To consider the submissions to the 2021-31 Long-term Plan Consultation Document on matters relating to the Cromwell ward. The Board considered all submissions and noted the staff comments. Following discussion a number of resolutions were agreed as set out below. In addition to the formal resolutions, the Board noted the following: Crematorium - that the Alexandra crematorium is a commercial operation on land leased from the Council and that the Board would consider an application or formal proposal should one be forthcoming.
Mountain Bike Club - that some thought was taking place about Council’s open spaces and this request could be part of that.
Big Fruit - that repainting of the Big Fruit was included in existing budgets and would be carried forward, also noted that the anticipated cost had increased and the Board would be considering a report on this.
Multipurpose Sports Centre – the Board would keep a watching brief and would work with other organisations on broader discussions about the needs of the community into the future.
Skatepark Upgrade – that scoping work was included in the Long-term Plan into the future and that there would be consultation prior to that. The Board also discussed safety improvements in the area.
Carparking - that a number of submissions had been received about carparking and that a parking survey had identified some pinch points. It was recognised that parking was important, and that appropriate provision needed to be allowed for in the town centre as part of any upgrade or development.
Traffic Lights – the reference in the draft Long-term Plan about traffic lights was a principal alternative rather than options under consideration.
The Board noted that it wished to work directly with both the Cromwell Cultural Centre Trust and the Cromwell Town and Country Club as plan progressed.
In regard to the Cromwell Youth Trust the Board noted that they considered the Trust to be part of its thinking in terms of the resource centre proposal in the town centre project of the Cromwell Masterplan.

21.5.2 Road Name Approval Report - off Cemetery Road, Cromwell
Doc ID: 533713
1. Purpose of Report
To consider a request to name four public roads in a new development off Cemetery Road, Cromwell.
That the Cromwell Community Board A. Receives the report and accepts the level of significance. B. Approves four new road names as recommended. |
2. Background
The four-stage development off Cemetery Road is a Central Otago District Council development project. Road names for the first three stages are required to be selected.
3. Discussion
The attached plan (appendix 1) shows the four roads to be named. The first name for consideration is Dunn Road after Fred Dunn, a former Cromwell Mayor from 1951-1956. Mr Dunn was also a local accountant. This road is identified as Road 1 on the plan in appendix 1.
As the development is off Cemetery Road and sitting alongside a cemetery the other names have been selected with this theme in mind. Pastor Way is Road 2 on the attached plan. Sexton Crescent is Road 3 and Restin Place is Road 4.
Alternative names could be selected from the Cromwell Community Board’s approved names list (appendix 2).
4. Options
Option 1 – (Recommended)
Name the four roads Dunn Road, Pastor Way, Sexton Crescent and Restin Place.
Advantages:
· Names are the first choice of the developer.
· Names meet Council policy.
Disadvantages:
· None.
Option 2

21.5.3 Cromwell Bike Park Shelter Construction
Doc ID: 532026
1. Purpose of Report
To consider a request from the Cromwell Bike Park Incorporated to the construct a shelter over the existing starting ramps at the facility on the Neplusultra Recreation Reserve.
That the Cromwell Community Board A. Receives the report and accepts the level of significance. B. Approves the Cromwell Bike Park erecting a shelter over the existing starting ramps subject to necessary consents being sought and approved, and subject to the Minister of Conservation’s consent as per Clause 7.2 of the lease. C. Authorises the Chief Executive to do all that is necessary to give effect to the resolution.
|
2. Background
The Cromwell Bike Park lease covers an area of about 1.0 ha of the Neplusultra Recreation Reserve. It is described as being part of Lots 1 and 2 Deposited Plan 19357.
The lease approves the use of the area as a bike park, incorporating a BMX track, learn to ride track, pump track and jump park.
An overview of the lease terms are as follows:
Commencement Date: 1 July 2013
Term: Five (5) years
Rights of Renewal: One further term of five (5) years
Final Expiry Date: 30 June 2023
Annual Rent: One (1) dollar per annum if demanded
3. Discussion
Cromwell Bike Park Incorporated are seeking Board approval to erect a shelter over the existing starting block position. The cost of this is being sponsored by James Dodd, of Wide Span Sheds.
Erecting the shelter is consistent with the Neplusultra Recreation Reserve Management Plan in that it encourages the facilitation of the reserve for recreation and sporting purposes for the welfare and enjoyment of the public.
The addition of a shelter to the Cromwell Bike Park will enhance the site’s usage amenity. The shelter would provide protection to event participants in inclement weather, and as a result Cromwell Bike Park could be looked upon more favourably as a venue for holding national or other major events.
Neighbours have been consulted and are not opposed to the shelter’s construction.
Below is a concept illustration:
The lease between Central Otago District Council and the Cromwell Bike Park Incorporated includes the following clauses regarding the erection of structures:
7.2

11.1
THE Lessee shall not carry on any business or activity on the land other than the permitted use specified in the First Schedule. The Lessee shall comply with any statutes, regulations, ordinances or bylaws applicable thereto and shall conduct all operations in a proper and efficient manner so as to provide a bona fide service to the public to the satisfaction of the Lesser.
As such, the Cromwell Community Board’s permission is being requested to erect the proposed shelter. The Minister of Conservation’s consent can then be sought.
4. Options
Option 1 – (Recommended)
Approve the Cromwell Bike Park erecting a shelter over the existing starting ramps subject to necessary consents being sought and approved, and subject to the Minister of Conservation’s consent as per Clause 7.2 of the lease.
Advantages:

Risks Analysis |
The necessary building consent to erect the shelter could be declined. In this case, however, the shelter design could be modified to meet consenting requirements.
|
Significance, Consultation and Engagement (internal and external) |
The decision is not considered significant with regard to the Significance and Engagement Policy. Firstly, it fits within the existing Neplusultra Street Reserve Management Plan. Secondly, a good understanding of the views of the persons likely to be affected by the matter has been gained through consulting with the site’s neighbours, who are not opposed to the shelter’s construction.

