✨ Electoral Boundary Objections



14 JANUARY 2014 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 3 75

N10-012 b
Objection B McKay, North Western Community Association
Objects to the movement of the Waterview community from Mt Albert to the proposed Kelston electorate. This breaks up a long link between the Waterview area and the neighbouring suburbs of Point Chevalier and Mt Albert. Waterview has a much weaker link with Avondale and the Kelston electorate due to the greater distance involved.

Suggested solution: Keep the current electorate boundaries as they match well with the Local Board areas of the Auckland City Council.

N10-013 b, n
Objection K Levi
Objects to the inclusion of Avondale and Waterview within the proposed Kelston electorate and the new electorate name.

Suggested solution: Keep Avondale and Waterview in New Lynn.

N10-014 b
Objection Whau Local Board
Objects to the use of the railway line as a boundary, splitting New Lynn into two electorates. The undergrounding of the western rail line has been completed to ensure a cohesive New Lynn community.

Suggested solution: Keep the entire suburb of New Lynn in the New Lynn electorate using West Coast Road, Great North Road, Rata Street and Ash Street as the boundary.

N10-015 b
Objection Linda
Objects to the inclusion of Arawa Street and other areas of New Lynn in the proposed Kelston electorate. The New Lynn electorate offices are based in New Lynn town and Kelston is a significant distance from the community of New Lynn.

Suggested solution: Keep the New Lynn community together within the New Lynn electorate.

N10-016 b
Objection R Graham
Objects to the inclusion of the Manhattan Heights area of Glendene within the proposed Kelston electorate as it shares community links with the Henderson area. The electorate boundaries also break up the Glendene retail area between two electorates.

Suggested solution: Include the area bounded by Great North Road, Kirby Street, Glendene Avenue, Tirimoana Avenue and Te Atatu Road in the Te Atatū electorate instead of the Kelston electorate.

N11
N11-001 n
Objection C Spanhake
Objects to the electorate name as it does not adequately describe the area covered by the electorate.

Suggested solution: Name the electorate "Blockhouse Bay". Alternatively "Titirangi".

N11-002 b
Objection B Tuipotutu
Objects to the exclusion of the White Swan area from Mt Roskill, an area with which it is closely linked. The community is centred around May Road Primary School and Christ the King Church.

Suggested solution: Keep the White Swan area in Mt Roskill.

N11-003 b, h
Objection A Ryan and 109 others
Petition objecting to the inclusion of the White Swan area in the New Lynn electorate. The area is linked with Mt Roskill with shopping and schools.

Suggested solution: Use Richardson Road and White Swan Road as the boundary.
