Karamū community project

Claire Cowles, representing the Home Foundation, and Dr Olivia Webb, representing Gap Filler, addressed the Board regarding the Karamū community project. The aim of the project is for it to be community-led and deliver either a communal amenity enhancement, a community event, or a combination of the two. The community will figure this out for themselves and through the process also get to know each other and grow community connections. 

The Board thanked Ms Cowles and Dr Webb for their presentation and work on this initiative. The Board encouraged them to contact Canterbury Neighbourhood Support who have experience in supporting community development and helping community groups to connect and collaborate.

5.1      Kissel Street - New bus stop 70011 and upgrade of existing bus stop 50380 report

Kelley and Gregory Jones, local residents, addressed the Board regarding the Kissel Street - New bus stop 70011 and upgrade of existing bus stop 50380 report (Item 7 of these minutes refers).

Mr and Mrs Jones spoke to their written submission which is included as an attachment to the staff report in the meeting agenda, and emphasised their opinion that the proposed location for the new bus stop is flawed and should be moved further down the street.

At the end of the deputation the Chairperson thanked Mr and Mrs Jones for their presentation.

7.   Kissel Street - New bus stop 70011 and upgrade of existing bus stop 50380

Board Comment

The Board took the opportunity to ask questions of the Passenger Transport Engineer and also discussed the comments made by Kelley and Gregory Jones during their deputation (Item 5.1 of these minutes refers).

The Board heard that the rationale for the proposed new bus stop location is that the deep dish kerb and channel is due to be replaced with flat kerb and channel at that site. When this is done it will provide a more accessible facility for passengers with disabilities. The site further down the street might not be able to have its kerb and channel replaced due to budget constraints.   

The Chairperson called for a mover for the original officer recommendation and none came forward. 

The Chairperson then proposed that the Board approve the upgrades to the existing bus stop on the east side of Kissel Street, but not proceed with the new bus stop on the west side of the street. The Board adopted this proposal.

The Board noted that the proposed new bus stop could be re-visited after the work on the kerb and channel has been completed. The Board encouraged staff to explore whether the kerb and channel upgrade could be extended to the alternative proposed location further down Kissel Street.
