Objection 609 Hastings District Council

Objects to the proposed boundaries of Napier, Takapau and East Cape electorates on the grounds that it is considered of interest, long term community association, to permit the effective operation and representation within the electorate

Suggested solution 1) A new Hastings electorate, based on Hastings City, including Flaxmere and Twyford, encompassing the Heretaunga Plains and the Southern and Coastal portions of Hastings District. 2) A revised Napier electorate made up of Napier City, Waiohiki, Eskdale, Tongoio, Pakowhai the Chatham Islands and Bay View. 3) A revised East Cape electorate. This electorate will include Gisborne district, Wairoa District, Central Hawkes Bay District and portions of Hastings District. Opotiki district has been excluded and will need to be accommodated with the Bay of Plenty area.

Objection 606 A Church

Similar to Objection 420. The proposed boundaries will divide integral parts of Hastings and Napier overriding both geography and community of interests. The urban areas of Hastings/Napier being proposed for inclusion in the East Cape seat have no affinity with East Cape.

Suggested solution To include Flaxmere in the Takapau electorate and to include Bay View and Poraite in the Napier electorate. The urban areas of both Napier and Hastings should be kept intact within single electorates so as to best serve the interests of communities affected and make other changes as proposed under ‘Option C’ by Michael Laws MP.
