3. These pathways, however,
are not currently ‘adaptive’. They are simply a series of
steps over time with no method for responding to real world conditions and the
uncertain effects of climate change.
4. In order for the pathways
to be adaptive, tools are needed to drive decision making on when (and under
what conditions) the next step in the pathway is implemented, or an alternative
approach determined. These tools are known as signals, triggers and adaptation
thresholds.
4.1. Signals are early warnings of
change.
4.2. Triggers are a decision point(s)
that have been identified to allow sufficient time to make a decision and take
action prior to an adaptation threshold being reached.
4.3. Adaptation thresholds describe a situation where
performance measures are no longer being met or start to fail, resulting in an
outcome(s) that the community do not want.
5. It was a deliberate
decision made during the panel process to defer the development of signals,
triggers and adaptation thresholds to later in the Strategy development
process. This decision was made because:
5.1. it was determined that
pathways could be readily defined without them
5.2. there was no guidance
available at that time on how to develop them, and
5.3. the collaborative process
had already been very time and resource intensive without adding further tasks.
6. The Signals and Triggers
workstream commenced last year and has been working to ‘backfill’
this gap in the Strategy by developing signals, triggers and adaptation thresholds
for the recommended pathways.
7. Usefully, in 2020, guidance
was developed by the Deep South National Science Challenge[1] that assists this
process. The guidance identifies a series of 13 steps from identifying signals
and triggers through to monitoring and review. It recommends starting with
defining adaptation thresholds, and then working to identify signals and
triggers that will inform decision makers that conditions are changing and
guide actions to ensure that adaptation thresholds are not reached.
8. Figure 1 following is from
this guidance material, and provides a summary of how signals, triggers and
adaption thresholds work together.
Figure 1: Signals, Triggers and Thresholds. Source: Deep
South Challenge.
Development Approach
9. Work under the Signals and
Triggers workstream began in 2021.
10. The project commenced with
reviewing literature and looking for case studies and practice examples. This
work has been reported in Supporting Adaptation using Signals, Triggers and
Adaptation Thresholds (STATs): a brief review, Coastal Management
Collective, May 2021.
11. Key findings of this work
identified that it was important to ensure that signals, triggers and
adaptation thresholds are community-driven, that there is alignment with
existing monitoring and evaluation activities or that they can be readily
integrated into those activities, and a robust, pragmatic and flexible
monitoring, evaluation, reporting and learning plan is developed to track
progress.
12. It was also found that
there are no published examples of signals triggers and thresholds as envisaged
by the 2017 MfE guidance, however the use of trigger points is not new, and
examples of their use were found in various national and international
settings, including at Wainui Beach in Gisborne.
13. With this background in
place, the Technical Advisory Group (TAG) started with the development of
adaptation thresholds for each of the priority units.
14. This has been a
collaborative process, working with community members through the community
workshops and with Council asset managers and planners. While somewhat
interrupted by COVID, the following process has been followed.
14.1. In June 2021, a workshop
was held with community members to identify potential consequences of coastal
hazard events. This was baseline work to understand the kinds of coastal
hazards impacts people are concerned about. These were broadly grouped into
Human, Natural Environment, Economy and Built Environment categories.
14.2. In November 2021, a
duplicate workshop was then held with Asset Managers across the three Partner
Councils so that the consequences identified also factored in Council assets
and responsibilities.
14.3. The coastal hazard
consequences identified through these workshops where then assessed and refined
to identify those that could be suitable as thresholds. For example, a suitable
threshold needed to be monitorable and have a causal link to coastal hazards.
14.4. We then worked to identify
which thresholds were relevant to which priority units. In many cases the
thresholds were applicable across all units (e.g. loss of road access) while in
other cases there were unit-specific considerations.
14.5. In February 2022, a second
workshop was held with community members to refine these outcomes and to
develop ‘threshold measures’. For example, some thresholds
are frequency based, i.e. we need to determine how often and for how long the
impacts are experienced before the threshold is reached.
Next
Steps
15. This work will produce
draft adaption thresholds for each priority unit. It is currently being written
up and refined for testing through the TAG. It will then be shared with
community workshop participants for their input and review before being
presented to this Joint Committee.
16. The next critical step is
to test the proposed thresholds with the wider community. This will occur
alongside, and as part of, consultation on the full Strategy currently planned
for early 2023.
17. The process of developing
signals and triggers for each of the thresholds is intended to be more
technically driven and will primarily be developed through TAG and with Council
staff. For example, if a threshold of “loss of road access” is
confirmed, Council staff will need to decide what signals and triggers it can
define and monitor, to ensure that sufficient lead time is available to act before
road access is lost.
18. This process is planned to
commence once draft thresholds have been confirmed with the Joint Committee.
