REGULATORY COMMITTEE - Hutt City ...
NOTE 1:

Council makes decisions to notify District Plan Changes and Variations and call for submissions, on
the recommendation of the Regulatory Committee.

District Plan Hearings Subcommittee members are appointed by the Chair, in conjunction with the
Chief Executive, and comprise elected members and/or independent commissioners. All District
Plan Hearings Subcommittee members must be certified under the Making Good Decisions
programme.

District Plan Hearings Subcommittee makes recommendations to the Regulatory Committee for
recommendation to Council on proposed District Plan provisions and matters raised in
submissions.

Council makes its decision on the provisions and matters raised in submissions. The Council
decision may be appealed to the Environment Court.

Council gives final approval to make District Plan changes operative, in accordance with clause 17
of Schedule 1 of the Resource Management Act 1991.

NOTE 2:

The Ministry for the Environment advocates that Councils offer specialist RMA training in areas of
law which are difficult to grasp or where mistakes are commonly made. This is to complement the
Good Decision Making RMA training that they run (which is an overview and basic summary of
decision making, rather than an in-depth training in specific areas of the RMA). Therefore in order to
facilitate this, the RMA training run for councillors that wish to be hearings commissioners is
mandatory.

Reasons for the importance of the training:
1. Hearings commissioners are kept abreast of developments in the legislation.

2. Legal and technical errors that have been made previously are avoided (many of which have
    resulted in Environment Court action which is costly, time consuming and often creates
    unrealistic expectations for the community).

3. The reputation of Council as good and fair decision makers or judges (rather than legislators) is
    upheld.

Report no: RC2020/2/56

 Proposed New Street Names: Subdivision of
         1041A High Street, Avalon
Purpose of Report

1.   To seek approval for appropriate street names for one new Public Road and
     one new Private Road in the new Subdivision at 1041A High Street, Avalon.

Recommendations
That the Committee:
(i) approves a new street name for the new Public Road 1 attached as Appendix
    1 to the report, as suggested below:
     a)   “van Baarle” suggested road type “Place”; or
     b)   an alternate name from the Reserved Street Name list, attached as
          Appendix 2 to the report; or
     c)   an appropriate name tabled during the meeting;
(ii) approves a new street name for the new Private Road 2 attached as
     Appendix 1 to the report, as suggested below:

     a)   “Willem” suggested road type “Lane/Way”; or
     b)   “Rotterdam” suggested road type “Lane/Way”; or
     c)   “Tulip” suggested road type “Lane/Way”; or
     d) an alternate name from the Reserved Street Name list, attached as
        Appendix 2 to the report; or

(iii) approves the appropriate road type (as permitted by the New Zealand
     Standard As/NZS 4819:2011) as shown attached as Appendix 3 to the report.
These recommendations are made so the development may proceed to
completion as a variety of utility connections and other administrative bodies
require individual street addresses in order for the necessary connections to be

Street, Avalon
11                              10 March 2020
provided.

Background

2.   The development of 1041A High Street, Avalon will create one new public
     road, one new private road and 32 residential properties; 24 gaining access
     off the new Public Road and eight gaining access off the new Private Road.
     The roads require new street names.

3.   The responsibility for naming new private roads within Lower Hutt lies with
     the Community Boards or, in this case, with the Regulatory Committee for
     areas of the city not represented by Community Boards.

4.   The subdivision cannot proceed to completion without a legal street address.

Discussion
5. The developer has requested that Council consider the following names.
    These have been checked with Land Information New Zealand received the
    comments as shown in italics. All submitted names present strong
    connections to the developer’s family and the Dutch community as a whole.

6.   For Public Road (1):

     a)   “van Baarle” – After the developer’s father who migrated to New
          Zealand in the 1950’s. van Baarle is Dutch and represents a significant
          group of immigrants who settled in Lower Hutt and it is a reminder of
          the influence and origins of the immigrants who are part of Lower
          Hutt’s history.
          Acceptable to use.

