Members need to stand aside from decision-making when a conflict arises between their role as a Member of the Community Board and any private or other external interest they might have. This note is provided as a reminder to Members to review the matters on the agenda and assess and identify where they may have a pecuniary or other conflict of interest, or where there may be a perception of a conflict of interest.

If a Member feels they do have a conflict of interest, they should publicly declare that at the start of the meeting or of the relevant item of business and refrain from participating in the discussion or voting on that item. If a Member thinks they may have a conflict of interest, they can seek advice from the Chief Executive Officer or the Manager - Democracy Services (preferably before the meeting).

It is noted that while members can seek advice the final decision as to whether a conflict exists rests with the member.

1) TĀhuhu kŌrero / Background

An application was made by Advance Build Ltd on the 8th of February to name a road in which 7 new dwellings will be built.

The applicant proposed Te Waerenga as its road name as this name means “Clearing” or “Clearing of a new path for new gardens and growth” in relation to the work they have put in over the past few months with everything being cleared and allowing new growth to begin.

There is also a place on the farm that was named Te Waerenga and hasn’t been used in many years.  They would like to bring that name forward again and “bring it back to life.”

The suggested names were sent off to Land Information New Zealand for approval. A response was received confirming 3 out of 4 proposed road names are acceptable for use in this area and can be approved as per the Addressing Standards 2011. Cherrington Drive was declined for use as there is a road named “Cherrington Road” in Moerewa.

tŪtohunga / Recommendation

That Bay of Islands- Whangaroa Community Board name the road currently addressed at 66 Access Road, Kerikeri, as “Oak Rise”.

 

 

1) TĀhuhu kŌrero / Background

An application was made by Advanced Build Ltd on the 30th of November 2023 to name a road in which 7 new dwelling will be built.

The applicant proposed Oak Rise as its road name as there is a large oak tree situated in one of the lots bringing the road name significant meaning and impact to the surrounding area.

The suggested names were sent off to Land Information New Zealand for approval. A response was received confirming 2 out of 3 proposed road names are acceptable for use in this area and can be approved as per the Addressing Standards 2011. Lone Oak Lane was declined for use as there is a road named “Lone Gum Lane” in Kerikeri.

Te Hono consulted with Ngāti Rēhia when choosing the names for the roads. Ngāti Rēhia approved the suggested names for this area.
