Ki runga, ki

Rire, rire hau…pai marire

MOVED by Member K Matthews, seconded by Chairperson C
Handley:
That the Waiheke Local Board:
a)
encourages
Auckland Council as the sole shareholder of Ports of Auckland (POAL) to

sustainable development at the ports which embraces the challenges
articulated through successive Hauraki Gulf Forum reports including
sedimentation through the Hauraki Gulf
b)
encourages
Auckland Council to direct the board of POAL to minimize dredging and to seek
alternative land based options for the disposal of consented dredged
materials.
c)
supports
the Protect our Gulf appeal against Ports of Auckland 35- year consent to
dredge and dump 250,000 m3 in the marine environment.
d)
asks
Auckland Council to seek balanced independent analysis of both POAL’s
requirement for dredging and the dumping, given cultural and environmental
effects of both, and takes responsibility for providing leadership on this
issue.
