<strong>Mangatawa</strong> Drain Flood Bypass and TEM Storm<strong>water</strong> AEE<br />
8.3 Directly Affected Landowners<br />
All landowners on the northern and southern side of the <strong>Mangatawa</strong> drain and Maranui swale from chainage<br />
5900 to 10800 were contacted and offered a meeting <strong>for</strong> consultation about the potential effects from this<br />
application. Meetings were held between 11th and 22nd of February 2009 with individual landowners at a site,<br />
date and time of their choice.<br />
Two Cottage meetings were held on the 4th and 9th of December 2008 with landowners adjacent to the<br />
project area to in<strong>for</strong>m them of the latest developments in the project, how these will affect them and <strong>for</strong> the<br />
technical team to consider their concerns. Only 3 people attended in total and they expressed positive<br />
comments about the project. These landowners were also invited to the public Open Day held on Thursday 4th<br />
December 2008.<br />
The names of the land owners invited to cottage meeting can be provided if required.<br />
8.4 Individual Landowners<br />
Individual landowners directly affected by the existing drainage were consulted in separate meetings. NZTA<br />
has endeavoured to address all the concerns that arose at these meetings as well as providing in<strong>for</strong>mation.<br />
These landowners were also invited to the public Open Day held on Thursday 4th December 2008. All invitees<br />
were given two weeks opportunity to provide feedback on the project. The names of the owners can also be<br />
provided if required.<br />
The owners of the land raised concerns that centred on the way the NZTA and TCC were going to deal with the<br />
flooding issues in the area. A summary of the issues raised were:<br />
• Water residence times after flooding, i.e. the time it takes <strong>for</strong> floods to recede<br />
• Culvert heights, flow paths and drains blocking<br />
• Lack of drain maintenance in the <strong>Mangatawa</strong> Drain<br />
• Swale planting (no trees in them so they can be maintained)<br />
8.4.1 MPBI<br />
MPBI owns the land adjacent to the Tamapahore Marae on which they propose industrial development. The<br />
site also includes an existing drain which takes the flood <strong>water</strong>s to the harbour as well as draining the site<br />
itself. NZTA and TCC have consulted with MPBI in 2008 and 2009 to provide feedback on the options <strong>for</strong> this<br />
proposal. Meetings have been held with the MPBI Board, technical advisers and MPBI’s engineers who provided<br />
input and reviewed the Options Study Report dated March 2009.<br />