21.5.4 Cromwell Big Fruit sculpture painting budget request
Doc ID: 533068
1. Purpose of Report
To consider providing funding from Cromwell General Reserves to repaint the Big Fruit sculpture.
That the Cromwell Community Board A. Receives the report and accepts the level of significance. B. Approves allocating $50,000 from Cromwell General Reserves, for the repainting of the Big Fruit sculpture in the 2021/2022 financial year.
|
2. Background
A budget of $50,000 was provided in the 2020/2021 Annual Plan to repaint the Big Fruit sculpture in Cromwell.
The sculpture was last repainted in 2016. This was a significant undertaking due to the artwork then not having been painted since 2004. According to the specification for the 2016 work, the fruit structures were coated with suitable products that had been developed for fibreglass application. The cost of repainting in 2016 was approximately $37,000.
In preparing the 2018–2028 Long-Term Plan more regular painting was intended, with funding ($50,000) approved for the works every five years.
A further project proposed for the 2018–2028 Long-Term Plan, to apply a clear coat lacquer in 2019/2020 to help reduce fade, was not included in the final plan. Funding to clean the sculpture was also not included.
In 2021, preparations began to repaint the sculpture as planned. Sourcing a suitable and willing supplier for the work has been challenging, and the contractor who completed a full repaint in 2016 is no longer operating.
Due to the nature of the work, direct enquiries were made to four other painting contractors to cost the work. However, those contacted declined the opportunity.
A coating specialist, who is considered competent to complete the works and was working on another Council project at the time, was eventually identified, and they agreed to provide a proposal.
The proposal received, which provides for specialist coatings and significant scaffold, is quoted at $94,500, exceeding the budget by almost 100%. Scaffolding constitutes almost half the cost.
With a limited market to select a contractor from, and the asset having faded considerably since the last repaint in 2016, the Board’s approval is sought to fund the received proposal and complete the work in the 2021/2022 financial year.
3. Discussion
Despite the sound methodology and use of appropriate materials to repaint the sculpture in 2016, the freshness of the paint scheme has since faded as the appearance and integrity of the coating is at the mercy of the climate.
Although an application of clear coat lacquer and annual cleaning is recommended by the manufacturer of the products that were applied, neither of these has been carried out in the intervening years.
Council received a quote for the work at $94,500. Therefore, in addition to the $50,000 already committed, a further $50,000 is requested to repaint the sculpture in summer 2021/2022. This includes application of a clear coat lacquer.
The funding source for this request is the Cromwell General Reserves account, which currently has a forecast balance on 30 June 2021 of $4,804,266.
The funding already committed to the project is also funded from the Cromwell General Reserves and will require carrying forward to provide the full budget required.
The sculpture will be depreciated, which is rate funded, over four years to replenish the Cromwell General Reserves.
To reduce this impact further it is recommended that funding also be set aside to clean the sculpture annually and apply a clear coat lacquer every second year. This aligns with the recommendation of the product manufacturer and will extend the period between full repaints, maintaining the bright colour of the structure for longer and therefore deferring expense.
It is difficult to say precisely how long the period between full repaints will be extended by. The exact timeframe will be greatly affected environmental conditions, and as this is a new method for the Cromwell Big Fruit sculpture, there is no prior reference. Therefore, it is proposed to continue the current budgeting for repainting (i.e. every five years) until a better understanding of the required repainting timeframe is established.
If the immediate budget request is approved, the funding of depreciation will be addressed in subsequent annual plans. The preventative maintenance works will be considered through the 2022–2023 Annual Plan.
By comparison: Gore Trout
To better understand the method and cost for this work, comparison was sought with public sculptures in other places.
The nearest, although subject to a different environment, is the slightly smaller Gore trout. Manufactured from similar materials, Gore District Council budget $16,000 every second year to lacquer the structure, and $2,000 every other year to wash the structure down.
This method maintains the freshness of the sculpture’s appearance and means the trout rarely requires fully repainting.
Over a ten-year plan period, this approach requires an $88,000 investment by the Gore District Council.
4. Options
Option 1 – (Recommended)
That $50,000, is funded from Cromwell General Reserves, for the repainting of the Big Fruit sculpture in the 2021/2022 financial year.
Advantages:
· The asset is preserved and protected.
· Benefits the community and visitors by providing an attractive entrance to Cromwell.
Disadvantages:
· Increases the financial commitment in the 2021/2022 financial year.
Option 2
Defer the painting to a future year.
Advantages:
· Defers discussion of expenditure to a future annual or long-term plan.
Disadvantages:
· Further fading of the sculpture’s appearance over time.
· May generate complaints about the appearance of the structure.
5. Compliance
Local Government Act 2002 Purpose Provisions |
This decision enables democratic local decision making and action by, and on behalf of communities through considering the financial impact of asset management implications such as the routine cost of maintaining artworks.
|
Financial implications – Is this decision consistent with proposed activities and budgets in long term plan/annual plan? |
This decision has an expenditure of $50,000 in the 2021/2022 financial year. This project will be funded from Cromwell General Reserves which has a forecast balance 30 June 2020 of $4,804,266.
|
Decision consistent with other Council plans and policies? Such as the District Plan, Economic Development Strategy etc. |
Through regular maintenance, the life of the asset is extended, effectively deferring significant investment in renewing it.
Periodic cleaning and lacquering the asset would further extend the renewal period.
|
Considerations as to sustainability, the environment and climate change impacts |
Maintaining this asset does not detrimentally affect the local environment or climate.
|
Risks Analysis |
There are no perceived key risks identified.
|
Significance, Consultation and Engagement (internal and external) |
The decision is not considered significant under Council’s significance and engagement policy.
|
6. Next Steps
Secure the contractor to complete the works in summer 2021/2022.

