<strong>Draft</strong> <strong>Town</strong> <strong>Belt</strong> <strong>Management</strong> <strong>Plan</strong> October 2012<br />
It is appropriate to discuss these areas<br />
together as they all are next to and part of<br />
the Waimapihi Stream catchment. The<br />
areas are not immediately adjacent to the<br />
<strong>Town</strong> <strong>Belt</strong> but border Polhill Gully Reserve<br />
part A, in the north-eastern corner. These<br />
areas lie behind the Durham Street/Aro<br />
Valley ridge and are not visually part of<br />
the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>Belt</strong>’s horseshoe. They border<br />
the Sanctuary boundary fence along the<br />
western boundary and therefore the<br />
topographic levels are consistent. The land<br />
is predominately regenerating native<br />
forest. There is a network of recreation<br />
tracks linking the Outer Green <strong>Belt</strong>. This<br />
land was not part of the originally<br />
envisaged <strong>Town</strong> <strong>Belt</strong> land.<br />
N/A These two lots are connected to the<br />
existing <strong>Town</strong> belt, both visually and<br />
physically. The land would be perceived to<br />
be already part of the <strong>Town</strong> <strong>Belt</strong> given its<br />
consistent open space character. This land<br />
is not original <strong>Town</strong> <strong>Belt</strong>.<br />
