Description of proposal

Wellington City Council, under section 342(1) of the Local Government Act 1974, proposes to ‘stop’ a 54m² portion of unformed legal road in Abel Smith Street, Te Aro.

The Council no longer requires this land for road purposes.

The land (Section 1 SO 497678) adjoins 45 Abel Smith Street, Te Aro (Lot 1 DP 17757, CFR WN619/87).  Once the 54m² of legal road land is stopped Section 1 will be sold to the owners of 45 Abel Smith Street, Te Aro and the land titles amalgamated. 

Any future buildings or activities on the land will be governed by the Wellington City Council District Plan once stopped.
