Summary Report of All Written Submissions by Topic for the 2018 Representation Review 2018

Topic Summary Comments

Not Support. I fear our voices will not be heard and will be lost if the adjustment proposal is approved.

We (Waihi Beach) are not part of Katikati . The current structure gives our community a voice to

Council.

Supports the proposal.

REP18 2 Number of Councillors 1.1 Number of Councillors Not Support. The number of Councillors representing the 3 wards be reduced from the current 11 to 9

Councillors plus the Mayor elected at large. Census population figures will allow 8 Councillors based on

2 Councillors in the Western ward and 3 in each of the Central and Eastern wards. Equal numbers of

Councillors in each ward should be considered and is a better long term policy, justifiable when

considering the number of rateable properties in the western ward (9724), well in excess of either of the

other wards (Central 4366 and Eastern 7024). Arguments will be that properties cannot be considered

but in view of rates gathered weighting should be introduced considering them. From a meshblock

perspective the western ward would be over represented on the population ratios but dispensation could

be sought from the 10% +- and the southern boundary of the western ward adjusted.

This proposal would give a population to Councillor ratio of just over 5400 per councillor which appears

reasonable compared with Tauranga City (1=12700).

Currently there are 32 elected members representing approximately 1531 of population. This has to be

excessive representation and needs to be reduced. 3 Boards instead of 5 must bring better efficiency

and greatly reduce cost.Not Support. Recommend that the Mayor plus eight are considered with two from each of the East and

West and three from the Central Ward area where the population is most rapidly increasing as indicated

by the proposed boundary adjustment.

Alternative suggestion that the Kaimai Ward be Te Puna and Omokoroa from Wairoa Bridge to Esdaile

Road including Aongatete (Wright Road) with a separate ward for SH29/Oropi/Tauriko.

It should give a louder voice to what the community wants.

No Opinion as I do not live in the area

No Opinion. Those affected by potential change to comment on this

Seems reasonable

Submitter supports the proposal. We get more say, might get more done in Maketu.

Does not have any impact on democratic rights

Little to no impact on ratepayers and democracy

REP18 3 Ward Boundary

Adjustments

1.1 Proposed Minor Ward

Boundary Adjustment between

Katikati/Waihi Beach and

Kaimai Ward

No Opinion. Its minor change and should have little impact.

Increased size of ward likely to reduce effectiveness of representation.

Waihi Beach will lack representation as a separate unique community. No longer trust our Mayor and his

councillors for fair representation of community wishes and best interests evidenced by biased Maori

Wards proposal.

Living on Esdaile Road we rarely go into Katikati - no connections there. If this area were ever to

develop any sense of community being split down the middle of the road between two wards would be no

help. Not a minor change for us.

No Opinion. The people in that area who are affected should make this decision.

Support. The addition of the Pahoia meshblock is an area closely associated with Katikati in community,

schooling and arts.

Support on the basis of a combined community board (example Te Puke/Maketu).

Not Support. We are different communities. Community Board members from Waihi Beach will not be

so familiars with Kaimai.

Not Support. We are different communities.

Support. No significant difference affected.


Adjustments




Kaimai Ward

Agree with the increased number of people in the area. It would be good to have a representative from

the Waihi Beach area. Katikati is agriculturally oriented whereas Waihi Beach is more of a holiday area

with property owners paying higher rates that are not coming back to the area.

Support as additional numbers help support population based representation for Katikati/Waihi Beach

Ward, however people in the (boundary change) area more connected with Katikati due to

horticultural/business interests.

Not Support. Will further remove Waihi Beach ability to elect a local representative. Amount of

permanent residents in Katikati Community Board area will always outnumber Waihi Beach. Rating

without representation. Waihi Beach pays significant rates not reflected in spend on Waihi Beach

compared with Katikati Ward.

Waihi Beach and Maketu/Pukehina are more retirement / holiday areas, where as Te Puke and Katikati

are horticulture / agriculture and have to have councillors and plitically their own community boards to

better understand the wishes of the people in there respective areas. Very underhanded way of some

councillors and the mayor acting like spoilt children who didn't get their own agenda through (as shown in

May's referendum).

Adjustments




Kaimai Ward

Not Support. In spite of paying high rates at Waihi Beach, resources and money are already spread too

thin as it is. So I don't agree to any boundary change that will increase demand on existing

resources/money.

Not Support. I feel that Athenree/Waihi Beach is already poorly represented by Council. This simply puts

more people into the Katikati end of the ward meaning we stand to be further marginalised.

Makes area too large and then the voice of the larger area will over ride the quieter voice of a smaller

area.

Its reasonable

Support - Residents of Wainui South Road, Works Road and the Apata area have more in common or

interaction with the Katikati area rather than the Kaimai, Pyes Pa, Oropi area.

Adjustments




Kaimai Ward

Not Support - I oppose this proposal.

Support - I consider it fair to have te district divided evenly. However the Waihi Beach/Katikati ward

should have 4 Councillors as per the other two wards. To recognise that Waihi Beach has a different

'flavour' to Katikati and the new area, this 'additional' Councillor should come from Waihi Beach area,

with a seperate voterbase.

Minor - in whose opinion? This term is a pre-judgement that should be removed as it may influence the

opinions of voters. Let the voters have their full entitlement to be heard fairly.

Not Support. There will be proportionally fewer Waihi Beach residents within the ward, therefore even

less of a voice for Beach residents. Why add 'minor' boundary adjustment. Could be seen as 'significant'

in terms of people involved.

Not Support - Waihi Beach is already under represented by number of rateable houses.

Support. I do feel that the Kaimai ward is too big and as it includes the small towns of Te Puna and

Omokoroa the issues concerning these areas will be dominant in the ward. The more rural areas will get

little attention.

Support. No problem with adjusting boundaries to reflect population growth or change.

No Opinion. Residents group did not address this part of the proposal.

No Opinion. How can one express on an opinion when such basic information as to how existing wards

have been established is not included in data presented? Wards need to centre around communities of

common interest.

Support. I feel it will provide better representation of the local communities and be flexible and agile in

regard to the day to day running.

Not Support. I disagree because Waihi Beach gets the least attention when it comes to Council

spending. If the area is increased we will probably get less. Waihi Beach residents/home owners pay the

biggest and probably the most rates in the Western Bay district, but we do not see big spends. Katikati

has a flash new library. Omokoroa has a new very flash children's playground. Waihi Beach playgrounds

are old, very basic, have never been upgraded. Waihi Beach has 16 Streets/Ave's that do not have

footpaths. So people in these areas who wish ti walk to Village shops/Playgrounds/Beach have to use

the road. These are mothers with babies in prams, small children walking or on bikes, old people with

mobility scooters, whellchairs who have to use the roads.

Support. Distributes possibly fairer population balance. Presumably Omokoroa will grow faster than

Katikati/Waihi Beach. Therefore proposal may equalise this.

Not Support. We need a representative from Waihi Beach elected by the ratepayers at Waihi Beach. Not

done by Katikati.

Not Support. No way do we need boundary changes, please ensure Waihi Beach remains as it is.

Adjustments




Kaimai Ward

Support. It seems a fairer distribution to enlarge the Waihi ward.

Not Support. This change would make the Katikati-Waihi Beach ward more skewed so that there will be

a larger bias away from the smaller local population of Waihi Beach. As it is there is no Councillor

representing an area generating $10.5 million in rates from 3000 residents. We need to stem the flow of

this money for unwanted projects in other parts if the district. E.g. Katikati Centre and Library, Cycle

lanes that are rarely used, a museum that is a drain on our rates that very few people visit, new toilet

block. So shifting the boundary will make it even more difficult for any Waihi resident to be elected to

Council as only a very small proportion of votes are from the beach.

No Opinion. The Te Puke Community Board is not entirely convinced that three wards in the Western

Bay of Plenty area has been a positive change. The Board is divided on this issue as it would appear

that the current change is being bought about through the concept of "Community of Interest," that

people in the affected area share common links with educational, shopping, social and other needs.

There is a feeling on the Board that Western Bay residents were better served by having five wards in

the past. However, in reality we now have three Wards and if the adjustment of the boundary between

the two Wards to the west of us will result in a small ratio of councillors to residents we see that as a

positive change.

Support. A more natural boundary.

Support. Because the people living there may have a closer relationship to the people and activities

based around Katikati nui o Tamatekapua.

Support. I support the reasons outlined by Council.

Not Support. I would be surprised if people living in the area of proposed change would see Katikati as

their community of interest, especially with the expected commercial centre with new development at

Omokoroa. I would prefer consideration to dividing the Kaimai Ward into two, one east, one west - with

Western Bay having four wards in total.

Not Support. Only if we get members on Council to make things fair. As there is no money spent at Waihi

Beach.Not Support. The boundary has been moved for convenience rather than need.

A better representation would be to move the boundary to the Wairoa river. People in Pyes Pa, Oropi,

Not Support. Boundary substitutes appear to affect common communities of Katikati and area of Kaimai.

