Attaching a report with an update on the allocation of the initial $2.5 million
budget for the redevelopment and upgrade of the Waiheke Transfer Station and the
proposed five day collection regime for the new service.
In
2003, Council approved the upgrade and redevelopment of the transfer station at
Ostend. A $2.5 million budget was set aside. $116,000 of this was gathered by
a special targeted rate on Waiheke for the 2004/2005 financial year. This
budget went towards securing the Tahi Road site adjacent to the current transfer
station and a variety of specialist consultant services and reports required for
the consenting process.
The
initial design did not gain the necessary resource consents, however, the
information gathered during this period was given to all interested parties as
part of the recent Waiheke Island refuse recycling procurement process.
Based on the advantages and efficiencies gained from offering a five day, Monday
to Friday, collection period, this report recommends that the Board supports the
five day, Monday to Friday, refuse and recycling kerbside collection days for
Waiheke Island.
Recommending that the Board provide feedback on the proposed five day, Monday to
Friday, refuse and recycling kerbside collection routes for Waiheke Island.
