<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 />
