Local Board views on Private Plan Change 72, McKinney Road, Warkworth

 

Peter Vari – Team Leader Planning and Robert Scott – Consultant planner were in attendance for this item.

 

Resolution number RD/2022/110

MOVED by Chairperson P Pirrie, seconded by Deputy Chairperson B Houlbrooke:  

That the Rodney Local Board:

a)         do not support Private Plan Change 72 by Aztek Projects Limited for proposed rezoning of land at McKinney Road from Future Urban Zone to Residential – Mixed Housing Suburban Zone for the following reasons:

i)           the proposed development will occur ahead of adequate road safety and traffic infrastructure upgrades being implemented, specifically the proposed intersection upgrade of State Highway One and McKinney Road, not currently planned or proposed to be funded until 2028 – 2032, including critical roading upgrades in the Warkworth area, such as the Hill Street intersection and McKinney Road itself

ii)         the proposed development will occur ahead of adequate wastewater infrastructure being available or suitable for the final density proposed, creating a risk that future homeowners will not have a wastewater network to connect to

iii)     a lack of safe accessible pedestrian and cycling provisions that will          connect with existing footpath networks to The Grange commercial          centre, including those being constructed by the Rodney Local Board on          McKinney Road and Wech Drive

iv)        the proposed plan change is not consistent with the Rodney Greenways Plan (Pūhoi to Pakiri) which envisages walking and cycling provisions along McKinney Road and connecting to John Andrew Drive (refer to map 4, page 26, Section 3.7, as attached) and see full report at:  https://www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/about-auckland-council/how-auckland-council-works/local-boards/all-local-boards/rodney-local-board/docspuhoigreenways/puhoi-pakiri-greenways-part-one.pdf

b)      delegate authority to the Rodney Local Board chairperson to appoint a local board member to speak to the local board views at a hearing on Private Plan Change 72, if it is considered necessary by the local board.
