Community Committee Plan Fund & Other Requests.

Our Vision: Halcombe village and the surrounding area is a safe, supportive, proud community with a strong heart. It is attractive and connected with appropriate infrastructure and basic services.

In summary… Who we are: Halcombe village and surrounding areas. What we are: Safe, supportive, proud, attractive, connected, appropriate infrastructure and basic services.

The following are projects that we seek funding for to make this vision a reality.

Community Committee Plan Fund

• 1. Monteith Street Carpark to Halcombe School Walkway

Meeting our vision: Safe, connected Cost: $18,521. Details have been supplied in the original document.

Other requests

• 1. Monteith Street Carpark to Halcombe School Walkway

If this is not able to be funded from the Community Committee Plan Fund 2020/21 (Contestable $60,000 fund) then we request that it be funded from other budgets within the 2020/21 Annual Plan. Meeting our vision: Safe, connected

Other requests

• 2. Hall re-roofing: Full replacement

Meeting our vision: Appropriate infrastructure and basic services Update:

• Thank you to Maureen Lambert (HCDG) and

James Adamson (MDC).

• Work done this year has been effective so far

i.e. Flashing between the main roof and the added on piece, fixing the leak in the supper room, work around the fireplace and chimney, the leaking and falling off guttering

• ver

the back kitchen window and the flooding that was occurring.

• Maureen met with Trev (Plumber) 18th Nov

2019 and the following was discussed:

Other requests

• 2. Hall re-roofing: Full replacement

Meeting our vision: Appropriate infrastructure and basic services

Issue Description Action

Grass in gutter and leaking gutter

Front left hand side of hall. Large amount of grass growing in gutter, bending the gutter. Birds are getting in behind the guttering. When it rains the water leaks through the joins in the gutter from the side door to front corner of hall. In winter water lies on the path most of the time. Gutter is old and the join material has probably perished – all gutters need replacing and bird proofing done between roof and gutter.

Water from downpipe

The downpipe on the front right hand side of the hall does not have a sump so the water pours across the footpath. Needs concrete path cut and a pipe put in that joins onto a drainpipe that runs along the path and goes into the stormwater

Condition of the parapet

The wood on the back side of the parapet is in a poor condition and not watertight (rotten boards). The flagpole is attached to that and is used. Boards need to be replaced.

Summary: We would like the re-roof to remain on the longer-term-plan, however for 2020/21 we would the to submit for funding for the above to be done.

Other requests

• 3. Hall and Playcentre exterior paint

Meeting our vision: Attractive, appropriate infrastructure and basic services Cost: $30,000 (estimate)

Other requests

• 4. Playground/Tennis Courts/ Public Toilets carpark (Willoughby Street)

Meeting our vision: Safe, attractive, appropriate infrastructure and basic services

Other requests

• 4. Playground/Tennis Courts/ Public Toilets carpark (Willoughby Street)

Meeting our vision: Safe, attractive, appropriate infrastructure and basic services Cost: $9,022. Details have been supplied in the original document.

Other requests

• 5. Stanway Road to Gilbert Street Pathway

Meeting our vision: Safe and appropriate infrastructure.

Other requests

• 6. Kimber Street Seal (approx. 250m)

Meeting our vision: Appropriate infrastructure and basic services We continue to keep this seal extension request in front of Council for when seal extensions are added back into the budget.

Wastewater Centralisation

In a nutshell:

• Piping untreated or pre-treated wastewater from 6 villages (Halcombe, Sanson, Rongotea,

Awahuri, Cheltenham and Kimbolton) to the Feilding Wastewater Treatment Plant (FWWTP).

• Estimated distance = 73km of pipework.
• Cost $10m.
• Saving $20m over 30 years = $666,667 per year.
• The FWWTP has the capacity for X number of houses and Y more ‘Ovations’.

Wastewater Centralisation

Earthquake prone buildings:

• The Manawatū District has been identified as a high risk area with regards to earthquakes

in New Zealand. Ohakea Foam Nightmare:

• $12.8m to pipe water to the affected properties (19 – 23 properties based on media

reports).

• Assumption is they will need less than 73km of pipe.

Wastewater Centralisation

OUR QUESTIONS:

• All eggs into 1 basket – ‘High-risk’ area for earthquakes yet we’re planning to run pipelines all over the
• countryside. It seems counter-intuitive.
• Mention has also been made of piping drinking water ‘out’ to the villages when this is done. Cost effective,

yes… low risk, no.

• $10m cost…really??
• Land based discharge options (Horowhenua examples)?
• Alternative technology options? No other options were presented in the LTP 2018-28.
• What happens in 50 years when capacity in Feilding runs out? Where to then?
• Capital connection charges – how will these become less when we have to start paying for another asset

(asset extension) from scratch again??

Wastewater Centralisation

We believe this project was ‘lost’ in the 2018-28 LTP. We ask that Council re-look at the feasibility and logic

• f this project – ideally re-consulting with the

communities before going any further.
