Electoral District Objections




11 SEPTEMBER NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE

Objection 0940 A G Greig

Objects to the proposed boundary between Horowhenua and Kapiti Electorates on the grounds of the existing boundaries, topographic features, and population criteria. Seeks to retain the 1987 boundaries.

Objection 0966 The Alliance

The objection is to the inclusion in Horowhenua of that portion at the northern end of the electorate previously in the Rangitikei Electorate on the grounds that community of interest lies with the Rangitikei Electorate. Seeks that 1987 boundary be retained.

056 Napier

Objection 0800 The New Zealand Labour Party

Objects to the proposed boundaries between Napier, Hawkes Bay, Pahiatua, and Waikaremoana Electorates on the grounds that they do not reflect historic movements, do not minimise the division of Napier City, and do not address the continued urbanisation of Hawkes Bay Electorate.

Seeks a review of boundaries in the Bay View area of Napier City and various parts of the Maraekakaho Ward of Hastings District.

057 Hawkes Bay

Objection 0670 M Laws, MP

Objects to the proposed boundaries between Napier, Hawkes Bay and Paihiatua Electorates on the grounds that Greenlandds and Raukawa communities have been unnecessarily divided. Seeks the return to Hawkes Bay Electorate of the Raukawa area and the balance of the Greenlandds area, i.e. that part of the 1987 Hawkes Bay Electorate south of a line running along Mission, Auckland, Avondale and Park Roads and the southern edge of Anderson Park.

061 Kapiti

Objection 0006 L L Jones

(a) Objects to the exclusion from Kapiti of the new subdivision of Waikanae, ‘Cranbrook’, north of Hemi Road on the grounds of community of interest since this area will be part of urban Waikanae. Seeks the inclusion of the subdivision in Kapiti Electorate.

(b) Objects to the exclusion from Kapiti of Kent’s Road and Terrace Road off Ngatiawa Road on the eastern boundary of Kapiti on the grounds of community of interest since this area is part of Reikorangi which is part of the Waikanae community. Seeks the inclusion of Kent’s Road and Terrace Road in Kapiti Electorate.

Objection 0041 Kapiti Coast District Council

Similar to Objection 0006 (a)

062 Heretaunga

Objection 0853 R and J Cameron

Object to the boundaries for the Heretaunga Electorate on the grounds of community of interest and topography. Silverstream ought not to be divided down the middle, and should be fully included in the Heretaunga Electorate.

063 Western Hutt

Objection 0934 E Murrell

The proposed change places all of the land currently in the Western Hutt Electorate which lies north of State Highway 58 in the Kapiti Electorate assuming that this area has more community interest with Kapiti than with Western Hutt. On this basis the whole of Whitby should fall within the Kapiti Electorate, as it has no community of interest with Western Hutt. Also seeks to extend Heretaunga further into Silverstream and extend Eastern Hutt down into Pencarrow on the eastern side of the railway line.

066 Porirua

Objection 0039 R L Blackwood

Objects to the splitting of Tawa between Porirua and Ohariu Electorates on the grounds that the principle of community of interest is not preserved as the community of Tawa is divided and, with the removal of Johnsonville, the portion of Tawa in Ohariu Electorate is separated by a range of hills from the main community of this electorate in Karori. Seeks the inclusion of the whole of Tawa in one electorate.

Objection 0134 B and M McCallum

Object to part of Ohariu Valley being included in the Porirua Electorate (map included). There is no community of interest between them. This part of Ohariu Valley is completely separated from Tawa and Porirua by a line of hills. Seek inclusion in the Ohariu Electorate.

Objection 0135 P and V Taylor

Similar to Objection 0134

067 Ohariu

Objections 0069-0079, 0136-0174, 0199-0244, 0596-0786, 0866-0895, 0910 D Taylor and 281 others

Object to the proposed boundary between Ohariu and Wellington Central Electorates which runs through Johnsonville on the grounds that it splits the Johnsonville community.

Objection 0080 B M Green

Similar to Objection 0069

Objection 0133 E A Cutting

Objection 0197 A Foster

Similar to Objection 0069 but suggests the creation of a Western Wellington Electorate with its eastern and northern boundaries following the eastern and northern boundaries of the Makara/Ohariu, Wilton/Ohari and Wadestown area units and the creation of a Northern Wellington Electorate being the balance of Ohariu and Wellington Central Electorates.

Objection 0245 Johnsonville Residents Association.

Similar to Objection 0069 but provides more detail. Suggests that Wellington Central Electorate should include all of the Western Ward of Wellington City and that Ohariu Electorate should include the Khandallah part of Onslow Ward. Suggested boundary follows meshblocks which place the following adjoining properties into Ohariu Electorate: 2–26 Ramphal Terrace, 21 and 24–26 Satara Crescent, 1–7 Gavasakar Place, 73 and 68 Fox Street, 1–11 and 8–10 Rosalind Street, 52–78 Khandallah Road, all Ngatoto Street, 15–67A and 10 Bombay Street, 161 and 162 Cockayne Road, all Kabul Street, and properties east of 31–41 and 38 Old Porirua and 62 Kaiwharawhara Road.
