β¨ Electoral Boundary Objections
NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE
No. 126
Objection 264 J R Murray
Objects to the exclusion of the western end of Puhinui Road and Prices Road for the proposed Otara electorate.
Suggested solution Should be included in the proposed Otara electorate on the grounds that the people who live in this area regard themselves as living in Papatoetoe and have to travel into and out of the Papatoetoe electorate in order to vote.
Objection 374 M J Haliday, Chairman, Papatoetoe Labour Electorate Committee
Objects to the exclusion of a small portion of the Mangere East area from the proposed Otara electorate.
Suggested solution To continue the line along Massey Road to the South Western Motorway and then down the South Western Motorway to Puhinui Road. This would put the Tidal Road area into the Mangere electorate. Alternatively the Mangere East area should follow the boundary between the current Papatoetoe and Mangere Wards of Manukau City.
Objection 49 Papatoetoe High School Board of Trustees
Objects to the proposed name of Otara which should be named Papatoetoe. Papatoetoe is a community of long-standing which achieved its own city status prior to absorption into Manukau City.

Five primary, one intermediate and one secondary school also have Papatoetoe as part of their identities. Not one school in the area even has Otara in its name. Fairly or unfairly, Otara is a name with negative connotations both in the Auckland area and to many across the country. Papatoetoe existed before Otara as a residential area, as a shopping area, as an educational provider and as an electorate.
Objection 365 G M Ellis
See Objection 361 (15) Howick for reasons.
Suggested solution That two electorates be created east of the Tamaki River, one centred on Pakuranga with a boundary moving south for the required population and one on Howick with a boundary moving east for the required population.
Objection 366 I C McGechie
Objects to the exclusion of part of the Papatoetoe Ward, Manukau City, on the grounds that community of interest and facilities of communication for the people living in this area are with Papatoetoe.
Suggested solution The boundary between the proposed Otara and