7.   For Private Road (2):

     a)   “Willem” – Developer’s father’s, grandfather’s, great grandfather’s etc.
          first name as well as the name of the current king of Holland.
          Acceptable to use.
          NOTE: there is William Street, Petone (approx. 6kms) similarities and
          proximity could cause confusion.

     b)   “Christina” - Developer’s mother’s, grandmother’s etc. first name.
          Not acceptable to use.
          NOTE: road name duplication – there is already Christina Grove, Normandale
          (approx. 5kms).

     c)   “Rotterdam” – The City in Netherlands where the developer’s parents
          Willem and Christina were born and migrated from.
          Acceptable to use.

     d)   “Tulip” – Suggested by the developer out of the Reserved Street Name
          List attached as Appendix 2, as Tulips are connected to the Netherlands
          and is in keeping with the theme of names suggested.
          Pre-approved by LINZ.

Street, Avalon
12                              10 March 2020
8.   The background of the suggested names “van Baarle” and “Willem” is
     attached to this report as Appendix 4.

9.   Officers have requested the developer for additional background
     information on the other suggested names.

10. When an individual’s first name and/or surname is to be used as a street
    name the person must be deceased and the name is typically not used unless
    a family member can be contacted to confirm they are happy with its use.

Options
11. The suggested name for the Public Road (1) meets the requirements of the
    New Zealand Standard, is approved by Land Information New Zealand, and
    can be considered for adoption.
     “van Baarle”.
12. The Road Type recommended is:
     Place.
13. Out of the four suggested names for the Private Road (2), three meet the
    requirements of the New Zealand Standard, is approved by Land
    Information New Zealand, and can be considered for adoption;

     a)    “Willem”

     b)    “Rotterdam”

     c)    “Tulip”.

14. The Road Types recommended are:
     a)    Lane
     b)    Way.

15. Alternatively, the Committee could select a name for either streets from;

     a)    the Reserved Street Name List attached as Appendix 2; or

     b)    other names tabled during the meeting.

16. Other names tabled during the meeting can be considered for use as above
    but are subject to the requirements of the New Zealand Standard and must
    have a second recommended name, in case it is not suitable.

17. An appropriate road type must be selected (as permitted by the New
    Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4819:2011) attached as Appendix 3 to the report.

Consultation
18. Suggestions for new street names have been invited from Port Nicholson
    Block Settlement Trust.

19. Suggestions have also been sought from the general public with a notice in
    the Hutt News.

Street, Avalon
13                              10 March 2020
20. Neither party has made any submissions.

21. The van Baarle family has expressed their support for the names to be used.

Legal Considerations
22. The Committee has the delegated responsibility to name the private road.

23. It is important that new streets are named early in the development stage as
    a variety of utility connections and other administrative bodies require
    individual street addresses, in order for the necessary connections to be
    provided.

Financial Considerations
24. There are no financial considerations. The developer is responsible for the
    necessary street name signs. This will be undertaken by the Council
    contractor with the cost paid for by the developer.

        Proposed New Private Street Name:
     Subdivision of 7 and 7A Bloomfield Terrace,
                     Hutt Central
Purpose of Report

1.    To seek approval for an appropriate street name for the new private road in
      the new Subdivision of 7 and 7A Bloomfield Terrace, Hutt Central.

Recommendations
That the Committee:

(i) approves the name for the new private road in the new Subdivision of 7 and
    7A Bloomfield Terrace, Hutt Central attached as Appendix 1 to the report, as
    suggested below:
     a) “Martha” suggested road type “Lane”; or
     b) an alternate name from the Reserved Street Name list, attached as
        Appendix 2 to the report; or
     c) an appropriate name tabled during the meeting; and
(ii) approves the appropriate road type (as permitted by the New Zealand
     Standard AS/NZS 4819:2011) as shown attached as Appendix 3 to the report.
These recommendations are made so the development may proceed to
completion as a variety of utility connections and other administrative bodies
require individual street addresses in order for the necessary connections to be
provided.

