An application was lodged by S Cave for a land use consent for a private seawall to protect the properties located at 4, 6 and 8 Tuahine Crescent, Wainui Beach. The site is located at the bottom of a coastal bluff at the bottom of the residential properties which occupy the land above the bluff. It is proposed to replace an existing seawall which is largely dilapidated and in a poor state of repair. The consent was publicly notified on 17 February 2020. At the closing of submissions on 16 March 2020, the applicant requested the application be placed on hold. The matter was heard by an Independent Commissioner panel on Thursday 11 May 2023 and the decision to grant the consent application was made on 7 June 2023. |
