9.5.1 Bus shelters at Te Rereatukahia Marae and Tuapiro Marae |
A discussion took place regarding the requirement for rural bus shelters: · There was a desire for two bus shelters at Te Rereatukahia Marae. · It was thought that the bus shelter at Hikurangi Road was in a dangerous position, and it was recommended that the Board support the replacement of the bus shelter in a new location, in consultation with the hapū. · It was noted that the use of second-hand bus shelters would incur costs for freighting and installation, and would have a similar cost to new Totalspan shelters. New shelters would also have a significantly longer life-span than second-hand ones. · It was suggested that there be a Community Board-led engagement process regarding the community’s requirements for bus shelters. This could be discussed at a subsequent Board meeting for a decision. · Staff would consult with hapū representatives regarding the location of the bus shelters at Te Rereatukahia Marae and Tuapiro Marae. |
Resolution KKC23-6.8 Moved: Cr R Joyce Seconded: Cr A Henry 2.

This will be funded from the Community Board Roading Account. |
It was requested that staff investigate the viability of a concrete pad and bench seat for the Park Road bus-stop near Park Lane, as where pedestrians stood was often wet and covered in long grass. |
The Meeting closed at 7.32pm.
Confirmed as a true and correct record at the Katikati Community Board meeting held on 15 November 2023.
