TITLE:

Refund the PRF from the IIF for Kaitaia Flood control properties

ID:

A1100503

From:

Simon Crabb, Finance Manager

 

Executive Summary

In June 2018 council purchased 17-29 Dunn Street and 28-34 Empire Street in Kaitaia for $683,363 inclusive of site investigation costs and legal fees.

These 2 properties were purchased for flood control works, and were approved by council (24 October 2017) to be ultimately funded from the Infrastructure Investment fund (IIF).

At the time of purchase, council had not undertaken its Long-Term Plan (LTP) deliberation process, nor officially approved the flood control project. Thus, the funding of $683,363 was initially withdrawn from the Property Reinvestment Fund (PRF) with a view to refunding the PRF from the IIF upon council adopting its LTP.

The Eriksen Global recommendation (contained in Attachment One) to complete this refund is:

·   $683,363 be withdrawn from the IIF Milford Diversified Income Fund:

·   $683,363 be invested into the PRF Mint Diversified Income Fund:

The $683,363 will be repaid over time from the Flood Infrastructure targeted rate and the Awanui Flood Infrastructure targeted rate.

 

Recommendations

1.         That the report ‘Refund the PRF from the IIF for Kaitaia Flood control properties’ by Simon Crabb, Finance Manager and dated 20 August 2018, be received.

2.         That $683,363 is redeemed from the IIF Milford Diversified Income fund and invested into the PRF Mint Diversified Income Fund to repay the PRF for the purchase of the Empire and Dunn Street properties

 

Considerations

1.                                     Options

No.

Option

Advantages

Disadvantages

1

Redeem and Invest funds as recommended

Aligns the purpose of the property transaction with the appropriate funding mechanism, and generates a larger balance in the PRF dedicated to funding future investment properties

The balance of the IIF is reduced by $683,363.

2

Status quo

The balance of the IIF is maintained at current levels.

The PRF balance remains $683,363 lower than projected due to funding an operational project.

The staff’s recommended option is 1.

2.         Significance and engagement

In relation to section 79 of the Local Government Act 2002, this decision is considered to be of low significance because it is part of council’s day-to-day activities and is in accordance with the approved Treasury Management Policy.

3.         Policy, risk management and legislative compliance

The activities detailed in this report are in accordance with council’s Treasury Management Policy and the 2018–28 Long Term Plan, both of which were approved in accordance with council’s decision-making requirements of sections 76–82 of the Local Government Act 2002.

 

Other Considerations

Being a purely administrative matter, Community Views, Māori Impact Statement, Financial Implications and Implementation Issues are not applicable.
