I note that the provided information does not include any communications between the WCC and
the Road Efficiency Group who created the One Network Framework (ONF). I also note that the
WCC specifically answered Item 9 in stating "We do not hold any correspondence with The Road
Efficiency Group in respect of the Johnsonville Line."
However, The WCC response includes the following statement:
"Implementation of the ONF has included comparing the current ONF classification against District
Plan and Network Operating Framework (if available), focusing on the areas that will see a planned
change of use or growth."
It is unclear if this statement refers to any work undertaken between the Wellington City draft
District Plan and the Road Efficiency Group who created the ONF.
I. Can the WCC also specifically confirm that it has not communicated with the Road Efficiency Group
on any 'supporting analysis and/or the criteria used in the One Network Framework Mode
Classification PT1:"All metro rail corridors and dedicated corridors for non-rail public transport: all
services.”?' which is requested item 7 ?
J. Can the WCC also specifically confirm that it has not communicated with the Road Efficiency Group
'on the One Network Framework and its alignment with the definition of “good public transport
accessibility” in the proposed District Plan?' which is requested item 8 ?
With respect to points I and J, I can advise that to the best of my knowledge there has been no
communication between the Council and the Road Efficiency Group in respect of the One Network
Framework’s Mode Classification PT1.
There also appears to be some missing information which are attachments of linked information
referred to in emails. Can the following be provided for the following emails:
K. Email 49.pdf PowerPoint Missing document(s) - Presentation to the Councillor Working Group 24
August 2021 - Heritage and Inclusionary zoning.pptx
Attached as Appendix 1
L. Email 40_Redacted.pdf Missing document(s) - Issues and Options Report; Councillor Presentation;
Initial Steering Group Presentation; Early advice against IZ1; Early Advice against IZ2 Kirdan Lees

Attached as Appendix 1-7. Please note some of these documents were provided with my
initial response.
M. Email 42_Redacted.pdf Missing document(s) - "a snapshot of the key tables based on the original
WCC data provided."
Attached as Appendix 8.
N. Email 36_Redacted.pdf Missing document(s) - "attached our slides for you to circulate to the
meeting group"
Attached as Appendix 9.

the Councillor presentation before that"
Attached as Appendix 10. Please note this document was provided with my initial response.
P. Email 6_Redacted.pdf Missing document(s) - "2. WCC’s Inclusionary Zoning issues and options

Demographic information on Tawa, Johnsonville and Te Aro [Please use these reports for community
demographic profiles but not for population projections – see below] ; 6. Population forecast by

Attached as Appendices 2, 11, and 12.
Q. Email 16_Redacted.pdf Missing document(s) - "Attached as we discussed."
Attached as Appendix 13.
R. Email 14_Redacted.pdf Missing document(s) - "Item 1: Please find attached some comments on
your summary."
Attached as Appendix 14.
I would highlight at this point that the original request stated "If the requested information is held in
electronic form, it is preferred that it is provided in its complete and original electronic format."
Given the size and scope of your request, the documents were put into a format which allowed
redactions to be carried out and assisted in the collation and tracking of the numerous documents. I
would also note that this was a significant request which required many hours of officer time though
no charge was levied for the collation and provision of the information.
In addition there was a spreadsheet that was provided in PDF format. A copy of the original
spreadsheet is requested for the following:
S. MHUD housing Place summaries v12 Wellington City.pdf
To clarify, this is the format the document referred to is held in. I’m not aware of it being held in any
other format.
Is provided to ensure my information request is fully responded by the WCC. This is not a new
request.
Finally, Oral submissions on the District Plan are scheduled from the 9th of March. It would be
appreciate if the response could be provided before the JCA has to submit to Councillors.
Yours sincerely,
Tony Randle
