In Conversation with the Mayor Gary Tong
1 IN CONVERSATION WITH THE MAYOR GARY TONG through new technology (such as through our roading team’s use of drones). On a personal note, two things have stood have out this year; one of great sadness, the other a highlight. Sadly, we farewelled former Mayor Frana Cardno in April. She was a great role model and the reason I got into politics; a wonderful woman who will be sadly missed. Rest in peace, Frana. At the other end of the spectrum, in May I helped host His Mayor Gary Tong Royal Highness Prince Harry’s visit to Stewart Island. He’s a top bloke whose visit generated fantastic publicity for the Much like before crossing the road, island and Southland District. I’m sure our tourism industry at the end of each year I like to will see the benefi ts for some while yet. pause and look both ways. Just a few months ago the Southland Regional Development Strategy was launched. It gives direction for development of the region as a whole, with the primary focus on increasing our population. It tells us focusing on population growth will There’s a lot to look back on in 2015, and mean not only more people, it will provide economic growth, there’s plenty to come in 2016. Refl ecting on skilled workers, a better lifestyle, and improved health, the year that’s been, I realise just how much education and social services. We need to work together has happened in Southland District over the to achieve this; not just councils, but business, community, past year. -

The Soils of Southland and Their Potential Uses E
THE SOILS OF SOUTHLAND AND THEIR POTENTIAL USES E. J. B. CUTLER, Pedologist, Soil Bureau, Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, Dunedin The pedologist should concern himself not only with mapping and classification of soils; he should examine the use to which soils are put and the changes that take place under varying kinds of use or misuse. The soil survey is only the starting point; it shows the physical, chemical and genetic characteristics of soils, their distribution and relationship to environment. First of all we are interested in the nature of our soils in their undisturbed native state. We can then~ follow the changes that have taken place with changing farming techniques and try to predict desirable changes or modifications; changes which will not only improve the short term production from the soils, but enable us to maintain long-term, sustained-yield production. These prin- ciples apply equally in the mountains and on the plains. Secondly we are interested in seeing that our soil resources arc used most efficiently; that usage of soils takes place in a logical way and that those concerned .with economics are aware of the limitations of the soil as well as of its potentialities. Thirdly there is the aesthetic viewpoint, perhaps not capable of strict scientific treatment but nonetheless a very important one to all of us as civilised people. There is no reason why our landscape should not be planned for pleasure as well as for profit. THE SOILS OF SOUTHLAND The basic soil pattern of Southland is fairly simple; there are three groups of soils delineated primarily by climatic factors. -

FROM POTHOLES to POLICY: How Invercargill City Council Informs Itself Of, and Has Regard To, the Views of All of Its Communities
FROM POTHOLES TO POLICY: How Invercargill City Council informs itself of, and has regard to, the views of all of its communities Janette Malcolm School of Geography, E nvironment and Earth Sciences, Victoria University of Wellington Wellington, ew Zealand Submitted in partial fulfilment of the Master of D evelopment Studies D egree JULY 2008 Abstract In the 1990s, governments in the Western world were seeking solutions to the economic and social dysfunction resulting from a decade of pure neo-liberal policies. Increased inequalities in the distribution of wealth, the promotion of individualism at the expense of community and citizens feeling alienated from government had become critical problems, nowhere more so than in New Zealand. A solution that has been adopted is to reconnect government at all levels with citizens and the civic sector. The good governance agenda proposed increased transparency and accountability of government to citizens, and a new role for citizens as participants and partners. It became the foundation for a fundamental reform of local government in New Zealand, resulting in the Local Government Act 2002. However, the acquisition of a right to participate does not necessarily lead to knowledge of that right and the capacity to exercise it on the part of citizens: nor the willingness to allow it on the part of government. There are also more general questions about the exercise of power, about representation and about whose voices are heard. This thesis, through a case study of Invercargill City Council, a local government authority in Southland, New Zealand, examines these issues relating to citizen participation and the extent to which the Council has been able to create an environment and processes that enable all of its communities to participate. -

Splash Palace Business Case & Impact Assessment
SPLASH PALACE BUSINESS CASE & IMPACT ASSESSMENT BUSINESS CASE EVALUATION FOR ESTABLISHING A FITNESS GYM AT SPLASH PALACE AND THE ANTICIPATED IMPACT ON EXISTING PROVIDERS APRIL 2016 Impact Consulting & Accounting | www.impactconsulting.co.nz | April 2016 1 Contact Details: Impact Consulting & Accounting Ltd (03) 477 8777 www.impactconsulting.co.nz [email protected] Impact Consulting & Accounting | www.impactconsulting.co.nz | April 2016 2 1 Executive Summary Invercargill City Council has a number of aspirational goals for their community as a whole. Two core objectives of a healthy vibrant community, are more people being active, with facilities that meet the needs of the community. With a view towards developing and maintain facilities infrastructure as economically as possible, this report addresses the viability of including a fitness gym as part of a wider pool foyer and changing room upgrade, and assesses the impact on existing fitness gym providers. The pool gym will have a focus on entry level programmes, rather than the level of specialist services offered by existing facilities. The brief given for this project requested an impartial assessment of the impact of the proposed gym facility on existing business. BUSINESS CASE From a financial and demand perspective this project is deemed viable. Without the proposed gym, the much needed redevelopment pool changing and reception facilities would cost $1.34M and would be entirely rate payer funded. Inclusion of the proposed gym would increase the project capital cost to $2.14M and is projected to enable the project as a whole to be rates-neutral or self-funding. Research indicates there is sufficient demand to ensure that the proposed facility will cover operational costs, as well as the debt servicing for the redevelopment.
