Public notices

Have your say on whether we should renew, revoke, or amend the Council policy that enables shops in the Kāpiti Coast District to open on Easter Sunday if they choose.

Council adopted a policy in 2017 allowing shops to open on Easter Sunday. We have to review the policy every five years or it automatically revokes. This would mean most businesses won’t be able to trade on Easter Sunday, apart from a few places like dairies, service stations, and garden centres.

Find out more and make an online submission at haveyoursay.kapiticoast.govt.nz/Easter-Sunday-Shop-Trading

Copies of the draft Policy 2023, Statement of Proposal and submission form will be made available at Council service centres and libraries once consultation opens.

Kāpiti Coast District Council is seeking to contact relatives of Sybil Halsey-Mahoney regarding the reservation of Row J, Plots 36 and 38 at Paraparaumu Beach Cemetery on Kapiti Road.

If no contact is made by 1 May 2023, this reservation will lapse.

Please contact us on 0800 486 486 or at [email protected]

We need to temporarily shut off water supply in areas of Waikanae tomorrow between 10am and 2pm in order to connect a new water mains, and to allow for a diversion to support our stormwater works at Waikanae beach.

Both of these important projects improve the reliability and resilience of our water supply and our stormwater network in Waikanae.

Affected Residents

• Te Moana Road numbers 209–293 (odd and even numbers)
• Te Moana Road numbers 294–322 (even numbers only)
• Paretai Grove
• Charnwood Grove
• Nimmo Ave West
• Wakefield Grove
• Bressay Way
• Oak Bay
• Hemara Street
• Ngapaki Street numbers 10–18

Please plan ahead.  After the shutdown, you notice a cloudy appearance caused by air in the water. This should clear rapidly if you run your taps for a short period of time (1-2mins).

Thanks for your patience, Waikanae.

We now invite further submissions on Proposed Plan Change 2 to the Operative Kapiti Coast District Plan.

17 August 2022

The Kāpiti Coast District Council has amended the Operative Kapiti Coast District Plan 2021 (the District Plan) to give effect to Clauses 3.6(2)(b)(i) and (ii) of the National Policy Statement on Urban Development 2020.

The amendments incorporate “housing bottom lines” into the District Plan, which represent the additional development capacity over the short-medium (2021-2031) and long term (2031-2051) that must be enabled to meet expected housing demand in the Kāpiti district. The housing bottom lines are drawn from the Council’s 2022 housing capacity update of the Housing and Business Development Capacity Assessment, which is available at https://wrlc.org.nz/project/regional-housing-business-development-capacity-assessment-2022.

Clause 3.6(4) of the National Policy Statement on Urban Development 2020 requires the housing bottom lines to be inserted into the District Plan without using a process in Schedule 1 of the RMA (this means submissions cannot be made on these amendments).

The amendments are effective from 19 July 2022.

The District Plan can be viewed on the Council’s website.

The amendments have been made under section 55(2) and (2A)(a) of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA). This notice has been published in accordance with section 55(2A)(b) of the RMA. The date of this notice is 21 July 2022.

On 17 February 2022, and in accordance with Policy 11 and clause 3.38 of the National Policy Statement for Urban Development 2020 (NPS-UD), the Kapiti Coast District Council amended the District Plan to remove all objectives, policies, rules, or assessment criteria that have the effect of requiring a minimum number of car parks to be provided for any development, land use, or activity.

The parking design standards and minimum loading space requirements in the District Plan are not impacted by the NPS-UD and remain applicable to new development proposals that choose to provide on-site car parking.

As required under Section 55 of the Resource Management Act 1991, these amendments to the District Plan were made without using a Schedule 1 process (the typical public submission process for plan changes).

These amendments to the Operative Kapiti Coast District Plan 2021 may be inspected on the Council’s website at District Plan.

Kāpiti Coast District Council advises the Keeping of Animals, Bees and Poultry Bylaw 2021 will come into effect on 1 January 2022.

The Bylaw helps manage the keeping of animals, bees and poultry throughout Kāpiti to ensure they do not create a nuisance or become a threat to public health and safety. It covers a range of activities, including animals (excluding dogs), as well as poultry, roosters and “stock”. 

The Bylaw has been amended to improve clarity and strengthen safety and nuisance rules.

Amendments include requiring all non-urban apiaries to be placed 10m or more from public places, unless an exemption license has been granted by Council; requiring a license to keep a peacock in an urban area; and requiring poultry coops and runs to meet standards set out in the Layer Hens Code of Welfare under the Animal Welfare Act. 

The Bylaw and updated application forms are available at www.kapiticoast.govt.nz/animal-management.

Submissions

On 28 October 2021 the Kāpiti Coast District Council (‘Council’) considered submissions received on its initial proposal regarding representation arrangements for the Council and its community boards to apply for the local elections to be held on 8 October 2022.