21.5.5 Cromwell Football Club Application to Site a Container
Doc ID: 535454
1. Purpose of Report
To consider a request from the Cromwell Football Club to temporarily site a 6-metre storage container adjacent to the Alpha Street Reserve clubrooms.
That the Cromwell Community Board A. Receives the report and accepts the level of significance. B. Authorises the Cromwell Football Club to temporarily locate a 6-metre container adjacent to the Alpha Street Clubrooms. C. Authorises that a licence to occupy for the container is issued in terms of the Reserves Act 1977 and in accordance with Council’s Community Leasing and Licensing Policy for a period of two years at $1.00 per annum (if demanded). D. Authorise the Chief Executive to do everything necessary to give effect to the resolution.
|
2. Background
Increasing membership in the Cromwell Football Club (the Club) in recent years, has resulted in the Club having to utilise space within the clubrooms for changing rooms. This area was previously used as storage space. The Club seasonally rent the Alpha Street Clubrooms from Council.
3. Discussion
The Club propose that a 6-metre container would be adequate for their storage needs, and could be located adjacent to the existing clubrooms. The Club’s request is outlined in more detail in Appendix 1. A plan indicating the preferred site is shown in Appendix 2.
The Cromwell Sports Park Reserve Management Plan 2015 provides the following guidance regarding buildings on Alpha Street Reserve:
Buildings and Other Structures This policy seeks to ensure that buildings and structures do not dominate the Cromwell sports parks and that it remains predominantly an area for recreation and organised sport.
Objectives
1 To ensure the provision and maintenance of buildings and other structures of a design and scale suited to the environment and appropriate to facilitate public recreational use and enjoyment of outdoor spaces.
2 To ensure all buildings managed and owned by clubs on reserve land have a current lease agreement.
POLICIES
1 Buildings on Anderson Park and/or Alpha Street Reserve shall be provided for the specific proven needs of the users where this provision does not detrimentally affect the appearance or utilisation of the park.
2 A new building will only be erected where it is not suitable to use a modified existing building, or possible to share facilities with other users.
3 New buildings on the park shall be located only where:
3.1 Neither they, nor associated car parking, unduly restrict the area useable for outdoor recreation.
3.2 They do not obstruct the entrances to the park, either physically or visually.
3.3 They do not detract from the open nature of the park, especially as seen from surrounding roads.
4 The design of all buildings and structures proposed to be erected shall be referred to Council or its delegated representative for approval.
5 All new buildings and structures shall be of a size and design that:
5.1 Is such that they provide no more than a service ancillary to the use of the area for sport.
5.2 Is to acceptable architectural standards
5.3 Is in scale with, and suited to, the character of the park.
5.4 If possible, they shall be sited so that they can be extended to provide such further facilities as may be required at a later date.
6 Buildings shall be designed or modified for multi-purpose use where practicable
The requirement for increased storage has been demonstrated through the Club’s growth in numbers and necessity for ad-hoc solutions for changing room facilities.
The Club’s request for the siting of the container is of a temporary nature, until they can secure more permanent storage options. The siting of a container on the reserve will require Council to issue a licence to occupy for the container to comply with the Reserves Act 1977. It is proposed that the container would be issued a licence to occupy for two years. Before any renewal was contemplated Council and the Club would undertake a review as to whether the container was still required.
Containers are functional and robust. To reduce the impact that the container may have on visual amenity, the Club have indicated that they will paint the container to blend in with the surroundings. Siting of the container adjacent to the clubrooms would help minimise the visual impact of the container and would not restrict parking or use of the park.
The request received also asks for the installation of a shower within the clubrooms. The possibility for Council to lease the clubrooms to the Club on a longer-term basis (rather than the current seasonal arrangement) is also requested. These matters will be addressed in a separate report that will be presented to the Board for consideration at its July 2021 meeting.
4. Options
Option 1 – (Recommended)
That the Board:
· Authorises Cromwell Football Club to temporarily locate a 6-metre container adjacent to the Alpha Street clubrooms.
· Authorises that a licence to occupy for the container is issued in terms of the Reserves Act 1977 and in accordance with Council’s Community Leasing and Licensing Policy for a period of two years at $1.00 per annum (if demanded).
Advantages:
· The Club’s storage issues would be solved in the short term, allowing them to fully utilise the clubrooms they lease.
· The container would be licenced for two years, during which time Council and the Club would undertake a review as to whether the container was still required.
· There is no cost to Council.
Disadvantages:
· A container would be sited on the reserve, which may have a negative impact on visual amenity.
Option 2
That the Board does not authorise the Cromwell Football Club to temporarily locate a 6-metre container adjacent to the Alpha Street Clubrooms.
Advantages:
· There would be no additional structures sited on the reserve.
Disadvantages:
· The Club would still have issues with storing their equipment and could not fully utilise the clubrooms they lease.
5. Compliance
Local Government Act 2002 Purpose Provisions |
This decision promotes the social and cultural wellbeing of communities, in the present and for the future by providing much needed storage space for a growing sports club.
|
Financial implications – Is this decision consistent with proposed activities and budgets in long term plan/annual plan? |
There is no cost to Council in this proposal. The Club pay $573 per year for rental of the Alpha Street clubrooms. It is proposed that the licence to occupy that is needed for the container is levied at $1 per annum (if demanded).
|
Decision consistent with other Council plans and policies? Such as the District Plan, Economic Development Strategy etc. |
This decision is consistent with the Cromwell Sports Park Reserve Management Plan 2015, and any licence to occupy would be consistent with Council’s Community Leasing and Licensing Policy.
|
Considerations as to sustainability, the environment and climate change impacts |
There are no environmental impacts related to this decision.
|
Risks Analysis |
There are no risks identified with this decision.
|
Significance, Consultation and Engagement (internal and external) |
Regarding Council’s Significance and Engagement policy, no consultation is required.
|
6. Next Steps
The Club will be advised of the Board’s decision.

