HAWKE’S BAY REGIONAL COUNCIL

Wednesday 15 April 2020

Subject: Confirmation of Decision

Reason for Report

1.      This item seeks confirmation of the 8 April 2020 decision on Environmental Certificates of Appreciation which would normally have been recommended by the Environment and Integrated Catchments Committee.

Officers’ Recommendation

2.      Council officers recommend that unless new contrary information has come to light since 8 April, the Council confirms the resolutions made on that day.

Decision Making Process

3.      Council and its committees are required to make every decision in accordance with the requirements of the Local Government Act 2002 (the Act). Staff have assessed the requirements in relation to this item and have concluded:

3.1.      The decision does not significantly alter the service provision or affect a strategic asset.

3.2.      The use of the special consultative procedure is not prescribed by legislation.

3.3.      The decision is not significant under the criteria contained in Council’s adopted Significance and Engagement Policy.

3.4.      The decision is not inconsistent with an existing policy or plan.

Recommendations

That Hawke’s Bay Regional Council:

1.      Agrees that the decisions to be made are not significant under the criteria contained in Council’s adopted Significance and Engagement Policy, and that Council can exercise its discretion and make decisions on this issue without conferring directly with the community or persons likely to have an interest in the decision.

2.      Confirms the reintroduction of Certificates of Appreciation being awarded annually, in the three categories of:

2.1.        Environmental Leadership in Business – Te Hautūtanga Taiao me te Pakihi: Recognises business or local authorities that demonstrate kaitiakitanga, innovation or efficiency, or an ongoing commitment to environmental best practice.

2.2.      Environmental Leadership in Land Management – Te Hautūtanga Taiao me te Whakahaere Whenua: Recognises land users who are committed to environmental stewardship and sustainability in their meat, fibre, forestry or other land use operations.

2.3.      Environmental Action in the Community – Te Oho Mauri Taiao ki te Hapori: Recognises not-for-profit organisations or individuals that are taking action to protect or enhance the environment, or are increasing understanding of environmental issues.