The Council received 532 written submissions and 59 oral submissions on its initial proposal.  In accordance with section 19N of the Local Electoral Act 2001, the reasons for Council accepting and rejecting submissions are set out as follows:

Final proposal

Having considered all of the submissions, on Thursday 11 November 2021 Council resolved to reject its initial proposal and adopt a new proposal as the final proposal for the Kāpiti Coast District Council and its community boards for the 2022 local authority elections. The final proposal is to retain the existing representation arrangements for Kāpiti Coast District Council with minor boundary changes and five community boards, including separate community boards for both Paraparaumu and Raumati. The proposal is set out in detail as follows:

Council Representation

It is proposed that the Kāpiti Coast District Council comprise 10 councillors, five elected on a district-wide basis and five elected from four wards, plus the mayor.  The four wards reflect the following identified communities of interest:

The population that each councillor will represent is as follows:

In accordance with section 19V(2), Local Electoral Act 2001 the population that each councillor represents must be within the range of 11,420 +/- 10% (between 10,278 and 12,562), unless particular community of interest considerations justify otherwise.

The representation of the Ōtaki and Waikanae Wards falls outside the stipulated range.  The Council considers that the Ōtaki and Waikanae Wards each warrant a single member for the following reason:

• compliance with section 19V(2) would limit effective representation of communities of interest by dividing a community of interest between wards or subdivisions based on the considerations set out in section 19V(3)(ii), Local Electoral Act 2001.

Community Board Representation

It is proposed that the Kāpiti Coast District Council be divided into five community boards, retaining Council’s existing community boards for Ōtaki, Waikanae and Paekākāriki and establishing separate community boards for Paraparaumu and Raumati. The community boards are set out as follows: 

Ōtaki, Waikanae, Paraparaumu, Raumati and Paekākāriki Community Boards

The Ōtaki, Waikanae, Paraparaumu, Raumati and Paekākāriki Community Boards will each elect four members. They will not be subdivided for electoral purposes. They will each have appointed members as follows: 

Appeals and objections

Any person or organisation (including a community board) who made a submission on the Council’s initial proposal may lodge an appeal against the Council’s decision. An appeal must relate to the matters raised in that person's submission.

Any interested person or organisation (including a community board) may lodge an objection to the Council’s final proposal. Any objection must identify the matters to which the objection relates.

Appeals and objections must be made in writing and must be received by Council no later than 5:00pm on Monday 13 December 2021.

Appeals and objections are to be forwarded to:

Attention – Sarah Wattie

• Physical address – Civic Administration Building, 175 Rimu Road, Paraparaumu 5254

Further information

Direct any queries regarding the Council’s decision to Sarah Wattie (contact details above).

Wayne Maxwell

Chief Executive

13 November 2021

On 26 August 2021, Kāpiti Coast District Council reviewed its representation arrangements, and resolved that the following initial proposal be adopted for the local body elections to be held on 8 October 2022, subject to public consultation in accordance with the Local Electoral Act 2001. Council will consider public submissions and determine the final proposal on 11 November 2021.

Council Representation

It is proposed that the Council comprise 10 members elected with a mixed representation model, with five councillors elected from three wards and five councillors elected district-wide, plus the mayor. The three wards reflect the following geographical communities:

It is proposed that these arrangements provide effective representation for the district’s communities of interest.

The population that each member will represent is as follows:

In accordance with section 19V(2), Local Electoral Act 2001 the population that each elected member represents must be within the range of 11,410 +/- 10% (10,269 to 12,551), unless community of interest considerations justify otherwise.

The wards and proposed boundaries comply with the +/-10% rule with the exception of Kāpiti ki te Raki/Northern Ward, which is over-represented with a percentage variation of -11.92%.  Population growth in the region since the last representation review, as well as the proposed boundary change between Kāpiti ki te Raki/Northern Ward and Kāpiti ki Waenga/Central Ward, mean the proposed deviation is less than the existing representation arrangements. The Council considers that moving the boundary to address this issue “would limit effective representation of communities of interest by dividing a community of interest between wards” as set out in section 19V(3)(ii), Local Electoral Act 2001.

The reasons for the minor boundary adjustments and combining the current Waikanae and Paraparaumu Wards are to reflect population growth across the district since the last representation review and the effect of this on communities of interest, and to provide for fairer representation to Kāpiti Coast resident and ratepayers.

Community Board Representation

The current Ōtaki, Waikanae, Paraparaumu-Raumati and Paekākāriki Community Boards are not included in the representation arrangements set out in this proposal. Instead the proposal focuses on councillors and Council staff working together to foster community-led development, and on new, contemporary ways to help the community engage more directly with Council.

Further Information

Copies of the full proposal including Council’s consultation document and maps setting out the areas of the proposed wards may be viewed and obtained online during all COVID-19 alert levels from Council’s website:

Some plumbing fittings have the potential to allow minute traces of metals to accumulate in water standing in the fittings for several hours.

Although the health risk is small, the Ministry of Health recommends that you flush a mug full of water from your drinking water tap each morning before use to remove any metals that may have dissolved from the plumbing fittings.

We are recommending this simple precaution for all households, including those on public and private water supplies.