Cromwell Community Board meeting |
15 June 2021 |
Cromwell Football Club: Application to site 6m container adjacent to clubrooms
On 24 May 2021, representatives of the Cromwell and Alexandra football clubs met with CODC staff to review progress relating to the temporary siting of containers on council-owned land, for the purpose of club storage.
Both clubs are growing, and existing storage provided by their landlords (the Cromwell community board and the Cromwell netball club respectively) is insufficient for the purpose of storing football kit, balls, training aides, flag poles, football nets and associated equipment.
There is no available alternative accommodation to meet either clubs’ storage requirements.
Precedents
There are clear precedents in the ward, district and region where clubs have been allowed to site containers for the purpose of club storage. They are at the Cromwell Rugby Club (ward), the Alexandra Netball Club (district) and the Wanaka Recreation Centre (region) – the latter which accommodates three containers for different sporting clubs utilising the facility.
All have been granted board/council consent. None have been graffitied. All are adjacent to the recreational area utilised by the clubs.
Reason for urgency
The junior community football season is relatively brief. It concludes at the end of July. Rep and senior football continue after that time.
The Cromwell Football Club hosts teams from other areas and regions including a monthly hosting of all junior teams from Wanaka, Queenstown and Alexandra in competitions ranging from the under 6s grade to under 17 teams. Approximately
750 junior players and their families come to Cromwell on those Sundays.
The club’s facilities are currently inadequate to properly host these tournaments.
In addition, the Cromwell senior and under 17 teams regularly host visiting football teams in their respective grades but no showers nor hot water is available to the club players or their visitors.
Physical Siting
The Cromwell football club is proposing to site the container out of the direct sightlines from the street and parallel to the river side wall of the clubrooms.
The dimensions of a 20-foot container are: Exterior Dimensions (in feet): 20' long x 8' wide x 8' 6” high. Exterior Dimensions (in meters): 6.10m long x 2.44m wide x 2.59m high. Interior Dimensions (in feet): 19' 4” long x 7' 9” wide x 7' 10” high.
The container will be painted to blend in with the adjacent surrounds.
Showers for the Clubrooms
The Cromwell Football club has only just been made aware, by CODC staff, that there is no provision in the CODC or Cromwell Community Board annual or ten-year plans, for the installation of hot showers in the clubrooms.
Proposed minor capital works were not listed in any consultation documents that accompanied the above draft plans, and the club’s assumption, that the current situation of no hot water/showers being soon rectified, has proven incorrect.
We understand the approximate cost of installing hot showers is $10,000. They previously existed but the heating units have since been removed by the board/council and no showers are possible. This has senior/youth hosting and tournament implications for the club, but also for the wider community.
The Cromwell Football club is seeking the installation of hot showers within the coming financial year.
Future of Football Pavilion/Clubrooms
Currently the CCB/CODC own the football clubrooms. The Alpha Street grounds are a recreational reserve but, apart from the yearly classic car show and the occasional circus, the grounds are almost exclusively used for football in winter, and summer/twilight soccer over the warmer months.
In the next twelve months, and after the container and showers issues are resolved, the club would like to engage in consultations with the CODC about potentially owning the clubrooms. This would have the potential effect of creating an appropriate football reserve and allowing the club to develop the facilities without the need to continually seek formal approval for every minor issue.
In the short-term, the club seeks to;
a) Locate a 20-foot container on-site for storage purposes.
b) Have hot water and working showers installed at the clubrooms.
Alternative options
a) Container storage – the nearest storage facility is that associated with the Cromwell Bowling Club, but it is too distant for playing and practical purposes.
b) Showers – the alternative is to delay the installation of showers/hot water and engage with the Cromwell Football club about transferring ownership of the current building to the club for a nominal sum.

