Million-dollar dumps: Boating club struggles to maintain heritage clubhouse due to 1923 law

Caroline Williams Reporter from North Shore Times

In its heyday, the Takapuna Boating Club’s (TBC) Bayswater clubhouse was used for all sorts of social gatherings, including regattas, dances, ratepayer polling, card game nights, school reunions, wrestling and boxing tournaments.

In its heyday, the Takapuna Boating Club’s (TBC) Bayswater clubhouse was used for all sorts of social gatherings, including regattas, dances, ratepayer polling, card game nights, school reunions, wrestling and boxing tournaments.

But since the TBC shifted to Hurstmere Rd inTakapuna around the late 1960s, and again to its current clubhouse on The Strand around 1990, the three-storey Bayswater clubhouse has fallen out of use and become what the club’s vice commodore James Jordan described as “a bit of an eyesore”.

Despite its rugged appearance and the need for some repairs to the decking, the building is structurally sound, and the TBC has ambitious plans to restore the building to its former glory.

However, the Auckland Harbour Board and Takapuna Borough Council Empowering Act 1923 limits what the building can be used for.

It is hoped a change of wording in the Act would allow the rest of the building to be used by tenants offering other activities to help provide the club with a small income to help cover the building’s expenses and future maintenance, while improving the public‘s use of the area.

Hi Auckland,

How are you commemorating Anzac Day? What stories have been passed down through your whānau?

April 25 marks the 106-year anniversary of the Gallipoli landings, one of the most costly campaigns for the Allied Forces during World War I.

Anzac dawn and commemorative services up and down the country are scheduled to get underway after widespread cancellations last year, due to the nation being under Alert Level 4 restrictions.

The NZDF have advised of a reduced presence of military personnel at Anzac services due to deployment at MIQ facilities.

You can check out where the Anzac day services are on this interactive map on the RSA website.

Feel free and share your stories below and don't forget to type NFP if you don't want your comments used your local community paper.

From Kauri Road to Soldiers Bay Place

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

Today the Kaipatiki Local Board unanimously approved a change in name for the southern part of Kauri Road (off Balmain Road) to "Soldiers Bay Place".
For a number of years, many of the local residents have been having problems with emergency services, couriers, friends and relatives not being able to find their properties due to Kauri Road being split in the middle by bush. There is no vehicle access to each half of the road from the other, so while they are technically the same road on council plans, in reality they are distinct roads. Today we have solved that issue by renaming the southern portion.
Soldiers Bay Place was the preferred name of residents, as the road is located near Soldiers Bay and that would further assist in their addresses being located.

Note: Those residents that are currently on Kauri Road but use a Balmain Road address will be able to choose whether to opt for the new Soldiers Bay Place address or keep their current Balmain Road address. Council staff will be contacting them to discuss this prior to the new street signage being installed.

Adrian Tyler and I have been working on this issue on behalf of residents for a long time now, and it is great to finally make it a reality :)

One of our most popular projects for our Level 4 Advanced Cookery students is to design a three-course menu, costed to a budget and then prepared for a friend to savour.

The three-course menu includes a fish dish, involving the filleting of a fish, freshly made ribbon pasta and dessert - all with a Mediterranean theme. Take a look at this week's impressive efforts enjoyed by the Advanced students. They then serve the meal for their own guest and also get to sit down and eat with them.

Here are some photos of the creative dishes prepared for the Mediterranean Luncheon.