However the increased size of the ward could further result in the uniqueness of Waihi Beach not being

recognised or respected. The numbers game for Waihi Beach to receive fair representation is so

inequitable we are unlikely to get any representation at all.

We are a unique community whose unique voice and needs will not be heard or met in a larger ward.

Katikati is a different community whose needs cannot represent us. We need our own Councillor. If

population size dictates how many Councillors we get, perhaps we should be looking at a Waihi Beach

average population? We change from a small town to a city overnight during holidays and weekends.

Until the Council can find a fair and reliable system which allows the absentee property owners to first

hear and be informed on significant matters and then have voice, enlarging the geographical area will not

be accepted.

To continue to disadvantage one area that is growing and totally unique in the district to favour another is

not a practical option.

Not Support. The Community at Pio Shores/ Bowentown and Waihi Beach has mostly non resident

property owners (Ratepayers) who have to register to vote in local body elections. Shifting the ward

boundary further south disadvantages Waihi Beach / Bowentown resident ratepayers share of the total of

votes cast. Currently we are struggling to get a councillor elected from our area. This proposal will further

aggravate this situation.

Not Support The workload on 3 Councillors for the area is totally unsuitable. Katikati-Waihi Beach has

only 3 Councillors that we do not hear from now. Out Katikati area has not had any public meetings

called by representatives to discuss or inform Councils thoughts for our area and receive feedback. They

are not attending out Community Board meeting to hear or discuss issues. Bigger wards less

consultation from elected members.

Kaimai Ward

Not Support. Populations are still changing and more building is still to be done in these areas.

It will further serve to diminish Waihi Beach's voice in Council affairs.

Not Support There should be an additional change to the proposed ward boundary adjustment. The

Kaimai Ward is too big, should be split at the Wairoa River Boundary. It would mean that the people in

the affected areas would become part of the ward in which they share common links with educational,

shopping , social and other needs.

Adjustments




Kaimai Ward

Not Support. Waihi Beach is on the northern fringe of WBOP area and we lack some of the attention to

work in our area.

Not Support. Joining us with another ward would make that situation even worse.

Not Support. With larger area proposed our voice will not be heard. Until the holiday owners are allowed

to vote in Council elections. So keep our own Waihi Beach.

Support, makes sense

It will be a more even division

I support the advocacy that each community should have its own community board; Waihi Beach is now

a big community; with a very active town centre; it merits its own board.

Support. It makes sense to include the lifestyle blocks and change of land use into this ward. IT is

reflective of the changes that are occurring in our area.

No Opinion. Its up to those that live in this ward to make that decision.

Support. If it means that the area being taken from the Kaimai Ward has more commonality with the

Katikati - Waihi Beach Ward, then why not? Commonality with that ward means they would be better

represented by person's from within it.

Not Support. If the number of Councillors per ward is adjusted the boundary change to reduce the size

of the Kaimai Ward may not be necessary.

No Opinion. Best left to those in the area.

Support. Because fol in the area to be changed are more likely to do their day to day shopping and social

activity within Katikati, than Tauranga, which is the hub for Kaimai residents.

Not Support. Should be 5 Wards as previously. Waihi Beach should have a councillor.

Not Support. Council should get back to 5 wards, so Waihi Beach and Maketu end get a better deal. I

understand Te Puke would like to go back to a borough, and parts of Katikati and Waihi Beach are

starting to talk about going to Hauraki, for rate relief and better operating efficiency and user friendly

environment.

No Opinion. I leave it to those who are in the areas affected by the change.

Not Support. Does not relate to Waihi Beach.

Not Support. While the idea of changing the boundary between the Kaimai and Katikati, Waihi Beach

Ward that brings in another 517 dwellings into the Katikati Waihi Beach Ward, is needed to balance the

numbers of people per Councillor, for the chosen number of Councillors, it does have a down side.

Waihi Beach is a noticeable sized community and with what I am led to believe, has the second most

utility connections in the district. It is also very unique in the district, with a very large non resident

population. The people of Waihi Beach should qualify for a Councillor on their own, but the numbers are

being stacked against that happening.

Support. Minimal change.

Not Support. Unnecessary change for no good reason.

No Opinion. Because I am a Maketu resident - nothing to do with other areas.

Support. Possibly evens the Ward size up a bit more.

No Opinion. I defer to the opinion of those actually living in the area under consideration. I have a longer-

term interest in building an extended view of these two communities, based on a similarity of concerns

and commitments of those living on the side-roads along SH2 between Te Puna and, say, Aongatete.

Support. Minor change not much effect either way.

Not Support. Katikati and Waihi Beach are two distinctly different communities and warrant separate

representation.

Adjustments




Kaimai Ward

Not Support. Pahoia residents relate to Omokoroa as their local community. Not Katikati and Waihi

Beach.

Support. With the urbanisation of Omokoroa, the rural flavoured peninsula's and inland areas should

remain rural in nature have more in common with Katikati than the urbanisation to the south of this area.

As a Katikati WAihi Beach ward person I welcome these communities to our rural areas if they wish to

come join us.

Not Support. While I have no objection to the minor change, I believe the existing ward has resulted in

unfair representation of Waihi Beach. We currently have no resident Councillor. Katikati an Waihi Beach

are quite different in their demographics, environment, and culture. I would like to see a return to a

separate Waihi Beach ward. Waihi Beach is on the fringes of Western Bay and our community often

feels neglected while paying the highest rates in the district.

Not Support. No we want 5 wards, 12 Councillors.

Not Support. It does appear to have a detrimental effect on the residents of the Waihi Beach community.

When Council changed to the three wards this triennium Waihi Beach residents lost their representation

on the Western Bay Council. A reflection of the unfairness of the electoral system which establishes

wards on the basis of population rather than community interests. This change is not likely to raise the

probability of Waihi Beach residents being represented around the Council table.

Support. Support the boundary adjustment between the Katikati-Waihi Beach/Kaimai Wards for broader

representation.

Adjustments




Kaimai Ward

Not Support. Will only move the centre of the ward further away from Waihi Beach.

Support. Re align to accurately with community with ward and closeness to Katikati as centre for those

south of current border.

Not Support. This will increase the number of residents who have an affiliation with Katikati. I see no

obvious advantage of this change for Waihi Beach.

Support. More honest.

Support. Better balance.

Not Support. Because your new boundary line proposal appears to run through Omokoroa township.

Support. Non controversial and in the general interest of the community.

Support. So long as this is an improvement.

Like it as it is

Not Support. I believe that the Waihi Beach ward needs its own representation as the population

fluctuates quite dramatically over the holiday period and the locals are far more competent to look after

their affairs.

There should be 5 wards and 24 Councillors.

Support. Improves equity.

Disagree with the boundary change. Puts Waihi Beach further out. Don't need more people and areas in

the mix.

Community of Waihi Beach is already at a geographic disadvantage.

Council is doing the boundary adjustment for the right reasons.

More voices for our community.

No Opinion. Probable yes - seems sensible change, however as it does not affect our ward I cannot give

a definite yes.

Support. Seems to make sense for the people to be included as part of this adjustment to be aligned with

Katikati.

No Opinion. This boundary change dsoes not include or excludes to some degree rural areas.

No Opinion. Makes sense.

Not Support. Hard to see how people in an area equidistant from Katikati and Tauranga City will come

north when they have a bigger choice of amenities and facilities towards Tauranga City.

No Opinion. We would both rather be back in Hauraki. Our beach belongs to Waihi.

Support. If it will benefit 517 dwellings then it must be good.


Adjustments




Kaimai Ward

Support. It seems a fair proposal and I can't see any reason to not proceed with it

No Opinion. I am a Maketu resident and want to keep our Council.

Not Support. I believe Waihi Beach should have its own direct representation.

Not Support. This proposed boundary adjustment is not advantageous to Waihi Beach having fair

representation.

Not Support. I want to keep it as it is.

No Opinion. If the ward boundaries are adjusted to reflect better representation then its a positive move.

Not Support. Boundary substitutes appear to effect common communities of Katikati and area of Kaimai.

However the increased size of the ward could further result in the uniqueness of Waihi Beach not being

recognised or respected. The numbers game for Waihi Beach to receive fair representation in so

inequitable we are unlikely to get any representation at all. Waihi Beach is a unique community. Katikati

is a different community whose needs represent us.

Not Support. Proposed change will dilute the Waihi Beach area as a distinct political entity. Has

different needs from Katikati and should be able to decide on these ourselves.

Local Representation 1.1 Initial Proposal Disestablish

Community Boards/Establish

Community Committees

Representation should be through elected officials. If a proportion of the electorate is not represented by

community boards then include them in the current boards or expand the boards to include all the

electorate. I would rather maintain local community boards through existing democratically elected

representatives. Removing elected boards and replacing them with council appointees retrograde,

undemocratic and unnecessary.

Changing to Community Committees not democratic. Council does not listen to consultation, public

disinterested. Opinions of councillors prevail eg the poll on tribal based preferential seats.

