As part of a Submission to TCDC regarding the disposal of Green Waste in the Mercury Bay South. Hahei and Hotwater Beach Catchment areas.

2. • Ferry Landing
• Flaxmill Bay
• Cooks Beach
• Through to Hahei Turn off

4. • Have worked with Colleagues in
Hahei and Hotwater Beach and have
submitted a joint submission
• Unanimous support – While I have
learned that consensus in the area
is difficult, this issue, along with
others in the submission have
unanimous support from the
citizens of the area.

5. • Have resided in Cooks Beach for 18
months
• Born, raised and educated in Thames
• Long Family History in area –
Grandfather – Father
• The area and its total welfare is
a part of me

7. • Our people feel –frustrated
disenfranchised. We appear to get
inequitable treatment as
compared to the rest of the
Peninsula
• Locals must travel 76Km return
to dispose of their Green Waste
plus then pay for the privilege.
Would the residents of Thames
travel to Paeroa to do the same.

8. The lack of a facility is
Encouraging Flytipping

9. Coromandel
Matarangi
Pauanui Tairua
Thames Whangamata
Whitianga
Absolutely NOT, Precedence already created.

11. • Utilise Council land on Purangi Rd.
This would allow easy access to all
MBS.residents including
Whenuakite
• Investigate the leasing of a small
land Block

12. • The issuing of vouchers or a rate
reduction for our people to utilise
distant facilities more equitably
• The use of a Compactor ala. Coroglen
Less Appealing

13. • Footbridge over Flaxmill Bay
• Erosion Problems in Cooks Beach and
Flaxmill Bay
• Footpath repair and maintenance on
Purangi Rd.
• Road Safety on Purangi Rd.

15. • Monies from the Proposed
Hoggin Path
(Totally rejected at our Public Meeting)
• Other Projects that
are not in our
Public Interest

16. Thank you for allowing us to supplement our
submissions.
We are aware of our loyalty and commitment to
the total Coromandel Peninsula. We know that
everyone wants a slice of the cake. We are not
after the cake, just some crumbs.
We appeal to your sense of fairness and justice.
