The ‘ordinary’ season helps us to normalise God’s The ‘ordinary’ season in the life of the church year presence and our faith in God in the day-to-day Gsees us through most of the coming months leading reality of life, but it also has the power to open us into Advent and ultimately Christmas. As we are so often up to a movement of God in the world that is far reminded, this time between Easter and Christmas can be from conventional. It should be no surprise that it characterised by mock countdowns to Christmas, to mark out is often during this time in the liturgical calendar how many shopping days are left.

  • 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.

  • Asset Management Plan 2014 – 2024
    Asset Management Plan 2014 – 2024 1 April 2014 Summary Summary of ENL’s AMP Purpose of the AMP This Asset Management Plan (“AMP”) has been prepared to meet regulatory compliance requirements, demonstrate responsible asset stewardship, integrate stakeholder views, and communicate and justify network management practice and expenditure to Eastland Network Limited (“ENL”) stakeholders. Presentation of the AMP in this format also meets the requirements of the Electricity Distribution Information Disclosure Determination 2012. Primary stakeholders include ENL’s shareholder and customers, including retailers, generators and end-use electricity consumers. Other parties with an interest in ENL’s asset management include contractors who physically work on the system and regulatory agencies. Many factors impact on the effective long term management of a complex network of electricity assets, the life of which exceeds the tenure of the Managers responsible for them and whose operating environment introduces significant investment risks. For this reason, the overall scope of the AMP is wide, covering the regulatory environment, future service demands and technology development. While making long term forecasts to provide sustainability and establish the framework for ENL’s future, the AMP primarily drives work programs in the short to medium term. It is in all respects a living document. The practices and processes described are subject to continuous improvement, and detailed work programs are progressively refined throughout the year. The Eastland Group asset management team is the “owner” of this AMP. Completion date & planning period Preparation of the AMP was undertaken between January 2014 and March 2014. The ten year planning period considered is from 01 April 2014 to 31 March 2024.

  • Poverty Bay Flood Evacuation Contingency Plan February 2013
    GISBORNE CDEM GROUP Poverty Bay Flood Evacuation Contingency Plan February 2013 Gisborne District Civil Defence Flood Evacuation Contingency Plan – Poverty Bay Flats ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mayor’s foreword I commend to you THE GISBORNE CIVIL DEFENCE EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT GROUP FLOOD EVACUATION CONTINGENCY PLAN – POVERTY BAY FLATS to you all. Planning is the most crucial tool in the success of any activity even more so in those that happen infrequently. I take this opportunity to thank the ‘team’ for putting this plan together for all of us. It has been achieved with minimal resources but is still able to provide a valuable resource for planning, dealing with and recovering from emergencies. I can say that the plan should give us more confidence that the Group will be able to cope with an emergency BUT the overall success still depends on the majority of the public being prepared and able to cope without assistance. I have every confidence in our staff and our trained civil defence coordinators in our region, that all our planning and training will lessen the trauma in case of an emergency. Our team has experience with Cyclone Bola and the close calls we have had since. This has meant that the team that developed the Plan has reality based knowledge and experience behind them when preparing the Civil Defence Emergency Group Management Plan. But even so we should still not be complacent as the impact of any event can still provide the unknown and in reality Bola was a small emergency. We have a good group of civil defence volunteers (community link) ready to provide leadership in an emergency, a good communication infrastructure ready to communicate with the remote parts of our region and our Council will continue to provide funds to ensure that a reasonable level of preparedness is maintained and a response structure is in place.

  • Tairāwhiti 2050 Shaping the Future of Our Region
    Te Kaunihera o Te Tairāwhiti Gisborne District Council TAIRĀWHITI 2050 SHAPING THE FUTURE OF OUR REGION TAIRĀWHITI REGIONAL SPATIAL PLAN Adopted by Gisborne District Council 2020 MŌ TĒNEI MĀHERE ABOUT THIS PLAN WHAT IS TAIRĀWHITI 2050 Tairāwhiti 2050 is Gisborne District Council’s vision for the region for the next 30 years. We call this our “spatial plan”, which is a document that: • states our region’s major challenges and how we’ll tackle them. • outlines our shared aspirations for our region’s future wellbeing and what we expect to achieve by 2050. • aligns the strategies and plans of Council, government agencies and other organisations to enable collaboration. • sets direction for regional planning and development, decision-making and investments. • maps out where critical infrastructure, transport connections and development will occur and where there are constraints. WHY WE NEED A SPATIAL PLAN The challenges and opportunities facing those who call Tairāwhiti home are complex and interconnected. How we as a community, plan and respond over the next 30 years will make a significant difference to future generations. Tairāwhiti does not have a stand-alone document that provides a clear and shared vision about what we want our region to look like in the future. Tairāwhiti 2050 therefore considers the current economic, social, environmental, physical and cultural trends so that integrated solutions are found to address the various challenges and opportunities for growth and change. No single organisation can respond alone, so region-wide collaboration is required. Together with communities and agencies we’ve created this plan to provide strategic direction in a way that considers social, economic, environmental and cultural wellbeing.

    1 On the 3rd June 2017 (Queens Birthday Weekend) Poverty Bay host East Coast Rugby Union in their annual Pre-Season clash, during this weekend a celebration of combined Poverty Bay & East Coast teams from 1955 through to 2000 is taking place. As I was making my first ever trip to Gisborne to experience this occasion I thought only it right to look into the rich history these two unions have had over these years. Especially this year, as on the day of the annual clash in Gisborne between Poverty Bay and East Coast, the 2017 British & Irish Lions open their much awaited tour of New Zealand in Whangarei against the NZ Provincial Barbarians. Since 1930 the combined team had played the “Lions” on several occasions with the 1966 clash the stand out as the combined side almost accomplished the pinnacle of a Lions scalp to only fall short with a score line of 6 – 9 in favour of the tourists. So with the help of many books and other research materials I have compiled the following details of the combined teams with full squad, team and scoring details in depth from 1955. We also cover briefly the games played pre 1955 in which several were with a mixture of teams combined with the inclusion of players from Hawkes Bay and Bay of Plenty. My hope here is to have a record that will spark debate and interest to those who may have forgotten the rich history that these two unions share Kevin Hare - RugbyHeartland.co.nz 2 Pre 1955 – (Hawkes Bay) /POVERTY BAY/EAST COAST COMBINED vs: 1950 British Lions 1949 Australia 1948 Hawkes Bay 1942 Otago 1949 Australia 1937 South Africa 1930 Great Britain 1925 New South Wales 1923 New South Wales 1921 New South Wales/South Africa POVERTY BAY EAST COAST COMBINED vs: 2000 Scotland 1992 Ireland 1990 Scotland 1989 NZ Maori 1978 NZ Maori 1977 Olympians/British Lions/Hawkes Bay 1971 Olympians/British Lions 1966 Bay of Plenty/British Lions 1965 NZ Maori/B.O.P/Sth Africa 1959 Waikato/British Lions 1956 Hawkes Bay/South Africa 1955 Australia 3 4 1955 POVERTY BAY - EAST COAST vs Australia Colours: Scarlet Selectors: Messrs.
