Local groups in west Auckland are “bitterly disappointed” after resource consent was granted in relation to the replacement of a water treatment plant. They claim Auckland Council ignored expert advice on the risks for the project to spread kauri dieback disease.

Watercare had applied for resource consent to carry out earthworks and vegetation removal for the upcoming replacement of the Huia Water Treatment Plant.

Titirangi Protection Group’s (TPG) spokeswoman Belynda Groot said “it’s totally wrong” for consent to be given after abundant evidence from kauri dieback and ecology experts at the resource consent hearing in April this year advised against the build.

Proposal: Normanton Street, Glenfield
Auckland Transport is proposing to install no-stopping yellow lines on the bend on Normanton Street to improve driver and pedestrian safety.
The changes will result in the removal of 10 on-street parking spaces.

From AT: "We have received complaints from residents who reported poor driver visibility when vehicles are parked on both sides of the bend. This proposal will increase pedestrian and driver safety by ensuring drivers have a clear line of sight and that they can navigate the bend safely without having to manoeuvre around parked vehicles. While we acknowledge that this will remove on street parking from visitors to Normanton Reserve, there is a significant amount of available parking further down Normanton Road away from the bend."

Consultation is now open until Friday 9th July.
