5                 Reports for Decisions

21.6.2         Vallance Cottage - Statement of Intent and Community Orchard Agreement

Doc ID:      541859

 

1.       Purpose of Report

 

To consider endorsement of a Statement of Intent of the Vallance Cottage working group and renewal of its Community Orchard Agreement.

 

Recommendations

That the Vincent Community Board

A.      Receives the report and accepts the level of significance.

B.      Approves the Statement of Intent of the Vallance Cottage working group.

C.      Approves the Vallance Cottage working group’s Community Orchard Agreement.

 

2.       Background

 

Vallance Cottage in situated on Town Belt Reserve adjacent to Samson Street, Alexandra. The cottage was built in 1896 and gifted to the community by the Vallance family in the mid-1990s. It is vested in the Central Otago District Council in Trust and is listed in the District Plan as a heritage building.

 

 

The cottage was saved from demolition in 1996 by a community restoration group who raised funds for its restoration. The cottage was fitted out with period furniture and was opened to the public during summer months as an example of what life was like in early 19th century.

 

The cottage was closed in 2009 as the kitchen floor was rotten and not safe. Funds were raised to replace the rotten timber floor in the kitchen and repair and paint other rotten timber on the exterior. Although the repair work was completed, the cottage remained closed.

 

Volunteers created the Vallance Cottage working group (the working group) who are exploring ways to utilise the cottage in the future and to make it more sustainable. The working group consists of representatives from Central Stories Museum, Central Otago District Council, members of the Vallance family, and volunteers.

 

A conservation plan funded by a Lotteries Grant was completed in July 2016. The Vallance Cottage Conservation Plan 2016 confirmed the significance of the cottage to Alexandra and the Central Otago District, and provided conservation policies for the cottage. These are included below:

 

Significance of Vallance Cottage to Alexandra and the Central Otago district

 

“Once a common feature of the Central Otago landscape, earth buildings (mud brick, rammed earth or cob) are becoming a rarity amongst the surviving, historic vernacular buildings of this distinctive and heritage-rich region. Vallance Cottage, Alexandra is one such example that has managed to survive into the present, against many odds, to provide the area with an authentic and historically significant site that encapsulates the early pioneering days of Central Otago and stands to tell the story of an equally pioneering family.”

 

“Many colourful and vivid memories have been collected by Vallance family members over the years, creating a family archive of stories and photographs that are integral to the cottage’s history and interest. Through the conservation plan prepared for the cottage, it has been clearly identified that Vallance Cottage is a site of high heritage significance due to a number of important factors and values.”

 

 

Conservation policies

 

D2.1           Future repair for the cottage should include alterations and works aimed at improving evaporation of moisture from the ground walls and floors.

 

D2.2                     Regular future maintenance is considered essential for the well-being of the                             cottage.

 

D2.3           The family/cottage archive is of high significance and should be maintained in the                    future.

 

D2.4           The cottage needs to have a use that will provide it with an income to support its   future maintenance and care. Regrettably, its present use as a museum and         occasional site for events is unlikely to be sustainable even if there is a drive to open it more often and encourage more visitors. Some form of commercial use will almost certainly be necessary.

 

D2.5           Future use of the cottage may require development of the site.

 

D2.6           The cottage requires wider appreciation and by the community and visitors alike.

                   *        Installation of Interpretation panels.

                   *        Link cottage with nearby cycle trail and river walk.

*        Parts of this conservation plan could be developed into a story for the cottage.

E.      APPROVED funding up to $42,300 from the Alexandra Reserves                  Contribution Account for an exterior power connection and the installation of a unisex accessible bathroom next to the cottage.

 

 

3.       Discussion

 

Statement of Intent

While the working group has made great strides towards achieving many of the conservation plan policies, securing a sustainable future use for the cottage (policy 2.4 above) remains a work in progress.

 

Calls for expressions of interest for a business to operate on a ground lease adjacent to the cottage have been ongoing since 2017 (as per resolution 17.1.18 above). To date only one potential interested party has come forward. This party decided not to take their interest any further than an initial showing and discussion.

 

The working group currently run two open days a year, over Waitangi and Blossom Festival weekends. Calls for more volunteers to enable the cottage to be open more frequently in summer were unsuccessful.

 

This has led the group to develop a Statement of Intent document. See Appendix 1. This is a strategic document that provides the working group with action points towards achieving a more sustainable future for the cottage.

 

This future vision is for the cottage to be open more often without the burden on volunteers. This is to be achieved using technology to allow remote access locks and Perspex over the doorways to allow viewing of a static display. The static display and how the story of Vallance Cottage is told will be developed with the assistance of the Otago Museum.

