Have your say on changes near you
We are proposing new parking restrictions on Riverglade Lane in Matakana. Our proposal responds to requests from local residents to tackle the issue of parked cars blocking access to the street, especially during Matakana Market days. We recommend restricting parking along one side of the street.
We’re asking for your feedback on two possible solutions to this problem. Each option will improve street access along Riverglade Lane.
Please turn the page for a full description of each option and see the proposal drawings enclosed.
We recently asked for your feedback on a crossing with traffic lights on Matakana Road, which is moving forward after considering community feedback. Follow the instructions below to find out more online.
 
Tell us what you think  Our proposal aims to improve street access for locals and emergency services. But we know these changes may affect residents on this road. So we want to hear from you. Simply complete the online feedback survey from 29th November to  Friday, 13 December 2019.

Option 1: ‘No Stopping’ (Permanent Broken Yellow Lines) This option would:
  • Restrict 20 parking spaces at all times along the western side of Riverglade Lane and two short sections of the eastern side.
  • Improve street access at all times but would permanently remove 20 parking spaces for residents and visitors.
  • Require road markings to be painted.
Option 2: ‘No Stopping’ (Saturday and Sunday Only)This option would:
  • Restrict 20 parking spaces during the weekends only, along the western side of Riverglade Lane.
  • Improve street access during the weekends, including during the Matakana Market.
  • Allow residents and visitors to park during the weekdays, however would not improve street access during the weekdays.
  • Require approximately 4 signs to be installed.

​New dog regulations came into law as of 1st November
and these are now consistent throughout Auckland.
New restricted summer hours of 10am to 6-30pm will now be enforced each year from the 1st December to 1st March.
​All current ‘on-leash’ and ‘prohibitive areas’ will still stand.
Access rules will be sorted out by Local Boards next year. Ideas will be sought from the community.
Matakana Volunteer Fire Brigade - urgent call for volunteers
We really need your support to be able to provide the community with staff on the firetruck or first response medical vehicle for emergency call outs.
Imagine having no local emergency responders in Matakana, Point Wells, Tawharanui and Omaha because we have no volunteers to crew the trucks.
