Subject: Official Information request - Development Plans for Greys Avenue
Car Park

 

Dear Auckland Council,

I am writing to request information under the Local Government Official
Information and Meetings Act 1987 (LGOIMA) regarding the future
development plans for the Greys Avenue car park site, as outlined in the
Aotea Quarter Framework. Specifically, I am seeking the following
information:

1. Are there any plans to keep the Greys Avenue car park site closed after
the completion of the midtown wastewater diversion project in 2026, rather
than reopening it as a car park (I assume that traffic will have adapted
to the closure during this time)?

2. What specific plans or developments have been made to develop this land
in line with the Aotea Quarter Framework, especially with the opening of
the City Rail Link (CRL, which will be occurring while the car park is
closed)?

3. Has the Council conducted any studies or assessments on how the closure
of this car park during the wastewater diversion project might impact
future development plans for the site (such as potential development
opening prior to or in line with the CRL)?

4. Are there any current proposals or discussions about alternative uses
for this site that align with the vision set out in the Aotea Quarter
Framework?

5. How does the Council plan to balance the potential reduced need for car
parking in the CBD (due to increased public transport options like the
CRL) with the development goals outlined in the Aotea Quarter Framework?

Please provide any relevant documents, reports, or correspondence related
to these questions.

If you need any clarification or have any questions about this request,
please don't hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your assistance with this matter.

Yours faithfully,
Isaac Morrison
