assessed the development of signals and triggers and has determined to pause
further work until the Strategy has been adopted with confirmed thresholds.
Workstream currently on hold.
|
4. There are no status changes
to report in this period.
General
update
5. Since the last Joint
Committee meeting, workshops have been held with each of the Partner Councils
individually to update on strategy development and provide an opportunity for
questions and discussion.
6. This was a good opportunity
for direct engagement with all Councillors ahead of key strategy milestones
(e.g. confirmation of funding model).
7. There are no specific
matters requiring Joint Committee attention arising from workshops held with
HBRC (10 April) and NCC (9 May) The Workshop with HDC is being held on Monday
13 May (after this paper is finalised); a verbal update will be given on any
matters HDC may wish to feedback on.
8. Also on 13 May, a meeting
is being held with members of the Te Awanga community regarding coastal erosion
issues in Te Awanga. Erosion was particularly prevalent following Cyclone
Gabrielle, prompting community members to investigate and develop a proposal
for mitigation works. A verbal update on the outcome of that meeting will be
given at the Joint Committee meeting.
Decision-making process
9. 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 Project
Manager's May 2024 update.

Clifton
to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee
Friday 17
May 2024
Subject: Mātauranga Māori
workstream update
Reason for Report
1. This report provides an
update on activity and next steps for the Mātauranga Māori Workstream
for Joint Committee information.
Background
2. This workstream has been
established to allocate additional project resources to facilitate more
effective input from mana whenua. This was initiated in direct response to low
levels of mana whenua engagement following the conclusion of the Community
Panel process in 2018.
3. The purpose defined for the
workstream is “to
weave Mātauranga Māori through the ongoing development and
implementation of the Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy.”
4. At the Joint Committee
meeting of 23 September 2022, the committee received and endorsed the draft
scope of the Mātauranga Māori Workstream including three outputs: a
Cultural Values Framework, a Mātauranga Māori Implementation Plan and
a Taiao Monitoring Plan.
5. The confirmed workstream
scope is provided as Attachment 1.
6. The scope has been
developed with the working group, and refined with input from Aramanu Ropiha,
who has subsequently been engaged to provide general support to the project,
particularly around engagement with Mana Whenua, to conduct a literature review
that updates details of the Cultural Values Report, and to prepare a draft
Cultural Values Framework for consideration and review by Mana Whenua.
Discussion
7. Following Joint Committee
endorsement of the workstream scope, discussions with organisations
representing the interests of Mana Whenua were sought to test the approach and
to confirm the preferred process for advancing work under the workstream.
8. Engagement to date has included
dialogue with HBRC Māori Advisory Committee, Te
Taiwhenua o Heretaunga, Kahungunu ki te Matau a Māui (Customary Fisheries), Ngāti
Kahungunu Iwi Incorporated, Maungaharuru-Tangitū Trust; Mana Ahuriri Trust
and Tamatea Pōkai Whenua Trust.
9. Through this engagement,
and without exception, these representative organisations have confirmed that
they do not have capacity to contribute to the project at this time. They have
indicated support for ongoing work within the project to prepare Cultural Values
Frameworks for their consideration based on existing information in the public
realm. The other entities have asked to be kept informed of this developing
work.
Next Steps
10. Aramanu Ropiha will
continue the literature review and engagement with each of the PSGEs to develop
and provide the draft Cultural Values Frameworks. It is currently proposed to
develop one framework for each PSGE within the Strategy project area.
11. It is anticipated the first
drafts (x3) will be ready by the end of May 2024. The process, and timeframes,
have yet to be confirmed for the PSGE’s to consider the drafts, provide
feedback, and endorse any final version.
Decision-making process
12. 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 Mātauranga Māori workstream update staff report.

