Councillor Niki Mealings and Councillor Neville Atkinson abstained from voting on this item due to a potential conflict with their roles on the Waimakariri District Plan Hearing Panel. 3. During the discussion on this item various Committee members noted their appreciation and acknowledgement to all the staff and the Hearing Panel members who contributed to the collaborative process that had been followed in developing the Spatial Plan. Members also provided their strong support for its adoption. 4. Cr Templeton was interested to understand the rationale for use of the term “Broad’ in relation to Greenfield and Urban Sprawl. Staff provided advice that they used the definition and terminology reflected in the NPS-UD. 5. Cr Southwark sought clarity on the insertion of “quality” in relation to Opportunity 4. It was noted that this was inclusive and a minor grammatical change can be made to better reflect this in the final wording. |
