tol^
Option 1. Decline to grant the lease
Advantages
Option 2. Agree to grant the lease
Advantages
This would be consistent with Council's
earlier decision to agree in principle
to grant the lease.
Secure tenure for Bike Taupo to support
funding applications
Disadvantages
This would contradict Council's earlier
decision to agree in principle to grant the
lease.
The facility would not be constructed in this
location.
Disadvantages
Discussion of Options
As Council has already indicated support in principle, a decision to decline at this stage when
there has been no public objection would be difficult to justify.
CONSULTATION
Statutory consultation was undertaken in accordance with the requirements of the Reserves Act.
No submissions were received for or against.
COMMUNICATION/MEDIA
No further media communications are proposed.
CONCLUSION
The proposal has been through the statutory process and has received no objections. The
proposed location for the shelter is considered to be a good use of the area. A lease will allow Bike
Taupo to continue with the proposal and will set out future rights and responsibilities in terms of
use of this part of the reserve.
SUGGESTED RESOLUTIONS
1. That Council agrees to lease part of the Kinloch Domain to Bike TaupO for a term of
15 years for the establishment and ongoing maintenance of a shelter and associated
facilities to support the use of the Great Lake Trail.
2. That the Mayor and Chief Executive Officer be authorised to execute the Deed of
Lease.
