We would like to thank Paul Turner from Landlink and
Christian Bertschinger from Archuas Architects for the work that
they put into helping us achieve this consent. Both Paul and
Christian were present for the full 3 day heairng and provided
invaluable advice to the club as well as very comprehensive
submsisons and answers to the commissioners queries.
Lyall Bay Surf Life Saving Club has been providing
voluntary lifeguard patrols at Lyall Bay for 100 years. The
current building, our 4th, was built in the late 1950s. Since then
it has been extensively modified and extended but now no longer
meets the needs of modern lifeguard operations. It is too
dilapidated to repair or renovate and is in need of replacement. To
properly serve the community need for life saving on Lyall Bay
beach, the club has been working on buildng a new clubhouse.
The Resource Consent is for the demolition of the existing
Lyall Bay Surf Club Building and No 2 Clubroom Building and the
construction of a new building for the use of Lyall Bay Surf Life
Saving Club, including Wellington City Council public toilets on
the ground floor level and the re-instatement of two sections of
the heritage seawall.
