Take notice that the Carterton District Council proposes to take, under the provisions of section 23 of the Public Works Act 1981, the land described in the Schedule to this notice (“Land”).

The Land is required for a pedestrian accessway and service lane. It is intended to use the land for a pedestrian access and provide vehicle access to an adjoining property.

The reasons why the Carterton District Council considers it reasonably necessary to take the land are as follows:

1. The Land in Schedule 1 contains existing formed and sealed access, which provides vehicle access to an adjoining property;
2. The Land in Schedule 2 provides a pedestrian access for the public linking Hereford Drive with High Street, Carterton.
3. All of the Land contains existing Council owned infrastructure (wastewater and water supply); and
4. The last legal proprietor of the Land, Joseph Ingley, died intestate in December 1928.

Any person has the right to object and may send a written objection to the Registrar, Environment Court Registry, 5th Floor, District Court Building, 49 Ballance Street, Wellington 6011, or by post to DX SX10044, Wellington, within 20 working days after the date of publication of this notice.

If any objection is made in accordance with this notice, a public hearing will be held with the right of the objector to appear and be heard personally, unless the objector otherwise requires, and each objector will be informed of the time and place of the hearing.

Any person requiring further information in respect of this advice should contact Solitaire Roberts, Planning and Regulatory Services Manager, Carterton District Council, 28 Holloway Street, Carterton 5713. Postal Address: PO Box 9, Carterton 5743. Telephone: (06) 379 4048.