21.5.6 Revocation of Part of Greenway Reserve off Waenga Drive
Doc ID: 535485
1. Purpose of Report
Consider recommending to Council to revoke the Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve classification for 619m² (subject to survey) from Lot 201 DP 359519 which is part of Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve.
That the Cromwell Community Board A. Receives the report and accepts the level of significance. B. Recommends Council agrees to progressing the revocation of the Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve classification from the specified 619m² (subject to survey) area from Lot 201 DP 359519 for the reasons set out in the report.
C. Recommends Council publicly notify the proposed revocation in accordance with section 24(2)(b) of the Reserve Act 1977.
D. Recommends (following the successful completion of the public notification process, and decision) that the Minister of Conservation is notified in writing of the Council decision and request that the specified part of Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve be approved for revocation and notified in the Gazette.
E. Recommends that if reserve status of the specified Part of Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve is successfully revoked via Gazette notice, that all affected parties are notified and the underlying land is disposed of, subject to subdivision, to the adjoining landowner being Foodstuffs South Island Properties Limited on behalf of Cromwell New World.
F. Recommends that the remainder of Lot 201 DP 359519 of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve (excluding the relevant part of Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve in recommendation B above) remain as Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve.
|
2. Background
A report detailing a request from Foodstuffs South Island Properties Ltd (Foodstuffs) to purchase this 619m² of greenway adjacent to the New World site in Waenga drive was considered by the Cromwell Community Board (the Board) at its meetings of 5 February 2019 and 30 June 2020.
The Community Board recommended that Council agree to sell the specified Part of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve on terms and conditions which included the requirement for public notification of the revocation of the reserve status and the Minister of Conservation consenting to the revocation of the reserve status. Foodstuffs are to meet the costs of this process.
The part of the reserve sought to be revoked is 619m2 more or less (subject to survey) and part of Lot 201 DP 359519, which was vested in the Central Otago District Council (Council), as a Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve in 2006. It forms part of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve which is an open space system with pathways linking residences and the town centre. It provides a safe route for members of the community for running, walking and cycling while staying off the roads.
A conditional agreement for sale and purchase was subsequently entered into with Foodstuffs. This report seeks to advance the revocation of that Part of the Greenway Reserve off Waenga Drive. If the revocation process is approved the land can then be disposed of by sale to the adjoining landowner, Foodstuffs.
The Board’s resolution from June 2020 is below:
That the Board:
A. Receives the report and accepts the level of significance.
B. Recommends to Council to agree to sell 609m² (subject to survey) from Lot 201 D P 359519, known as Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve, to the adjoining landowner Foodstuffs South Island Properties Ltd, on terms and conditions to be agreed by the Chief Executive Officer and at a price based on valuation advice.
C. Recommends Council include the following minimum terms and conditions:
· The land being developed in line with the landscape concept plan provided by the purchaser.
· The Chief Executive determining the sale price based on valuation advice.
· The Chief Executive agreeing to the final detail of the redevelopment of the reserve immediately adjoining Cromwell New World and that work is arranged and funded by the purchaser. The final sign off of practical completion is to be by the Parks and Recreation Manager.
· The purchaser obtaining resource consent for the boundary adjustment and all necessary land use consents.
· The purchaser meeting all survey and legal costs.
· Public advertising under Section 24(2) of the Reserves Act of revocation of the reserve status. Costs to be covered by the applicant.
· The Minister of Conservation consenting to revocation of the reserve status over the 609 m² of reserve land.
D. Recommends that all submissions received will be considered by Council’s Hearings Panel.
E. Resolves that the Chief Executive Officer be delegated the authority to determine the final terms of sale
The relevant part of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve is outlined in red on the below plan:
Reserve status and relevant statutory provisions
The reserve is subject to section 23 of the Reserves Act 1977 (the Act). Council is the administering body of the reserve.
The reserve is classified as a Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve. The purpose of a Local Purpose reserve is for providing and retaining areas for such local purpose or purposes as are specified in any classification of the reserve.
Pursuant to section 24 and 24A of the Reserves Act 1977, the Council (as administering body) should:
· Resolve that the reservation of the reserve should be revoked and provide reasons.
· Publicly notify the proposal and specify the reasons for the proposal.
· Council’s Hearings Panel will hear any submissions received and make recommendations to Council.
· Council makes a resolution on the recommendations received from the Hearings Panel.
· If the recommendation is to revoke the reserve status, notify the Minister of Conservation in writing of the resolution and request the revocation be approved and notified by Gazette notice; and
· Receive the decision of the Minister of Conservation, and notify the affected parties.
· On receipt of the Gazette notice record the revocation and arrange disposal.
If revocation of the reserve status is confirmed then it will remain Council land prior to being subdivided then disposed of.
It is Council’s statutory duty to consult with the community in its decision making under the Reserves Act 1977. The proposal to revoke the reserve status and dispose of the Part of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve will be publicly notified, giving the opportunity for the public to make submissions.
The proposed Public Notice is attached as Appendix 1, and the Statement of Proposal is attached as Appendix 2.
Council’s Hearings Panel is delegated to hear submissions that relate to section 24(2)(b) and 24(2)(c) of the Reserves Act 1977. This process falls under these sections of the Act.
3. Discussion
Benefits from renewal of residual reserve
