Community Building Reserves Reserve buildings are mostly maintained by the lessee or community group overseeing the use of the building. The maintenance is funded either by the lessee or Council via community grants. It may be under the direction of APL Property so as to meet the requirements of the Building Act 2004 and other relevant regulations. Public Toilets Public toilet maintenance is provided for as stipulated in contracts between the Council and contractor or Community Association. Contracts are managed by Council staff and contractors are audited periodically to ensure compliance. Any complaints relating to public toilets or their operation are investigated as follows: • Emergency = within 2 hrs • Urgent = within 24 hrs • All others = within 2 days Nevertheless most complaints are sorted within an hour. To satisfy the requirement of the LGA 2002 Sanitary Services Assessment, the Council developed and utilised a public toilet assessment form, which is aligned with NZ standards 4121:2001 and 4241: This assessment rated the condition of all facilities, indicated timeframes for component asset repair, and provided the expected remaining asset life. This assessment documentation was utilised to update the asset inventory database and to assist planning for changes to the quality and quantity of public toilet provision. The cleaning and minor maintenance of public toilets are carried out under the following contracts: • Contract 2010/ 24 Picton Public Convenience Servicing (exp 30/6/15) • Contract 2010/25 Blenheim Public Convenience Servicing (exp 30/9/15) • Other minor contractual agreements with community groups, or as part of other Reserve maintenance contracts.