Advantages of having a local on the community board is they know what the problems are as they are a

living part of that problem. They are more aware than ever of having the community at heart. Skill sets

come with life experience. Maketu is treated like the slum of BOP - everything takes so much longer to

get fixed. If it isn't for community minded people here ringing the council and community board, it

wouldn't get done.

Not happy with Council approach. Stick to core infrastructure and services. Waihi Beach residents will

effectively be dis-enfranchised, appointees will out number elected members on committees. It is not

democratic to have members appointed by Council. There's good local support for our community board.

Community board members live in the ward. Community Committees will cost more to run than boards.

Reduce local effectiveness of representation and democratic process. Concerned about how people will

be appointed to the community committee with no formal election process.

Waihi Beach will lack representation as a separate unique community. No longer trust our Mayor and his

councillors for fair representation of community wishes and best interests evidenced by biased Maori

Wards proposal.

Support conditional on some improvement in representation. Not been good for us in a semi-rural area.

Concerned about moves towards non-elected representatives. Would like to see proposals to deal with

disadvantages listed in the initial proposal booklet.

Not Support. Further remove ability to influence the government from local people because

representatives will not be elected. Maketu is a unique community and engagement with Council

seriously diluted in a community committee configuration.

We need our own community board to remain. This board speaks/acts for our community. There is no

representative member of council living within our local community. I fear our voices will not be heard

and will be lost if the adjustment proposal is approved. We are not part of Katikati. We have different

needs. I feel the current structure gives our community a voice to the council. Community Boards are

best with a strong voice back to Council.

The current community board system doesn't work, we hear nothing of what has been done or proposed

by the board from one year to the next. The calibre of applicants it is not surprising. If council selects

the right people to represent us we should be better off.

Keep community boards for the community to vote who goes on the board, not Council.

Support the continuation of the Maketu Community Board as democratically chosen representation of the

community. A diverse cross-section that represents many organisations. Non-biased. Has a legal entity

under the Local Electoral Act.

Not Support. The community board will represent Maketu more than a community committee.

Retain my democratic right to elect my community board representative from my community - not an

outside committee member.

To retain my democratic right to elect my community board representative from my community - not an

outside committee member.

Not Support. I want our local making decisions for our community.

Local people should make decisions for their community. (Community Boards) mean local

representatives can be held responsible for their decisions.

Support. Representatives will need a track record with community involvement. and understand the

bigger picture of central/regional government, with particular back yard interest, and the ability to liaise

with all stakeholder groups including Iwi. Some remuneration required. Ward specialists could feed

information to councillors on their specific areas, have performance reviews with annual appointments

and be given training such as Board of Directors. Strongly support the change to increase efficiencies of

decision making.

Not Support. Even less reason to listen to the community than the Mayor and Community Board do now.

The people should be listened to and not over-ridden by a group/groups of people that don't want to and

won't listen.

Not Support. Local representation most important. Local people should make decisions about local

improvement, not a central board in Greerton. Wards should have representation of each local area by

people living in that area, not appointed by head office.

Not Support - Unknown.

Outside democracy. A committee would not have elected members in it and could be hand picked for

Council preferred outcomes. Open to curruption.

Non elected people to represent our community. Not democratic and open to select picking of committee

members and open to corruption.

All local representation should be subject to election

Not Support - Community Committee Appointment Process. The proposal is undemocratic. Retain the

right to elect representatives of our community.

If Council appoints members will only appoint those who agree with Council. As it is The community

votes on appointments to represent their views. Ratepayers get a chance to be on the community

boards.

To retain our community board and my right to elect it.

Not Support - Community Committee Appointment Process. Not enough detail. Will appointments be

paid or voluntary.

Not Support - Unknown. This is a way round the consensus to eliminate race based delegates. To obtain

a way around a preference by council that has been overturned in a democratic way.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Our board has us as his priority.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I support the existing elected community boards.

Support with the qualification that members should still be elected at large (3) plus appointed (2) and

there should be an even number of Councillors. This is the opportunity to ensure ratepayers get fair and

even opportunity to communicate by creating ward boards (3 wards = 3 ward boards). Eastern ward

board represented by members from areas of Te Puke, Maketu, Rangiuru, Pukehina and

Otumarakau/Paengaroa (or 3 members elected at large from the Eastern ward + 3 councillors). The new

Central ward communities of interest are seen to be Omokoroa, Whakamarama, Te Puna/Minden, Lower

Kaimai/Omanawa and Pyes Pa/Welcome Bay who would each provide a member (or 3 members

elected at large from the Central ward + 3 councillors). Representation on the Western ward Board

would be members of Waihi Beach, Katikati and Matakana (or 3 members elected at large from the

Western ward + 3 councillors).

This proposal would strengthen local advocacy. Ward Board Chairs should be on Council committees

along with the Chair Maori Forum. Council should also second two members who are residents from

each ward selected for proven ability and knowledge of the long term values of that area, as an

invaluable source of knowledge for the boards.

Hence each ward board would be 3 elected members, plus 2 seconded members, plus the three

Councillors from the ward.Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I believe the shoulder tapping process

to form a committee is the wrong way. An elected combined board of Maketu and Te Puke residents

would be the right way.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. We will lose the ability to have any

input into our local representation if the opportunity to elect our boards is removed.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I like to talk to Board members.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I like to talk to local community board members. It is not

democratic to have members appointed by Council.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Back boards in their desire to improve facilities in their

respective areas.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Waihi Beach residents will effectively

be dis-enfranchised. Appointees with out-number elected members on Committees. It is not democratic

to have members appointed by Council. Community Board members live in the ward so their knowledge

and experience of local issues can be utilised. Community Board members will be much more

approachable than committee members most if not all of whom will come from outside Waihi Beach.

Community Committee will cost more to run than boards.

Support. Agree with the change. Support the change to community committee, but must have a strong

representative from Waihi Beach. Waihi Beach has completely different demographics compared to

Katikati and different community interests. Waihi Beach needs a strong representative and committee.

Important that we have at least one councillor from the Waihi Beach area.

Support -Support mainly because of the Council's presentation of the proposal. It seems to make sense

but we live in Waihi Beach and we have completely different demographics to Katikati and a different

community of interest. We need to be sure that Waihi Beach has a strong representative on the

community committee - better still - a Councillor who is a Waihi Beach resident.Not Support disestablishment of the Waihi Beach Community Board because it will not result in fairer or

better representation of the community's needs to Council. Council choice of who is on the committee

undemocratic. How will a good cross section be chosen. How many will be chosen with 13 potential

community groups and areas in Waihi Beach making numbers unworkable. If numbers restricted no

improvement in representation. The ability to manage volunteer nature of representatives in terms of

time provided, rights, obligations, measurement of achievements, accountability. Is the community effort

on committees for free - will Councillors take a pay cut? For better representation the Waihi Beach

Community Board needs more powers to deal with local issues. Councillors from Katikati do not

understand Waihi Beach issues. Council should designate that one of the three Katikati/Waihi Beach

Councillors be a Waihi Beach Athenree resident.

Support - With people who have the required skills being co-opted on the committee when needed I think

you will get a fairer representation of the community ie. High School students for youth issues,

pensioners for senior citizen issues, sports people for sports issues etc.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I disagree because I believe Waihi Beach and

Maketu/Pukehina are more retirement/holiday areas, where as Te Puke and Katikati are

horticulture/agriculture. Politically there own community boards to better understand the wishes of the

people in there respective areas.Support. The community boards are a colonial inheritance and have passed their use by date. It is simple

these days for constituents to make contact with Council and /or Councillors and I cannot see how these

boards continue to be justified. The proposed new Community Committees offer more fleexibility and the

opportunity to do away with "village thinking" which often constrain community potential. In Maketu the

Maketu Projects team has been effective at dealing with community issues, and there is no reason why it

cannot continue under the proposed restructure in its present form.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments Undemocratic.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. A democratic process ensure generally

good quality representation from delegates with the ward interests at hearts and independent of

WBOPDC.

- Increased risk of marginalisation of Maketu interests with a political appointee.

- Under the existing structure a history of proactive management of local interests/needs.

- Local knowledge and personal contacts could be at best reduced and at worst lost.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. A majority of ratepayers have good representation in the form

of Elected Community Board Members. Insufficient information has provided on the potential

replacement. If Boards are to be replaced with Committees how will the funding work. At present I am

levied for the Board in my area. If they are to be replaced by a Committee of nominated representation

and funded by a levy this would be akin to taxation without true representation.Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I strongly believe as rate payers we

should be given the opportunity to elect those that represent us.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. 1. It is contrary to the most basic principles of democracy. 2.

None of the reasons given in support of this change are valid. 3. Instead of getting rid of Community

Boards, Council should be bolstering their budgets giving them greater responsibilty.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Waihi Beach needs to be represented

by people who are 1. Democratically elected 2. Live in Waihi Beach/Athenree/Bowentown area.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Community Boards represent the best way forward.

