Electoral Boundary Objections




14 JUNE 2007 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 65 1735

N41 Otaki

N41 001 n Objection G R Seymour

Objects to the omission of the macron in the name of the proposed Otaki electorate.

Suggested solution That the electorate name be spelt ‘Ōtaki’.

N42 Mana

N42 001 b Objection M R Henderson & 2 others

Objects to the boundary between the proposed electorates of Mana and Ohariu running down the centreline of residential suburban streets. This divides people who share a community of interest.

Suggested solution Redraw the boundary to pass through neighbouring areas of low or no residential population density. Two mapped options provided.

N42 002 b, h Objection E M Henderson

Similar to N42/001.

Suggested solution Similar to N42/001.

N42 003 b Objection D J M Perry

Objects to the inclusion of parts of Tawa in the proposed Mana electorate, as this splits the community of interest of the suburb.

Suggested solution Use the boundary between Porirua and Wellington cities as the electorate boundary.

N43 Rimutaka

N43 001 n, h Objection New Zealand Labour Party

Objects to the name ‘Rimutaka’ for the proposed electorate as the name is only relevant for the northern part of the electorate and has negative associations with the name of Rimutaka Prison.

Suggested solution Name the electorate ‘Hutt North’.

N43 002 b, h Objection New Zealand Labour Party

Objects to the inclusion of Belmont in the proposed Rimutaka electorate. This area shares a community of interest and transport links with the Hutt South electorate.

Also objects to the shift of the southern boundary at Naenae to Wingate.

Suggested solution Include Belmont in the Hutt South electorate. Shift the current Rimutaka southern boundary to include only that part of Naenae north of Rata Street.
