We want Waiatarua Reserve off leash areas left as they are. There are so few places like this left where dogs can socialise and run free.

Prioritise completion of Community Safety projects within the current school year (2020)
Among local projects noted for funding from OLB's Community Safety fund in 2019 are two projects that focus on improving safety for walking school buses in Meadowbank. These include a project at the Temple St and Lucia Glade intersection to provide a walking channel for children and their parents and those walking in the Millipede Walking School Bus to Mt Carmel and Meadowbank primary schools, separate from road traffic entering and exiting Lucia Glade. The second project assists in making it safer for children and parents to cross Grand Drive at the McFarland St intersection, to join up with the Pukeko Express Bus. I ask, for the sake of the safety of our children and for the enhancement of local walking infrastructure, that both of these projects are prioritised for completion in the 2020 school year.

Better sports facilities and ability to have evening games at Madills Farm
The Eastern Suburbs clubroom and changing facilities are second rate. This could be turned into a multi sports facility with a proper cafe and changing facilities that aren’t third world. The flood lighting should enable games to be played in the evenings to get better use out of the grounds.

Speed identification signs required on residential "shortcut" roads.
There is an increasing risk to pedestrian safety and quiet use of your property from speeding noisy vehicles transiting (short-cutting) through residential roads. If the excessive speeds are identified and visible to the drivers it will reduce speeds and associated noise. The example, cars leaving Remuera Road, transiting through Lucerne, Benson, to Upland road, avoiding the lights at Remuera and Upland. I am sure other like roads through residential areas in the Orakei area have similar issues.
