✨ Electoral Boundary Objections



3776 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE No. 126

Objection 654 M Bonner

Similar to Objection 649.

Objection 650 M Ward

Objects to the inclusion of the suburb of Mt Cook in the proposed Rongotai electorate on the grounds: Mt Cooks community of interest looks to the Aro Valley and south end of The Terrace and Willis Street and to Mt Victoria as its natural adjacent communities.

Suggested solution Mt Cook be included in the proposed Wellington electorate.

Objection 653 E Clements

Objects to the proposed boundaries between Wellington and Rongotai on the grounds of the criteria of community of interest, facilities of communications and topographical features.

Suggested solution Mornington should be part of the Wellington electorate.

Objection 833 Brooklyn Community Association Inc.

Objects to the proposed alteration, to the present Island Bay electorate, which splits Brooklyn between the two proposed new electorates of Wellington and Rongotai.

Suggested solution The whole suburb and associated districts should be included in one electoral district.

Objection 652 R F Brooks

Objects to the proposed boundaries of the Rongotai electorate which runs from the Basin Reserve through Buckle Street, Taranaki Street, Webb Street, Brooklyn Road and Washington Avenue on the grounds that the boundary fails to give due consideration to the community of interest, facilities of communications and topographical features that are shared by the community of Nairn, Thompson and Hankey streets, and, in turn, the communities of Brooklyn and Mount Cook. Nairn Street and Thompson Street in particular have no affinity with the Rongotai Electorate. This is also true for the communities of Brooklyn and Mount Cook.

Suggested solution These communities become part of the Wellington electorate. Should this result in the population quota being exceeded, adjustments should be made in Onslow.

Objection 827 H F Sipos

Objects to proposed boundary between Rongotai and Wellington electorates. The community of the suburb of Brooklyn is divided between two electorates.

Suggested solution The Commission may be able to put all of Brooklyn in Rongotai. It has much in common with the southern coastal suburbs of Island Bay, Kilbirnie, Hataitai, Lyall Bay.