 

It is the working group’s aim to keep the costs of implementing the Statement of Intent’s action points within the current Council budgets for the cottage. Any excess above this would be externally funded.

 

 

Community Orchard Agreement

The deed of agreement for the community orchard development on the Vallance Cottage Reserve is due for renewal on 1 December 2021.

 

The site for the orchard is now full after planting for two seasons by the Rotary Trees for Babies programme.

 

It is proposed the agreement shifts to one which is ongoing with one months’ notice of termination by either party.  See Appendix 2 for a copy of the proposed orchard agreement.

 

This agreement has the support of the Parks and Recreation Manager.

 

4.       Options

 

Option 1 – (Recommended)

 

Approve the working group’s Statement of Intent and the Community Orchard Agreement as outlined in this report.

 

Advantages:

 

·        Gives direction to the working group towards a more sustainable future use of the cottage.

·        Gives direction to the working group regarding the future of the community orchard.

·        Costs of this project will be within the current Council budgets for the cottage. Any excess above this would be externally funded.

 

Disadvantages:

 

·        None.

 

Option 2

 

Not approve the Statement of Intent and Community Orchard Agreement.

Advantages:

 

·        None.

 

Disadvantages:

 

·        Does not give direction to the working group towards a more sustainable future use of the cottage.

·        The cottage’s future remains in doubt as its volunteer base may dwindle.

·        Access to the cottage will remain at twice a year or by request.

·        Does not maximise the use of the community’s investment in this historic cottage.

·        Does not give direction to the working group regarding the future of the community orchard.

 

 

5.       Compliance

 

Local Government Act 2002 Purpose Provisions

This decision promotes the social, cultural, and economic  well-being of communities, in the present and for the future by approving the Statement of Intent and Community Orchard Agreement, which give the working group a blueprint towards a more sustainable future of the Vallance Cottage and the community orchard.

 

Financial implications – Is this decision consistent with proposed activities and budgets in long term plan/annual plan?

 

 

Yes, funding of this project is proposed to be within the current Council budgets for the cottage. Any excess above this would be externally funded.

 

Decision consistent with other Council plans and policies? Such as the District Plan, Economic Development Strategy etc.

 

 

Yes, the proposed documents are consistent with Council’s plans and policies.

 

Considerations as to sustainability, the environment and climate change impacts

 

This decision does not impact on the sustainability, environment and climate change of the district.

 

 

Risks Analysis

 

The Board’s endorsement of both proposed documents within this report gives the Working Group a direction towards a sustainable future of the cottage and established community orchard.

 

Without such endorsement, the risk to the Board is that community investment in this historic cottage is not fully maximised and the ongoing demand on the volunteer community remains.

Significance, Consultation and Engagement (internal and external)

 

None of the thresholds/criteria in Significance and Engagement Policy have been met or exceeded by the proposed documents and so the proposal is not considered significant.

 

 

6.       Next Steps

 

·    The Community Board’s decision be communicated to the working group members.   

·    Execution of the Community Orchard Agreement.

·    The working group continues to work on the action points of the Statement of Intent.

·    When Statement of Intent milestones are reached these will be communicated to the Community Board via the In the Loop newsletter.

21.6.4         Alexandra United Football Club Application to Site a Container

Doc ID:      542198

 

1.       Purpose of Report

 

To consider a request from the Alexandra United Football Club to temporarily site a 6-metre storage container at Molyneux Park.

 

Recommendations

That the Vincent Community Board

A.      Receives the report and accepts the level of significance.

B.      Agrees to grant a lease to the Alexandra United Football Club for the purpose of temporarily locating a 6-metre container on Lot 2 Deposit Plan 21404, being part of Molyneux Park Recreation Reserve, for a term of two years a $1.00 per annum (if demanded), subject to:

·        The provisions of section 54 of the Reserves Act

·        The provisions of Council’s Community Leasing and Licensing Policy

·        The container being located immediately adjacent to Central Otago Netball Club Incorporated’s existing container

·        The container being painted to the satisfaction of the Parks and Recreation Manager

·        The Minister of Conservation’s consent

C.      Authorises the Chief Executive to do everything necessary to give effect to the resolution.

 

 

2.       Background

 

The Alexandra United Football Club (the Club) currently store their operational equipment in an area under the netball pavilion. This area no longer has sufficient space to contain the Club’s equipment.

 

The Football Club propose that a 6-metre container would be adequate to meet their storage needs. They suggest that it could be located adjacent to the container owned by the Central Otago Netball Club Incorporated (the Netball Club). The Netball Club’s container is situated to the west of the netball courts.

