  • Waimakariri Representation Review Yes It Does Affect You – So
    Pegasus Residents Group Incorporated C/- 60 Infinity Drive Pegasus 7612 Waimakariri Representation Review Yes it does affect you – so, what can you do about it? Currently Waimakariri has four ward areas – Kaiapoi, Rangiora, Woodend-Ashley and Oxford-Eyre. At least once every six years, the Council is required to review its representation arrangements and to provide ‘fair and effective representation for individuals and communities’. Public consultation began earlier in 2015, a hearing panel considered public submissions at the beginning of October and the Council made their final decision later in the month. The Pegasus Residents’ Group Inc. did not see a need to make a submission during the public consultation process as they were happy with what was proposed; the Kaiapoi-Woodend Ward to have two Community Boards, with five elected board members to each, with one Board serving the Kaiapoi-Tuahiwi areas and the other serving the Woodend-Pegasus to Sefton areas. However, the Hearing Panel made a decision to change the advertised plan and have just one community board representing the entire area from Kaiapoi to Sefton. This community board will have 5 members from the Kaiapoi-Tuahiwi area and 3 from the Woodend-Sefton area. The new proposal has prompted the Pegasus Residents’ Group to lodge an objection to the decision and the process that led to it. PRGI encourage all residents in the area to have a say. With that in mind, an opportunity has been created for you to be part of our appeal by signing the form attached. The form can also be found at the Flat White Café, the Pegasus General Store, The Waikuku Beach Store and the Sefton Store.
