Project Update 2: Taupō Sports Fishery Review Exploring Future Opportunities for the Taupō Fishery Project Update #2 The Taupō Sports Fishery Review is now progressing through the final stages of the public consultation and engagement stage. To date the Project Team has met with the following groups: • Lake Rotoaira Forest Trust • Taupō District Council • Key Department staff, including Fisheries Staff • Fish and Game • Business, marketing and events representatives • Local fishing guides (Turangi and Taupō, Boat and River ) Members of the working team have also talked to a wide number of individuals (fishing guides, business owners, fishers etc) who have contacted us and provided some useful insights and information based on their knowledge and experience in the Taupō Fishery and wider. Survey The online survey has also closed with 742 responses received, a summary report is attached. The responses are currently being assessed by APR Experts (who are preparing the economic assessment of the fishery) and Michael in National Office (to look at social responses, comments and trends). The team is very pleased with this response and is far in excess of what was anticipated. Economic Assessment The 1983 economic assessment of the Taupō Fishery is currently being revised by APR Consultants, who undertook the initial report. This assessment will provide the value of the fishery to the Taupō District as well as a wider range of information on use and associated spending and user trends. Public Workshops Two public workshops have been scheduled next week in Turangi and Taupō. The intent of the workshops is to provide participants with a brief update on the progress of the project and test some of the findings of the survey and wider consultation to date. A media release and public notice is currently being prepared for these workshops. The workshops will be held in Tūrangi on 28th November, 5.30pm at the Tūrangi Citizens Advice Bureau Hall and Taupō 29th November, 5.30pm at the Taupō Yacht Club. A light supper will be provided, for catering purposes please RSVP to Kim Alexander-Turia – [email protected] or 07 384 7163. Preparing the Report The project team is currently putting together a draft framework for the final report to start to discuss their initial findings and thoughts based on the information gathered so far. It is anticipated that the report and associated recommendations will be structured around what the key components of the fishery as identified through work done to date. These components are shown on the diagram below: What is the Goal of the fishery? Healthy Sustainable Fish Strong Effective Stock partnerships and Increasing Participation (the ‘fishery’) relationships What is coming up? As well as fleshing out the final report the next important dates are: • 28 November 2012, Public Workshop in Turangi • 29 November 2012, Public Workshop in Taupō • 3 December 2012 Workshop with Taupō Fishery Advisory Council (TFAC) • 11 December Workshop with Taupō District Council and Turangi Tongariro Board Further Information For further information on this project please visit the project website at www.doc.govt.nz/taupofishery or contact the Project Leader David Lumley Taupō -nui- a-Tia Area Office Manager on 07 3847135 or [email protected].

    Taupō District Council Infrastructure Strategy 2021-51 Taupō District Council Infrastructure Strategy 2021-51 1. PURPOSE The purpose of this Infrastructure Strategy to identify issues that will face Council’s infrastructure over the next 30 years, and to identify the options available for addressing the issues. 2. INTRODUCTION Infrastructure is essential to connect people and place. In Aotearoa, the provision of services and facilities that meet the current and future needs of communities falls under the responsibilities of district councils. Effective infrastructure planning is critical to ensure economic prosperity and to enable populations to access fundamental services and facilities of everyday living. However, building and maintaining infrastructure is expensive and requires careful and considered management to ensure the current and future needs of communities are provided for. Strategic and integrated planning is required to review, anticipate and adapt to changing scenarios There are six themes that will influence the decisions we make about maintaining and managing our infrastructure over the next 30 years. These themes are: • Population and demographic change • Protecting the health of our communities • Protecting the health of our environment • Maintaining and renewing our infrastructure • The resilience of our infrastructure • Providing for the Māori world view By understanding these themes mentioned above, the strategy will identify the issues facing our infrastructure and then discuss the options available for responding

The mountains at the heart of the Park have cultural and religious significance for the Maori people and symbolize the spiritual links between this community and its environment. The Park has active and extinct volcanoes, a wide range of ecosystems from the once nationwide Podocarp- broadleaf rainforest to subalpine meadows and some spectacular landscapes.