 

The Football Club’s request is outlined in more detail in Appendix 1. A plan indicating the preferred site is shown in Appendix 2.

 

 

3.       Discussion

 

The Molyneux Park Reserve Management Plan 2021 (RMP) provides for buildings and structures on the park, provided they are appropriately located and do not detract from the amenity of the park. The relevant parts of the RMP are contained in Appendix 3.

 

The RMP encourages multiple use of buildings to avoid unnecessary duplication. Discussions have been held between the Club and the Netball Club over the possibility of sharing the existing netball container. A sharing arrangement has not been able to be accommodated.

 

Containers are functional and robust. The Club have indicated that they would paint the container to blend in with the surroundings. Their container would be sited next the existing Netball Club container.

 

The Club’s request for the siting of the container is of a temporary nature, until they can secure more permanent storage options. To comply with the Reserves Act 1977, Council would need to issue a lease for the siting of the container. It is proposed that the lease would be issued for two years. During the lease’s term, the Club would seek more permanent storage arrangements. Before any renewal was contemplated, Council and the Club would undertake a review as to whether the container was still required.

 

 

4.       Options

 

Option 1 – (Recommended)

 

Agrees to grant a lease to the Alexandra United Football Club for the purpose of temporarily locating a 6-metre container on Lot 2 Deposit Plan 21404 being Molyneux Park Recreation Reserve, for a term of two years a $1.00 per annum (if demanded), subject to:

·        The provisions of section 54 of the Reserves Act

·        The provisions of Council’s Community Leasing and Licensing Policy

·        The container being located immediately adjacent to the Central Otago Netball Club Incorporated’s existing container

·        The container being painted to the satisfaction of the Parks and Recreation Manager

·        The Minister of Conservation’s consent

 

Advantages:

 

·        The Club’s storage issues would be solved in the short term, allowing them time to explore a permanent storage option.

·        The container would have a lease for two years. Prior to the end of the two-year lease term, Council and the Club would undertake a review to determine if the container was still required.

·        There is no cost to Council.

 

Disadvantages:

 

·        Siting a container on Molyneux Park may have a negative impact on the visual amenity of the park.

 

Option 2

 

That the Board does not authorise the Alexandra United Football Club to temporarily locate a 6-metre container at Molyneux Park.

 

Advantages:

 

·        There would be no additional structures sited on the reserve.

·        There would be no decline in visual amenity.

 

Disadvantages:

 

·        The Club will still have issues with inadequate storage for their equipment.

 

 

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 $1500.00 per year for rental of the grounds. It is proposed that the lease 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 Molyneux Park Reserve Management Plan 2021, and any lease would be consistent with Council’s Community Leasing and Licensing Policy.

 

Considerations as to sustainability, the environment and climate change impacts

There are no sustainability, environmental or climate change impacts related to this decision.

 

Risks Analysis

There are no risks identified with this decision.

 

Significance, Consultation and Engagement (internal and external)

 

No consultation is required.

 

 

 

6.       Next Steps

 

·    A report will be prepared for Council to consider authorising the lease under its delegated authority on behalf of the Minister of Conservation.

·    The Club will be kept informed throughout the process.

Buildings and Other Structures

 

Objectives

1       To ensure that buildings and other structures do not dominate Molyneux Park and are located, designed and maintained so that they do not detract from the amenity of the park and facilitate public recreational use and enjoyment.

2       To support the development or redevelopment of buildings and structures on the park where the need for these has been fully assessed and it is demonstrated that recreation and community outcomes are better enabled.

3       To encourage sharing of existing facilities to prevent unnecessary duplication or expansion of facilities.

4       To ensure that buildings and structures have necessary approvals.

5       To encourage and allow for networks of paths for pedestrians and/or cyclists.

·  they meet a specific proven need

·  Neither the location of the building, nor associated car-parking, unduly restrict the area useable for outdoor recreation or utilisation of the park.

·  They do not obstruct the entrances to the park, either physically or visually, including access for emergency vehicles.

·  They do not detract from the appearance or open nature of the park, especially as seen from surrounding roads.

3               All new buildings and structures shall be of a size and design that:

·  Is such that they provide no more than a service ancillary to the use of the area for sport.

·  Is to acceptable architectural standards.

·  Is in scale with, and suited to, the character of the park.

·  If possible, they shall be sited so that they can be extended to provide such further facilities as may be required later.

