Draft Variation to the District Plan

conclusion of this meeting.
Orepuki CDA Rating Boundary
The Chair presented to the subcommittee maps
prepared by staff highlighting an extended area of the rating boundary as
proposed by the subcommittee and also as proposed by staff.
The meeting agreed that further
discussion on the council proposal is required with the community, and
requested staff arrange and attend a public meeting to discuss the reasoning
of the staff proposed rating boundary and to give the residents clarity on
the proposal.
It was further agreed that in the first
instance Finance staff attend the next meeting of the subcommittee and
discuss the proposed boundary change as highlighted on the maps.
School Bus Route
The meeting was informed of a change in
the school bus route advising it is intended for the bus to stop at the
Monkey Island corner and not enter the township.
The Community Engineer expressed concern
at the lack of area for the school bus to turn at this corner and advised
this has the potential to be a safety issue.
The meeting requested Mr Erskine liaise
with Member McCracken and investigate this matter and report back to the
subcommittee.

issues at Gemstone Beach.