Alternative expanded store layouts/designs and feasible relocation options within the town centre have been investigated by Foodstuffs and were found to be unviable. The existing supermarket is surrounded by three road frontages (Waenga Drive, Murray Terrace and Elspeth Street). This means expansion options are limited. Foodstuffs preferred option is to purchase part of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve adjacent to New World.
The existing greenway was developed 38 years ago, and at some time in the future the concrete path, lighting, irrigation, and plants will need to be renewed.
Foodstuffs' proposal will result in the remaining part of the greenway being redeveloped at no cost to Council. The Greenway Development Landscape Proposal (previously approved by the Board) is attached as Appendix 3.
To summarise:
· The remaining adjacent local purpose reserve will be developed to ensure a safe, inviting and improved landscaped and amenity space (at Foodstuffs’ cost)
· Its function will not be lost. An open space pathway will continue to link Waenga Drive into the Cromwell Western Greenway network providing a safe and attractive route for the community; and
· As part of this upgrade, improved connectivity will be provided to the Cromwell Town Centre.
· The redevelopment extends the timeframe of when renewal works would be required. This represents a saving to ratepayers.
These associated improvements will ensure that the residual reserve is not adversely affected by the revocation of the reserve status from part of the Greenway Reserve.
Other community benefits
The community will benefit financially from the sale of the specified Part of Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve. As well as the benefit from an upgraded reserve, there will be a financial sum to reinvest in other reserve areas.
Proceeds received from the sale are to be used for the future development and enhancement of other reserve areas within the Cromwell Ward. This is consistent with sections 78-80 of the Act.
Council will hold proceeds from the sale of the specified Part of Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve in its Cromwell Reserves account to use when required for future development, purchase or enhancement of reserves and reserves assets within the Cromwell ward.
Furthermore, the longevity and viability of a key business within the Cromwell community will be maintained. Foodstuffs are a co-operative company, owned by local store operators, and the wholesale supplier to New World supermarkets, including Cromwell New World. Grocery provision is an essential service to meet food and household needs for the community. An improved retail offering strengthens the Cromwell community to shop and support local (with flow-on employment benefits).
Finally, the upgrade will provide significant investment in the town centre and the community. The estimated build cost is $7 million and construction time 12 months. Local contractors and sub-contractors will be used where possible.
Giving effect to the upgrade of the greenway adjacent to the supermarket
Should the reserve status be revoked, Foodstuffs will need to apply for subdivision consent to create a section for disposal. Foodstuffs will then develop the residual land (at their own cost) in accordance with the approved landscape plan for this area.
4. Options
Option 1 – (Recommended)
Proceed to revoke the Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve classification of the specified 609m² (subject to survey) from Lot 201 DP 359519, known as Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve, for disposal as recommended in this report.
Advantages:
· The community receives an upgraded greenway reserve.
· The community gains funding that can be used to redevelop other reserves within the ward.
· A business providing community benefit within Cromwell is able to expand to provide increased benefit.
Disadvantages:
· Reserve land can be an emotive matter, and revocation of its status could be viewed negatively by some in the community. However, fair consideration of community views is the reason for public notification and hearings processes being undertaken.
Option 2
Do not proceed to revoke the Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve classification of the specified 609m² (subject to survey) from Lot 201 DP 359519, known as Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve.
Advantages:
· Reserve land is not reduced by revocation.
Disadvantages:
· This would have legal implications, as the Community Board has already resolved to agree to sell the specified part of the reserve on terms which include proceeding with the public notification process for revocation of reserve and disposal.
5. Compliance
Local Government Act 2002 Purpose Provisions |
This decision promotes the social, economic, and environmental wellbeing of the community, in the present and for the future, by enabling a business providing community benefit to reconfigure its options for growth; as well as through renewal of the residual reserve.
|
Financial implications – Is this decision consistent with proposed activities and budgets in long term plan/annual plan? |
All costs of the revocation process will be borne by Foodstuffs.
Proceeds received from the future sale are to be used for the future development and enhancement of other reserves areas within the Cromwell Ward.
|
Decision consistent with other Council plans and policies? Such as the District Plan, Economic Development Strategy etc. |
Foodstuffs is responsible for all costs. Resource consent and written permission from the Council is required to undertake any subdivision and development of the specified Part of Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve. The proposed landscape plan for the residual reserve has already been approved by the Community Board. The revocation of the reserve status will not affect compliance with any conditions of existing resource consents or existing Council infrastructure (which can be considered and protected via easement as part of any future subdivision from the wider reserve).
The Proposal is consistent with the proposed Cromwell Masterplan and its strategic objectives including by revitalising the town centre and associated improved access (Objective 6) and enhancing the greenways of Cromwell (part of Objective 5, residential development and amenity).
|
Considerations as to sustainability, the environment and climate change impacts |
There will be a small loss of greenspace of 619m² which is not anticipated to have an impact on sustainability or climate change matters.
|
Risks Analysis |
The loss of 619m² from the local purpose reserve is not considered to materially affect the purpose for which the reserve is held, particularly as Foodstuffs' proposal will result in the remaining greenway being redeveloped.
A potential precedent for selling off reserve land may be set; however, this will be mitigated by all future applications or proposals being assessed on their own merits on a case-by-case basis.
|
Significance, Consultation and Engagement (internal and external) |
The public will have the opportunity to formally submit on the revocation proposal.