Background

2.    The subdivision of 7 and 7A Bloomfield Terrace, Hutt Central will create one
      new private road and nine new residential properties, three gaining access
      off Bloomfield Terrace and six gaining access off the new Private Road, as
      shown in Appendix 1 attached to this report.

Bloomfield Terrace, Hutt Central
21                                  10 March 2020
3.   The responsibility for naming new private roads within Lower Hutt lies with
     the Community Boards or, in this case, with the Regulatory Committee for
     areas of the city not represented by Community Boards.

4.   The subdivision cannot proceed to completion without a legal street address.

Discussion
5. The developer has requested that Council consider the following name, after
    Martha Lawson, one of the original owners of the property being developed.

     “Martha” suggested Road Type “Lane”.

6.   The background of the name suggested has been attached to this report as
     Appendix 4.

7.   It is customary with new private roads to place emphasis upon any names
     suggested by the developer.

8.   When an individual’s first name and/or surname is to be used as a street
     name the person must be deceased and the name is typically not used unless
     a family member can be contacted to confirm they are happy with its use.

Options
9. The suggested name for the private road meets the requirements of the New
    Zealand Standard, is approved by Land Information New Zealand, and can
    be considered for adoption.

     “Martha”.

10. The Road Type recommended is: Lane

11. Alternatively, the Committee could select a name from the Reserved Street
    Names list attached as Appendix 2.

12. Other names tabled during the meeting can be considered for use but are
    subject to the requirements of the New Zealand Standard and must have a
    second recommended name, in case it is not suitable.

13. An appropriate road type must be selected (as permitted by the New
    Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4819:2011) attached as Appendix 3 to the report.

Consultation
14. As is normal with the naming of private roads, consultation has been limited
    to the developer and their community network.

15. Martha Lawson’s family has expressed their support and blessing for the
    name to be used.

Legal Considerations
16. The Committee has the delegated responsibility to name the private road.

17. It is important that new streets are named early in the development stage as
    a variety of utility connections and other administrative bodies require

      individual street addresses, in order for the necessary connections to be
      provided.

Financial Considerations
18. There are no financial considerations. The developer is responsible for the
    necessary street name signs. This will be undertaken by the Council
    contractor with the cost paid by the developer.

        Proposed New Private Street Name:
     Subdivision of 155-157 Waterloo Road, Hutt
                       Central
Purpose of Report

1.    To seek approval for an appropriate street name for the new private road in
      the new Subdivision of 155-157 Waterloo Road, Hutt Central.

Recommendations
That the Committee:

(i) approves the name for the new private road in the new Subdivision of 155-
    157 Waterloo Road, Hutt Central attached as Appendix 1 to the report, from
    the names suggested below:
      a)   “John Reynolds” suggested road type “Lane/ Square”; or
      b)   an alternate name from the Reserved Street Name list, attached as
           Appendix 2 to the report; or
      c)   an appropriate name tabled during the meeting; and
(ii) approves the appropriate road type (as permitted by the New Zealand
     Standard AS/NZS 4819:2011) as shown attached as Appendix 3 to the report.
These recommendations are made so the development may proceed to
completion as a variety of utility connections and other administrative bodies
require individual street addresses in order for the necessary connections to be
provided.

Background

2.    As an outcome of the development of the former Waterloo Fire Station at
      155-157 Waterloo Road, Hutt Central, a new private road and 14 new
      residential properties will be created as shown in Appendix 1 attached to
      this report.

Waterloo Road, Hutt Central

3.   The responsibility for naming new private roads within Lower Hutt lies with
     the Community Boards or, in this case, with the Regulatory Committee for
     areas of the city not represented by Community Boards.

