Analysis and advice
8. The
Auckland Council Road Naming Guidelines allow that where a new road needs to be
named as a result of a subdivision or development, the subdivider/developer
shall be given the opportunity of suggesting their preferred new road name/s
for the local board’s approval.
9. Auckland Council’s road naming criteria typically require that
road names reflect one of the following local themes, with the use of Māori names being actively encouraged:
- a historical
or ancestral linkage to an area;
- a particular
landscape, environmental or biodiversity theme or feature; or
- an existing
(or introduced) thematic identity in the area.
10. Assessment:
The names proposed by the Applicant have been assessed to ensure that they meet
Auckland Council’s Road Naming Guidelines and the National Addressing Standards for
road naming.
11. Confirmation:
Land Information New Zealand (LINZ) has confirmed that all of the proposed
names are acceptable and not duplicated elsewhere in the region.
12. Road
type: Drive, Way & Road are acceptable road types for the new &
extensions to the existing roads, suiting the form and layout of the road, as
per the Auckland Council Road Naming Guidelines.
13. Iwi Consultation:
All relevant local iwi were written to (via email) and invited to comment. Only
Ngaati Whanaunga, Ngati Tamaoho and Ngai Tai ki Tamaki responded, deferring
their interests to the other Ngati Whatua entities, who in turn provided no
further responses or comments.
14. No objections or additional comments were
raised by Mana Whenua for any of the other proposed names.

Māori impact statement
17. The decision sought from the
Māngere-Ōtāhuhu Local Board on this report is linked to the Auckland
Plan Outcome “A Māori identity that is Auckland’s point of difference
in the world”. The use of
Māori names for roads, buildings
and other public
places is an opportunity to publicly demonstrate Māori identity.

process.
