I would like to congratulate that handful of people who established our U3A for people who could not be accommodated in the existing Auckland U3As of Remuera, Howick and St Heliers. With a great vision, with energy and enthusiasm, they created a dedicated community of learners that grew from modest beginnings to become one of the most successful U3As in New Zealand over the past ten years. Reaching the important milestone of the 10th anniversary, gives us an opportunity to look back, take stock and plan for the future.

Please provide your comments on the Kohimarama Comprehensive Care Retirement Village Application Auckland Council’s comments on the Kohimarama Comprehensive Care Retirement Village (KCCRV) are broken down into the following categories, which the council considers to be most relevant to this proposal: • Land use • Residential amenity values • Urban design • Landscape • Traffic (including Auckland Transport comment) • Development engineering (including comments by Watercare and Healthy Waters) Land use The application size falls within the Mixed Housing Urban (MHU) zone of the Auckland Unitary Plan (AUP). The MHU zone seeks to enable a variety of housing types at higher densities, including integrated residential developments such as retirement villages. Accordingly, the council supports the principle of a retirement village on the site. Residential amenity values Due to the exceedance of the height standard for the zone (approximately twice the permitted 11 metre height standard), adverse effects on the neighbouring residents to the south and east of the site may be greater than that reasonably anticipated from a development within the MHU zone.

  • Delivering Innovative Infrastructure to Provide a Cleaner and Safer Environment for Our Communities
    DELIVERING INNOVATIVE INFRASTRUCTURE TO PROVIDE A CLEANER AND SAFER ENVIRONMENT FOR OUR COMMUNITIES Abstract Each day, Watercare handles around 378,000,000 litres of Auckland wastewater. In doing this, Watercare manages and minimises the impact of their operations on the environment and embeds sustainability into their business. The Kohimarama wastewater pump station which services a dense urban suburb overflows approximately 8 times per year into the Kohimarama Beach, via a local stream. To improve water quality in the receiving watercourse and comply with Watercare’s Network Discharge Consent for overflows and provide for population growth, Watercare invested NZ$11.5M in new infrastructure. This paper will demonstrate how Watercare, MWH and Tonkin+Taylor (Designers) and Fulton Hogan (Contractor) worked collaboratively to deliver innovative and cost-effective infrastructure whilst minimising the impact on the local community, mitigating project risks, complied with consent requirements and consistently scored a '1' (highest) for environmental audits during construction. The site was a multipurpose environment used for recreational and public activities. This project is showcased as one of engineering excellence. Engineering innovation delivered multiple savings including a New Zealand 'first' with the design and installation of the Biogest® vacuum flushing system. This is a proprietary self-cleaning facility to keep the tank free sewage debris. Authors’ details Mohamed Imtiaz, Principal Engineer – Design Delivery, Watercare Services

  • NEWSLETTER – AUGUST / HERE-TURI-KŌKĀ 2019 Greetings from the President
    P.O. Box 87291, Meadowbank, Auckland, 1742. Email: [email protected] President: Gay Williams Secretary: Janet Crawford Ph. 524-7221 Ph. 948-1192 www.u3ameadowbank.nz NEWSLETTER – AUGUST / HERE-TURI-KŌKĀ 2019 Greetings from the President Our July meeting was well attended (despite being the morning after the overnight Cricket World cup final!). We had a fascinating visit to the Southern Ocean among whales, penguins, seals and icebergs with our Vice president Cecilie Rushton. What a wonderful part of the world to visit. Several members mentioned they were inspired to consider going on a trip there too! Our main speaker was Professor Helen Danesh-Meyer who presented a fascinating overview of diseases of the eye – especially Cataract, and Glaucoma. With the aid of beautiful slides, she outlined the causes and treatment of these common conditions – Cataract surgery - the safest eye surgery, and Glaucoma, the silent disease – the leading cause of preventable blindness in New Zealand. Helen outlined some risks and lifestyle activities we can all take to manage these conditions, and there were handouts to help us understand the main points. Of concern she mentioned that over 50% of the population are unaware that they have Glaucoma and we all need to have Glaucoma checks regularly especially if there is a family history of Glaucoma. There were several Questions from the floor, and many members commented on the value of the presentation. For further information go to www. glaucoma.org.nz and join Glaucoma NZ (for free) to keep up to date with developments. Remember the U3A network meeting on 30 August – sharing transport and supporting two of our members presenting at this event.
