[1]Hamilton City Council | Te kauniherao Kirikiriroa
Kia ora,

Your information request
We write to acknowledge receipt of your information request about
information about traffic calming measures. Your information request has
been processed on 24/08/2023 and passed on to the relevant team within
Council for a response. The Local Government Official Information and
Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA) requires that we advise you on whether Council
will provide the requested information as soon as reasonably practicable,
and no later than 20 working days after the day we receive your request.

We will respond to you no later than 21/09/2023 .

Urgent requests
If you have asked for your request to be processed urgently,the team will
try to meet the date you have specified. However it may not always be
possible to meet your timeframe due to staff resourcing, and the size and
complexity of your request.

Fees & Charges
There is typically no charge, however the decision to chargewill be made
at Hamilton City Council's discretion and in alignment with our [2]LGOIMA
Charging Policy.

If there is a charge to be applied, Hamilton City Council will notify you
prior to incurring the charge.

Our management policy regarding charging is supported by theMinistry of
Justice Charging Guidelines for OIA requests.

You are entitled to three hours free and 20 pages of photocopying free of
charge. After that, charges of $38 per 30 minutes, and 20 cents per page
of photocopying applies. We may also recover any other actual costs, such
as special consultancy fees or other materials. This is set out in our
Fees & Charges Schedule [3]here.

Pro-active release of information
One of the key purposes of LGOIMA is to make information more freely
available, which promotes good government and trust and confidence in
public services. Proactively releasing completed OIA requests that may be
of interest to the wider public can help reduce the need for individuals
to make requests for information and it can reduce the work for Council in
responding to requests. Before publishing information personal and other
identifying details are redacted. Generally, where a request relates to a
narrow topic, these requests won't be published. You can search previous
published OIA responses [4]here.

COVID-19
There may be delays to OIA responses due to COVID-19 and other seasonal
illness impacting staff capacity both in the OIA team and across our
business. While we will aim to meet out statutory timeframes, a response
to your request may take longer than expected, or the timeframe for
responding to your request may be extended under LGOIMA.

Ombudsman
If you are unhappy with our response or our management of your information
request, you have the right to complain to the Office of the Ombudsman.
The Chief Ombudsman recommends contacting us in the first instance to see
if we can resolve the issue before a complaint is made. You can read more
about what help the Ombudsman can provide [5]here.

Contact us
If you have any concerns or further questions about your request, please
[6]email us.

Kia ora Donna,

 

Thank you for your email 21 August 2023 regarding your request under the
Official Information Act 1982 for information related to traffic calming
measures in Hamilton.

 

To enable us to identify what specific information you are seeking and to
provide a meaningful response to you for the request, we would like to ask
you to clarify question 4 of your request.

 

Could you please clarify which specific traffic calming measures and their
location you are interested in, and what you mean by ‘cycle facilities’ as
we require this information to program into the Crash Analysis system to
get you the information that you require?   Can you also advise the width
or lanes or length of roading network surrounding the traffic calming
measures, and cycle facilities that should be included in the analysis?

 

Could you please further specify the time period for the pre- and
post-implementation measures the analysis to cover?

 

We look forward to being able to assist once the above points have been
clarified.  It would be great to hear back from you by Monday (11
September 2023).

 

Ngâ mihi

Kia ora,

 

The National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) have received the
following Official Information Act request:

 

1. Was any of the emergency services such as FENZ, Hato Hone St John's or
Police consulted in regard to the traffic calming measures such as speed
humps and slower speed limits in Hamilton?

2. Do the Emergency services have any record of injuries to staff going
over traffic calming speed humps under the HSE Act 2015?

3. Do the emergency services report any delays to their incidents due to
lowered speed limits and traffic calming in Hamilton?

4. Has their been an increase in traffic accidents due to the traffic
calming measures or added bike lane design in Hamilton?

5. Do the emergency services have  updated information from the Hamilton
City Council and Waka Kotahi of changes to the speed limit and road
changes in Hamilton?

 

NEMA do not hold the requested information and believe it is held by your
agencies, respectively. Attached is an email exchange with the requester,
where they specify that they are interested in both information relating
to local roads (the responsibility of Hamilton City Council) and state
highways (the responsibility of Waka Kotahi). As such, I am seeking to
transfer the request in full to both Hamilton City Council and Waka
Kotahi.

 

Can you please advise by COP Thursday 24 August if you can accept the
transfer.