Clifton to Tangoio Coastal
Hazards Strategy Joint Committee
Friday 17
May 2024
Subject: Regulatory Workstream update
Reason for report
1. This paper presents a draft
report Clifton to Tangoio Coastal Hazard Strategy: Regulatory Workstream
Background Paper (the “Regulatory Background Paper”) for
discussion with the Joint Committee.
2. The author of the
Regulatory Background Paper, Deborah Kissick from Traverse Environmental, will
be in attendance at the workshop and will provide a brief presentation to
outline the purpose and key findings of the report.
Background
3. The Regulatory Chapter is
one of nine key chapters proposed to form the Clifton to Tangoio Coastal
Hazards Strategy (Table 1).
Table 1: Draft outline - Clifton to Tangoio
Coastal Hazards Strategy

Implementation
|
Describe implementation model for the Strategy (role of
HBRC, Advisory Committee, etc)
|
|
3.9 Strategy
Monitoring and Review
|

|
4. The Regulatory Chapter is
intended to set out the requirements of the local planning/regulatory framework
that will need to be in place to support successful Strategy implementation.
5. Many of the regulatory-related
issues arising in relation to Strategy implementation are complex, and some are
the subject of national debate (e.g. enabling managed retreat). Members of the
Technical Advisory Group (“TAG”) have identified the need for a background
paper to support and inform the development of the Regulatory Chapter, rather
than the chapter itself attempting to contain all the relevant commentary and
evaluation. This follows the approach taken to develop other Strategy content
(e.g. design, funding, etc.).
6. It was agreed with TAG that
the Regulatory Background Paper should cover the following key topics:
6.1. Consideration of the
recommendations of the Consentability Report[1]
and the Policy and Regulatory Review Report[2]
(both completed by Mitchell Daysh under the Regulatory Workstream in 2020)
6.2. The potential for perverse
outcomes to arise from implementation of the pathway adaptation actions, and
6.3. The need to accommodate the
implementation of the Strategy through the existing regulatory planning
framework in Hawke’s Bay.
7. The draft Regulatory
Background Paper is provided as Attachment 1.
8. A brief summary of the
report is provided in the following sections. This will be complemented in
workshop with a presentation.
Report summary
Consistent approach to the management
of coastal hazards
9. A key focus for this
section of the Strategy is the need for continued influence on national
direction through legislative change and national direction (National Policy
Statements and National Environmental Standards) to ensure a nationally
consistent direction on the implementation of coastal strategies.
10. A further focus is to
ensure regional consistency in the approach to coastal hazard management across
the project area. As identified in the earlier 2020 work by Mitchell Daysh,
there is currently a difference between the management approach to coastal
hazards between Hastings District Council, Napier City Council, and the other
councils in the region which should be resolved.
Risk of perverse outcomes
11. The Regulatory Background
Paper explores the risk of perverse outcomes associated with implementation of
adaptation actions under the Strategy.
12. ‘Moral hazard’
is a term that has been regularly used through Strategy development to describe
this risk. For example, adaptation actions (such as a sea wall or beach
nourishment) are often only ‘buying time’ by temporarily reducing
exposure and risk for coastal properties and assets. As climate change
continues, the adaptation action may start to fail. However, if this temporary
reduction in risk has encouraged investment and development, a more significant
problem may be passed on to future generations.
13. The Paper determines that
‘maladaptation’ is a more appropriate and accurate term than moral
hazards in this context, to describe the unintended consequences that may arise
from the implementation of the pathway adaptation actions in the Strategy. It
recommends that the Strategy adopts this term going forward.
14. The Paper then explores the
importance of addressing maladaptation risks and makes a series of
recommendations for managing the risks of maladaptation through the regulatory
planning framework, leading with the Regional Policy Statement.
Strategy implementation
15. The Regulatory Background
Paper explores the challenges with implementation of adaptation actions
identified through the preferred pathways for each of the nine priority units.
16. Key challenges with
undertaking coastal protection work within the current regulatory planning
framework are described by way of case studies (i.e. the Clifton Revetment
resource consent process, the Rangatira revetment at Whakarire Avenue, Napier
and the beach scraping/renourishment for the beach between Haumoana and Te
Awanga domains).
17. The Paper then makes a
series of recommendations for future amendments to the local regulatory
planning framework to strike a balance between providing for adaptation actions
identified in the preferred pathways, while ensuring that there is a robust consideration
of actual and potential adverse effects.
Next steps
18. With any feedback and
discussion on the Regulatory Background Paper, TAG will commence drafting the
text for the Regulatory Chapter of the Strategy.
19. As is standard practice for
background reports, a final version of the Regulatory Background Paper will be
presented at the next meeting of the Joint Committee to allow its formal
receipt and acceptance.
Decision-making process
20. 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
Regulatory Workstream Background Paper staff report.

