Piha and Karekare geotechnical update

Thanks to all who attended the community meetings in Piha and Karekare over the weekend – we really appreciated the turn out and engagement from the communities.

All property owners within the study area who have been identified within the reports from GHD were contacted Friday 22 September to explain the next steps for them. If you were contacted, this doesn’t necessarily mean that your property will end up as a Category 2 or Category 3 property. In some cases, you may receive a geotechnical report because you are near but outside an area of identified land instability. This OurAuckland article explains the property categorisation process. Our storm affected properties webinar recording includes information on property categorisation and the home buyout scheme. (Tip: hover your mouse over the video progress bar to jump forward to chapters of interest.)

Cluster 1 property owners have been notified by us that there is a delay to the release of their draft reports.

If you were not contacted last week, and believe you are eligible for a risk categorisation, please fill in the flooding and landslide registration form if you haven’t already done so.
