waka Ama) Club in Te Atatū South (consultation, detailed design, consenting and a detailed estimate) - his would help address the gap in regional support for Waka Ama, one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s fastest growing sports
to fund the Waitangi at Waititi event as part of the regional event programme given the significant number of Aucklanders from across the region who attend the event.
We will also advocate to central government and the Governing Body for funding in the 10-year budget for the remaining sections of Te Whau Pathway, not covered by the “shovel-ready” central government project funding, to be completed.
Other focus points
We will:
ensure community spaces cater for our diverse communities and are accessible and welcoming places
enhance a sense of belonging and safety in our town centres and community spaces
continue providing quality parks and playgrounds, libraries, community and recreation facilities, and events.
