"Madam", said the newspaper employee, "today is Saturday. The Sunday paper is
not delivered until tomorrow,
on SUNDAY".
There was quite a long
pause on the other end of
the phone, followed by a ray
of recognition as she was
heard to mutter, ...... "Well,
shit, that explains why no
one was at church either.

Whau Local Board Meetings
The following were amongst the items discussed at the June meeting of the
Whau Local Board at New Lynn, 20 August 2014.
Deputations
Stewart Exler - Exler Turf Limited & Stefan Crookes
Stewart Exler (Exler Turf Limited), Stefan Crooks (Suburbs RFC), Alex
Glasgow (NZ Sports Turf Institute) and Brian Nola (WRFC) were in attendance to present to the local board on repair and maintenance of sports
fields in Auckland.
Public Forum
Sister Rene Shadbolt Park – Stefan Crooks reported that the Suburbs
Rugby clubhouse is now open, and thanked the Board for their support
Sio Lafaele – Aspire Community Trust
Their vision is to inspire youth and wider community to be creative and
original, through community programmes. They want to give youth in the
community to drive their own success stories. The trust is made up of two
branches – Aspire Events and Aspire Media.
Carlos Ulberg
Mr Ulberg set up the Carlos Ulberg Trust to help troubled youth first in the
Whau area, and later intends countrywide expansion of his programmes.
Wants to equip youth with the right resources. Currently is based in Kingsland, but is seeking to establish a base in this area.
Board Chairman’s report
Draft local Board Plan meetings
1. We hosted some very successful local board plan public meetings where
we received your feedback and encourage written submissions to the
Draft Whau Local Board plan. The submission closing date was 6
August and the Hearing will be held on September 3rd at the Whau Local
Board office, 31 Totara Ave.
Mataawaka Meeting
2. I attended a western board cluster meeting with representatives of the
Henderson-Massey and Waitakere Ranges boards to listen to Maori
input into our Draft Local board plan and ensure that we build trust and
collaboration towards achieving improved outcomes for Maori.
Proposed Whau Coastal Boardwalk
3. At Bay Olympic in Portage Rd, I attended the launch of the Whau coastal
Boardwalk. Whau Councillor Ross Clow is coordinating many groups to
design and fund a coastal boardwalk from Olympic Park in New Lynn
heading west along the Kelston Whau River coastline and extending
onwards through the Henderson-Massey ward. Partnerships between
our boards and the Charitable Trusts Foundation will facilitate and
build a significant boardwalk. A steering committee will set up a trust
entity to provide project oversight.
Launch Pad Careers Expo
4. At the New Lynn Community Centre a Careers Expo with Youth Services
West attracted 100 participants, and 96 signed up with youth services. I
saw many young people engaged in discussing further training and
career planning. New Lynn Centre co-ordinator Christine McFarlane
says she loves to be part of planning for success for our young people.
Former St Andrew’s Sunday school hall, Margan Ave New Lynn
5. Heritage portfolio lead Derek Battersby and I met heritage manager Noel
Reardon onsite at this historic building in Margan Ave. Following heavy
rain some of the bricks have fallen to the ground on the exterior wall of
this building. Noel will investigate how the Heritage Acquisition fund
could support retention of this scheduled historic building.
Avondale Redevelopment moves up priority list
6. Early work on the Long-term plan has identified the inner west triangle
including Avondale as an area of spatial priority based upon a number of
factors including the rail infrastructure and planning work already done.
This is good news for our continued advocacy for Avondale. The Mayor’s
Message which will be released on August 28th announces funding
priorities for the Long Term Plan 2015-2025.
Greenways Planning continues
7. One of our local board plan outcomes is that It’s 20 minutes to
everything we need. Alternatives to car travel will enact this outcome
and pathways connecting neighbourhoods known as greenways are part
of the solution. Our greenway planning priorities are:
Heron Park to Holly St
Miranda Reserve connections
Craigavon Park connection
Rizal Reserve to Delta Ave
Riversdale Reserve circuit
Citizenship Ceremony
8. The Western area ceremonies to welcome and present citizen
certificates to new New Zealanders are wonderful occasions. I always
enjoy seeing people from all over the world valuing what our country can
offer.
Inaugural Fast response events grants
9. At our July meeting (CP2014/15057) we set aside $10,000 from within
our events budget for our fast events grants scheme, for grants of
$1,000 or less. A number of groups and opportunities have been identified and considered by a number of local board members at the local
board Events Portfolio meetings.
10. The following groups and activities are proposed for board ratification
from this funding:
a. Avondale Community Gardeners: Community environmental event in Avondale.
b. Festival of Cultures Trust: Community festival celebrating diversity in New
Lynn.
c. Aspire Trust: Inspirational youth event with music acts & guest speakers.
d. Kelston Samoan Youth: Local youth production of music, drama & dance

