LGOIMA Request: Onewa Road Clearway

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

Apparently a consultant will be finalising findings and recommendations, but I think its important for us to see the actual results. We've waited long enough.
Attached is an Official Information request that I've submitted to Auckland Transport (CAS-451510-T5G3F6). I should have a response by 29 October.


From: John Gillon (Kaipatiki Local Board)

Subject: LGOIMA: Onewa Road Clearway Consultation

To whom it may concern,
Please provide under the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA) all emails, memos, reports and any other applicable correspondence and documentation, dated from 1 November 2020 to present, relating to the results of the public consultation on options to change the clearway on Onewa Road that was undertaken from November-December 2020, including (but not limited to):

* the raw data results of the public consultation, including any feedback or commentary received through the consultation (the participants’ personal details are not required for this LGOIMA request),
* any existing charts, graphs or tabulations that have been produced in relation to the data (however, if these do not yet exist, I do not want this LGOIMA request to be delayed while they are created),
* reasons for the delay in making the results public (the public were advised that the results would be reported in March 2021),
* any estimated costings for the proposed changes, and details of any budget that has already been tagged to implementing the changes.

For reference, the Auckland Council webpage relating to the consultation is:
at.govt.nz...

The four options that were consulted on were:
* Option 1) Maintain the current parking arrangement on Onewa Road
Parking would still be available outside of peak hours when the T3 lanes aren’t operational.
* Option 2) Extend the Onewa Road clearway to all hours
No vehicles would be able to park on Onewa Road at any time.
* Option 3) Extend the clearway hours to run from 7am to 7pm on weekdays.
Vehicles would no longer be able to park on Onewa Road unless it’s after hours or during weekends.
* Option 4) Extend the clearway hours to run from 7am to 7pm everyday
Vehicles would no longer be able to park on Onewa Road unless it is after hours.

Thankyou

Cheers :)

Proposal to lower speed limits - Verran Primary School

Auckland Transport are proposing to lower the official speed limits on 800 Auckland roads, particularly around schools. Public consultation is now open.
Locally, the proposal includes lowering the speed limit from 50kph to 30kph on Verran Road, West Glade Cres and Caram Place for Verran Primary School.
Elsewhere on the North Shore, there are proposals to lower speeds around Sunnynook Primary School, Hauraki Primary School, Mairangi Bay Primary School, Murrays Bay Primary School, Long Bay Primary School and Long Bay College.

The schools that AT have chosen are those where vehicles already effectively travel at or close to 30kph anyway. Schools where engineering (such as speed humps) would be required to lower speeds, are not included in the proposal.
All other schools will be looked at once the "Land Transport Rule: Setting of Speed Limits 2021" change is implemented.

Consultation is open now until Thursday 14 November.

For more information and to give feedback on the proposal, see:
at.govt.nz...

Note: This proposal is not related to the speed-reduction trials underway around Willow Park School, Glenfield Primary School and Birkdale Primary School.

Hi lovely neighbours,

We started a kombucha business in October 2020, and as you all know Covid-19 has affected sales of small businesses including ours. We've also seen a drop in shops buying our drinks and the last blow was having a big event we were attending cancelled, so we have all this surplus kombucha and water kefir available. We would love everyone to try it and enjoy the benefits these health drinks have to offer. Our kombucha and water kefir won this year's Outstanding New Zealand Food Producer Awards and received a silver medal. We know it tastes great, but it would be a shame for all these yummy drinks not be tasted. So we are selling cases at $28 (6pk) and $55 (12pk) until stocks last. Our drinks are premium, low sugar, vegan and 100% natural. Try it for yourself! You can order online at www.isiko.co.nz... or email sales@isiko.co.nz with your order and arrange for a pickup or free delivery. We would really appreciate your support and thank you for buying local.

Price: $28

However it may take a few days for tape to be removed and hoops to be re-installed. QR codes will be installed at some high-use parks for scanning with the NZ COVID Tracer app.
You can now meet another bubble for a picnic, but please be aware of any local liquorbans!

Please remember this is still Level 3, however with the following changes:
* Your bubble can now meet one other bubble at a time outside, up to a maximum of 10 people from the two bubbles. Eg: You can invite people from another household over for dinner in your backyard, but they cannot enter your house.
* You can travel across Auckland for recreation.
* Early Learning Centres can reopen if they can handle bubbles of up to 10 children.
