4          Petitions

 

4.1

Petition - Save the Paturoa Kauri

 

Member DE Taipari entered the meeting at 9.43 am.

 

 

 

Aprilanne Bonar and Winnie Charlesworth, were in attendance to present a petition containing over 26,003 signatures, regarding:

 

“Save the Paturoa Kauri:

We urge you to stop a healthy 500 year old Kauri tree and a 300 year old Rimu tree from being felled at 40 Paturoa Rd, Titirangi.

Why is this important?

At a time when our forest is losing Kauri trees to Kauri dieback disease, we need to do all we can to save the healthy trees to protect this endemic species. I am not anti-development, however, the developer could move the intended building and protect these trees. The RMA was never designed to allow developers to be able to destroy trees that have significant ecological value. The RMA legislation has loopholes that will destroy our forests if change does not happen.”

 

A copy of the petition was provided and has been placed on the official record of the meeting.

 

 

 

Resolution number AUC/2015/31

MOVED by Chairperson PA Hulse, seconded by Cr LA Cooper:
