Marina CCO proposal Debate

Community Wellbeing - Health

Option 2

The stakeholder supports Option 2 as it includes provisions for more pump outs, which would improve water quality in the Marina, benefiting both the marine environment and its users. Enhancements in water circulation, such as getting more fresh water from the Maitai to flush the Marina, are also seen as beneficial for fire safety and overall marina health. The respondent emphasizes the importance of operational boats and regular use, suggesting that boats should be required to leave their berth twice a year to prevent deterioration and optimize berth usage.

I am a stakeholder yacht owner, and I will keep this short.Dredge, Dredge, Dredge! In the event of a fire at low tide my boat and many others CAN NOT leave our berth because it is to shallow. I am not in favour of selling any council land for private development.  Don't kill the golden goose.Allow users access to the COO board to provide input. Please notify us of these meetings. I am in favor of wardale option 2 version 8 having docks R-Y. We need the berths! Great Idea having more pump outs for better water quality. Getting more Maitai fresh water to flush the marina from the P dock end would be good. Again Fire Safety and general marina health. All boats should be operational and required to leave their berth twice a year. Sooooo many boats I see never move and are dying a slow death. These boats are taking up space that people who use their boats would like. Good start so far with the boat graveyard in the hardstand.Thank you Saxby Thorndyke
