Regulatory Committee Agenda - Waipa District Council

120
With our proposed new tubdivision. SPJ0113112 which dlange. the boundary
alignments we have received a Jetter from Chorus now raqulmg the payment
of$33,053.
We have spoken with Chorus In this regard. and their comments are as
follows.
•rhe connections were availabte fOf' this subdivision folowing the payment of
lhe original contributJon. Since then our cJienta had their land line
disconnected ...
This was due to the continual bad telephone connections and our clients and
their daughter and son in law have gone wireless via olher services.
•oue to our c,ients disconnecting the serke. the free capacity in the fines has
now been provided to others along Walace Road.
If our clients were to pav the $33,000 then a new reticulatiOn would be
provided along Wallace Road. This would be available for MY other new
connection at Ole fee of $2070. •
We ask that the condition be amended such that the consent holder is
required to provide conformation from a seNice pnMder that a wireless
connection can be provided. We would accept a consent notice bet I'll placed
on the consent advising future owners that there i$ no physical conec:tion.
This is an issue that won't go away and other COuncil are dealing with it at
the time of District Plan review.
If you have any quires, please contact the writer.
Yours faithfully
