TAKAPUNEKE CONSERVATION REPORT General Manager responsible: General Manager, City Environment Group DDI 941-8608 Officer responsible: Unit Manager, Asset and Network Planning Author: Philippa Upton, Consultation Leader PURPOSE OF REPORT 1. The purpose of this report is for the Council to consider the recommendation from the Akaroa/Wairewa Community Board to adopt the Takapūneke Conservation Report. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2. The Takapūneke Conservation Report for Akaroa’s historic Takapūneke site was commissioned in 2009 by the Christchurch City Council to assist in decision-making for the future of the site, to guide the development of a future reserve management plan and to ensure the effective protection of Takapūneke for present and future generations. 3. The site, which is made up of six separate land parcels including the Takapūneke Reserve, Britomart Reserve and monument, Beach Road Park and Greens Point Park, was classified as Historic Reserve subject to the Reserves Act 1977 on 16 October 2008. 4. The Conservation Report has been written to establish the heritage values of Takapūneke by formulating an overview of the social, cultural, architectural and site history for the land and it’s associated structures, with careful regard given to both the tangible and intangible values of the place. The higher level principles and policies generated through in-depth research and consultation will now help inform Council processes in developing the reserve management plan. 5. The conservation report in conjunction with the future management plan will ensure that the cultural, spiritual and heritage values of the site will guide the future of this highly significant site. In addition, to reflect the national significance of the Takapūneke Historic Reserve, the Council has resolved to seek National Reserve status for the Reserve. 6. Few conservation reports or plans have been completed in this country for wāhi tapu sites, which are principally of intangible value. The development of this conservation report has provided an important opportunity for the Council to work in partnership with Te Rūnanga o Ōnuku (Ōnuku Rūnanga) and to liaise with key stakeholders and interested parties to ensure the cultural heritage values of Takapūneke are identified and safeguarded. 7. The Conservation Report has been prepared by a team of consultants appointed by the Council: This team was led by a heritage consultant and included an historian, heritage architect, landscape architect, archaeologist, Ngāi Tahu adviser for cultural and heritage values, Māori Heritage Advisor/Pouārahi, the New Zealand Historic Places Trust Pouhere Taonga. 8. A steering group was established comprising representatives from the Council, New Zealand Historic Places Trust and Mahaanui Kurataiao Ltd (MKT) as delegated representatives of Ōnuku Rūnanga. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS 9. There are no financial implications directly arising from the adoption of this Conservation Report. 6. 12. 2012 Akaroa/Wairewa Community Board 14.11.2012 1 Cont’d Do the Recommendations of this Report Align with 2009-19 LTCCP budgets? 10. Not Applicable. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS 11. The six separate parcels making up Takapūneke Historic Reserve were classified by Council resolution on 16 October 2008 as Historic Reserve under section 18 of the Reserves Act 1977. Have you considered the legal implications of the issue under consideration? 12. Yes. ALIGNMENT WITH LTCCP AND ACTIVITY MANAGEMENT PLANS Do the recommendations of this report support a level of service or project in the 2009-19 LTCCP? 13. Yes, the Conservation report will contribute to meeting the Council strategic direction to “Preserve and conserve heritage items and outdoor art work” in the Garden and Heritage Parks Activity Management Plan. ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIES Do the recommendations align with the Council’s strategies? 14. Yes, the recommendation meets requirements of Council Heritage Conservation Policy to prepare conservation plans for all listed heritage buildings, places and objects in Council ownership. CONSULTATION FULFILMENT 15. To enable the tangata whenua cultural heritage values to be strongly reflected in the document considerable consultation, kōrero and hui have been undertaken with Ōnuku Rūnanga via MKT. The brief specified that the report be developed in partnership with Ōnuku Rūnanga who delegated MKT to carry out this role on their behalf. 16. A hui was held for consultants and the steering group in the early stages of the plan which included a site visit, and other hui have been held via MKT to explain the report and gain approval from the Rūnanga. Members of the steering group attended the Waitangi weekend and Takapūneke celebrations in 2010. 17. The Akaroa Civic Trust and Akaroa Museum have assisted the steering group by providing valuable input throughout the development of the conservation report. There has been opportunity for feedback at key stages of the report’s development following meetings at initiation, first draft, draft for consultation (February 2011) and final draft. Comments raised during each stage have been considered and resulted in changes to the final report. 18. Acknowledgement

  • Strategy and Policy Committee Report Back on Attendance at the Emergency Management Conference
    STRATEGY AND POLICY COMMITTEE 7 MARCH 2013 REPORT 5 (1215/52/IM) REPORT BACK ON ATTENDANCE AT THE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE – FEBRUARY 2012 1. Purpose of Report To report back to all Councillors on the Conference including the subjects covered and an opinion of the value of attendance by Elected Members. 2. Purpose of Report It is recommended that the Strategy and Policy Committee 1. Receive the information. 3. Details of the Conference On February 22nd 2011 I was attending an Emergency Management Conference. Guest speakers spoke of how lucky Christchurch was to have survived the previous September 4th quake with no loss of life. We broke for lunch and at 12.51pm Christchurch suffered another major earthquake. This time it was not so lucky and it became obvious, from the experts in the room that this would be serious. The conference was cancelled and I went home to watch the grim news unfold on television. In February 2012 the conference reconvened. This time there was much to discuss. I was unfortunately not able to attend all sessions as a fellow councillor who was to also attend and do some of the sessions was not able to be there. The first day started with keynote speakers: Clive Manley, head of Auckland Council Civil Defence, Hon Chris Tremain Minister of Civil Defence and Mayor Bob Parker. Bob told us 71,000 homes were affected, 40,000 chemical toilets were distributed, half a million tons of silt was moved and $1billion of damage was done to the waste water system alone. After morning tea we heard from Dr Richard Sharpe of BECA.