Community Boards need to be given greater autonomy and decision making power so they can better

serve their communities. The Community Boards also represent a democratic approach to local matters.

We need more local decisions being made locally, not further centralisation to the council.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. The member of the community board are mandated by the

community. The members of the proposed community committee will not exist as a result of community

mandate. The former is democratic process the latter is not. Keep the Maketu Community Board in

Maketu to represent Maketu.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. If committee is comprised of the Council election it could leave

smaller areas with no representation. Our Maketu Board is very committed and proactive and if this new

system left us with no representation, our little community could suffer. I feel a community committee

system would take away the power of the smaller community.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Community Boards are an intrinsic part of our community. They

are people who are voted in by our community. Wider community committee is not good as the

requirements of rural and urban people are completely different and unless these new committees have

a very large number of people on them there will be conflicts in the future. The community boards need

to be correctly funded and given the authority to do their job and so the remuneration of the board

members needs to be reviewed.

I see this as a council plot to remove our democratic right to have a say over what happens in our

community.

Support - I don't feel that the current community boards have sufficient capability, experience or ability -

they've had many years to prove themselves. The people on the Waihi beach Board don't understand

how local Government works.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Lacks open,fair democratic process.

Do you agree that our Te Puke Community Board has its limitations - Does not represent the surrounding

rural communities - 67% (Ref P.10). Like the idea of a community council/board/hybrid amalgam. With

elected/co-opted representatives through the democratic process and 100% inclusive e.g. urban, rural,

lifestyle, village, iwi, communities. This means to me: that all elected councillors in our district - 4 - attend

(p7). It should have greater autonomy is inclusive has direct communication, engagement with

WBOPDC. Is agile timely robust and relevant (Ref P3).

How do we encourage, future local body potential representatives to give their time, energy, expertise,

civic care on our behalf?

Support. A large area of the Kaimai Ward has no representation to Council through a Community Board.

With a Community Committee each district could have a representative on that Committee, meeting with

one or more Councillors and that would give every district the same opportunity to engage with Council.

Kaimai is a large ward with two quite different area of population density. This ward could be cut into

two. One the Te Puna - Omokoroa area and the other Kaimai, Pyes Pa, Oropi, Ohauiti, etc. Each could

have two Councillors.

Support. Cultural diversity on the community committees. Tangata Whenua able to advocate, promote

and enhance Te Reo Maori both in public signage, use of the marae for the committee and wider

community. Promotion of tikanga/kowa. Rural area outside of Maketu better represented. Wider positive

collaboration across the district. Wider issues being addressed district wide. Wider collaboration for

tangata whenua - we absolutely support Maori representation.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Undermines our democratic right to vote for our

representatives.

More fluid committees that special interest groups can be invited to join when appropriate will lead to

much better results for residents and ratepayers. Good clear communication from the community

committee will be key to making this process work well. They should communicate upcoming issues and

projects and put calls out to specific user groups in good time. It would be good to have a register of

special interest groups so that the committees have 'go to' people who they can contact as they need.

Special interest groups could be linked to issues that affect them.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I strongly object to this undemocratic

non proposal.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I strongly disagree with Council

appointing their own councillors. These should be elected by the public they represent.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. This proposal deprives Waihi Beach of

Democratically Elected Membership.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. The proposal would deprive Waihi Beach of local

representation by democratically elected Community Board Members.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Keep the status quo on the five existing community boards.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. The Council is too secretive. We need

some representation and the board is the only way is to have an Elected Board not appointed.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I will not support unelected Committee

and wish to retain status quo.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Under no condition will I accept non

Elected Persons to be appointed.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I will not support this proposal as it is

very definitely democratic.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I want a Community Board, I want two councillors to represent

the Beach/Athenree, I want strong Waihi Beach/Athenree Residents and Ratepayers Association to

represent the community.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Community Committees are very likely

and prone to be Council nominees and/or self-appointed individuals - potentially yes men and women. A

back door method of getting Maori representation after Maori Wards were overwhelmingly rejected? The

Community Board at Waihi Beach is working very well.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Waihi Beach still needs its Community Board.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. We are better served by local boards, definitely.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Any proposal to remove residents

rights to elect their representatives should be properly tested to ascertain the majority public view. Polling

residents is the way to do this.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I oppose this proposal. A committee selected by Mayor

Webber and the Council will feel responsible to them an not to our ratepayers.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. It is an un-democratic option.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Community Boards work well. Locally elected people on boards

know their own communities and understand their needs, aspirations and interests. Community Boards

must be maintained/retained to rpovide democratic Local Government.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Why should Council appoint local

representatives - undemocratic. No guarantee of local beach people being appointed so probably no

beach voice. Community Committee costly - Boards cheaper. Board members are local.

Not Support - Unknown. I want to remain as is. I feel we need more say rather than less representation.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I strongly oppose unelected

Community Committees. It is our democratic right to appoint our own Community Board. These people,

like the council, are personally beholden to us and must remain so.

Support. More representative, used to live in Oropi, which had no presentation on a Community Board.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Submission represents a survey of 41 individuals and their

responses to a questionnaire (not framed in terms of the initial proposal).

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Let democratic principles rule. The

local population are those most capable of picking people who can best present their

aspirations/expectations to those in positions of responsibility, not a select few making appointments

which could be influenced by personal bias. Boards democratically elected.

Support. I feel it will provide better representation of the local communities and be flexible and agile in

regard to the day to day running.

Support. I think it is fairer as rural people have a better voice. I hope it will harness more people of ability

with interest in our community - especially people under the age of 50 years - who still work full time. The

present system virtually makes it impossible for hem to be elected members because of time

commitments.Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Because I want our Ward

representative to be residents within our ward and who have been democratically elected.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Some smaller communities have unique characteristics and

needs. A Community Board can best address those needs.

Support. I think this will give fairer representation across the area.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. In view of new information regarding

how members are chosen for these proposed committees, I do not agree with Committees.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. This would make things worse for

Waihi Beach. The proposal is very undemocratic and cannot be allowed to happen. My suggestion is that

the Community Board be given the budget to spend every dollar of rate generated money within our

community on what the community needs.

Support. As long as the committees are made up of local representatives that reflect the community as a

whole. The ward Community Committee needs to be made up of a mixture of elected and area specific

people. These can be representatives of the local community associations that have been elected by

their own communities. So as an idea, in the Te Puke ward that might would look like a representative

from the Maketu community association, Paengaroa community association, Pukehina/Pongakawa

community association, two from the Te Puke Community. Along with some WBOPDC councillors and

possible 1-2 shoulder tapped locals. This allows for each of the local communities to still elect people

onto their own community associations and decide the make up of the Ward community committee

through choosing a representative to represent the community association on the ward committee. This

model will also be cheaper in that there is no cost to the ratepayer for the community associations, but

only one ward committee for Council to fund. This allows more flexibility for the Council and the

community, as the community associations are less formal, are more flexible and quicker to move to

solve local issues but allow the wider ward committee to tackles the wider and bigger issues for the area.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. 1. The proposed change only offers an

either/ or option. A combination of options could be implemented where one ward or part ward is in

favour of a combination of options. Suggestion by the Council that five Community Boards be replaced

with three Community Committees stretches resources of each committee further than is likely to be

practicable. If additional resources are required for small communities that do not have current

Community Board representation, then a Community Committee may be an option to address their

needs. 3. The proposal to appoint people to the 'Community Committees' is both undemocratic and

arrogant.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I strongly disagree with this proposal by Council as i takes

away the democratic right for anyone to put themselves forward to be on the Community Board.

Support. My local Oropi Community is inadequately represented under the current Community Board

arrangement. Kaimai has the lowest percentage representation (20%) of all wards in the Western Bay

and 'rural residents and smaller communities are largely excluded' under existing representation. It must

be better for all in Kaimai to have representation from within the whole of the Kaimai boundary. Given the

Kaimai Ward's large area, it would also be reasonable to divide the ward into two halves, with 2

committee members elected to represent the communities to the east of the Wairoa River and the other

2 to represent communities to the west of the Wairoa.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. 1. Community Boards are focused on providing the best for

their communities, whereas community groups tend to be serving their own philosophies and intent. Not

the residents as a whole. Voices will be singular and misrepresented as being in common.

2. Community Boards work within their communities, and as such have their fingers on the pulse of the

community. This is because it is their role to do so. Shoulder tapped representatives will not do this,

especially if they are time poor.

3. The proposal gives more control to the Council and staff to steer community needs into their own

preconceived options. Appointed representatives, not elected representatives puts the power back to

those doing the appointing.

4. The problems Community Boards face is not their representative goals, but the processes by which

they must work. Getting rid of the Community Boards does not remove that issue which all boards face. It

is up to the council to work within their own structure to make processes streamlined and more time

effective.

