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.

✨ Artisan Contemporary Bathroom Renovation by Superior Renovations ✨

Most old homes are not very well insulated or have good exhaust systems in bathrooms which means that they are often prone to mould. Tracey faced a similar issue with her downstairs bathroom in Titirangi.

“The bathroom was old, the shower door had started to rot and the extractor fan didn’t exist” says Tracey when asked about her initial motive to renovate. She had renovated her upstairs bathroom in the previous years and wanted this bathroom to have a similar design element.

“I didn’t want just a generic plain bathroom but wanted it to be similar to my upstairs bathroom” says Tracey. This bathroom’s design was definitely a credit to Tracey’s keen eye for design and aesthetics. This small bathroom was beautifully designed to maximise the space and make it appear larger.

The changes, which come into effect on Monday, follow the completion of a $350 million upgrade of the downtown waterfront.

The new piers has resulted in the renumbering of those at the downtown ferry terminal, Auckland Transport (AT) has advised.
