Today the Kaipātiki Local Board received an update on planned track changes to protect kauri from dieback disease. We’ve managed to secure 47% of the total Auckland-wide kauri budget to be spent in the Kaipātiki area on upgrading tracks and installing cleaning stations!

Thanks to the Shore Action team on the Local Board for advocating for this budget over the last 2 years, while also pre-emptively closing tracks to protect the kauri. A formal update will come to the Local Board’s September meeting detailing the proposed changes and their timeframes.

Help secure and shape our local parks!

John Gillon from John Gillon - Kaipatiki Local Board

Every park in New Zealand must have a Reserve Management Plan to be covered by the Reserves Act 1977, but many of those in the Kaipātiki Local Board area do not have one. This leaves those parks in a vulnerable state, without guidance for the future, and potentially less secure from being sold.

Every park in New Zealand must have a Reserve Management Plan to be covered by the Reserves Act 1977, but many of those in the Kaipātiki Local Board area do not have one. This leaves those parks in a vulnerable state, without guidance for the future, and potentially less secure from being sold.
So the Kaipātiki Local Board has initiated a "Local Parks Management Plan" to cover ALL parks in the Kaipātiki Local Board area and convert them all into reserves.

There are 3 steps in this process where you can have your say:
(1) All 700 parcels of parkland were reviewed to ensure that they were classified correctly under the Reserves Act. This was a huge job! The proposed changes are out for consultation until 30 August (see attached notice for more info).
(2) We are seeking feedback on what details should be included in the Local Parks Management Plan. This may be an idea that you have for a local park, or something existing that you want to remain. Consultation closes on 30 August.
Have your say here: www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz...
(3) When all feedback has been collected, the draft plan will be written and put out for consultation. This is scheduled to happen early next year.

Auckland Transport is proposing an evening clearway and No Stopping At All Times (broken yellow lines) parking restrictions on Wairau Road, between the Glenfield Rd and Hogans Rd intersections.

Changes include:
* A Clear Way between 306 and 334 Wairau Road, Monday Friday, 4pm 6.30pm. This will allow the westbound lane to flow freely during peak times while minimising permanent parking removal.
* No Stopping At All Times parking restrictions approaching the intersection with Glenfield Road to reduce unsafe lane changing when the left turn lane is blocked by parked cars.
* No Stopping At All Times parking restrictions opposite the intersection with Ellice Road to make sure the westbound through lane is kept clear.
* Parking restrictions next to the bus stops to make sure there is enough space for buses to manoeuvre in and out of traffic safely.

From AT:
“Our proposal responds to a request from the local community to address the issue of parked cars restricting traffic movements along Wairau Road. We expect these parking changes to greatly improve the flow of traffic, particularly during the evening peak , and welcome your feedback on our proposal. While our proposal is aimed at improving traffic flow along Wairau Road, we recognise that these parking restrictions may impact people who live along the street. That is why we want to hear from you. Your community feedback will help us decide the final shape of these parking changes.”

Feedback closes Tuesday 20 August 2019.
Please submit your feedback at the below link, or comment below and I will pass it on:

Recently The Mayor and Councillors adopted changes to the Dog Management Bylaw and Policy which take effect from 1 November 2019.
While I'm happy for dog owners, I do have concerns with the following two changes:

* Standardisation of Summer/Winter rules across Auckland:
There will now be one time period applied to most beaches over the Summer period - dogs will now be allowed on beaches after 5pm (the proposal was 7pm and most North Shore beaches are currently 6pm or 6:30pm). The new dates for the Summer period are 1 December until 1 March.
However, not only does this change strip the ability of Local Boards to reflect their community's views on local beach times, but it went against 59% of submitters (and most Local Boards) who wanted to retain local variation in times (only 34% of submitters wanted a regional rule).

* The new default rule for parks is on-leash:
In theory nothing should change, as the default rule only applies to parks NOT listed in the new "schedule 2" list that should include every park that is currently off-leash. However I've found that there are still errors and omissions in the Kaipatiki list, such as the "Bayview Community Centre​ and Creche" being listed as an off-leash area(!), Elliott Reserve referred to as "Kellaway Reserve" (which is in Dannemora), and the roads "Cobblestone Lane" and "Fernwood Grove" being listed as off-leash, instead of the parks "Cobblestone Lane Reserve" and "Fernwood Grove Reserve".
This rule would have been better to leave as it was, with off-leash the default and listing on-leash areas.

To accommodate the above changes to the dog rules, $1 million has been earmarked for new park signs or changes to existing signs.