  • Christchurch City Holdings Limited Is a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of Christchurch City Council
    Christchurch City Holdings Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Christchurch City Council cChristchurchc Cityh Holdingsl Investing in the city’s infrastructure The primary purpose of Christchurch City Holdings Ltd (CCHL) is to invest in and promote the establishment of key infrastructure, and this now extends to assisting the Council in the rebuild and redevelopment of Christchurch following the Canterbury earthquakes. CCHL will continue to invest in existing and new infrastructural assets such as the electricity distribution network, the airport, port, transport and high speed broadband. CCHL’s strategic approach is to identify infrastructural needs that are not or cannot be filled by the private sector or existing Council operations, then take a role in helping to meet those needs through joint ventures, public-private partnerships, establishing new entities or simply acting as a catalyst for others. Appropriate investment is encouraged and, if necessary, facilitated by CCHL in its trading companies when significant upgrades are required to existing infrastructural assets – recent examples being the establishment and funding of Enable Services, and the provision of some of the funding requirements for the construction of the new airport terminal. CCHL is supportive of its companies as they deal with post-earthquake repairs and rebuild of assets and markets. 2 About CCHL Christchurch City Holdings Ltd (CCHL) is the commercial and investment arm of Christchurch City Council. The company is responsible for managing the Council’s investment in eight fully or partly-owned Council-controlled trading organisations – Orion New Zealand Ltd, Christchurch International Airport Ltd, Lyttelton Port Company Ltd, Enable Services Ltd, City Care CHRISTCHURCH Ltd, Red Bus Ltd, EcoCentral Ltd and Selwyn CITY HOLDINGS Plantation Board Ltd.

  • Media Release Christchurch's Roadmap for Infrastructure Rebuild
    Media Release Christchurch's roadmap for infrastructure rebuild Release Date: 07 September 2012 The five year schedule for the rebuild of Christchurch's earthquake-damaged roads and underground services was released today by the Minister for Canterbury Earthquake Recovery Gerry Brownlee and Christchurch Mayor Bob Parker. The plan includes a map setting out indicative timeframes for infrastructure repairs in different areas of the city. The work has been prioritised based on a range of factors, with the aim being to first fix the worst-affected areas that impact on the most people. "This work is one piece of a much bigger and complex city-wide recovery programme," says Minister Brownlee. "But it is highly significant as underground services need to be rebuilt and future-proofed so that the city's recovery is founded on a secure infrastructure base. "It will take another four years to rebuild Christchurch's horizontal infrastructure and deciding what comes first is not easy. We've used a robust model to prioritise the work and that's what we're launching today. Of course, things might change as work progresses, but residents can now have a good idea of when we'll be working in their neighbourhood." Mayor Parker says the works schedule underpins confidence in the city’s recovery and reinvestment in the South Island's largest city. "People will begin to see a more resilient and forward-looking city emerging from the legacy of the earthquakes," he says. "The schedule we are launching today gives certainty for the future; but we have already made good progress on the rebuild and work has been ongoing for more than a year now.

  • The Maori Response Following the February 22, 2011 Christchurch Earthquake
    Iwi Resilience? The Maori Response Following the February 22, 2011 Christchurch Earthquake. M. Kipa1, R. Potangaroa2, S. Wilkinson3 1The Seaview Resilience Centre, Christchurch, NZ 2School of Architecture, Unitec Auckland, NZ 3School of Engineering, University of Auckland, NZ Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The apparent treatment of some Maori following the September 4 2010 Earthquake in Christchurch resulted in the setting up of a Maori Response Network MRN when the subsequent February 22 2011 Earthquake occurred. This paper briefly reviews what happened to Maori in the month immediately after that earthquake and suggests there are three key themes that Iwi need to address based on what happened in Christchurch namely: 1. To what extent are Iwi capable of dealing with emergency, transitional and long term reconstruction requirements in their areas? 2. How do Iwi ensure the sustainability of post-disaster reconstruction projects optimizing the economic, environmental and social constraints in alignment with the needs and priorities of the affected communities? 3. Can Iwi reconstruction programmes blend modern and traditional methods in ways that vulnerability is reduced and resilience is enhanced? Maori appear to be more urban based with 84% living in metropolitan areas and especially for Auckland where 25% of that number reside1. Thus, what can be understood from Christchurch may/would be expected to have significance in these other urban areas outside Christchurch. INTRODUCTION The MRN was set up at Rehua Marae in central Christchurch and was established ostensibly to facilitate communication and to identify the appropriate service providers over the short to medium term to following the February 2011 Earthquake.
