Such a special taonga for the people of Dunedin and the wider community to share - please don’t restrict our access

Been roaming these hills for years. This area should be kept open for everyone to enjoy without the need for a permit. What is the point of it?

These are amazing running trails and the running community takes great care of their surroundings.

These proposed bylaws are criminal. This space is vital to the comunity and is part of what makes dunedin such a great place to live

This is a very important access to front country hills and the huts. So important to be able to do a loop and access from different points. Thanks

These trails got me through some of the worst times I’ve experienced in my life. I had no way out untill I discovered what Dunedin had to offer and how much it would change my life. You cannot take this away from people!!

A total access ban is insane and cannot be justified. You cannot justify any environmental concerns as in the 9 times I tramped to Jubilee Hut I have not found a single piece of litter. Councillors earn at least 75k, surely you can use that to buy a brain.

Recreational access to these iconic trails must be retained. People come from all over NZ to run them

The tracks noted are part of what makes Dunedin a special place. They promote accessibility to the natural environment at a time where this is becoming increasingly important.

Let us run and walk our great trails around Dunedin without needing to apply for permits.

Crazy- this is our place of activity, it promotes wellbeing, community connection and health. This area was one of the main draw cards for relocating to this city.

The DCC management of this issue is clearly deeply flawed & has set out to intentionally disregard the well established & traditional use of this area. The DCC logic & reasoning from an operational perspective for an elementary water catchment area is beyond disbelief. Access to the area should not be closed off & must remain fully accessible to the public.

I don't agree with having to obtain a permit for walking or running in this fantastic area so close to Dunedin.

To close these tracks would be a disaster to the Dunedin community!

We need more access to tracks and green spaces with less barriers to access not more! Keep your hands OFF public access!

Absolutely opposed to these restrictions. One of Dunedin’s greatest assets are these trails, restricting access devalues Dunedin.
