PLAN TO ‘STOP’ AND SELL UNFORMED ROAD – FORRES STREET

Wellington City Council, under Section 342(1) of the Local Government Act 1974, proposes to ‘stop’ a 933sq m portion of land in Forres Street, Seatoun. 

We no longer require this land for road purposes.

The land described in the schedule below, adjoins 91 Tio Tio Road (Lot 1 DP 46749), 93 Tio Tio Road (Lot 1 DP 83848), 34 Ferry Road (PT Lot 8 BLK II DEEDS 110), and 38 Ferry Road (Lot 1 DP 381807)

Once the road land is stopped it would be divided into three parts as follows:
1	768 sq m being where the Seatoun Scout Hall is sited, which would be marketed for sale. 
2	96 sq m adjoining 91 Tio Tio Road which would be sold to the owner of 91A Tio Tio Road.
3	69 sq m adjoining 93 Tio Tio Road which would remain in Council ownership.

The uses to which the land can be used are governed by the Wellington City Council District Plan. In the case of the Seatoun Scout hall, it is listed as a heritage building in the District Plan. Any future development would have to comply with the heritage requirements.

You can get a copy of the report about this proposal, and the survey office plan (SO 463349) defining the road to be stopped from:
1	the Central Library (Level 2) 65 Victoria Street
2	our Service Centre at 101 Wakefield Street
3	on our website – go to ‘Have your say, Public input, Open public notices’

Objections to this proposal must be lodged in writing with Paul Davidson, Property Services, Wellington City Council, PO Box 2199, or you can drop it off to the Council reception at 101 Wakefield Street.

All objections must be received before 5pm, Monday 15 July  2013.

Schedule:
Three parcels of land containing a total area of 933 sq m being Sections 1 (768 sq m), 2 (96 sq m) and 3 (69 sq m), SO 463349 lodged with Land Information New Zealand.
