Public opposition to IAF Projects

Stefan Brown made this Official Information request to Kāinga Ora–Homes and Communities

The request was partially successful.

From: Stefan Brown

Dear Kāinga Ora–Homes and Communities,

I am seeking the following information around the Infrastructure Acceleration Fund Request for Proposal stage.

How many of the proposed projects have attracted opposition from Community Groups, individuals or other parties, including any opposition directly conveyed to your agency by the aforementioned parties?

How many of the proposed projects involve council owned land being used to access private developments?

How many of the proposed projects require land that has been designated (draft or otherwise) a Significant Natural Area under the NPSIB?

How many proposed projects require land that was purchased by its owner (generally likely to be a council) using funds specified for the purchase of reserves (Reserve Fund Contributions) as defined in the Local Government Act 1974 and any amendments?

How many proposed projects have attracted opposition in the community including but not limited to public petitions calling for the cessation or alteration of the proposed project?

How many of the proposed projects has Kaingora Ora received OIA requests about, both the number of projects and the number of requests?

How many of the proposed projects are shovel ready being fully consented and ready to start?

How many of the proposed projects have not had any form of public consultation and are therefore likely to attract opposition thus delay any potential acceleration this fund is seeking to provide?

Thank you in advance for this information.

Yours faithfully,

Stefan Brown