5. The proposal undermines democratic right to vote for our representatives. This is a step backwards for

democracy.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. The Community Board understands the specific and unique

needs of our community well because the members are part of the community. The proposed Community

Committee's responsibilities would cover a larger and broader area and would not have the focus

necessary to adequately service the unique needs of our community.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I support democratic method of

representation for both Government and Local Government. If an appointed Community Committee

replace democratically elected Community Boards an erosion of the democratic process occurs with the

outcome that special interest groups will have to gain more influence over the decision making process.

Not Support - Unknown. This back door entry for people of many ethnic groups. Going to add more costs

to ratepayers in wages - transportation and meeting allowances.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. 1. It is not democratic 2. Retain the current Community Board

System 3. All Community Board "Workshop" meetings to be open.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. The Te Puke Community Board does not support that

disestablishment of Community Boards. It believes that residents living within the old Te Puke Ward

boundaries have been well served by successive Community Boards since their establishment in 1989.

67% of residents in the Te Puke/Maketu Ward are represented by a Community Board. The remaining

33% are almost entirely represented by two alternative Community Committees, the Pukehina

Ratepayers Assn. and the Paengaroa Community Association. The two Community Boards and the two

alternative committees have excellent channels of communication through to the Western Bay of Plenty

District Council and in their own way they have all represented their residents well. The Community

Board formal meeting procedure also serves as an excellent pathway for members who wish to further

their local body career at the Councillor level. This would not be true with an informal and casual

Community Committee structure. Currently the Te Puke Board is represented on seven community

organisations within Te Puke.

Democracy is about free and open elections and does not set down particular skill sets for those who put

their name forward for election; neither does it guarantee that the community will be equally represented

as a result of an election. In our view the 'targeted recruitment' or shoulder tapping as some would call it

should happen before a local body/Community Board election. People who hold what some may

consider to be the desirable skill sets should be encouraged to put their name forward for election; but

the people decide through the election process who represents the, not a system of appointed

representation.

The Te Puke Community Board supports the status quo in the Te Puke/Maketu Ward and believes that

instead of trying to disestablish Community Boards the Western Bay District Council should be looking to

strengthen them through the divesting of selected responsibilities and functions that pertain to their

particular community. When Council signalled its intention to review Community Boards some time ago it

was assumed by many it was to strengthen them and give them greater responsibilities not disestablish

them and replace them with unelected as required when required Community Committees.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Do not agree with your proposal to change from Comm Boards

to Comm Committees. We find the status quo provides a listening ear.

Support - Representation still needs to be democratic so that there are checks and balances for decision

making in Western Bay.

Support. Greater equity of representation, voice and funding to all residents of the area. The existing

system disenfranchises those living in rural communities, while giving greater power to the urban

residents.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Elected members for Community

Boards is a fair and democratic way in which to have community representation. THe CB members are to

take our voice directly to Council, and they do. We want out monies to be spent in our communities the

way we want. If Council wants this system improved then they should be sending staff to be working

more closely with the CB's, working to provide more information to the CB's and listening to the

recommendations that the CB's have for their area. We want election, NOT selection.

Support. Changing the Community Board system to a Community Committee system is inclusive to all

residents in the wards. Membership being made of two or three Council representatives and 3

community members elected by the public. Meetings less formal and each monthly meeting focussing on

a main subject eg August - Roading, September - Reserves, October - Planning etc publicly notified to

give people in the community who have specific interests an opportunity to attend and take part.

Support. I was previously on the Omokoroa Community Board for 6 years from 2010 to 2016 and was

Chairman for the last 3 years.

Pros: Democratically elected representatives.

Council secretarial support.

Councillors (2) appointed to the Board.

A good report and working relationship established between Board members and key Council staff.

Easy access by public to Board members who lived in the area and were well known in the district.

Cons - Community Boards:

Bureaucratic - inflexible

Board election for a 3 year term.

Difficulty in obtaining candidates to be Board members.

Election not required last few years as only required number stood.

Community Boards only represent 58% of WBOPDC population and just cover 5 defined areas.

In general I think the Omokoroa Community Board was successful and was a good advocate for the

community but constrained by bureaucracy and legislation.

A lot more detail on how the proposed community committees would work needs to be brought to the

table. The Kaimai Ward is a large area covering Omokoroa, Whakamarama, Te Puna-Minden, Lower

Kaimai-Omanawa, Ohauiti-Oropi, Pyes Pa and maybe some of Tauriko. (Omokoroa is becoming

predominantly urban whereas the other areas are in general rural).

Instead of just one community committee covering the whole Kaimai Ward where a member of one area

would not be totally aware of or understand the issues confronting another area in the Ward I favour say

6 community committees reporting to the Ward Councillors. This would ensure wide community

representation. This may seem a bit unwieldy but worth consideration even if some of the committees

are amalgamated and therefore reduced. Community Committees must also have access to key Council

staff. On balance I prefer the Community Committee model to enable flexibility, less formality and no

legislative constraints subject to further investigation and public review. The Committees need to be

community led and not Council controlled.

Support. I disagree with a community board as they are not taking note of what is going on in the beach.

You ask for things to be fixed or done and nothing happens.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Members should always be elected.

Not enough details on remuneration package for Community Boards. If the elected member is elected

what code of conduct processes/policy are they subject to comply with?

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. We are appalled at Western Bay

Council decision to scrap Community Boards. We are opposed to this. The Community Board have their

fingers on the pulse of Omokoroa Community. It is not Democratic. It is a step back for democracy. Every

one should earn their place by a vote.

It will further serve to diminish Waihi Beach's voice in Council affairs. It will end up with the Council

dealing only with their own appointee selected by the Council in a "you catch my back and I'll scratch

yours" situation.Support. Community Boards are now out of date/ The general public cannot have any right of reply to

any comments made by Councillors, Board Members or Council Staff during the meeting. If the

Community Committees go ahead, we would then be in the very large Kaimai Ward, and I would request

that Omokoroa has a sub-committee with a Chairperson reporting back to the Community Voard so our

voice is heard.

Support. The current Community Board system is grossly inequitable and leaves over 50% of ratepayer

unrepresented at the Council table. Whakamarama, Te Puna, Plummers Point communities are all

unrepresented, yet Omokoroa, which is smaller than the surrounding unrepresented communities, has a

voice through a Community Board. I support the Council's aim to create opportunities for broader

representation at a local level, to enable residents and ratepayers to have a greater voice and play a key

partnership role with Council. Community Committee structure will provide for local representation across

the entire District and representatives will be drawn from communities of interest that have been

identified through community feedback. This is a much more equitable system.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Unclear as to why Council wishes to change the current

structure, what is the problem. Maketu is a small coastal community, now you want us to blend in with Te

Puke, a far larger inland community with different issues. So unless you can come up with a good

reason, I canno see that the change should be made. So please leave well alone.

Why would you want to change this to an undemocratic option?

I am undecided. Council needs to clarify how committee would be elected.

We would like Maketu representation from our local people to make decisions on behalf of our

community.

We want our own people from Maketu.

Simply because we need to decide who represents us. Locals who know the needs of our area. Certainly

not people elected by Council and who do not live in the area or know the needs of the community.

Maketu is capable of making decisions for its own community.

Why would I choose to disenfranchise myself and have my elected community board representation

replaced by an insider trading selected community committee. Albeit my responsibility to vote for a

candidate capable of representing our community.

Maketu and Te Puke are two different places so you can only have a separate board member for two

different areas.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Hopefully you are listening to us when we say we disagree

with dissolving the Maketu Community Board.

WBOP District Council should leave it the way it is. Why do you always want to do it your way?

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. To replace people with someone who

is appointed is just wrong. It would further lead to Maketu ratepayers subsidising other WBOP regions

more.

a responsibility and obligation to fulfil their role to their own and the community's greater satisfaction.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Very happy with our Community Board members.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I prefer to have my vote for someone

at Waihi Beach. Not someone appointed by the Council representatives.

Support. I agree with abolition of Community Boards and replacement with three wards with

representatives appointed to ensure coverage of all sectors in community. Rural ratepayers outside

represented Committee areas should have same voice as people living in these Board areas. It is

recognised many rural ratepayers are substantially burdened with disproportional costs, to the benefits

received. These rural ratepayers have less influence than those within present Community Board

represented areas. The Treaty of Waitangi and ongoing settlements has resulted in Court provisional

settlements, which involves the need for community understanding of ensuring the voice of Maori tribal

litigants voice is considered if we wish to see the advantages of moving forward together.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Nominated members might have skills

but attitudes might not reflect the community. Will be chosen from central and not community. Could lead

to bias that doesn't represent the people. By-election costs can be minimised by appointment till next

election. The community election system allows people who are interested to be elected. I would be

concerned that appointments to be forgetted for Councils needs, not best present the community and the

people.Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Community Board represents a local community. Easier to

attend local meetings.