4.   The subdivision cannot proceed to completion without a legal street address.

Discussion
5. The developer has requested that Council consider the following options
    after John Reynolds, a firefighter in the Waterloo Station, to reflect his
    contribution to the community.

     a) “John Reynolds” Lane/ Square; or

     b) “Reynolds” Lane/ Square.

6.   The background of the name suggested has been attached to this report as
     Appendix 4.

7.   It is customary with new private roads to place emphasis upon any names
     suggested by the developer.

8.   These names have been checked with Land Information New Zealand and
     received the following comments (shown in italics).

     a) “John Reynolds Lane/Square” - John Reynolds Square/Lane Would be
        acceptable in this location.

     b) “Reynolds Lane/Square” – Not an acceptable option as there is Reynolds
        Street, Taita (approx. 4kms).

          There are several instances of John Street in the Hutt region and neighbouring
          Territorial Authorities. Proximity is close for the roads but John Reynolds
          Square/Lane does have differentiation over these street names.

9.   When an individual’s first name and/or surname is to be used as a street
     name the person must be deceased and the name is typically not used unless
     a family member can be contacted to confirm they are happy with its use.

Options
10. Of the two options submitted, only the following meets the requirements of
    the New Zealand Standard, is approved by Land Information New Zealand,
    and can be considered for adoption.

     a)    “John Reynolds”

11. The Road Types recommended are:

     a)    Lane

     b)    Square

12. Alternatively, the Committee could select a name from the Reserved Street
    Names list attached as Appendix 2.

13. Other names tabled during the meeting can be considered for use but are
    subject to the requirements of the New Zealand Standard and must have a
    second recommended name, in case it is not suitable.

14. An appropriate road type must be selected (as permitted by the New
    Zealand Standard AS/NZS 4819:2011) attached as Appendix 3 to the report.

Consultation
15. As is normal with the naming of private roads, consultation has been limited
    to the developer and their community network.

16. John Reynolds’ family has expressed their support and blessing for the name
    to be used.

Legal Considerations
17. The Committee has the delegated responsibility to name the private road.

18. It is important that new streets are named early in the development stage as
    a variety of utility connections and other administrative bodies require
    individual street addresses, in order for the necessary connections to be
    provided.

Financial Considerations
19. There are no financial considerations. The developer is responsible for the
    necessary street name signs. This will be undertaken by the Council
    contractor with the cost paid by the developer.

annual Eastbourne Memorial Returned Services Association Anzac Day Event
2020; and closures for previous year’s events have not solicited any complaints
from the public.

Background

2.   Council has received a request from the Secretary of the Eastbourne
     Memorial RSA (Inc.) for the closure of roads and ‘No Stopping’ restrictions
     for the annual Eastbourne Memorial Returned Services Association Anzac
     Day Event.

3.   Council at its meeting of 12 August 2008 approved a procedure for Council
     to follow to comply with the Local Government Act 1974 (Schedule 10)
     (LGA) provisions for temporary road closures for events.

4.   Processes have been established to implement these procedures, including
     the required communications and consultations prior to any approval of a
     closure.

5.   For those events where vehicles remaining on roads are considered to be a
     safety concern, it is necessary for Council to also pass a resolution that, for
     the duration of the event, the roads be subject to a ‘No Stopping’ resolution.

6.   Council can then erect temporary signage and its Parking Enforcement
     Officers can attend the event and authorise the removal of any offending
     vehicles.

7.   This report has been prepared in accordance with the approved procedures.

Discussion
8. The Council’s Traffic Engineer – Network Operations, acting as Council’s
    Traffic Engineer, has assessed the proposed closure with regards to its
    expected impact on traffic. He has provided a professional opinion as to
    whether the resulting impact on traffic is likely to be reasonable or
    unreasonable.

9.   The proposed closure, if implemented according to the proposed traffic
     management plans and in accordance with any specific conditions set by the
     Traffic Engineer, should not result in any unreasonable impact on traffic.

