Land development and surveying experts Taylor Patrick was integral in helping to deliver Longview in Hāwera. Originally the land was zoned industrial and Taylor Patrick was part of the process to determine the best use of the land. In collaboration with Veros, and other key stakeholders including council, it was identi ied the land was best suited to residential development. Taylor Patrick’s vision was to enhance the Hāwera community in a way that was aesthetically pleasing, sustainable and environmentally responsible. They have taken great care to ensure every aspect of the design and build phase was in line with the vision, and believe that Longview can serve as a model for e ective community development. Taylor Patrick worked on the overall concept masterplan for the wider land holding, then undertook the resource consenting phase with district and regional councils. This involved engagement with key stakeholders such as iwi and KiwiRail, and multiple expert reports including ecology, landscape and tra ic. The formal process to relocate an old un-used ‘paper road’ was a particular challenge. Once consents were secured Taylor Patrick collaborated with civil and geotechnical engineers on the detailed design of roading, Taylor Patrick Surveying earthworks and utilities, then with council to obtain design approvals to start construction. With 10-years experience in land development under his belt, Sam Broadmore, Taylor Patrick Licensed Cadastral Surveyor, was surveyor lead on the project design and build phases. “A lot of ine detail went into the design of the streetscape and a lot of time was spent on site communicating that to the contractors to deliver such a high quality outcome” says Sam. Taylor Patrick owner Stefan Kiss says it was really tight timeframes involved. Sam and Stefan say they are particularly proud of the quality of the inishing of the streetscape and landscaping. “This project shows we can deliver really complex large scale land development projects and apply the resource and expertise needed right through from design to consenting, project and site management, achieving titles and delivering a liveable new community. At Taylor Patrick we are passionate about delivering great outcomes for our communities and the environment through good design, engagement and collaboration.”