Support. As you know I/we have started a WB Residents and Ratepayers Assoc. We want to work with

WBOP in a positive and collaborative way. The current system with the CB is not really working.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I disagree with the proposed change to Community committees

instead of Community Boards because of the apathy of 90% of the people in our community. It is like

pulling teeth getting volunteers to put their hands up to be on the committee. This happens all the time in

local communities (other than our emergency services). It's the same OLD same OLD volunteers that

come forward for any local projects e.g. trying to set up our local Community Repsonse team. Vote your

local Community Board to get people who care democratically.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I am opposed to the disestablishment of Community Boards.

These Boards have a strong foundation of clear structure as laid out in the act and are a strong form of

community representation. They are formally democratically elected by the people who belong to interest

groups or groups of interest. To say that Community Boards don't represent/support a large number of

people outside of their boundary is not the case. Katikati and Waihi Beach Community Boards do

combine at times and there have been instances of support for organisations across the border. I wish to

see Council retain all five existing Community Boards in the district and even add more where the

community clearly wants one, or ask them to create a committee when needed. Keep all five Community

Boards, give them more authority/delegations, follow the TCDC style of system, or that of Wanaka that

by memory, is also very effective. Keep Waihi Beach Community Board.

Support. More effective way of enhancing inclusive community leadership. If committees are well

selected by Council a more diverse participation in Local Government will result.

Support. I support the change from Community Boards to Community Committees.

1. Less expense in setting up committees and other ongoing costs. E.g. Elections for CBs.

2. More diverse representatives ethnically on committees.

3. Consequently above more diverse input of ideas from different members of the community eg. Indian,

Chinese, Maori, Pacific, European etc.

4. Past and present Community Boards can be more effective in serving the varied communities we

have.

5. Reduction in organisation representing communities means reduction in expenses and costs.Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I do not want Community Boards abolished. The public have a

right to a democratic vote.

Support. For the affirmative, if it means more efficiency in getting things done without the procedural

'bump' then I'm for it. Progress on some projects has been agonisingly slow. Against, I wonder if the new

structure would mean that events would be driven by Council rather than originating from the grass roots

community level. Perhaps the Community Board (Elected) should remain with their powers, structures

and decision making altered to meet the demands of today's society.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. This is a nonsense - it is a step

backwards and is totally undemocratic.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. We must look to better democratic examples like Thames,

Coromandel District Council, who had a hard look at their operation, adopted private enterprise

expenditure to local people elected a new mayor and new Councillors and as a result made big

improvements in performance and held their rates for 6 years. Prior to 1989, local communities worked

well. Since 1989 Community Boards limited function rendered them almost impotent. Improve methods,

give community boards more local control and save money. Elections equal democracy.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. We fully support community boards. Community Board

members live in the ward, stand for office. Ratepayers know them and who they are voting for.

Community Board members become identifiable and approachable to ratepayers. Ratepayers should

have the right to democratically elect their community board members. Community board meetings are

open to the public.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. We should by right have also a

democratically locally elected group of citizens to reflect , support and project our ideas and requirements

to the local government. The idea of removing the town councils is the very worst idea this local body

has ever made.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I am reluctant to give the Mayor more

rights to appoint for a special purpose. That should come as volunteers from the elected by the

communities.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I feel as though the community should

be able to elect who they want to be on the board and not have Council to it. Needs can differ quickly

from place to place therefore having less election boards (3 rather than 5) is a bad idea.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. The Maketu Community Board strongly disagrees with any

change to the current system to replace community boards with Community Committees. The community

board works under a democratic system that allows anyone to put their name forward and stand to be

elected for the board. This also allows the Maketu community to vote on who they think would be best

represent them on Council and community matters. Self-appointing or shoulder tapping is not the ideal

situation to appoint good representative as this allows people to be biased or have their own agenda.

The Community Boards have worked extremely well over the many years with strong leadership and

good representation for the community they stand for. They are the vital link between the community and

the Council. The Community Boards are unbiased and do an extremely good job of identifying the needs

and wants of its community, quite often being the first point of call, live locally and are involved in the

community.

How can it be democratic to replace elected representatives with appointees? This could lead to

cronyism, nepotism and corruption. It is wrong in principle.

Leave the existing arrangements as they are. Must be able to vote people into office and have them

represent us. Democracy has a long and proud tradition in NZ, long may it continue.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards but established to coincide with the ward boundaries (ie reduce

to three). Each should have 5-6 members depending on how the +/- 10% rule works out based on

identified areas of interest plus one appointed Maori representative.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Three Local Ward Boards:

A "subdivision" within each Ward of 3,000 per resident to ensure representation within a Local Ward

Board area to represent their "Community Board". A "subdivision" will require slight boundary changes

from those considered in the 2012 Representation Review and would ensure all residents and

ratepayers will have voting rights.

9000 = 3 representatives Te Puke Urban, 3000 = 1 Representative Maketu/Pukehina and wider area,

6000 = 2 Representatives Pongakawa/Paengaroa/Otamarakau.

The same "Subdivision' calculation to be applied to both the Kaimai and Katikati-Waihi Wards.

Local Ward Board appointees can be identified with the same time and energy Council is suggesting for

"Community Committee's", to recruit prior to Elections and voted by all residents and ratepayers from

their "Communities of Interest".Support. The current Community Board system is grossly inequitable and leaves around 70% of

ratepayers unrepresented at the Council table. For example, Whakamarama, Te Puna, Plummers Point

communities are all unrepresented, yet Omokoroa, which is smaller than the surrounding unrepresented

communities, has a voice through a Community Board. Our organisation represents over 600 families

living in the rateable district surrounding the Whakamarama Hall. We are elected annually by those

attending our AGM.

We support the Council's aim to create opportunities for broader representation at a local level, to enable

residents and ratepayers to have a greater voice and play a key partnership role with Council.

The proposed Community Committee structure will provide for local representation across the entire

District and representatives will be drawn from communities of interest that have been identified through

community feedback. This is a much more equitable system. It will also enable broader understanding

across the whole committee area so individual communities can operate as part of a larger group of

interest. We agree with committee representatives being selected from communities rather than running

costly elections which have historically had low voter turnout. The community has a better chance of

selecting the skill set that they wish to have representing them. We also support their greater potential to

work collaboratively with, and utilise the skills and experience of, community groups and associations

such as Whakamarama Community Inc.

The proposed committee system has the potential to be more direct, informal, inclusive and truly

democratic, representing the whole population of the district.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Representative - Community Boards. No to a change to the

way we elect our Community Board committees. No to appointing a committee by Council it is removing

the people's Democratic rights. We do not need the Community Boards removed, we need them to be

expanded. The Council should could extend more power to the Wards and Community Boards so as

each Ward can begin to operate independently like the old Bourough Councils did.

Support. As a long-standing believer in the worthwhileness of voting, it is a struggle for me to

acknowledge the evident and equally long-standing decline. This takes nothing away from those

communities who have found strength and meaning in electing Community Boards, and I hope that,

where that energy is present, they might be kept in place. Elsewhere, however, it is sadly evident that the

democratic process tends to re-lodge decision making power in entrenched areas of social and economic

status: well-intentioned, well-to-do people whose life experience is significantly different from those who

do not vote.

Support. The current community board structure is unfair and undemocratic - it gives those with a

community board in their area especially Omokoroa and Katikati/Waihi, far more say and representation

than those of us without - e.g. Te Puna/Whakamarama. This has been readily apparent in the ongoing

issue of SH2 - those of us living in the Te Puna/WHakamarama, who are majorly affected by any roading

changes, have had no particular local voice while Omokoroa has dominated with its thoughts. The

Kaimai Ward is too broad to represent us fairly in comparison. The community boards thus over

represent some communities and under represent others- unfair and undemocratic. A community

committee is likely to provide much more balanced representation.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. The proposed change is anti

democratic. We do not trust Councillors to select people that will represent the majority of the electorate.

It is better to have a large number of the electorate who are independent selecting their representatives

rather than a small number who can be influenced by bureaucrates.

Need to be local reps on council.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I feel there is a real danger for local

interest, concerns and issues to be hi-jacked by a group of persons from an 'interest group'. Stick to the

democratic process, and fair representation. Whilst some in the community are apathetic to what is

happening around them, those who have the genuine concerns of the community at heart, and offer

themselves to represent the community should be applauded and elected on merit.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. No I don't agree, it takes the

ratepayers democratic rights away to elect who they believe should be part of the decision making within

our communities. It is not fair to have committees appointed by the decisions makers.

Not Support - Unknown. Do not feel that someone who does not 'feel' for the Maketu Community should

represent us.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I find the local community boards work well on many different

levels, as they represent our local people, environment and conditions. The can represent us against

Council's mischievous endeavours and "good ideas" that are not so good. They are elected by us for us.

