EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On 26 March 2013 Council considered a proposal to undertake a boundary adjustment by means
of an exchange of reserve under Section 15 of the Reserves Act. The purpose of the exchange is
to allow the property at 6 Mahoe Street to have frontage to Crown Road.
Council agreed in principle to the exchange, and gave approval for the intent to exchange reserve
land to be publicly notified in accordance with the Reserves Act. The proposed exchange was
notified on 5 April 2013 and the submission period closed on 6 May 2013. No submissions for or
against the proposed exchange of lands were received.
As there have been no objections to the proposed exchange, the recommended action is to
proceed with the exchange process. This will require authorisation of the exchange by the
Department of Conservation, and subdivision of both parcels of land to create the areas that are to
be subject to the exchange.
SUGGESTED RESOLUTION
That the Taupo District Council hereby requests that the Minister of Conservation authorise
the exchange of 80m2 of local purpose (utility) reserve on Crown Road being part Section
368 SO 46744, for 80m2 of land at 6 Mahoe Street, Taupo being part Lot 9 DPS 82954.