Decision Making Process
19. Staff have assessed the
requirements of the Local Government Act 2002 in relation to this item and have
concluded that, as this report is for information only, the decision making
provisions do not apply.
Recommendations
That
the Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee receives and
considers the Signals, triggers and thresholds update staff report.

Clifton
to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee
8 April
2022
Subject: Memorandum of Transition -
Council Decisions
Reason for Report
1. This report presents the
outcome of deliberations on the draft Memorandum of Transition (MoT) as
recommended by the Joint Committee on 19 November 2021.
Background
2. Following the Joint
Committee and Partner Councils’ consideration of and support for the
outcome of the Funding Review led by Raynor Asher QC, the Technical Advisory
Group (TAG) has been developing the MoT with support from Simpson Grierson.
3. The purpose of the MoT is
to provide a mechanism for Hastings District Council, Napier City Council and
Hawke’s Bay Regional Council (Partner Councils) to confirm the agreed
arrangements for implementing the Strategy and the associated transfer of
assets recommended by the Funding Review.
4. The MoT will also provide
the means for achieving a proposed amendment to the Hawke’s Bay Regional
Council’s 2021-2031 Long Term Plan without objection from territorial
authorities under s.16 of the Local Government Act.
5. The draft MoT was
considered by the Joint Committee at their meeting on 19 November 2021, and the
following resolutions were passed.
That the Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy
Joint Committee:
1. Receives
and notes the “Memorandum of Transition” staff report.
2. Endorses
the draft Memorandum of Transition.
3. Recommends
that the Hastings District Council, Napier City Council and Hawke’s Bay
Regional Council confirm and execute the Memorandum of Transition, following
satisfaction of all requirements under the Hawke’s Bay Region’s
Triennial Agreement for the Triennium October 2019-2022.
6. The following sections
outline the responses to these recommendations from each Partner Council, and
the results of consultation with Wairoa District Council and Central
Hawke’s Bay District Council.
Hastings District Council
7. Hastings District Council
(HDC) considered the Joint Committee’s recommendations and the draft MoT
at their meeting on 9 December 2021.
8. Support for the MoT was
confirmed, with the following resolutions passed.
Councillor Dixon/Councillor Redstone
8.1 That the Council Meeting
receives the report titled Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy
Memorandum of Transition for Coastal Hazards Service Delivery dated
9 December 2021.
8.2 That the Council endorses
the Memorandum of Transition.
8.3 That the Council instructs
the Chief Executive to execute the Memorandum of Transition on behalf of the
Hastings District Council following satisfaction of consultation requirements
under Clause 7 of the Hawke’s Bay Region’s Triennial Agreement for
the Triennium October 2019-2022.
8.4 That the Chief Executive be
delegated authority to approve changes to the Memorandum of Transition should
they be required by the Hawke’s Bay Regional Council and Napier City
Council in consultation with the Hastings District Council members of the
Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee.
Napier City Council
9. Napier City Council (NCC)
considered the Joint Committee’s recommendations and the draft MoT at
their meeting on 21 December 2021.
10. Support for the MoT was
confirmed, with the following resolutions passed.
Council resolution Dep. Mayor Brosnan / Councillor Price
That Council:
10.1 Receives the report titled
“Memorandum of Transition for Coastal Hazards Service Delivery”
dated 21 December 2021.
10.2 Endorses the Memorandum of
Transition.
10.3 Instructs the Chief
Executive to execute the Memorandum of Transition on behalf of Napier City
Council following satisfaction of consultation requirements under Clause 7 of
the Hawke’s Bay Region’s Triennial Agreement for the Triennium
October 2019 – 2022.
10.4 Delegates authority to the
Chief Executive to approve changes to the Memorandum of Transition should they
be required by the Hawke’s Bay Regional Council and Hastings District
Council in consultation with the Napier City Council members of the Clifton to
Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee.
Hawke’s Bay Regional Council
11. Hawke’s Bay Regional
Council (HBRC) considered the Joint Committee’s recommendations initially
in workshop on 8 December 2021.
12. While it was initially
proposed to take the matter for formal consideration at their December 2021
meeting, this was deferred following a request from councillors for further
advice and analysis. The MoT carries significant implications for HBRC as an
organisation including, for example, the need to increase capacity to deliver
works under the Strategy. This additional analysis was important to support
informed decision making.
13. On 23 February 2022, HBRC
received this additional advice, which resulted in a request for some minor
changes to the MoT in relation to the proposed transfer of assets. This request
was subsequently approved by NCC and HDC.
