At the June meeting, the Committee considered an item regarding the vehicle entry into Centennial Park, off Station Road. The Committee resolved to install a vehicle crossing into the drainage reserve entrance to prevent vehicles from driving over the verge in front of private property, and also requested information regarding the possible construction of a roadway and vehicle turnaround to be associated with the crossing. The intention is to allow for access primarily ambulances when necessary, rather than provide a carpark.

RESOLVED

THAT staff seek comment from the Centennial Park Board and the immediate adjoining property owners to the Park of the proposal to construct an accessway and turn around from Station Road, Paeroa, and that funding of $35,000 be included in the Draft Annual Plan for 2005/06.

Kennedy Street/Hill Street

The Drainage Manager reported on progress towards addressing an overflow of water onto private properties at the location of Kennedy Street/Hill Street. The cause of the problem has been identified as an undersized entry to an existing chamber, together with a section of pipe in bad repair between this entry and a manhole that was recently uncovered. The estimate for the remedial works in this location, and the extension of an existing line to the north is $3,550.

RESOLVED

THAT a 9m section of 300mm diameter pipe with an improved inlet be constructed to the manhole near the intersection of Hill and Kennedy Streets, and an 11.5m extension of the line to the north, be approved at an estimated cost of $3,550.
