✨ Electoral Boundary Objections




76 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 3 14 JANUARY 2014

N11-004 b
Objection G Taylor and 73 others
Petition objecting to the proposed boundary including properties between the south-western motorway and Richardson Road in the New Lynn electorate. Their community of interest lies with Wesley and Mt Roskill (school and shopping areas).

Suggested solution: Use Richardson Road as the boundary.

N11-005 b, h
Objection New Zealand Labour Party
Objects to the New Lynn / Kelston boundary running along the railway line as it splits the New Lynn community. The undergrounding of the railway line was designed to create a cohesive New Lynn community. The New Lynn and Avondale communities are closely linked and should remain in one electorate, and the Whau Local Board of the Auckland Council would be best served by having only one MP to liaise with.

Suggested solution: Place the boundary along West Coast Road, Great North Road and Rata Street – following the main traffic thoroughfare.

N11-006 b, n
Objection B Morgan
Objects to the exclusion of the New Lynn town centre from the proposed New Lynn electorate.

Suggested solution: Change the name to one that is central to the electorate such as "Blockhouse Bay", "Green Bay" or "New Windsor" or one that describes its geographic position, such as "Southern Harbour" or "Auckland Southwest".

If the name is not changed propose moving the northern boundary up to Great North Road using Portage Road as a joining boundary to include the New Lynn town within the electorate.

N12
N12-001 b
Objection R Thomson
Objects to the movement of Grey Lynn and Westmere to the proposed Mt Albert electorate. These communities share interests with Central Auckland, not Mt Albert.

Suggested solution: Keep the existing electorate boundaries.

N12-002 b
Objection P Bieder
Similar to N12-001

Suggested solution: Similar to N12-001

N12-003 b, h
Objection G Dunster
Objects to the exclusion of Grey Lynn from the Auckland Central electorate. The suburb has no common links with Mt Albert and the western connected communities in the electorate.

Suggested solution: Use the north-western motorway as a boundary between the two electorates.

N12-004 b
Objection S Carey
Objects to the proposal to split the Grey Lynn community and placing part within the Mt Albert electorate, which shares no common links with Grey Lynn.

Suggested solution: Use the north-western motorway as the divide between Auckland Central and Mt Albert.