14. Also on 23 February, the
outcome of the internal review that had previously been requested by
councillors was presented. This review presented analysis under eight topics
associated with the proposal for HBRC to lead Strategy implementation, being:
14.1. Organisation wide impacts
14.2. The most effective
organisational model for implementation
14.3. Suitability of policy and
regulatory framework
14.4. Science output requirements
14.5. Obligations to tāngata
whenua
14.6. Ratepayer equity, including
an assessment of the full financial cost to all ratepayers in delivering the
strategy
14.7. The impacts of climate
change on the adaptive pathways in light of the most recent projections
14.8. An assessment of the carbon
footprint arising from implementing the strategy.
15. The Internal Review was
accepted by HBRC at their meeting on 23 February.
16. The revised MoT was
subsequently taken to HBRC’s Corporate and Strategic Committee, before
being presented to full Council on 30 March 2022.
17. For reference, the revised
MoT is provided as Attachment 1 to this report. The revisions requested by HBRC
and approved by NCC and HDC are shown as tracked changes.
18. Support for the approach
outlined in the MoT was confirmed at the 30 March meeting, with the following
resolutions passed by majority (1 opposed).
That Hawke’s Bay Regional Council:
18.1 Endorses the Memorandum of
Transition as proposed.
18.2 Instructs the Chief
Executive to execute the Memorandum of Transition on behalf of the
Hawke’s Bay Regional Council following satisfaction of consultation
requirements under Clause 7 of the Hawke’s Bay Region’s Triennial
Agreement for the Triennium October 2019-2022.
18.3 Delegates to the Chief
Executive authority to approve changes to the Memorandum of Transition should
they be required by the Hastings District Council and Napier City Council in
consultation with the Hawke’s Bay Regional Council members of the Clifton
to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee.
van Beek/Williams
CARRIED
Wairoa District Council
19. Wairoa District Council
(WDC) is not a party to the MoT, but consultation is required under the terms
of the Triennial Agreement and LGA s.16.
20. WDC considered the draft MoT
at their meeting on 22 March 2022.
21. Support for the approach
outlined in MoT was confirmed, with the following resolutions passed.
That Council:
21.1 Receives and notes the
paper “Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy 2120: Memorandum of
Transition”
21.2 Confirms that the Wairoa
District Council has no objection to the proposal outlined in the Coastal
Hazard’s Memorandum of Transition attached.
21.3 Confirms that the
consultation and communication process outlined in Section 7 of the
Hawke’s Bay Region’s Triennial Agreement for the Triennium October
2019-2022 has been satisfied with respect to the proposal outlined in the
Coastal Hazard’s Memorandum of Transition.
21.4 Agrees that the Hawke’s
Bay Regional Council should proceed to implement the formal provisions of s.16
of the Local Government Act to give effect to the proposal outlined in the
Coastal Hazard’s Memorandum of Transition.
Central Hawke’s Bay District Council
22. Like WDC, Central
Hawke’s Bay District Council (CHBDC) is not a party to the MoT but
requires consultation.
23. CHBDC requested that the
matter was workshopped prior to formal consideration, with this workshop taking
place on 27 January 2022.
24. CHBDC is due to formally
consider the draft MoT at their meeting on 6 April. A verbal update on the
outcome of that meeting will be provided to the Joint Committee meeting.
Next Steps
25. Following confirmation of
the position of CHBDC, the Chief Executives of HBRC, NCC and HDC will be
invited to execute to the MoT in accordance with the resolutions passed by each
Council.
26. The Minister of Local
Government will be informed of the proposal and the reasons for it, in
accordance with the requirements of the s.16(2) of the Local Government Act
27. HBRC will then notify the
proposal under s.16 of the Local Government Act. This is targeted to occur in
June 2022.
28. A consultation document is
currently being developed by HBRC for this process, with support from external
advisors. The document will need to be audited, with this process booked in to
occur through April/May 2022.
Decision Making Process
29. Staff have assessed the
requirements of the Local Government Act 2002 in relation to this item and have
concluded that, as this report is for information only, the decision making
provisions do not apply.
Recommendation
That
the Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint
Committee receives and notes the Memorandum of Transition –

4. The key focus and priority
for the Technical Advisory Group (TAG) remains the Memorandum of Transition
(MoT), which if confirmed will enable the commencement of the s.16 process by
HBRC (WS1 & WS2).
5. On 30 March 2022,
Hawke’s Bay Regional Council formally confirmed their support for the MoT.
This followed an extensive internal review process and debate at the Corporate
and Strategic Committee. Given the significance of the decision for HBRC, this
level of debate was important.
