Yes, refer to social use and meeting social needs. "Vibrancy" doesn’t necessarily cover this as it often refers to economic activity. The document is light on how an increased population density has human service and social implications, although we recognize that this gets a mention in SOCIAL NETWORK actions 16 & 17. We suggest the wording of the vision be amended to read: “…..accessible and safer place which meets social needs for all people living in…….”

The Council does have an opportunity to develop a Council lead community focus without simply leaving it up to developers with their own interests at heart. Best to work in with the instututions in the area to provide for shared facilities and activities. ]]> Fri, 03 Oct 2008 22:13:49 +0000 com http://mtcookmobilised.pbwiki.com/Question+2+%28f%29+Outcome+6+Intensive+residential+growth no.email.given@example.com (Anonymous) Anonymous commented on Question 2 (f) Outcome 6 Intensive residential growth In addition to the Tasman Street boundary with the mixed use area, in Douglas Street there are character houses, and on the other side of the street there is the potential for 6-8 story high commercial buidlings (currently one-story commercial). The Plan should allow for a suitable transition zone between character residential and commercial which is more than 5 metres of roading ashpalt. There are other areas where the planned intensification of usage butts up against current low level residential housing, and across the whole Mt Cook area there should be suitable controls in place to ensure that there is not a harsh boundary between the two usages. ]]> Fri, 03 Oct 2008 21:50:47 +0000 com http://mtcookmobilised.pbwiki.com/Question+2+%28a%29+Outcome+1+Open+Space+Networks no.email.given@example.com (Anonymous) Anonymous commented on Question 2 (a) Outcome 1 Open Space Networks The greening of areas needs to be balanced with the need for safety in parks and walk-through areas. For example the steps between upper and lower Douglas Street have large trees that regularly need maintaining to ensure that the walkway steps are lit and remain a good safe accessway. Any new additional green areas need to ensure good lighting and sightlines - particularly at night. ]]> Fri, 03 Oct 2008 21:38:40 +0000 com http://mtcookmobilised.pbwiki.com/Question+2+%28c%29+Outcome+3+Movement+Networks email.hidden@example.com (Geoff Stone) Geoff Stone edited Question 2 (c) Outcome 3 Movement Networks disagree strongly
Comments
have not seen no any traffic projections and management scenarios that help us understand how foreseeable congestion and safety issues will be dealt with.
We need to be presented with information and scenarios that also give us an idea of what traffic projections are envisaged in the across a wider area, including effects outside the formal Adelaide Rd corridor eg e.g. other north-south routes (Wallace Street, Tasman Street), especially with reference to two planned supermarkets.
Questions
As a broader question, what are the traffic projections for North/South traffic flows through Adelaide Rd and other Mt Cook roads arising from the combined effects of the Adelaide Rd, Basin flyover, Memorial Park, and Ngauranga to Airport proposals?
