✨ Electoral Boundary Objections
90 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 3 14 JANUARY 2014
N17
N17-001 b
Objection M Crooks
Objects to the boundary between Maungakiekie and Tāmaki using the busy thoroughfare of Lunn Avenue (between Marua Road and Ngahue Drive). By splitting the road between two representatives neither will advocate on behalf of commuters and residents regarding traffic issues.
Suggested solution: Move the boundary to follow the back boundaries of properties in the area between Lunn Ave and Marua Road. Alternatively, move the boundary to follow the edge of the old quarry face.
N17-002 b
Objection V Hayes
Supports the proposed boundaries for Ellerslie, however the Stonefields area could be moved back into the Maungakiekie electorate as it has been in the past.
Suggested solution: Move the Stonefields subdivision into Maungakiekie.
N17-003 b
Objection A White
Supports the proposed electorate boundary changes in Ellerslie. Would also like Stonefields, an area linked to Ellerslie through shared facilities such as childcare and businesses, included in Maungakiekie.
Suggested solution: Bring Stonefields into the Maungakiekie electorate.
N17-004 b
Objection C Moffat
Objects to the division of the Ellerslie community in the proposed boundaries.
Suggested solution: Use the Ellerslie Racecourse as the electorate boundary. Include Stonefields in the electorate and return all of Tāmaki to the Tāmaki electorate. Use Manukau Road as the western electorate boundary.
N17-005 b
Objection D Krum, Councillor – Auckland Council
Supports the unification of Ellerslie in one electorate to ensure cohesive representation. The Ellerslie community defines itself south of Lunn Avenue, which is represented in the proposed boundaries.
Objects to the exclusion of Stonefields from Maungakiekie as it has more in common and community links with Ellerslie and Mt Wellington.
Objects to Tāmaki and Panmure being included in Maungakiekie, as their communities are closely aligned with Glen Innes and should be in the Tāmaki electorate.
The whole area of Onehunga and Royal Oak has a strong affinity for and around One Tree Hill. This area should remain in a single cohesive electorate.
Suggested solution: Include Stonefields in the Maungakiekie electorate. Use the Auckland Council Ward boundaries (Queenstown Road and Pah Road) as the western boundary for Maungakiekie.
N17-006 b, h
Objection Ellerslie Residents Association Inc
Objects to the inclusion of Penrose, Westfield and Southdown in the Maungakiekie electorate as they are not connected to the community. Having Ellerslie unified in the electorate is a good step, but Onehunga should not be excluded from the electorate as it has similar issues and concerns, likewise Stonefields.
Suggested solution: Include Onehunga and/or Stonefields and remove Southdown, Penrose and Westfield from the electorate.