6. With the MoT now confirmed
by all Partner Councils, and Wairoa District Council confirming a supportive
position, only Central Hawke’s Bay District Council (CHBDC) remains. The
MoT has been workshopped with CHBDC, and they are due to formally consider it
at their meeting on 6 April. As a reminder, while the MoT will not
directly impact CHBDC, consultation is required under s.16 and the Triennial
Agreement. TAG is seeking a confirmation that CHBDC is comfortable and does not
oppose the proposal as set out in the MoT.
7. The above positive progress
has allowed an improved rating for Project Timeline and WS1: Funding
Governance.
8. WS5: Managed Retreat has
also been given an improved status, as TAG has now received a final draft
report from Tonkin + Taylor. The report will be workshopped with the
Joint Committee before a final report is issued.
9. For reference the MoT
includes, as Schedule Two, an indicative project timeline, key elements of which are replicated below.
Subject to HBRC adopting amendments to its Long Term Plan
to give effect to the Proposal:
9.1 HBRC shall consult on the
proposed Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy as a non-statutory policy
document and shall seek to adopt a final Strategy by 31 March 2023.
9.2 The Parties shall prepare
and execute the Asset Transfer Agreement by 1 July 2023.
9.3 The Clifton to Tangoio
Costal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee shall be disestablished on 30 June
2024.
The Advisory Committee shall be established from 1
July 2024.
9.4 The transfer of assets in
accordance with the Asset Transfer Agreement shall occur by 1 July 2024.
9.5 HBRC shall confirm funding
arrangement for implementing physical works under the Strategy in its 2024
– 2034 Long Term Plan.
Proposal: Mātauranga Māori Workstream
10. Following the last Joint
Committee meeting, TAG has been discussing the establishment of a new
Mātauranga Māori workstream.
11. While not yet fully scoped,
in broad terms the concept is to allocate additional project resources to
facilitate more effective input from mana whenua and to seek the integration of
Mātauranga Māori into project workstreams.
12. As a practical example, a critical
next step for the Coastal Ecology Workstream is to seek input from mana whenua
as part of designing a monitoring plan, so that taonga species and sites of
significance in the coastal area inform the monitoring approach. The
Mātauranga Māori workstream could support this approach with
dedicated project resources.
13. A workstream scoping
meeting has been booked with HBRC staff initially, and it is intended to share
and refine a draft workstream scope with the Joint Committee at their next meeting.
Any initial feedback from Joint Committee members on what this scope should and
should not include, and the process to develop and confirm the scope, is
welcome.
Decision Making Process
14. Staff have assessed the
requirements of the Local Government Act 2002 in relation to this item and have
concluded that, as this report is for information only, the decision making
provisions do not apply.

Clifton
to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee
8 April
2022
Subject: Communication and Engagement
update
Reason for Report
1. This report provides a
brief overview of communications and engagement that has happened since the
last Joint Committee meeting in February 2022. It outlines the outcome of the
digital engagement with the wider community ahead of formal consultation in May
2022 and other communications activities.
Executive Summary
2. We had successful digital
engagement with the community with 81 survey respondents, which is higher than
what we were expecting.
3. A media release went out
last week highlighting the three councils’
agreement for the Regional Council to lead the implementation of the strategy, subject to public
consultation. A newsletter has also gone out.
Discussion
4. Pre-engagement with the
community began at the start of March as a digital-first warm up ahead of
formal consultation. The focus of the engagement was a survey, brought to the
Joint Committee at the last meeting, shared to the community through our
mailing database, on council websites and social media pages, and through the
community panel members.
5. The primary purpose of the
engagement and survey was to reconnect with the community (it has been some
years since any form of targeted engagement has occurred with the wider
community), inform them of our work, and gain some high-level feedback to guide
future engagement and project development.
6. The survey closed on 31
March, and high-level results showed the following.
6.1. 70% of respondents live
within 10km of the coast.
6.2. 87% were concerned about
coastal hazards, with erosion being a key concern.
6.3. 20% of respondents had
either personally or known someone who had experienced loss or damage as a
result of coastal hazards in the past 5 years.
6.4. 78% of respondents either
support or strongly support the Regional Council leading the implementation of
the strategy.
7. Full results are in the
process of being compiled. Once compiled and available in a format for
presentation, they will be shared with the community members who have been
instrumental in assisting with survey design and dissemination and will be
presented to the 8 April Joint Committee meeting.
8. A media release confirming
public consultation on the leadership of the Strategy’s implementation
went out on 31 March following the Regional Council’s agreement on 30
March 2022.
9. Communications work
continues as we gear up for consultation mid-year.
Next Steps
10. The key next step is the
HBRC-led consultation in the middle of the year.
Decision Making Process
11. Staff have assessed the requirements
of the Local Government Act 2002 in relation to this item and have concluded
that, as this report is for information only, the decision-making provisions do
not apply.
Recommendation
That
the Clifton to