4               When assessing proposals for buildings and structures, Council’s assessment and discretion will include the following:

·     Location and size of building or structure

·     Proposed lighting

·     Materials and finishes

·     Servicing requirements

·     Associated provision for transport including carparking

21.6.5         Road Renaming Report - Portion of Watson Road

Doc ID:      530115

 

1.       Purpose of Report

 

To consider a request to rename a portion of Watson Road, Waikerikeri.

 

Recommendations

That the Vincent Community Board

A.      Receives the report and accepts the level of significance.

B.      Recommends to Council that a portion of Watson Road be renamed Pīhoihoi Road.

 

 

2.       Background

 

Watson Road is divided into two sections by Nelsen Ridge Road. This division could cause confusion for emergency services if they are required to locate a property in the event of an emergency. Renaming the right-hand side of Watson Road at the T intersection of Watson Road and Nelsen Ridge Road would avoid this situation.

 

Staff consulted with affected property owners explaining the situation and invited them to provide name suggestions for the portion of Watson Road to be renamed. Only one of the property owners provided a name. Aukaha were consulted on a selection of Māori names that were submitted by the property owner. 

 

To streamline future consultation for Māori names a pre-approved list of approximately 200 Māori road names specific to Central Otago has now been provided by Aukaha (attached for reference as appendix 3).

 

 

3.       Discussion

 

Renaming a section of Watson Road will mean six property owners will receive new rapid numbers. New rapid numbers are necessary as the datum point or point where the road begins will change. There has been no negative response from the property owners regarding this.

 

The preferred name is Pīhoihoi Road.  Pīhoihoi is the Māori name for the New Zealand Pipit.  The Pipit is a prominent bird seen in the Waikerikeri area.

 

Two alternative names provided for consideration are Kaireka, after the Skylark, also seen in the area and Kārearea, after the native falcon that is prevalent up against the Dunstan Range and a Central Otago symbol.

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.       Options

 

Option 1 – (Recommended)

 

Recommend to Council to rename the section of Watson Road to the right of the T intersection of Nelsen Ridge Road highlighted in pink on the attached map (appendix 1) to Pīhoihoi Road.

 

Advantages:

 

·        Emergency services can locate an address quickly and easily in the event of a call out.

·        Suggested name is the preferred choice of the property owner who made a submission on the road name.

·        Suggested road name meets council policy and has been endorsed by Aukaha.

 

Disadvantages:

 

·        The six rapid numbers currently issued on Watson Road will need to be renewed. 

·        Two of the property owners/residents will have a change of road name and rapid number.

·        The cost of approximately $100 to replace the rapid number plates will be met by Council roading budgets.

 

Option 2

 

Select either Kaireka Road or Kārearea Road for the section of road to be renamed. 

 

Advantages:

 

·        Emergency services can locate an address quickly and easily in the event of a call out.

·        Suggested names are the second or third choice of the property owner who made a submission on the road name.

·        Suggested names meet council policy and have been endorsed by Aukaha.

 

Disadvantages:

 

·        The six rapid numbers currently issued on Watson Road will need to be updated.

21.6.6         Road naming report for approval - off Golden Road

Doc ID:      532456

 

1.       Purpose of Report

 

To consider a request to name a private right of way Sim Lane.

 

Recommendations

That the Vincent Community Board

A.      Receives the report and accepts the level of significance.

B.      Agrees that the private right of way off Golden Road be named Sim Lane.

 

2.       Background

 

One private right of way is to be named in a new sub-division off Golden Road, Springvale.

 

 

3.       Discussion

 

The plan attached (Appendix 1) shows the right of way to be named in red. The developer, Tony Sim, would like to name the right of way after his father Ivan Sim, aged 91 and still living in Alexandra.  Mr Ivan Sim has been heavily involved in the farming community and real estate in both Central Otago and Southland.  According to Tony Sim, Ivan was instrumental in the land purchase for the New World Supermarket in Alexandra.

 

Two other names have been provided by the developer.  Hidden Stream Lane which relates to the Springvale aquifer.  This name does not meet Council Policy as it is two words.  The third choice is Dunstan Lane referencing the local area.  Unfortunately, as Dunstan Road is already a named road, this name does not meet Council Policy either.

 

 

4.       Options

 

Option 1 – (Recommended)

 

Name the private right of way Sim Lane.

 

Advantages:

 

·        Name is the first choice of the developer.

·        Name meets Council policy.

 

Disadvantages:

 

·        None.

 

 

 

Option 2

 

Select a name from the Vincent Community Board’s approved name list.

 

Advantages:

 

·        Name meets Council Policy.

 

Disadvantages:

 

·        Name would not be any of the preferred choices of the developer.

 

 

5.       Compliance