Clifton
to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee
Friday 17
May 2024
Subject: Communications and engagement
update
Reason for Report
1. This report updates the
committee on communications and engagement since March 2024, and discusses the
communications and engagement plan for the period July – September 2024.
Background
2. A communications and
engagement strategy is guiding efforts to reconnect with the community over the
next six months for pre-engagement and formal consultation on the Strategy.
3. This plan aims to:
3.1. maintain and increase
community understanding of, interest in, and build buy-in to the coastal
hazards mahi.
3.2. enable and facilitate
meaningful engagement with communities using effective and innovative
approaches.
3.3. align with and complement
engagement activities occurring through the Mātauranga Māori
Workstream.
Discussion
4. There has been a low level
of engagement activity since the last Joint Committee meeting as the focus of
the Strategy has been on funding model development and testing.
5. A community newsletter was
sent out in April 2024, following the March Joint Committee meeting.
6. As brought to the last
Joint Committee meeting in March, further communications and engagement will
occur in two phases over the next six months.
6.1. In the lead up to formal
Strategy consultation in September, we will be pre-engaging with the community
in July to provide information to assist understanding of the proposed
Strategy. This will include videos, a survey, media, social media, community
events, and community champions. CoastSnap will be launched during
pre-engagement also.
6.2. Formal consultation is proposed
to occur through the month of September as a proposed amendment to HBRC’s
Long Term Plan. This will include a consultation document and submission form,
media, social media, events, advertising, videos and community champions and
other initiatives.
7. Another newsletter will be
shared with the community following this Joint Committee meeting.
Next steps
8. With any feedback from the
Joint Committee, TAG will be commencing pre-engagement in July.
9. Reporting at each Joint
Committee meeting will be provided to update on engagement activities and
outcomes.
10. In addition, Joint
Committee members will be advised of key engagement activities by email, so
they have the opportunity to participate.
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
Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee receives and notes the Communications
and engagement update staff report.

