N04-015 b Objection J Newton
Objects to the inclusion of Whatipu, Huia, Cornwallis, Parau, Laingholm, Woodlands Park and Waima in Helensville. These areas have different needs from Helensville and Coatesville.

N04-016 b Objection L Tanguay
Objects to the inclusion of Huia and Laingholm in Helensville. The beaches close to Titirangi community. These areas have no connection or community of interest with Helensville.

Suggested solution: Huia and Laingholm should be in New Lynn.

N04-017 b Objection J Henderson
Objects to the suburbs south and west of Titirangi being included in Helensville as they are not connected with Helensville and are related to Titirangi.

Suggested solution: Include the suburbs of Waima, Woodlands Park, Parau, Waiatarua, Laingholm, Huia, Karekare, Piha and Te Henga in the same electorate as Titirangi. To compensate, the area around Konini could be removed from New Lynn.

N04-018 b, n, h Objection Waitakere Ranges Local Board
Objects to the amalgamation of the rural, coastal and bush communities of the Waitakere Ranges into the Helensville electorate. The proposed electorate is not well supported by facilities of communication or a community of interest.

Suggested solution: Keep the name "Waitakere" for the electorate.
Adjust the boundaries to reflect the connections between west Auckland’s rural and urban communities.

N04-019 b Objection A J Turner
Objects to the erosion of the west Auckland bush reserve and suburban identity by including west Auckland in the Helensville electorate with Coatesville, Dairy Flat and Helensville, which are farming communities.

Suggested solution: The proposed solution needs to recognise west Auckland’s immediate suburban neighbours currently in the New Lynn electorate.

N04-020 b Objection Laingholm District Citizens Association
Objects to the inclusion of the South Waitakere Ranges heritage area in the Helensville electorate because of the distance to the town of Helensville and because there is no connection or community of interest with the Helensville area. This area’s connections are with New Lynn.

Suggested solution: Keep this area in New Lynn.

N04-021 b, n Objection M O’Halloran