· The Central Otago District Council and the Cromwell Community Board are proposing to revoke the Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve classification of approximately 619m² of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve in Cromwell (the Land).
·
· The Land has been identified as necessary to provide for the expansion and upgrade of an existing supermarket which is surrounded by three road frontages (Waenga Drive, Murray Terrace and Elspeth Street) with the ability only to expand to the Land.

· It is intended to dispose of the Land by sale to adjoining landowner Foodstuffs South Island Properties Ltd. The proceeds from the sale will be used for the future development and enhancement of other reserve areas within the Cromwell Ward.
·
· A statement of proposal outlining the proposed revocation in more detail (including a map and landscape plan), and implications for neighbouring landowners and reserve users is available on Council’s website. Hard copies are also available [insert].
·
· You can make a submission on the proposed reclassification online at ww.codc.govt.nz/consultation or email it to submissions@codc.govt.nz.

Proposed revocation of part of Lot 201 DP 359519 (Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve) |
|
Public notice date: 25 June 2021
Statement of Proposal:
The Central Otago District Council and the Cromwell Community Board are proposing to revoke the Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve classification of approximately 619m² of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve, and dispose of it by sale to adjoining landowner Foodstuffs South Island Properties Ltd.
Schedule of land:
The land proposed to be revoked is part of Lot 201 DP 359519 in Cromwell, and is outlined in red on the plan below.
Why is the revocation of the land needed?
The revocation of the reserve status of the land is necessary to provide for the expansion and upgrade of an existing supermarket which is surrounded by three road frontages (Waenga Drive, Murray Terrace and Elspeth Street) with the ability only to expand to the land which is part of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve. The expansion and upgrade is necessary to ensure the existing supermarket is safe, attractive and viable. It will provide an improved and viable retail offering for the community and strengthen the Cromwell town centre.
How is the area used now?
The Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve is an open space system with pathways which links residences and the town centre. It provides a safe route while staying off the roads for members of the community running and walking.
How will the revocation affect users of the reserve?
The revocation will have little adverse effects on the users of the reserve. An open space pathway will continue to link Waenga Drive into the Cromwell Western Greenway network providing a safe and attractive route for the community. The remaining adjacent local purpose reserve will not have its reserve classification revoked and will be redeveloped to provide improved amenity and a safer, inviting and landscaped space (at Foodstuffs cost). Privacy and amenity concerns of potentially affected neighbours and reserve users will be mitigated through landscape design. A Landscape Plan approved by the Community Board for the reserve is attached.
The community will further benefit from proceeds received from the disposal and sale which will be used for the future development and enhancement of other reserves areas within the Cromwell Ward.
How will the expansion of retail activity affect the reserve?
The redevelopment of the existing supermarket will create a beautified area for the enjoyment of the community. Additional planting and landscaping is proposed, and better amenity and connectivity will be provided to the Cromwell Town Centre. Any expansion of retail activity on the land will still require resource consent under the Resource Management Act 199. Through this process the Council will consider any adverse effects of the proposed upgrade and expansion and how these can be avoided, remedied and managed.
What is the process and how long will the process take?
Section 24 of the Reserves Act 1977 provides the mechanism for revoking part of a classification of a reserve. The proposal is to revoke the Local Purpose (Amenity) Reserve classification of approximately 619m² of the Waenga Drive Greenway Reserve and dispose of it by sale to adjoining landowner Foodstuffs South Island Properties Ltd. This will enable the existing Cromwell New World to expand onto the site identified above.
The revocation process usually takes between 6 – 12 months.
What opportunities are there for involvement?
You can make a written submission by 5.00pm Monday 26 July 2021 on the proposed revocation of part of a reserve. Your submission may address any aspect of the proposal. Your submission will be considered before proceeding with the revocation process as set out in the Reserves Act 1977.
You may also have the opportunity to attend a hearing of submissions if such a hearing is held.
Submissions can be made online via Council’s website www.codc.govt.nz/consultation or by completing the attached form. Your form can be dropped into the Council office at 1 Dunorling Street, Alexandra, or posted to:

21.5.7 Roundabout Construction - Intersection State Highway 8B and Barry Avenue
Doc ID: 535287
1. Purpose
To inform the Board of the Crown’s intention to acquire Council land for the purpose of constructing of a roundabout at the intersection of State Highways 8B and Barry Avenue.
That the report be received.
|
2. Discussion
Background
State Highway 8B is located on the northern edge of the Cromwell township. It is a short 2.6-kilometre highway which links State Highway 6 with State Highway 8.
State Highways 6 and 8B are major New Zealand state highways.
State Highway 6 extends from the north eastern corner of the South Island across the top of the island, then down the length of the island. It is also the main road from Cromwell to Wanaka and Cromwell to Queenstown.
State Highway 8 forms an anticlockwise loop through the southern scenic regions of the Mackenzie Basin and Central Otago.
An overview of each of these State Highways is shown below in figures 1, 2, and 3.
Figure 1 – Overview of State Highway 8B
Figure 2 – Overview of State Highway 6 Figure 3 – Overview of State Highway 8
The Cromwell township can be accessed from three roads adjoining State Highway 8B. They are Alpha Street, Sargood Road, and Barry Avenue.
The intersection of State Highway 8B and Barry Avenue is shown below in figure 4.
Figure 4 – Intersection of State Highway 8B and Barry Avenue
The land to the north of the intersection of State Highway 8B and Barry Avenue is Section 3 Survey Office Plan (SO) 461514 (Section 3). Section 3 has an area of 25.4579 hectares. Historically Section 3 has contained a vineyard development with a cellar door tasting room known as the Wooing Tree.
In December 2019 the owners of Section 3 applied to have the land rezoned. The purpose of the rezoning was to allow the land to be developed as large-scale residential subdivision. The application to rezone the land was successful with an amendment being made to Council’s Operational District Plan. The amendment is known as Plan Change 12.
Plan Change 12 outlines access requirements for the development on Section 3. Stage one will be accessed from Shortcut Road via recently constructed Vintage Street. Access to subsequent stages will be gained via a new roundabout at the intersection of State Highway 8B and Barry Avenue.
A preliminary plan of the proposed roundabout, which will be constructed by Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency as manager of the national highways network, is shown below in figure 5.
Figure 5 – Preliminary Plan: Wooing Tree Roundabout
Proposed Roundabout
As the radius of the proposed roundabout is larger than the existing legal road width, Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency will acquire three parcels of land from the adjacent landowners. The three parcels of land to be taken are labelled A, B, and C in figure 5.
Parcel A has an area of approximately 1740 square metres. It will be taken from Section 126 Block III Cromwell Survey District (Section 126). Parcel B has an area of approximately 1220 square metres. It will be taken from Section 122 Block III Cromwell Survey District (Section 122). Section 122 is also owned by Council.
Parcel C has an area of approximately 3460 square metres. It will be taken from Section 3 which is owned by the developers of the Wooing Tree residential subdivision.
Sections 122 and 126 are Council land. Section 126 It is widely known, and referred to, as the ‘Big Fruit’ Reserve. However, both Sections are fee simple (freehold) land, not reserve.
All three parcels of land will be acquired by Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency, as agents of the Crown, in accordance with the Public Works Act 1981. Formal notice of the Crown’s intention to acquire the land is expected to be received shortly.
A full-size copy of the preliminary plan showing the land to be taken is attached as Appendix 1.
Public Works Act 1981
The Public Works Act 1981 (the Act) outlines the process whereby the Crown may acquire land for public works. The Act also outlines:
- how the land will be valued and compensation assessed;
- what costs will be paid to the landowner;
- the rights of the landowner; and,
- the legal process for having the land declared legal road.
When land is acquired under the Public Works Act 1981 for a public purpose it is referred to as a ‘taking’.
Compensation and Costs
The land to be taken will be valued on a ‘before and after’ basis in accordance with the provisions of the Public Works Act 1981. This means the land will be valued in its current state and again at the reduced area. Compensation is assessed and paid as the difference between the two values.
An independent valuer will undertake the valuer on behalf of both parties. As the land to be taken is reserve, compensation will be paid into the Cromwell Reserves Contribution Account.
Once the land is valued, it will be resurveyed with new titles then issued. The land taken for road will then be gazetted as legal road and will become State Highway.
All costs associated with the acquisition including the valuation, payment of compensation, survey, gazettal, and legal fees are payable by Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency.
Effect on the Land and Mitigation
In general terms the taking will have a limited effect on the land. Simply put, the northern boundaries of the two reserve parcels will move inward slightly.
While Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency will fund the initial landscaping and modifications to the irrigation system in Section 126, it is expected that ongoing maintenance of any plantings inside the roundabout will become a function of Council’s Parks and Reserves contractors on completion of the project.
The final landscaping plan and the transfer of responsibilities will be discussed once the plan of the roundabout is finalised.
Section 122 does not contain any plantings or irrigation that will be affected by the taking.
Timeline for Works
Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency plan to take possession of the land in September 2021. The works are expected to take approximately four to six months and to be completed in mid-2022. The project has an estimated value of $7 million.