10. For the Eastbourne Memorial Returned Services Association Anzac Day
    Event 2020, any vehicles remaining on the roads as detailed in
    recommendations (i) to (iii) will be a safety concern and therefore temporary
    ‘No Stopping Restrictions’ are required to enable those vehicles to be
    removed.

Consultation
11. The public was notified that Council was going to consider the proposed
    temporary road closure through a Public Notice advertisement in The Hutt
    News on Tuesday 14 January 2020. No correspondence had been received at
    the time this report was finalised, however any subsequent correspondence
    will be presented at the Committee Meeting.

Eastbourne Memorial Returned Services Association ANZAC Day Event 2020
38                              10 March 2020
12. Public notice of any decision to close roads will be advertised in The Hutt
    News.

Legal Considerations
13. Approval is required from Council, or the Regulatory Committee, to allow
    for the temporary closure of roads and temporary ‘No Stopping’ restrictions.
    This will ensure that Council is complying with the requirements of the
    Local Government Act 1974 (Schedule 10) for the temporary closure of roads
    for events within its jurisdiction.

14. In making this recommendation, officers have given careful consideration to
    the purpose of local government in section 10 of the Local Government Act
    2002. Officers believe that this recommendation falls within the purpose of
    local government in that it complies with the requirements of the Local
    Government Act 1974 (Schedule 10) for the temporary closure of roads for
    events.

Financial Considerations
15. For community events, the cost of public notices in The Hutt News is paid
    from Council budgets. For commercial events, the cost of the public notices
    is passed onto the appropriate event organiser. This is a community event.

Prior Closures

The proposed closure for this event will not result in a road being closed for an aggregate of more

than 31 days in any year as set down in Schedule 10, Section 11e of the Local Government Act 1974.

Traffic Impact

In the opinion of Charles Agate, Network Traffic Engineer – Transport, acting as Council’s Traffic
Engineer, the proposed closure, if implemented according to an approved temporary traffic
management plan, is not likely to impede traffic unreasonably, subject to the conditions listed
below.
It is noted that the Council reserves the right to modify this opinion at any time.

In this particular instance there should be very little in the way of wider network effects because the
event is being held on a public holiday (Anzac Day). Previous closures of this section of Muritai Road
on a weekend have had no reported traffic problems.

6.       Conditions of Closure
Subsequent to approval, the applicant will be notified of the decision, and if approved, required to
adhere to the following conditions;
      The access requirements of residents and business affected by the closures must be taken
        into account.
      The event organiser must apply for a Corridor Access Request (CAR) via Submitica
        (www.submitica.com) no less than 30 days prior to the event
      The event organiser must provide to Council a compliant Temporary Traffic Management
        Plan (TTMP) prepared by a suitably qualified person and be appropriate for both the level of
        road and the nature of the closure, no less than 30 days prior to the event.
      All Temporary Traffic Management (TTM) must comply with NZTA’s Code of Practice for
        Temporary Traffic Management (CoPTTM) and any conditions set down by Councils’ Corridor
        Manager and/or Traffic Management Coordinator (TMC)
      The event organiser must gain both CAR and TTMP Approvals a minimum of 7 days prior to
        the scheduled event date to ensure the event can proceed.

      All TTM is to be installed by suitably qualified personnel, under the supervision of a NZTA
        qualified Site Traffic Management Supervisor (STMS).

      The closure is restricted to the roads, dates and times as approved by Council.
      The event organiser must have a valid Health and Safety plan which details how emergency
        vehicles can gain access to the closure area during the event.
      The event organiser is required to comply with the directions of both the Police and
        authorised officers of the Road Controlling Authority (HCC).
      The event organiser is responsible for the management of all work relating to the physical
        closure of roads and maintaining both the closure and public safety within the closure area.
      The event organiser is responsible for ensuring closed roads are left in a suitably clean and
        tidy state following the completion of the event.
