Historic detailed district maps

William Smith made this Official Information request to Far North District Council

Currently waiting for a response from Far North District Council, they must respond promptly and normally no later than (details and exceptions).

From: William Smith

Dear Far North District Council,

I have seen on several historic resource consent documents and applications dating from the 1980s and 90s excerpts from a hand drawn map showing the Kerikeri area in detail, including all property boundaries, deposited plan numbers and nearly every property seems to have a three digit number in a circle like "222" or where the property has been subdivided "220/1" and "220/2". Neighbouring properties often have consecutive numbers but these do not correspond to house numbers.

This seems to have been the main map used by the council for planning purposes for decades and it seems to have been changed and updated over the years but in each resource consent there is usually only a small excerpt from the map copied onto an A4 sheet. I can't find the whole map or any title or description of it.

Please could you:
a) Identify what this map is
b) Identify the purpose of the numbers in the circles
c) provide a scanned copy of the whole map, or at least the sheets relating to the Kerikeri area and particularly Riverview.
d) provide copies of all the different versions of that map which were used over the years.

Yours faithfully,

William Smith
