Hearing concluded

The public aspect of the Hearing concluded on Thursday morning, with Qualcare delivering their right-of-reply. The three commissioners will now deliberate on what they have heard, and will deliver their decision in 15 working days. However, this may be extended, and the chairman indicated that this is quite likely to happen.

It is my understanding that the decision (and any delay) will be communicated in writing to all submitters.

Qualcare right-of-reply

The Hearing will continue next Thursday 17th July, commencing at 9:30am, for Qualcare's right-of-reply. Two hours have been allowed for this. It is to be held at the same location as the Hearing last week.

It is expected that submitters will be mailed out a copy of this sometime this week. I have an electronic copy of this - if you would like a copy (approx. 5 mb PDF file) then please contact me.

Society's submission to Hearing

Below is a link to the Society's submission to the Planning Hearing (it is in pdf format).

Action Meadowbank Submission

Qualcare hearing - Day 4

Final day of submissions, where the locals continued to give great presentations about the effect of this proposal on their properties.

Qualcare have asked for an adjournment, and will be presenting their right-of-reply in writing on Monday, and in person on a date to be determined (in about 2 weeks time).

I will post the Action Meadowbank submission here in the next few days (after I catch up on some sleep).

Qualcare hearing - Day 3

Today was the first day for submitters, with a number of local residents making submissions. The commissioners are very keen to hear about how YOU will be affected. They are also very aware that it is not often that most of us have to do something like this, so don't be afraid!

All going to plan, the hearing will conclude tomorrow (Thursday).

Qualcare Hearing - Day 2

Today was afternoon only, and Qualcare continued their evidence with the following appearing:
Bronwyn Coomer-Smit (continuation from Monday)
Jon Styles - Environmental Acoustics
Craig McGarr - Planning & Resource Management Consultant

As Qualcare will complete their evidence on Wed morning, some submitters have been brought forward. As a result Roger Williams and Mike Graham will be presenting at 10:30am on Wednesday. This is distinct from the Action Meadowbank presentation which is still scheduled to be on Thursday afternoon.

The hearing is being held at:
Committee Meeting Room
Level 15
Civic Administration Building
1 Greys Avenue
Auckland

You will need to report to Reception on the Ground Floor. Closest parking is in the Aotea Centre car park.
