Kia ora Levonne,

 

I refer to your request for information relating to the Permitted Activity
notification PLUC70024452 and the Certificate of Compliance CER70024867. I
also refer to my colleague Amanda’s email to you confirm that we are
combining our response to your requests as outlined below:

 

Request received on 8 June 2025:

I am requesting a copy of Matuku Reserve Trusts application for permitted
activity PLUC 70024452 and ALL documentation , photographs, supplied by
Matuku Trust to get a permitted activity.

This was signed off and seen by Lauren Folwell (earthworks and stream
works monitoring officer)

I would also like a copy of application and ALL documentation, photos,
landowners consents, for application of certificate of compliance
CER70024867 from Matuku Trust .

Signed off and seen by Bonnie Collinson Auckland Council , Matt
Parker-Bevin Auckland Council

 

Question 1 of the Request received on 11 June 2025:

 

I am requesting ALL documentation/photos/community consents, presented to
council, by Matuku Trust Reserve to consider the permitted activity. Ref
above. (All documentation to read for council ,before the permitted
activity and coc are consented.)

And the same ALL documentation and photos , community consents presented
by Matuku Trust Reserve to council for consideration of a certificate of
compliance ref above. (What did matuku supply for you to consider a
permitted activity )

 

Furthermore, we understand that you may have been in direct contact with
staff from the council’s Planning and Resource Consents department
regarding these matters. If any of the information you requested has
already been provided to you through those channels, please let us know so
we can exclude it from our response.

 

Unfortunately, we are not able to provide the requested information today.
We are still collating and processing the materials. As such, Auckland
Council is extending the time limit for responding to your request under
section 14 of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act
1987 (LGOIMA). We will provide our response by 28 July 2025. Please note
this is the maximum extension period, and we will endeavour to respond
sooner if possible.

 

The reason for this extension is:

                - The request is for a large quantity of information or
necessitates a search through a large quantity of information and meeting
the original time limit would unreasonably interfere with the operation of
Auckland Council.

 

Please note you have the right to request a review of this extension from
the Ombudsman.

 

If you have any questions please let me know.

 

Ngā mihi | Kind Regards
