REPORT TO: Commissioner
Hearing
MEETING DATE: Monday 23 July
2018
FROM: COMMITTEE SECRETARY
Christine
Hilton
SUBJECT: A
Limited Notified Resource Consent to subdivide 52 and 80 Raymond Road, Haumoana
to Create 12 Lifestyle Lots not Meeting the Minimum Land Area in the Plains
Production Zone (RMA20170355) - A & J Maurenbrecher and D & A Evans
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 This
is a covering report relating to a Limited Resource Consent application by A
& J Maurenbrecher and D & A Evans which seeks to subdivide 52 and 80
Raymond Road, Haumoana to create 12 Lifestyle lots in the Plains Production
Zone.
1.2 This
agenda can be viewed on the Council website and a reference hardcopy is held at
the Ground Floor Reception, Council’s Civic Administration Building,
Lyndon Road East, Hastings and at each of the district libraries (in Havelock
North, Flaxmere and Hastings).
1.3 For
ease of reference the recommendation from the attached Planner’s Report
is also set out below, as part of this covering report.
(Note:
The heading for the attached Planning report refers to a Hearings Committee
meeting on 8 June 2018. This is because the original report was referred
on to this current Commissioner Hearing being held on 23 July 2018).
2.0 RECOMMENDATION
That pursuant to Rules SLD25 (Subdivision) of the Proposed Hastings
District Plan (As Amended by Decisions 15 September 2015) and Sections 104,
104B, 104D, 106, 108 of the Resource Management Act 1991, consent is DECLINED
to A&J Maurenbrecher and D&A Evans to:
Subdivide 52 Raymond Road being
Lot 1 DP 22124 (CFR HBP4/839) and 80 Raymond Road being Lot 5 Deeds Plan 800 (CFR HB80/1) as follows:
52 Raymond Road
Lot 7 comprising
3000m2
Lot 8 comprising 3000m2
Lot 9 comprising 1.2 hectares
Lot 10 comprising 1.3 hectares
Lot 11 comprising 1.3 hectares
Lot 12 comprising 1.6 hectares
80 Raymond
Road
Lot 1 comprising 4800m2
Lot 2 comprising 3500m2
Lot 3 comprising 7000m2
Lot 4 comprising 3000m2
Lot 5 comprising 6500m2
Lot 6 comprising 2.3 hectares
WITH THE REASONS FOR THIS RECOMMENDATION BEING:
1. The adverse effects on the environment will be no more than minor.
2. The following persons are considered to be adversely affected by the
proposed subdivision for the reasons stated below;
|
65
Raymond Road
|
Alison Margaret McDonald, Mark Lynedoch
Graham, John Anthony McAra
|
|
56
Raymond Road
|
Shelly Jane Bridgeman, Kevin Jaffe
& Robert McLean
|
|
37
Raymond Road
|
Kim Rebecca Alebardi, Michael James
Alebardi & Emma Elizabeth Dawson
|
|
57
Raymond Road
|
BvonD Trust Limited, Fiona Myra Gunn
& Warren Bruce Gunn
|
· The visual amenity and rural character of the location
will be compromised as a direct result of the subdivision, given the cluster
effect that will occur subsequent to the subdivision and following
developments.
· The proposed subdivision is likely to result in adverse
traffic effects on these people that would be considered more than minor within
this defined area of Raymond Road where the affected persons have been used to
a lesser level of traffic movements.
3. The proposed subdivision is overall contrary to the relevant
Objectives, Policies and other provisions of the Proposed Hastings District
Plan in that:
· The
application will not retain the land based productive potential of the parent
site (objective PSMO2);
· That the subdivision is not for the purpose of a land based
productive use (PSMP1);
· The
versatile land of the subject site will be further fragmented and formalised by
the proposed subdivision (objective PPO1);
· The
subdivision does not result in the amalgamation of lots into larger land
parcels (policy PPP1);
· Approving
the subdivision will not restrict the creation of this lifestyle site to those
where the balance is amalgamated with one or more adjoining sites to form a
complying site (PPP6);
· The
application will not result in greater flexibility in options for use of the
versatile land of the subject sites (objective PPO2);
· The
subdivision will likely result in a reduced potential for the versatile land of
the parent sites to be used in a productive and sustainable manner (policy
PPP11).
4. The proposal is a
significant departure from the clear and understood policy direction for Plains
Production Zone subdivision. As such it is considered that the application will
undermine public confidence in and adversely affect the integrity of the
District Plan. In addition, it will create an adverse precedent effect.
5. The application is
inconsistent with Part II of the Resource Management Act 1991. This is
because, in the opinion of the reporting planner, the proposal;
· will not result in
the efficient use and development of the natural and physical land resource;
· will not safeguard
the Plains Production Zone soil resource; and
· will result in the
formal fragmentation of a Plains Zone site to the extent that the land will
have reduced potential to be utilised productively in the future.
As such, it is
considered that the purpose of the Act, being the sustainable management of
natural and physical resources, will be better achieved if the application is
declined.
