    Road safety on Donald Bruce Road was raised as an issue by the Te Huruhi school Board of Trustees and the Waiheke Community Board in June 2005.

    Traffic and Roading services have reviewed the previous footpath plans and found them to be unsuitable due to physical changes that have occurred since the plans preparation.

    Subsequent meetings between Traffic and Roading services, the Te Huruhi Primary School Principal and members of the School Board have lead to the development of a four new options for the site.

    Recommending that the Board receives this report, gives it's support for the development of the proposed option and that the Board places the proposed Donald Bruce Road footpath on the 'new footpath priority list' so that the project can be programmed for installation.

    Jane Rollin

     

    Ward Manager

    21 June 2006

    Delaine Jones and Francis Evans have submitted a petition containing approximately 316 signatures with the following prayer:

    Is micro-chipping dogs just the beginning? Anyone who appreciates democratic freedom and creative thinking will be asking serious questions about the value and wisdom of this bill.

    The recent decision by Parliament to pass a law that all dogs are to be given a quick injection of a microchip to track them and identify them should they stray is another example where suspect technology is entering our lives, our homes, and in time, our bodies. ID cards like the one the British are introducing and then ID chips in our bodies. Is this what we have to accept here in New Zealand if our representatives follow international trends. When will we say enough is enough is enough?

    This petition is going to be circulated on the Island for two weeks and will be presented to Parliament in due course. If you feel strongly to support Waiheke becoming microchip free, then join us to stand against this issue.

    Recommending that the petition be received.
