Important Meeting 27 July 2010

Update on Onehunga Foreshore Restoration Developments

 

It has been 11 months since contractors were invited by ACC to prepare designs and cost outcomes for the proposed 11 hectare Onehunga Foreshore Restoration project.

The timetable set for the project back in August 2009 has not been achieved and potentially places the project at risk as it enters the transition from Auckland City Council to the new Auckland Super City.

Jim Jackson, Chairman of the Onehunga Enhancement Society ("TOES") says "It is critical that this restoration project which has been fought for over a long period of time by our community continues into the new super city structure in a transparent and rational manner. I have very real concern that the project could fall "off the radar" and our community needs to ensure that doesn't happen".

It is essential that all TOES members and the wider community attend this meeting.

Politicians from both central and local government will be attending along with key community representatives to this public meeting which is being held at the Onehunga RSA on the corner of The Mall & Princess St.

The public meeting will be an opportunity to update the community on the current position and the way forward.

  • Time:     7pm-8pm
  • When:  Tuesday, 27th July
  • Venue: Onehunga RSA, 67 Princes Street

 

We look forward to seeing those who are able to make it to the meeting.

Please forward this email to anyone else you think will be interested in attending.
