Hi Jillian,

 

Do we have any idea why they are looking for this information? There has
been a recent case of fraud where Structural Engineering data
(particularly reports) was used to create false reports!

 

Some of the consultant information supplied is confidential.

 

Should I contact him?

Dear Blaise Williams,

I am looking to understand the earthquake ratings of different buildings around the local area and how prudent the Council has been in getting information.

To answer your concern directly, will not be producing false reports from this information. Though I doubt a statement would go far in allaying concerns!

Regardless, I don't believe my purpose affects how my request is handled.

Yours sincerely,

J Grasmueck

Kia ora,

 

Thank you for your LGOIMA request (2310720) below.  I would like to
provide the following response:

 

42 Logan Street

Attached is the initial earthquake assessment for the above address.
Please note it is titled Tokoroa Library Building, which is incorrect.

 

Council Offices-Torphin Street, Tokoroa

DSA report attached.

 

Memorial Sports Grounds

Events centre completed in 2012. No earthquake assessment has been done or
is required to be done.

No other buildings on the Sports Grounds were identified as earthquake
prone and therefore no reports are available for these buildings.

 

Regards
