✨ Electorate Boundary Objections
106 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 3 14 JANUARY 2014
S06-005 b, h
Objection Sigjaws Trust – Neighbourhood Support
Objects to the proposed boundary with Waimakariri along the railway line as it would make more sense to divide Redwood and Northcote which are two separate communities already.
Suggested solution: Change the boundary to Main North Road.
S06-006 b, h
Objection Casebrook Intermediate School
Casebrook Intermediate is located on Veitches Road, in the Waimakariri electorate, but near the boundary with Christchurch Central and Ilam electorates. It is the preference of the school for as much of its community as possible to be covered by a single electorate. The proposed change splits off a large part of this community, along the railway line.
Suggested solution: Ideally all of Redwood to remain within Waimakariri. If this is not possible, a compromise would be for the boundary to follow Main North Road (a busy four lane carriageway) as a more logical boundary line.
S06-007 b
Objection M Barry
Objects to the proposed changes on the basis it will split the Redwood community.
S06-008 b
Objection N Wagner, MP for Christchurch Central
Objects to the loss of Mairehau to Christchurch East, as their community of interest is with St Albans, Merivale and Papanui, and to the proposed boundaries in the northern part of the electorate splitting communities.
Suggested solution: Marshland Road and Queen Elizabeth II Drive are the natural boundaries of the community. Keep Mairehau in Christchurch Central.
S06-009 b, h
Objection L Chandler
Objects to the lack of cohesive community being represented by the Christchurch Central electorate. It is being dominated by northern suburbs.
Suggested solution: The northern boundary of Christchurch Central should be moved closer to the city and extend the western boundary.
S06-010 b
Objection S Butters
Objects to North Linwood being included in Christchurch Central as demographically the area is more like Christchurch East and it will help with consistency of representation if most of the red zone is in one electorate.
Suggested solution: Between Avonside Drive and the north east side of Linwood Avenue to the north west side of Buckleys Road should be included in Christchurch East.
S06-011 b, n, h
Objection D A Unka
Objects to the boundaries for Christchurch Central being redrawn while the area is in a constant state of flux because of redevelopment following the earthquakes. Also objects to Mairehau being moved to Christchurch East as this area looks west to St Albans, Merivale and Papanui as part of their community.
Suggested solution: The boundaries for Christchurch Central to remain the same until there is a clearer picture of the city’s population for the long term.
Name the electorate “Otakaro”.
S06-012 b, n, h
Objection NZ First Party – Central Christchurch
Objects to the proposed boundary at Cranford Street which cuts St Albans in two, dividing a close knit community. Does not support a change of name, as the district covers the central city and the CBD the name “Christchurch Central” should be kept.