Boards should not be there to represent all of Council's views.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. We need to have our own say to our

own Council representatives not people that don't live in our community and know nothing about us.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I believe democratically elected

representation to be vital to our community. This is one avenue all residents have for their voices to be

heard. Representatives are entrusted with considering and forwarding the views of constituents in an

unbiased and fair manner. While communities of interest have merit, if appointed by Council, they will

quite likely reflect the views of Council. I have engaged with a Council in a "Community of Interest" type

forum, SWAT (Storm Water Action Team). This was initiated by a committed group of local residents, not

appointed by Council. Throughout this process, the group actively engaged with Council in a

collaborative manner while also consulting with the Community Board. While it is still work in progress,

much of the outcome has been positive. "Communities of Interest" can work alongside Community

Boards to further the needs of the Community.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I would like this representation to be

chosen by the community, not appointed by Council. Then this is a true democratic system.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. 1. Community Boards are democratically elected by people

within the community to best represent the area. 2. There is a public choice of who to be elected.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Do not try to fix something that is not broken. The present

system of Community Boards work well.

Removes the ratepayers' right to democratically elect community board members.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. If Council did not respect an 80% No vote in respect to the

'Library' it is clear Council appointed ' Community Committees' are not to be trusted. We will keep our

vote and our Community Board.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I believe that we should continued to be represented by elected

Community Boards.

Not Support - Unknown. being represented by a committee of people that may not even live in the local

community is not good for the local community. Trying to get a single group to reflect the very different

community values of Waihi Beach/Katikati and TePuke/Maketu would be very difficult. A committee

member living in Katikati may not be as supportive for Waihi Beach etc. There seems to be nothing to

stop an elected member from Kaimai being on the committee for Te Puke/Maketu.

Not Support - Unknown, No formal notice or advice from WBOPDC. The proposal is not adequately

detailed; thus no point in moving away from Community Board representation.

I can't see that the proposed committee can truly represent the community if the Council makes the

appointments. If the roles and responsibilities are determined by the Council how can that be true

representation of the community?Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Because it hands over power to the

Council to appoint whomever they wish, and opens up the process to favouritism of people who will

follow the Council's views, and those of the Council employees. It is top down, not bottom up, anti

democratic, and therefore capable of being manipulated to suit the views of certain individuals with their

own personal agenda. If our local community is to be truly represented, those doing so should be voted

for by us, and be local. The existing system works reasonably well, we know who our representatives

are, and we have free access to them, and they listen.

Support. We believe that community diversity would be better represented with community committees,

opening up fairer representation for the majority in opposition to minority representation of the community

boards (current model) with limited geographic outreach. Ward community committees with a more

diverse range of views will acheive a collaborative approach to community interests.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Boundary changes affect loyalties. A resident may support the

work being done in that area. When you change, it becomes a voluntary support as rates is now going

into the new boundary. One rep does not have a chance to stand when we are a poorer community.

Areas with higher Maori population gets less of a say and even less of infrastructure work put into those

areas, even though we pay rates. I am not against finding better ways but I do not agree this is better for

Maketu.

Not Support - Unknown. Replace the current five elected Community Boards (Waihi Beach, Katikati,

Omokoroa, Te Puke and Maketu) with three elected Local Ward Boards. The three elected Local Ward

Boards structure will align with the Three Wards Councillors currently represent in the Western Bay

Council and ensure "Communities of interest" be represented. Retain Councillors appointed from

Council, as currently on Community Boards, on Local Ward Boards, retaining a formal link between

Council and the community to exchange information, opinions, proposals, recommendations and

decisions. Elected Local Ward Board representatives, as compared to nominated on Committee

Committees. Communities of Interest due to the different characteristics from within each Ward, as

suggested for "Community Committee's", the time and energy Council is suggesting, can be adopted

prior to Elections to recruit, by encouraging those from each Ward "Communities of Interest" to stand for

Local Ward Boards. Appropriate skills, expertise and passion from within "Communities of Interest", by

utilising local knowledge and experience, with a mix of representatives from across the Wards to enable

residents and ratepayers to have a voice by "voting" representation at a local level. The boundary

adjustment would Quote: "allow residents and ratepayers to have a greater voice in determining the

needs of their community and assist Council in its responsibly to the community."

Remunerated with a modest salary as compensation gives value, as compared to "Community

Committee's" time, Quote: "Volunteering' to undertake a public duty".

Three Local Ward Boards: A "subdivision" within each Ward of 3,000 per resident to ensure

representation within a Local Ward Board area to represent their "Communities of Interest". This would

cover areas that are not currently represented by a "Community Board". A "subdivision" will require slight

boundary changes from those considered in the 2012 Representation Review and would ensure all

residents and ratepayers will have voting rights.

Example Maketu-Te Puke 9000 = 3 Representatives Te Puke, 3000 = 1 Representative

Maketu/Pukehina, 6000 = 2 Representatives Pongakawa/Paengaroa/Otamarakau.

The same "subdivision" calculation to be applied to both the Kaimai and Katikati-Waihi Wards.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Community Committees do not work, all the work for no pay.

We want democracy and Community Boards. There is too many other organisations in our town trying to

take place of Community Boards.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Recent surrendering had won democratic rights on spurious

grounds. May indeed result in 'inconsistent' performance' across community boards but they are our

community boards.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I want to have a say as to who

represents my ward.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I would like more public say at Community Board meetings.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. There is nothing wrong with the current situation.

Not Support - Unknown. Councillors who are critical of Council decisions can be simply left off the

committee. This is not democratic.

Not Support - Unknown. I disagree because the 'dictatorship' of the present council needs stamping out.

Future power does not need to be increased.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Residents living within the old Te Puke Ward boundaries have

been well served by successive community boards since their establishment in 1989. 67% of residents in

Te Puke/Maketu Ward have been represented by a community board. The remaining 33% are almost

entirely represented by two alternative community committees, the Pukehina Ratepayers Assn. and the

Paengaroa Community Association.

It is argued there are residents in the Te Puke/Maketu Ward not represent by a Community Board this

argument has no substance. I live outside of the Te Puke Community Board catchment but have served

on the Te Puke Community Board for eleven years. You do not need to live within the catchment of a

community board to be a part of the "Community Board culture".

I do not see the formality of the Community Board structure and procedure to be a bad thing. Being a

public entity is important that residents have access to upcoming meeting agendas so, if they wish, they

can speak to an agenda item in public forum. The formality of the meeting creates a degree of stability

and certainty that is far more preferable than a casual more laid back approach that is advocated by the

community committee approach.

One of the roles of a Community Board is to be aware of the needs of their respective community. The

Te Puke Community Board has always assigned elected members to different community groups within

the Te Puke Community and is currently represented on seven community organisations within Te Puke.

Community Boards do not operate independently of other community organisations and in my experience

have always been sensitive and responsive to the needs of their community.

I do not support "shoulder tapping" or target recruiting. Local government democracy is about free and

open elections and the time for targeted recruitment is before the election, not after. It is the people who

decide through the election process who represents them.

I support the status quo in the Te Puke/Maketu Ward and believe that instead of trying to disestablish

community boards the Western Bay District Council should be looking to strengthen them through the

divesting of selected responsibilites and functions that pertain to their particular community.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Will not encourage community leadership, will not support

strong community relationships, will not enable community informed decision making, and will not build

community capacity and networks.

Council should reinstate the Maketu ward and enlarge the scope of the Maketu community board to take

in all the communities in the ward.

Community boards, community associations and ratepayer associations report directly to Council. Under

the proposal these community groups will report to the community committees creating another level of

bureaucracy.

Maketu community board has been and is a strong performer. The future of the board is to be decided by

the views of Te Puke, Paengaroa, Pukehina and indeed the entire Western Bay. The Maketu board is

strongly supported by the local community and to have its future decided in this way is grossly unfair.

Maketu is a unique community with a large Maori population. The iwi (tribe) is Te Arawa with up to 5

hapu (Sub tribes). These hapu own and control much of the land in and around Maketu. One of the key

roles of the community board is to liaise with these hapu to achieve desired outcomes for the community

and Council. To lose this would be a great loss to Maketu and Council.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Flaws with the community board structure could be improved

and/or fixed rather than scrapping it. Take the advantages of the community model and merge them with

what works from the Community Board model. Waihi Beach should get to choose their representation.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. We do not have a community Councillor at Waihi Beach so

our local community board is most important to us.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Proposed change from Community

Boards to Community Committees is contrary to democratic process. I cannot see how the so called

committees of interest will be identified.

We should stick with Community Boards until we know of a better alternative. We have not been told

where or when committees will meet and what powers they have. It seems the change proposed is to

save money and increase the powers of the Mayor and Councillors.

Not Support - Unknown. No accountable.

Not Support - Unknown. As we have no domiciled Councillors now at least there will be a better chance

of getting local support than under the new proposal.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Due to distinct differences and needs of the communities keep

community boards as are. Due to geographical and population difference the more ground roots

representation of community boars with accessibility to members and meetings the more successful.

We need free representation from people who live in our community and understand needs for a small

beach community.

It is most important that democracy is enduring. I also believe it is important that within reason

communities of interest are given separate representation.

Where is democracy? Give us back Te Puke Borough Council.