Income for period ending 31 March 2021:
Operating income reflects a favourable variance to the budget of $2.439M. This is primarily due to land sales.
· Internal interest revenue has an unfavourable variance of ($179k). This is predominately due to low market interest rates.
· Land sale proceeds has a favourable variance of $2.22M. This is due to the settlement of land sold on Cemetery Road. Gair Avenue subdivision sales have been reflected in the revised budget, as part of forecasting in February.
· User fees and other has a favourable variance of $44k. A breakdown of this is provided in the table below. Rentals and hires income is higher than budget. Rental income is being received from land purchased on Murray Terrace, this income was not included in the annual plan or revised budgets.
· Reserve contributions has a favourable variance of $89k. These are difficult to gauge when setting budgets and are dependent on developers’ timeframe.
· External interest and dividends have a favourable variance of $258k. The late settlement on land sold on Cemetery Road activated the penalty clause and penalty interest has been received at the time of settlement.

Expenditure for period ending 31 March 2021:
Expenditure has an unfavourable variance of ($1.79M). These variances are detailed below:
· Cost of sale of land has an unfavourable variance of ($1.90M). This is predominately due to recognising the cost of land from the sale at Cemetery Road and is offset by the land sales revenue.
· Contracts are favourable to budget by $17k. This is due to the timing of maintenance being carried out.
· Internal interest expense has a favourable variance of $66k. Low market interest rates are driving this variance. This is also reflected above with reduced interest revenue.
· Staff costs have a favourable variance of $27k. This is due to the timing of staff recruitment and associated costs.
Capital Expenditure:
Capital expenditure for the period ending 31 March 2021 has a year-to-date unfavourable variance of ($1.1M). The actual CAPEX spend ended with 68% of the total revised budget being spent.
Parks and Reserves:
· Cromwell cemetery has a favourable variance of $13k. This is due to the timing of beams construction, landscaping and planting work planned for the cemetery. Contracts have been awarded in April 2021, with completion expected towards the end of the financial year.
Property:
· This includes the purchase of Murray Terrace land and the recognition of the land swap approved by the Cromwell Ward in December 2020, which Council authorised as per resolution 20.4.3 in July 2020. The revised budget did not include the non-cash property exchange.
· Development costs have a favourable variance of $130k. Development costs are now being monitored through the balance sheet until land sales have been made. The development costs budget links to the Stage 1 Cemetery Road subdivision.

STATUS
April – May 2021 – Central Lakes Equestrian Club have not accepted the terms and conditions of the new Licence to Occupy as they disagree with the condition to mow the runway in lieu of rent. However, on further investigation it has also been identified that the Cromwell Community Board do not have delegation to issue the Licence to Occupy on the Cromwell Aerodrome under the Airport Authorities Act 1966. Therefore a report will go to Council to consider the Board’s recommendation.
February 2021 – Workshop with the Board to be held 8 March 2021.
December 2020 – The club made changes to the Licence to Occupy which has been returned to them with a letter advising that they cannot amend this document. They have been asked to write in indicating the issues they have with the licence.

September 2020 – A valuation to let land as grazing land has been received, to ascertain the best way of moving forwards.
