Katikati boat concerns aired

Boaties with northern harbour issues are asked to take them to the Katikati Boat Club annual general meeting being held on April 27 at the Park Road tennis pavilion.

Issues can include boat ramps, channel lights or anything else of concern.

The meeting starts at 7.30pm.

An expected contentious issue is the delay in Katikati wharf extensions.

The boat club will be re-submitting to the Western Bay of Plenty District Council on this.

Another project the club is looking at this year is the extension of the Beach Road ramp to extend launching times by at least half an hour each side of low tide.

The ramp was originally Katikati Boat Club property, but like all harbour side facilities, now belongs to the council.

At a meeting of the northern harbour forum, the regional council representative, Eddie Morrow, said the Bay of Plenty Regional Council can fund the resource consent.
