Dear Opotiki District Council,

In response to our request for the 2011 Opotiki District Council Building Control Department's minutes, you have provided all except those for the meeting held on 5th May 2011.

Throughout March 2011 we were requesting a major site visit involving the Opotiki District Council Building Department to discuss our complaint about the nailing pattern on the Shadowclad and in particular, the bracing elements. (External ply bracing elements could be pulled off with bare hands, yet had been recorded by the Building Inspector as weathertight and completed). Finally, on the12th April 2011 this site visit occurred. Our complaints were not recorded in any of the other minutes for 2011 that you have provided so the complaint must be recorded in the missing May 2011 minutes.

We ask you to provide us with a copy of the missing minutes.

Yours faithfully,

David Horwood
