Sprint Car Events in Seaview  - We request notification as an affected party before any more consents are granted.  The noise is highly invasive.

We also request an email and mail drop notification a week prior to these events so residents can make plans to be away. 

This event is a yearly event which is widely advertised well before to the day.

Noise – Dean Bentley

Environmental Issues   Oil can often be seen in the Seaview marina and white suds in light westerly conditions. There is a greater need for monitoring of live-a-boards and self-containment.

Guy Fawkes Request Fireworks ban at Pt Howard lookout - Pro-active response to Christchurch fires.  Rockets are currently able to be legally set off into the gorse which is a major hazard.

Marine Parade Cycle-lane  Request that the cycle-lane be smoothed and re-sealed and that it be made compulsory for cyclists to use the cycle lane where present as is the law in Australia. Currently cyclists are causing unnecessary obstruction to motorists

45.               

Speed Humps Marine Drive

Speed bump in Marine Drive on the Eastbourne side of the pedestrian crossing opposite Cobar. There are some drivers whipping around from Eastbourne travelling far in excess of 50kph and one day someone will be severely injured by speeding vehicles. As I am writing this one vehicle has travelled south past the Gallery at a speed of probably 70kph.

Consultation process  would be needed

Illegal Parking  Persistent Illegal Parking (yet again) on the southern side of the Days Bay Wharf.

 

Letters have been written to the Manager of Parking Services HCC but to date little obvious action appears to have been taken to ticket illegal parkers from Eastbourne – who preclude visitors to the Bay utilising the services of the commercial businesses in the Bay.

Request time limit parking. Sam logged an RFS on your behalf.  #374793

Zac Moodie – Road & Traffic

48.               

To stop the incessant sand flow across Marine Drive from Days Bay Beach. 

 

Can thought be given to the construction of a small nib wall which would (a) stop the sand drift and keep that precious commodity on the beach and (b) provide welcome seating and security for families visiting the Bay.
