3. Staff Recommendations<\/strong>
That the Social, Community Development and Housing Committee:

4. Key Points<\/strong>
4.1 Key points are discussed in section 5 of this report below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Context\/Background<\/strong>
Issue or Opportunity<\/strong>
5.1 A Community Facilities Network Plan us being developed that will provide a framework to inform and guide Council\u2019s decision making processes over the provision and operation of community facilities. It will also provide information on specific facility opportunities identified by Council; namely, a Shirley Community Centre, a Multicultural Centre, a Centre for the Dallington-Avondale-Burwood area and an Okains Bay Community Centre.
5.2 Project objectives include:
\u00b7 Explore the feasibility of four potential community facilities identified by Council.
\u00b7 Describe current community facility provision including use, capacity, degree to which facilities are fit-for-purpose, cost and asset condition.
\u00b7 Develop a current list and framework for recording facilities provided by Council and others.
\u00b7 Cross-reference existing provision against community need.
\u00b7 Develop a framework and criteria that assists Council in making decisions on the provision of community facilities including working with others.
\u00b7 Produce a Network Plan as a living document to be updated over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Strategic Alignment<\/strong>
5.3 The LTP 2018-2028 Service Plan is aligned with Council\u2019s strategic direction of enabling active citizenship and connected communities in respect of community facilities, it states:
\u00b7 We [Council] provide community centres, halls and houses to encourage participation in local activities and build a sense of community.
\u00b7 We [Council] offer support to community organisations to help them deliver the valuable services they provide.
5.4 On 22 June 2018 Council resolved (CLTP\/2018\/00017):
\u00b7 That the Council requests staff to complete the Community Facilities Network Plan as soon as practicable; and approves an additional $170,000 operational expenditure in 2018\/19 to expedite this, inform next year\u2019s and future years\u2019 annual plans. Potential developments include but are not limited to; the Shirley Community Centre, a Multicultural Centre, a Centre for Avondale, Burwood and Dallington area and an Okains Bay Community Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Network Plan Scope<\/strong>
5.5 The Plan will primarily cover community facilities owned and\/or managed by Christchurch City Council including halls, community centres and cottages, leased facilities for volunteer libraries, toy libraries, community gardens and play centres. For the avoidance of doubt these are detailed in Community Facilities Asset Management Plan (17\/696137).
5.6 Other facilities will be analysed to inform the \u201cnetwork\u201d and identify opportunities to partner with others and\/or signal gaps:
\u00b7 Community facilities (or similar) situated on reserve managed the Parks Unit.
\u00b7 Council-owned heritage classified buildings used as community facilities.
\u00b7 Facilities owned by others.
5.7 The plan process will consider but not be limited to the following inputs:
\u00b7 Demographic, e.g. \u2013 Population, Diversity, Geographical spread
\u00b7 Financial, \u2013 CAPEX for new and R&R, OPEX
\u00b7 Range of options for facility provision, including but not limited to:
\u2013 Mixed model use such as community centre and libraries (Citizen Hub Strategy)
\u2013 Facilities provided in partnership including draft partnership documents and templates
\u2013 The promotion of non-Council facilities
\u2013 Non-asset solutions.
\u2013 Current and planned provision of facilities by Council and others.
\u2013 Utilization and availability of facilities.
5.8 Council owned facilities currently leased by Early Learning Centres will not be included in the Plan as Council has approved a process to determine its future involvement (13 December 2018).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project time frame<\/strong>
5.9 The project involves two workstreams that are interconnected. The development of a Network Plan and the consideration of potential facility opportunities identified by Council (see section 5.1 of this report).
5.10 Information on the identified facilities will be available to Council in order to inform any debate at the conclusion of the 2019\/2020 Annual Plan process in June 2019. Any Council decisions on these facilities in the Annual Plan process will inform and update the Draft Network Plan which will then be finalised for Council consideration prior to September 30 2019. Conversely the emerging findings of the Network Plan will be used to inform the advice provided to Council on the identified facilities.
