Members may be recorded as absent on community board business where their absence is a result of a commitment made on behalf of the community board. For clarification, the acceptance of a member’s apology constitutes a grant of ‘leave of absence’ for that specific meeting(s). 2 Pirongia Ward Committee 10 March 2020 - Disclosure of Members' Interests To: The Chairperson and Members of the Pirongia Ward Committee From: Governance Subject: DISCLOSURE OF MEMBERS’ INTERESTS Members are reminded to stand aside from decision making when a conflict arises between their role as a member of the Council Committee and any private or external interest they may have. 3 Pirongia Ward Committee 10 March 2020 - Late Items To: The Chairperson and Members of the Pirongia Ward Committee From: Governance Subject: LATE ITEMS Items not on the agenda for the meeting require a resolution under section 46A of the Local Government Official Information and Meetings Act 1987 stating reasons why the item was not on the agenda and why it cannot be dealt with at a subsequent meeting as an agenda item.

Waipā District Council intends to work closely with the community to manage this change so Pirongia’s great quality of life, natural assets, and significant heritage are sustained. The Pirongia Village Concept Plan Refresh updates the original Pirongia Town Concept Plan from 2010 with a contemporary vision and priority actions. The community provided bold ideas for Pirongia’s future. These ideas resulted in a long-term vision and series of actions focused on the highest priority facets of the village. Mana whenua partners worked with Council to contribute their own ideas and align the vision and resulting actions with iwi aspirations and values. Current work programmes provide limited opportunities to deliver key actions. The 2024- 2034 Long Term Plan will become the anchor for the vision and key actions, confirming funding and timing for new projects. Waipā District Council continues to support Pirongia by focusing on those things that matter most to mana whenua and the community. VISION In 50 years Pirongia village is renowned for its close community ties, with a mountain and waterways that are accessible and full of vitality.

It is an impossible task that we have asked of David to capture in a few pages the journey of the Church in this area. A journey from one site to another, a journey taking the Gospel from place to place — a journey on foot, on horse back, pushbike, motorbike and car — a journey with people as they make their commitment, receiving forgiveness and love and in turn reaching out to others.

  • Feasibility Study St Andrews Presbyterian Church, Te Awamutu
    Feasibility Study St Andrews Presbyterian Church, Te Awamutu Community Complex 13 March 2020 1 Executive Summary St Andrews Presbyterian Church in Te Awamutu proposes to build a church and community complex at its site next to the CBD and bordering the Te Awamutu community hub area. St Andrews has been located at the site for many years but in recent years had to demolish the old church because of earthquake standards. The remaining buildings also need strengthening to meet earthquake standards and are no longer fit for purpose. The old St Andrews facilities have clearly been both church and community facilities and have served many generations. They are well used currently by a wide range of community groups and activities despite their current limitations. St Andrews has strong relationships across local communities and has been responsive to community needs locally. Groups using the existing facilities have indicated that they are keen to continue their association with St Andrews and to use the proposed new complex. The proposed complex will include a single building of 1086m2 incorporating an auditorium, seminar room/auditorium extension, hall, commercial kitchen, hub area, youth area, 3 small meeting and counselling rooms, administration area, entrance foyer and 62 on-site carparks, with ample alternative parking nearby. Resource and building consents are already in place. The design is multi-purpose, flexible and highly accessible. The population in Te Awamutu, nearby Kihikihi and surrounding districts is growing rapidly and there is a level of deprivation in Te Awamutu and Kihikihi that means responsive community organisations are particularly important. While there are other venues in Te Awamutu, most are sports-oriented, dated, centred on a bar, limited to 1 or 2 spaces, or suitable for different sized groups.