Clifton
to Tangoio Coastal Hazards Strategy Joint Committee
Friday 17
May 2024
Subject: Current coastal projects update
Reason for report
1. This report provides an
opportunity for the Technical Advisory Group (TAG) to update the Joint
Committee on various coastal projects that members have expressed an interest
in keeping abreast of.
Rangatira Revetment
2. Landscaping is being
undertaken but physical structure is complete.
3. Clause 7.5 of the Coastal
Hazards Memorandum of Transition (MOT) requires consultation with HBRC for any
new coastal hazards assets not listed in the MOT. In accordance with this
clause, NCC and HBRC have exchanged letters acknowledging further discussion on
transition is required.
Westshore
resource consent renewal
4. This work package is to
secure a new consent for the renourishment of Westshore Beach that expires in
2027.
5. Discussions have been held
with NCC regarding the alignment of the gravel bund and the option to extend
the rock armouring of the Rangatira sea wall. Extension of the sea wall was not
considered as an option thus far due to the high cost. Extension of the bund to
tie into seawall to be included in future works. Other options will be
considered during the review of the renourishment programme.
6. Annual beach renourishment
works for 2024 have been completed. Monitoring of the bund performance
over autumn and winter is underway. The design for the 2025/26
renourishment will begin in July.
7. Consent costs will vary
depending on what type of works will be considered in the future.
7.1. Costs associated with the
continuation of the beach renourishment option will be similar.
7.2. For the construction of a
structure on the foreshore (i.e. groynes or rock revetment) the consent
requirements will increase due to additional engineering and environmental
investigations so consultation will be required. For comparison, an initial
cost estimate of $1.4M has been received for the extension of the rock
armouring (79m) to the Rangatira sea wall.
8. On completion of the beach
renourishment works review, the consenting costs for the preferred option will
be able to be better defined.
Haumoana shingle crest height
9. No activity during period.
HDC is looking at consent conditions, particularly source of replenishment
gravel, and considering options.
Haumoana 18
10. There has been no recent
interaction between HDC and the H18 residents during this period.
Maraetotara
River at Te Awanga
11. Damage to the foreshore
adjacent to the Maraetotara River at Te Awanga was caused by floodwaters from
Cyclone Gabrielle. This damage left some properties at risk from water
intrusion from high seas. A public meeting was held with the
community on 26 April 2023 to discuss possible solutions and how they might be
funded.
12. The Heretaunga Recovery
Plan includes, for consideration, a proposed construction of a revetment to
repair damage to the Maraetotara River channel to increase the resilience of
the area to future weather events and protect homes in Wellwood Terrace and
Kuku Street. The Heretaunga Recovery Plan is the project for which a funding
bid was included in the Heretaunga Locality Plan to address the damage caused
by Cyclone Gabrielle, but this has not been forthcoming to date.
13. Further erosion and sea
water intrusion occurred on 10 July 2023 in the Te Awanga Lagoon area, with
some metres of erosion to a 200m section of coast, impacting the beach access
and parking area, as well as causing power outages. Since this time, there has
been a replenishment of gravel to this area that has given some immediate
respite to the problem but needs ongoing monitoring.
14. A meeting was held with
representatives of the Haumoana, Te Awanga and Clifton area, along with HBRC
and HDC Councillors and staff on the 12 September 2023, discussing a number of
coastal related issues in the area, including the Te Awanga Lagoon area. A
number of actions have been documented and a follow up email has been provided
which clarifies current levels of understanding and advice as to a possible way
forward, with focus on using the next LTP process for any substantive progress.
RMA Emergency provisions are still a fallback option should circumstance
change, requiring more immediate intervention.
15. Te Awanga representatives
are still keen to pursue some level of protection for the section of coast
adjacent to the Te Awanga Lagoon, with a preference for a revetment style
intervention. The next step is to progress this through the LTP process. A
follow up meeting has been held with Te Awanga reps advising there is no
funding money available from the Flood Recovery funding source. Also advised
that any protection proposal would need to be brought to the attention of HBRC
as part of the Memorandum of Transition process.
16. No allocation has been made
in the HDC draft LTP at this stage, but the Te Awanga reps, with support from
HDC, are continuing to consider the Ecoreef solution for this section of coast
and have obtained prices for a staged approach. The next step involves a public
consultation process to determine possible cost sharing and development of a
rating scheme. A meeting is scheduled for 13 May between the community
representatives and TAG experts to discuss any potential overlaps or conflicts
before consultation on the strategy or their scheme for the lagoon commences.
Whirinaki
17. HDC Council staff have
continued to engage with North Shore Road representatives as the erosion
problems in this area are aggravated by recent cyclone and sea events. No
further work was done during the period.
18. The Cyclone Gabrielle event
has caused a greater level of damage to the coastline immediately north
of North Shore Road and to a section at the Esk River end of North Shore
Road. The section of road near the Esk River section has resulted in HDC’s
roading section placing limestone rock as foundation and protection works along
with backfilling and reinstatement to road level. This work was carried out as
part of emergency works associated with the cyclone. Further investigations are
required to determine the next steps for the northern section.
19. The erosion to the north of
North Shore Road has eroded the access track back into private property, and
residents are seeking advice and assistance to address this issue. The
Esk/Whirinaki Resilience project, part of responding to Cyclone Gabrielle, is
considering flood protection and river mouth management options that could have
relevance to the North Shore Road area and there may be an opportunity to
consider how these areas could work together.
Coastal Inundation Assessment Project update
20. The report was released on
14 December 2023 and a note was added to LIMs on the same day. The information
is now being used to inform decisions under the Building Act and is available
to view on the Hawke’s Bay Hazards Portal. NCC and HDC have both held
drop-in sessions for the public to come and discuss the modelling.
21. NCC is utilising the inundation report
to inform both Resource and Building Consent’s. We’ve had some push
back from applicants relating to resource consents use of the data, however,
and have sought advice from legal counsel and we’re comfortable that its
appropriate to inform the process.
Hawke’s
Bay Climate Action
22. The Climate Action Joint
Committee met on 13 March 2024 and received items on community carbon footprint
update, Napier District Plan, and natural hazards data gap analysis. Notably
for the coastal environment, the following information was noted regarding
current regional knowledge of coastal hazards.

23. In addition, it was noted
that HBRC Climate Action Ambassador Pippa McKelvie-Sebileau was leaving her
role to move back to France and there would be a lag during recruitment,
limiting staff capacity to develop climate action plans during this time.
24. As such, the 27 May Joint
Committee meeting is cancelled, with a meeting next planned for early August.
It is anticipated that the Joint Committee will discuss a shift in focus to
primarily focus on climate adaptation given the limited staff resources, current
government priorities and focus on cyclone recovery.
Decision-making process
25. 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
