Subject: Official Information request - Te Henga Bethells Film &
Television Location Permits

 

Dear Auckland Council,

Please advise the list of permits issued for film and/or television
location activities on public or private land in the Te Henga Bethells
Beach valley and coastal area, since 1January 2018.

Please advise the fees paid by permits approved and granted to production
companies (and the like) to Auckland Council for location services
activities since 1 January 2018.

Please advise if there are any other Auckland Council revenue stream
attributed to film and television location activities, other than permit
processing.
For example, are there any lump sum or regular payments made by film and
television production companies (and the like) to Auckland Council.

Apart from permit revenue, what tangible benefits are there to the Te
Henga Bethells Beach residents to grant film and television location
activities to occur in the community?
Is the impact of film and television location activities on the unique
environment, public amenities, roads and infrastructure commensurate with
the location permit fees (or other payments) received?

Yours faithfully,

P Elliott
