New Plymouth District Council Freedom Camping Bylaw Submissions – Consultation 25 August to 26 September 2018 New Plymouth District Council Freedom Camping Bylaw Submissions – Consultation 25 August to 26 September 2018 Submission No: 1; Ken Bedford, Chairman Organisation: Clifton Community Board Address: c/- Private Bag 2025, New Plymouth Wish to speak to the Council: Yes 15 mins Feedback How should freedom camping be managed for the summer period at: Waiwhakaiho River Mouth Ban with the exception of selected carparks identified for freedom camping East End Beach Ban with the exception of selected carparks identified for freedom camping Kawaroa Park Ban with the exception of selected carparks identified for freedom camping Comments: The Clifton Community Board have opted for the least intrusive and have concerns over monitoring of the spaces that will be made available without which, the provision of the rules is meaningless. How should freedom camping be managed for the winter period at: Waiwhakaiho River Mouth Ban with the exception of selected carparks identified for freedom camping Fitzroy Beach Ban with the exception of selected carparks identified for freedom camping East End Beach Ban with the exception of selected carparks identified for freedom camping Kawaroa Park Ban with the exception of selected carparks identified for freedom camping Oakura Beach Front Ban with the exception of selected carparks identified for freedom camping Comments: Again the Board have concerns over the monitoring of the spaces that will be made available. NPDC is proposing to require non-self-contained freedom campers to stay at specific areas near suitable public toilets within the district, do you agree with the proposals below? Back Beach middle carpark – 4 spaces for NSC Yes Battiscombe Terrace – 6 spaces for NSC Yes 1 Bell Block – Mangati Walkway – 6 spaces for NSC Yes Corbett Park – 6 spaces for NSC Yes Fitzroy Shopping Centre – 11 spaces for NSC No Hickford Park – 11 spaces for NSC Yes Inglewood CBD – 15 spaces for NSC No Kawaroa Park – 14 spaces for NSC Yes Lake Rotomanu – 4 spaces for NSC Yes Moturoa shopping centre – 2 spaces for NSC No New Plymouth CBD – Exaloo – 3 spaces for NSC No New Plymouth CBD – Gover Street – 4 spaces for NSC No Oakura CBD – 2 spaces for NSC No Okato – 2 spaces for NSC No Pukekura Park, Rogan Street – 9 spaces for NSC No Waitara CBD – 6 spaces for NSC No Westown Shopping Centre – 2 spaces for NSC No Wind Wand carpark – 8 spaces for NSC No Yandle Park – 2 spaces for NSC No Comments: The Clifton Community are against non-self-contained freedom camping in any CBD or residential area and have a strong preference for a specific campground provision being made available. For how many nights should non-self-contained vehicles be allowed to stay in the same public area within a 30 day period? One night Comments: Without supervision, any designated number of nights is, again, meaningless. How should NPDC manage tents and other temporary structures when freedom camping in New Plymouth District? Comments: All tent users should be encouraged to use the campgrounds. The Clifton Community Board encourage the NPD to look at a purpose built freedom campground for non-self contained such as the one developed at the Huatoki. Additional Comments: The Clifton Community Board would like to see the number of freedom camping sites at Tongaporutu limited to 15 spaces. The Tongaporutu community have requested that the area adjacent to the boat ramp be a "no camping" area between 24 December and 2 January due to the area being highly used by the community and additional visitors to the area. (High Use) Waiiti Beach be classified as no freedom camping. White Cliffs (end of Pukearuhe Road) be no freedom camping as people launch boats from this area and it is the beginning of a walkway. There are no toilets in this area and limited parking. There is scope in the area for the Council to develop for the purposes of fishing, camping and walking. 2 Submission No: 2; Andrew Larsen, Joe Rauner, Jonathan Marshall and Trevor Dodunski Organisation: Waitara Community Board Address: c/- Private Bag 2025, New Plymouth, 4343 Wish to speak to the Council: Yes 15 mins Feedback How should freedom camping be managed for the summer period at: Waiwhakaiho River Mouth East End Beach Kawaroa Park Comments: N/A How should freedom camping be managed for the winter period at: Waiwhakaiho River Mouth Fitzroy Beach East End Beach Kawaroa Park Oakura Beach Front Comments: N/A NPDC is proposing to require non-self-contained freedom campers to stay at specific areas near suitable public toilets within the district, do you agree with the proposals below?

