Council explores management of coastal hazards By ROBYN BRISTOW Coastal hazards are under the spotlight in the Hurunui District. Meetings will be held with six coastal communities to exchange information and views on hazards. Council chief executive Hamish Dobbie says it will be achance for the council to share what it learned about coastal hazards and to ask the communities what they know, what they want to know, and the approach they would like to take. “A plan for the future can then begin.” Mr Dobbie says some information has been put together with consultants to help explore potential scenarios. ‘‘What is important now is to work closely with our coastal communities to find out their concerns, needs and wishes.” The evening meetings for invited residents will take place at Amberley Beach, Leithfeld Beach, Gore Bay, Motunau, and Claverley Flat/ Conway Flat. “There is no knowledge like local knowledge, when it comes to working through this puzzle of coastal hazards,” Mr Dobbie says. He says there is no one solution, but it is important to look at the options. “At the moment we are engaging with our communities on our shared knowledge of coastal hazards, so we can work out what to do next. It’s really important every voice is heard.” The council has the legal responsibility to manage risks from natural hazards. It says community input is crucial and it will work at the pace of those who live on the coast. “There is no hurry for this. We are working on amultigenerational plan. We want to do this once and do it right.” After initial meetings, there will be followup conversations with coastal communities.
