Subject: Official Information Act request - Re-zoning of MOE land in Auckland Council's Unitary Plan process

Dear Ministry of Education,

I am requesting written confirmation of information received
verbally that the Ministry of Education has requested that all
school and public tertiary institutions be given under-lining
zoning reflecting surrounding zones through the Unitary Plan
process by Auckland Council.

I would additionally like to know:

1. How was the request communicated by the MOE and who did it come
from? Ideally I would like a copy of the request

2. What rationale has the MOE given to change the zoning approach
for public education sites in the Unitary Plan? Why is this
necessary? In particular why has the Ministry requested that the
sites not be zoned to reflect the current use of the land, i.e.
educational, as opposed to seeking the zoning to reflect
surrounding zones?

3. Has the MOE pursued a similar approach with any other local
authorities regarding giving public education sites underlying
zoning?

I look forward to receiving a response. I can be contacted on 021
287 9900 or by email (email preferred).

Yours faithfully,

Julie Fairey
