The longer we put off action, the more costly it will be to address this challenge. We need to work together in facing these challenges and guide where we focus our efforts and investment. Infrastructure Infrastructure, such as roading, drinking water, stormwater and wastewater, is central to our community wellbeing. We need to plan for and invest in it wisely. Maintaining existing and building new infrastructure must respond to urban growth trends as well as climate change and other hazards. THE EVIDENCE – WHAT DO WE ALREADY KNOW? Mean sea level rise Mean sea level rise projections for 100 years range between » 0.55m-1.35m Increased risk of inundation from tsunami and storm events as a » result of sea level rise.

  • 7. Poverty Bay and East Coast
    7. Poverty Bay and East Coast The first fighting in the Poverty Bay and East Coast regions took place in 1865 at Tokomaru Bay, Waiapu and Hicks Bay, mostly between sections of the Ngāti Porou tribe (Cowan 1983 II: 117–123; Soutar 2000). On one side were Pai Marire (‘Hau Hau’) or ‘Kingite’ forces and on the other ‘Queenite’ Māori forces and allied Pākehā. There followed a six-day siege of the Pai Marire pā Waerenga-a-Hika in Poverty Bay in November 1865, resulting in surrender of the pā and the deaths of 11 men on the government side and more than 100 Pai Marire (Cowan 1983 II: 124–128) . On 10 July 1868, Te Kooti Arikirangi and 300 followers landed at Whareongaonga, south of Poverty Bay, having escaped from imprisonment on the Chatham Islands. This led to fighting in the next four years over much of the central and eastern North Island, with fortifications involved at Ngatapa (7.5), inland of Poverty Bay in December 1868 and January 1869, at Whakatane in March 1869 (5.31, 5.34), Mohaka in April 1869 (8.1, 8.6), and in October 1869 at Te Porere (6.15– 16), south of Lake Taupo (Cowan 1983: II ; Binney 1995: 87–208). Fortifications in this section are listed under: • Poverty Bay • East Coast POVERTY BAY 7.1 Crow’s Nest X17/32 (2908600E 6288600N); recorded 1991, update 1999.
