Clevedon & viewshaft plan changes approved

6 plan changes alter volcanic viewshafts around the region.
QE2 Square, wharves, Aotea debated
The committee has also discussed an update from the council’s city centre integration unit, including whether to sell about 2000m² of Queen Elizabeth 2 Square at the foot of Queen St to Precinct Properties Ltd in a land swap enabling the company to better redevelop the Downtown Shopping Centre, or to offer it on a leasehold basis.
The council had already resolved last year to dispose of the square, which is surrounded by Precinct-owned buildings on 3 sides and the street on the fourth, and the city rail link tunnel out of Britomart will run beneath it.
Auckland Council Property acquisitions & disposals manager Clive Fuhr recommended sale of the square, but after a long discussion the committee resolved to defer that decision until its next meeting.
The committee also has the central wharves & Aotea precinct development on its agenda, including what course to follow on the old civic administration building, and a report on a study of the cost of residential servicing.
In the confidential section of its agenda, the committee will decide the council positions for mediation & hearings at the unitary plan hearing sessions on historic character and the pre-1944 demolition control overlay, and on the city centre port precinct.
Also in the confidential agenda, the committee will consider deferred requests for special housing areas.