Support. Community Committee representatives will be appointed by Council from a pool of candidates

who put their name forward and as such there is no requirement for an election for these

representatives. We have found that the election of the Community Board representatives has not

delivered a diversity of membership that reflects the communities that the Boards serve and that the

proposed Community Committees provide an opportunity to see diversity in representation. We hope

that Council will adopt a selection process that gives effect to the opportunity for greater diversity of

representation on the Community Committees.

Community Committee approach looks to provide opportunities for greater collaboration between Council

and the community as the work programme for the Committees is tied to the needs of the community.

This approach would seem very similar to the operation of the Partnership Forum, where Council works

collaboratively with Iwi and Hapu to address their needs as identified in Te Ara Mua. We are of the view

that this approach has provided us with many opportunities to progress Kaupapa Maori and support

similar approaches being adopted across Council business.

The Community Committee approach looks to be more flexible in the sense that their operation will be

governed by a terms of reference rather than legislative requirements (which govern the Community

Board). This will allow the Community Committee to be more responsive to the changing needs of its

community and to be responsive to the work that it sets for itself. This flexibility will include the ability to

establish sub committees, engage people or groups with particular skill sets who can establish

relationships that will assist the community committee to meet the changing needs of its community.

We hope that in the development of the terms of reference for the community committees, the

importance of the Treaty of Waitangi and Maori engagement is included so that Councils work in this

area is able to be carried on at the community level.

Our view is that the election of Councillors and the mayor still provides ample opportunity for a

democratic election process and that the approach of non elected community committees provide greater

scope for diversity, for inclusion and the ability to meet the ever changing challenges of our communities.

Support. Fairer representation to get overall input into District planning. By advertising for community to

apply and then a process for selecting fair representation for the community. Works really well for DHB

Appointed committees not elected community board representation would be less independent of

council's potential impositions.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. The Maketu Community Board has been representing our

community long enough now to show that it can and does do a very good job. I don't see changing is

going to do a better job for our local community.

Like it as it is.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. The community boards should stay. Appointed representation

could be a disaster; lack of local knowledge and the requirements, wishes and aspirations of the

townsfolk. But the most glaring mistake in this proposal is the undermining of democracy. Retain the

status quo.

Support. As a previous Community Board member the process and the length of time it took to get

anything done frustrated me. I don't feel the community were best served by this process and with

modern communication the current process, which was established in 1989, is past its used by date.

We need a process that is more flexible, and will serve the people in a modern age. I don't believe that

democracy will be comprised by this new process as only about 33% of people bother to vote, what

about the other 67%. They would get better local representation by having the community selecting the

people they need.

I would prefer to see the Community Committee be selected by the community they come from and not

appointed by Council. A meeting allowance should be paid to the members and possibly mileage, but this

would need to be worked out by each community. The current CB rate could be used for this.

If Council goes down the Community Committee path then each area should be allocated money to

enable to community to complete projects that may not meet Council's criteria.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. The reasons I disagree with the

proposal are as follows 1. The proposal removes the degree of democratic process that is currently in

place for selecting our representatives. 2. Waihi BEach is a unique community with unique challenges,

and our interests are not being served well by being lumped in with Katikati. 3. In general terms, the

community of Waihi Beach has more in common with the Hauraki DC and the town of Waihi than the

WBOPDC/Katikati/Tauranga communities. Our concern is that under the Council proposal, the interests

of Waihi Beach residents would be further reduced from what we have currently.

Not Support - Unknown. Our Community Board serves this area well and is most appropriate for this

community. It is good that the system demands periodical reviews that allows for changes, however this

seems to be promoted as a change for changes sake rather than being positive or a need for this

community. Proposed changes diminishes our demographic right to elect representatives. Several of the

purported advantages listed should already be occurring with a well functioning committee. Some

expected benefits could be achieved with minor tweaks to the current system. Also this yes/no option

does not seem to have the capability to accomodate any modifications.

Support. The real question for me is do we want wide and inclusive representation at the grassroots level

of our WBOPDC communities, or do we continue on with what we have had since 1989, often referred to

as 'democracy'? My concerns about the current system are: The very formal nature of elections and

meetings make people frightened or feel they aren't qualified to participate, so they don't. The time

commitments mean only well heeled older people with a secure income and time on their hands stand for

election, mostly older pakeha men. The Community Boards have struggled to connect in a meaningful

way with their wider communities in the 4 years I have been on the Katikati Community Board. The

current system has not given WBOPDC communities representation that reflects the diversity in our

communities, there have been no representatives from our Maori, Indian, or Pacific communities who

make up 30+%, there have been no youth representatives, there have been very few.

Support. From the reading I've done and the comments I've heard ot seems a better way to include all

the people in the Western Bay Council region in a more localised forum. I recommend that there would

be a member of the community committees elected from each area of the ward at the local body

elections. For example in the Katikati - Waihi Beach ward there could be 1 from Waihi Beach, 1 from

Katikati and 1 to represent the rural area. That way democracy is seen to be alive at all levels of the

governing process and because the local representatives should be in touch with their area people other

local speaclists in specific areas could be coopted for special projects.

Not Support - Unknown. Terms of Reference of the proposed Community Committees has not been

provided I feel I cannot endorse them without. Council needs to seriously consider: Achieving fair

representation of Maori and 'Communities of Interest' is a serious challenge and duplication of existing

'community structure'/ There are numerous 'Communities of Interest' that are important to local

government decision making e.g. Geographical, social sector, environmental sector, older people, youth,

rural, urban, not for profit sector, etc.

Not Support - Unknown. Those who will represent our concerns and needs must be of our area.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I totally oppose the Council appointing

representatives. The attempt to override public input on the recent Maori representation vote is just one

example/ Claims that the new Library Hub was the wish of the majority is another example. Most people

came to Katikati to get away from Auckland style town centres and bureaucracy of the style of Western

Bay is trying to impose undemocratically.

Not Support - Unknown. We need someone from the Community to speak for us. Local representation,

not your elected do what you say people.

Not Support - Unknown. Waihi Beach residents need their own direct voice. Representation via

Katikati/Matakana is watered down with the focus primarily on Katikati. The towns are quite different -

their communities are different and their needs are quite different. Katikati is a horticultural town and

Waihi Beach is a beach resort town - their requirements are so different like day and night and need to

be treated accordingly. Worst case keep the community boards and give them more power to make local

decisions. Best case give us our own Councillor to represent us directly not tagged in with Katikati.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I do not agree with the proposed local representation changing

from community boards to community committees. "Rural residents and smaller communities are largely

excluded" - Community Boards do not exclude these. "Challenges filling positions" - could happen under

any system. "Board communication and engagement processes have at times replicated Council

initiatives" - when Waihi Beach led an engagement exercise "What do you want Waihi Beach" it was to

give the Board direction for our own long term plans.

Two totally different communities.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Concern that 5 community boards will

be replaced by 3 community committees - further dilution of elected representation. Erosion of

democracy because no elected representatives to represent towns in the Western Bay of Plenty District

area. Utilisation of knowledge and experience on local issues best done by people who live here.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Keep our community boards and they should be selected from

Waihi Beach residents.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Prefer representatives elected and

people who know and belong to our Waihi Beach community.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. Undemocratic. Terms of reference too

loose. Lack of safeguards in selection process. A communication system that relies on the effective use

of technology disenfranchises several sections of the community - the elderly, disabled and poor.




Not Support - Unknown. I support a representation review, however the current model while not perfect I

believe is enabling opportunity for the Communities to have their say.

Questions raised regarding the democratic process and how that may look having appointed members. A

broader approach to representation may have less local interest. While representation needs to evolve

this suggested model may be premature.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Loss of democracy.. Waihi Beach and Maketu should have

their own wards. Ie. Return to 5 wards. Community Boards are essential. Give them more power to be

effective and save money.

Support. It seems as though this proposal is for the best and that the future and for the whole

community.

Not Support - Unknown. Local representation proposed has raised major democratic concerns among

the Katikati residents.

I agree that the current Community Boards are not as effective as they would hope to be. The skill set of

those that put themselves forward for election, may not be appropriate to the job they have been elected

to.

I am all for changes if they will improve the process and outcomes within the communities they will affect.

I believe the proposed change from 5 elected Community Boards to 3 appointed Community Committees

will dilute community voice and accessibility to representatives in those communities that currently have

Community Boards. Why not 5 Community Committees, 2 more (to cover areas that don't have

representation now). Stronger Community Voice for all.)

Community Representation needs greater Financial Allocation to support their goals.

The Proposed Appointment Procedure is not Democracy: Nominations from the community for the

Community Committee is a preferred process. Communities are aware of those most appropriate and

can nominate accordingly the best candidates and skill set for the representative role.

Selection of those nominated must be open and transparent, with selection from the community and

Community Committees must Not be appointed by the Council.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. Want to keep it as it is.

Not Support - Non Elected Community Committee Appointments. I cannot see a compelling reason for

change. I do not want to give up my right to elected representation. I do not want to see governance

move to a more autocratic model.

Not Support - Retain Community Boards. I agree to leave Maketu community managed by their own

board and surrounding areas.
