Subject: Funding Category 2 Flood Mitigation

That Hawke’s Bay Regional Council excludes the public from this section of the meeting, being Agenda Item 4 Funding Category 2 Flood Mitigation with the general subject of the item to be considered while the public is excluded. The reasons for passing the resolution and the specific grounds under Section 48 (1) of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 for the passing of this resolution are:

General subject of the item to be considered	Reason for passing this resolution	Grounds under section 48(1) for the passing of the resolution
Funding Category 2 Flood Mitigation	s7(2)(e) To protect against material loss by members of the public	Disclosing the modelling done for comparative purposes could impact on property values in scheme areas. A range of funding scenarios have been modelled for comparative purposes in order to agree a preferred funding model for consultation.  Maps of the scheme areas will be provided to show the defined scheme footprints and it will be possible to identify individual houses on those maps. Rating decisions are subject to strong public interest, in particular the landowners/property owners most likely to be affected by the decisions. However, these may also the individuals with the most to lose by disclosing modelling done for comparative purposes. Scheme ratepayers and the wider community will have an opportunity to provide feedback on the proposed funding scenarios during the public consultation process.
