www.hurunui.govt.nz Service Relevant Community Outcomes Relevant Issues & Constraints Who benefits, and over what period Future Funding & Sustainability Community Services and Facilities - Reserves The Council’s funding of Services and Facilities - Reserves contributes to the Hurunui district being: A desirable and safe place to live: • We have attractive well designed townships • Communities have access to adequate health and emergency services and systems and resources are available to meet civil defence emergencies • Risks to public health are identified and appropriately managed A place where our traditional rural values and heritage make Hurunui unique: - People have a range of opportunities to participate in leisure and culture activities - Our historic and cultural heritage is protected for future generations Council reserves are funded differently depending upon whether they are classified as District or Amenity (i.e. local) reserves. Council policy is that camping grounds should pay their own way. There are small administrative costs associated with the separate funding of reserves (e.g. costs for running Reserves Committees in each area), but these are outweighed by the benefits in increased transparency and accountability in regard to the allocation of funds for reserves and the statutory requirement that any revenue from reserves be spent only on reserves. District Reserves - 100% benefit to the District in that people from all over the District use the reserve, and the reserve attracts visitors to the District. Amenity Reserves - 100% benefit to residents in the local rating area. Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa - 100% benefit to users. Camping Grounds - 100% benefit to users. The benefits from capital expenditure accrue over the life of the investment and the benefits from operational expenditure accrue at the time of expenditure. Operational; Costs: • Amenity Reserves - 100% local amenity rates on the ward or community rating area in which the reserve is located. • District Reserves - 100% District Rate. • Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools - 100% user charge. • Camping Grounds - 100% user charge with any shortfall met by a local amenity rate in the ward or community rating area.ita Capital Costs: • District Reserves - Capital expenditure for District Reserves is funded 100% by the District Rate and/or the Hanmer Springs Thermal Reserve surpluses. • Amenity Reserves - Capital expenditure for Amenity Reserves is funded 100% by the local amenity rate on the ward or community rating area within which the reserve in question is located. • If any of the capital expenditure caters for future growth, then that portion of the expenditure that relates to growth may be funded from future lots or units of demand via development contributions. If long term funding is required, it can be catered for under the Council’s Internal Financing Policy. The monies needed to meet the loan costs under the Internal Financing Policy should be treated as operational expenditure. • Contestable Funding - Council may also provide an amount of funds from the surpluses from the Hanmer Springs Thermal Reserve to each Ward or Rating area that may be used for meeting development costs on amenity reserves. Sustainability: • There are slight negative effects on the current and future economic wellbeing of the communities affected, but this will be offset by proportional gains in current and future social, environmental and cultural wellbeing. There will also be some gain in economic wellbeing, to the extent that tourists are attracted to the District’s reserves. 230
Hurunui Community Long Term Plan 2012 - 2022 Service Relevant Community Outcomes Relevant Issues & Constraints Who benefits, and over what period Future Funding & Sustainability Community Services and Facilities – Township Maintenance The Council’s funding of Township Maintenance contributes to the Hurunui district being: A desirable and safe place to live: • We have attractive well designed townships • Communities have access to adequate health and emergency services and systems and resources are available to meet civil defence emergencies • Risks to public health are identified and appropriately managed A place where our traditional rural values and heritage make Hurunui unique: - People have a range of opportunities to participate in leisure and culture activities - Our historic and cultural heritage is protected for future generations Those living closest to a facility benefit more than those living further away, hence there is a benefit in terms of transparency and accountability from funding this service distinctly from other activities, and however, it is not practical in cost-benefit terms to implement a differential rating scheme for this service within each ward or community rating area. There is no significant cost associated with funding this service separately. There is an element of benefit to the wider District (e.g. street refuse bins improve the cleanliness and image of the District by minimizing littering), but the predominant benefit is to property owners in the ward or community rating area in question. The benefits from capital expenditure accrue over the life of the investment and the benefits from operational expenditure accrue at the time of expenditure. Operational and Capital Costs: • Township maintaneance100% local amenity rate on ward or community rating area. Sustainability: • Local communities are very involved in the decision making around what township maintenance is done and to what standard and are prepared to pay the cost. This is viewed as vital to the four wellbeings (social, economic, cultural and environmental) of our communities. 231