Three nights Comments: How should NPDC manage tents and other temporary structures when freedom camping in New Plymouth District? Comments: The Waitara Community Board would prefer to see a time limit of 6pm - 9am put in place within 100m of a public toilet. Additional comments: The Waitara Community Board support freedom camping in principle and would not like to see it restricted as visitors should be encouraged. We need to share out tikanga with the widest group possible. The Waitara Community Board request that the following restrictions be put in place within 100 meters of any public toilet across the district, taking into account the Summer and Winter daylight savings periods: Summer: 6pm - 9am Winter: 4pm - 9am 2 Submission No: 3; Doug Hislop Organisation: Kaitake Community Board Address: Wish to speak to the Council: Yes 5 minutes NEW PLYMOUTH DISTRICT COUNCIL Freedom Camping Submission from the Kaitake Community Board PREAMBLE The Kaitake Community Board (KCB) takes the view that our community is already doing more than its fair share of freedom camping provision, and therefore does not support any additions as suggested in the Council resolution. As well the KCB has determined not to comment on freedom camping proposals outside its geographical area. The KCB believes that those deliberations rest with the decision-makers and the various communities concerned. For the winter period (1 May to 31 October) should freedom camping be managed on the Oakura Beach Front? Yes. We believe there should be a total ban on freedom camping of any description on any area of the Oakura Beachfront throughout the year. KCB members have canvassed opinions on this, and there is a clear community message that freedom camping there is inappropriate. During the summer months beachfront parking is often at a premium and providing freedom camping spaces is nonsensical. All possible parking spaces are within 400 metres of the Oakura Beach Holiday Park, and the close proximity of residential housing to the beachfront is another reason. During the winter period much of the parking area is roped off to allow the grassed summer parking surface to recover, horse floats regularly park on the hard parking area (as they are quite entitled to do) and the other parking spaces are invariably taken up by locals accessing the Shearer Reserve playground and skatepark. (see attached images). There is also more parking requirements generated by customers to the Vertigo surfshop and the Black Sands restaurant. The loss of access to the area for the local community and day visitors from throughout the district is an undesirable outcome. NPDC is proposing to require non self-contained freedom campers to stay in specific areas near suitable public toilets within the district. Do you agree with the following proposals? Oakura CBD - 2 spaces for non-self contained. No. We believe there should be no such designated parking spaces in the village CBD. Parking is already at capacity in that location and there is no support for such a freedom camping ‘solution’. Local residents already are coping as best they can with the parking issues and designation of any such spaces will only add a further layer of discontent. There is also the question of the nuisance of extra generated rubbish. Currently, the provided rubbish bins do not cope with the demand. For example, the Oakura Four Square is emptying the overflowing public bin into its skip daily. It would be an ill- conceived outcome to allow any designated spaces in the village CBD. 1 For how many nights should non self-contained vehicles be allowed to stay in the same public area within a 30-day period? 1, 2, or 3 nights? The KCB believes the following should apply. Corbett Park - 1 night during the summer period (1 November to 30 April). - 3 nights during the winter period (1 May to 31 October). AhuAhu Beachfront - 3 nights. Weld Road Beachfront - 3 nights. How should NPDC manage tents and other temporary structures when freedom camping in the NPDC district? 1 night only, or full ban. The KCB supports a total ban in our area.

    March 2021 Ultimate Denby Scott PHOTO CREDIT: Frisbee Owen Ellington reaching for the win on Ōākura beach Hello TOP people ‘I need you, you need me, together we make a great team’ With the recent change in Covid levels this quote sums it up for me. Once again and seemingly not for the last time, we were all asked to do our bit for our country and each other. I need you, to do your ‘bit’, so I and those dear to me, get the best chance of not contracting covid. ‘You need me’ to do my ‘bit’ to keep you and yours well. Without each oth- er it would be a lot more difficult to achieve. Thank you for watching out for me and rest as- sured I am doing my best to watch out for you. This quote is also true for getting The Ōākura Post published each month. I need you to keep getting the stories to me so I can get your mes- “Kawa is what we do, sage out, and as a community we all benefit. Be proud of the effort put in so far, we are the tikanga is how we do it.” envy of the world right now and we all made that happen. Tracey Te Reo Māori is the kawa. How Te Reo Māori is spoken is the tikanga. Kawa is the policy and tikanga are the procedures on how the policy is realised. The Ōākura Post To put it simply, kawa is what we do, tikanga is how we do it.

  • This Month Tapuae Farm Estate
    he akura essenger This month DECEMBER 2003 Tapuae Farm Estate The “Bulls For Hire” billboard on Surf Highway 45’s Tapuae Hill will soon be a thing of the past as the development moves into top gear. To even the most unobservant motorist, the activity level on this hilltop is evident. Roading ma- chines, diggers and dozers are all moving into the next exciting phase of devel- opment at the Farm Estate. From billboards to schist and cedar, marble and glass, G&Ts and BMWs! Move over Tom and Penelope! But how do you encapsulate in one short story the essence of Tapuae Farm Estate and John and Mary Washer? It’s hard to think of one without the other and whether The Farm Estate has made John and Mary or John and Mary have made the Farm Estate is a moot point, because as you talk with them you real- ise the passion, verve and enthusiasm is matched only by the “mana” of Ta- puae Hill. The site is just so breathtakingly perfect that I can already envisage a small community living there. And I get the feeling that a small community where people care and interact with one another is the vision John and Mary have for Tapuae Farm. The word “destiny” pops up before “vision”. John says “We were invited to buy this farm. It didn’t make any sense to buy it and initially we lost a lot of money. We sold off 50 acres to the Haywards for their Vineyard and we have had other offers for land parcels as well but they always fell through.
