PHOTO: FILE Council commits to funding road works Kaikoura’s Long Term Plan is on trackto be signed off at the end of the month. Councillorsmet last weektoconsider 273 matters raised in submissions from 71 people, whichwere received during consultation on the 2021/31Long Term Plan (LTP), with 21 people speaking on theirsubmissions. The council was due to meet again yesterday to finalise the draft LTP, which will be sent to Audit New Zealand before beingadopted on July 28. Five keyproposals were consulted on as partofthe LTP,including an increasedinvestmentinroadsand footpaths, areview of the outdated District Plan, afortnightlyurban rubbish collection and tourism/business support for Destination Kaikoura. The majority of the submissions agreed with the proposals, ranging from 64 percent support for tourism/business support through to 73% supportfor urbanrubbishcollection. ‘‘It’s great to see that allofthe proposed options werewell supported. It showsweare on tracktodeliverchanges and improvementsinline withwhat the majority of the community want,’’ Mayor CraigMacklesays. The council did not receive the full amount requestedfromWaka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency (NZTA) to help fund the roading programme, resulting in ashortfallof$2,293,000 over the threeyearperiod from 2021 to 2023. Rather than postponingthe work, the council has resolved to reduce the operatingprogramme budget to 90%, and to fund the shortfall of NZTA subsidy for operations through the roadingrate and continue with the capitalprogramme as originally proposed with the capital works subsidy shortfall loanfundedover 15 years. ‘‘Weall use roads, thisishow we get around the district and roading is one of the main activities of the council, contributing significantly to total annual costs,’’MrMacklesays. ‘‘Wehave decided we needtodothe worknow, as any delays to the roading programme could result in much greater costs in the future.’’ The footpath subsidy from NZTAwas alsoconsiderably less than expected. ‘‘Wehave heard from the community overanumber of years about the state of our footpaths,’’ Mr Macklesays. ‘‘Whilewedonot have the full subsidy thatweexpected, the councilagreesthat we need to up our gameand continue withthe original proposal to maintain and upgrade our footpaths.’’ Thishas resulted in an overall average rateincrease of 5.9% for the 2021/2022 financial year and a10year average increaseof3.36%. Borrowing is forecast to reachnomore than$11.05million at its peakinthe 2026 financial year.
