Silt fencing has now been installed between the boatyard and the dinghy ramp at Little Shoal Bay Reserve. This follows the confirmed contamination of the soil in the boatyard area, likely to be from historic boat maintenance activities on the site.
The fencing will help to reduce contaminated sediment washing off the site, especially with future king tides.
Remediation options are being investigated. The Kaipatiki Local Board will be considering the future of this space in due course.

The below roads are due to be re-sealed in January. Note that these dates could change, so keep an eye on your letterbox for a notice.
Following the Kaipatiki Local Board's resolution to Auckland Transport opposing the downgrade of suburban asphalt roads to chip-seal, I'm pleased that we've been able to secure the new "rejuvenation" treatment for some roads.

This new treatment extends the life of asphalt surfaces and was trialled in Unsworth Heights. While it is more expensive than chipseal, it is cheaper than asphalt and provides a similar standard of surface, so is a very good compromise. Unfortuantely it can't be applied to all roads, and it can't be applied to roads that have already been downgraded to chip seal :(

Upcoming Chip Seal:
Melba Street, Beach Haven - 11 January
Ayton Drive, Totara Vale - 12 January
Colin Wild Place, Glenfield - 12 January
Girrahwheen Drive, Totara Vale - 12 January
Greenridge Court, Glenfield - 12 January

Upcoming Rejuvenation Seal:
Havenwood Place, Northcote - 13 January
Heathglen Place, Bayview - 13 January
Palmerston Road, Birkenhead - 13 January
Richmond Ave, Northcote Point - 13 January
Vincent Road, Northcote Point - 13 January
Wanita Place, Totara Vale - 13 January

Recently Completed Chip Seal:
Dudding Ave, Northcote
Glenwood Place, Birkenhead
Holyoake Place, Birkenhead
Kyle Road, Bayview
Lancaster Road, Beach Haven
Lynn Road, Bayview
Teal Cres, Beach Haven
Willow Ave, Birkenhead