experts.
h. Wesleyan Youth Group: Community music event for local choirs & youth
groups.
i. Carlos Ulberg Trust: Sporting youth event to keep our community active &
healthy.
j. Pasifika Sports Trust: Local sporting tournament for the wider community.
Auckland Transport report
Pedestrian crossing, Heaphy Street, Blockhouse Bay
Auckland Transport’s investigation confirmed that Heaphy Street is the only leg of the
five-leg roundabout that did not have a formal crossing. The location was
assessed for a pedestrian crossing, carefully considering several factors such as
pedestrian demand and desire line, traffic volumes, crash history, and proximity
to driveways and side streets, amongst other factors. The investigation has
concluded that a zebra crossing facility on Heaphy Street will result in significant pedestrian and vehicular safety benefits, providing easier and safer navigation of the roundabout for pedestrians, and encouraging care and awareness
of pedestrians by drivers.
Bus Stop alterations
New bus stop outside No. 77 Avondale Road.
Proposed bus stop re-location: from 88 Bollard Ave to outside 78A/80 Bollard Ave
Proposed bus stop upgrade: No. 40/42 Bollard Avenue
Bus shelter and kerb build-out at 35 Ulster Road
Proposed work on Bollard-Methuen Road intersection
Installation of NSAAT (No stopping at all times) markings at this intersection

APATHY - a community spirit-killer
There’s been quite a bit of discussion around the Rosebank
neighbourhoods about this problem in the past couple of months,
and the consensus seems to be that people either don’t care
anymore, or that they just accept that it is what it is (where
increased crime, increased rubbish, reduced maintenance and a lack
of facilities is concerned) . WHY?
Why accept the opinion, often expressed, that your community
appears to be being treated like “The Lost Tribe” by elected representatives?
Almost 90% of the reported crime in the NPT area happens in Rosebank, so the NPT naturally concentrate more of their prevention
patrols there. But when we have a crime spike in Waterview, we get
to hear about it pretty quickly - from the community; in Rosebank,
the silence is deafening.
Why is that? Is having 100 of your
neighbours every month being crime victims acceptable? So long as
it’s not you?
Why do we have 60 people turn up to a community meeting in
Waterview to discuss starting a Community Patrol in the NPT area,
but the same meeting in Rosebank we had only 8 people turn up?
And the next (well advertised) meeting we only had 14?
Why can we not find more people in Rosebank to join the Community
Patrol, and help be part of the solution, instead of accepting the
problems? So we have a very small team who can only patrol occasionally.
Why do we easily get Waterview people to join our Neighbourhood
Safety Panel, but have struggled to get people from Rosebank over
the 3 years?
Police and the NPT staff are one part of the problem-solving process.
The wonderful, hard-working and committed volunteers (who all
have full-time work as well) on the Safety Panel are another part.
But without the wider community rallying to positively change your
neighbourhood, the same issues and grudging acceptance of them
will remain, and the growing reputation of community apathy will be
your legacy.
While total reported crime in July was down compared to the
past two months, property crime accounted for 75% of it - 25
reported burglaries & 15 thefts from cars, nearly all in the residential areas.
Several prevention measures can
help reduce the opportunity for
offenders to commit crime;
· Lock your doors and windows at
night, and anytime you’re out
· Install alarms, and turn them on
if you are not at home
· Always lock your car, even at
home
· Don’t leave valuables in your
cars, including GPS/phones
· Activate your car alarm/
immobiliser even when at home
· Look out - ring 111 straight away if you see anything suspicious
Our Facebook page reached another milestone, with our
500th ‘LIKE’ in August. Thanks to our supporters, and
please ‘Share’ this page, and feel free to join us for regular updates about stuff in our NPT area. We’ve also
signed up to neighbourly.co.nz, which is another way of
keeping contact with and being available for our
neighbourhoods.
https://www.facebook.com/AvondaleNPT
Don’t be the silent majority - challenge the ‘norm’, challenge the
decision-makers to invest in your neighbourhood. Talk to your
neighbours.
We know from our interactions when NPT started that people are
proud of their homes and families, so let’s be proud of our
neighbourhood too!
SAVE THE DATE…
It’s back again for 2014! After a fantastic event
last year, the Waterview Crew are bringing the fun
run back again, this time up at Heron Park, and
with the added twist of ’obstacles’ to negotiate
along the course. So get in early and register
now, and bring the whole family along for a great
day. Or get together with your neighbours, and
enter as a team.
