Submission to the Productivity Commission on the Draft Report on Better Urban Planning
SUBMISSION TO THE PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION ON THE DRAFT REPORT ON BETTER URBAN PLANNING 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 The New Zealand Airports Association ("NZ Airports") welcomes the opportunity to comment on the Productivity Commission's Draft Report on Better Urban Planning ("Draft Report"). 1.2 NZ Airports has submitted on the Resource Legislation Amendment Bill ("RLAB") and presented to the Select Committee on the RLAB, and has also submitted on the Proposed National Policy Statement on Urban Development Capacity ("NPS-UDC"). Our members have also been closely involved in extensive plan review processes in Auckland and Christchurch. Such participation is costly and time consuming - but necessary, given the important role the planning framework plays in our operations. 1.3 As discussed in our previous submissions, it is fundamental to the development of productive urban centres that residential and business growth does not hinder the effective current or future operation of New Zealand's airports. 1.4 In our view, the Draft Report does not adequately acknowledge the importance of significant infrastructure like airports in the context of urban planning and the need to effectively manage reverse sensitivity effects on such infrastructure. This is reflected in some of the Commission's recommendations which seek to limit notification and appeal rights and introduce the ability to amend zoning without using the Schedule 1 process in the Resource Management Act 1991 ("RMA"). NZ Airports has major concerns with such recommendations as they stand to significantly curtail the ability of infrastructure providers to be involved in planning processes and have their key concerns, such as reverse sensitivity effects, taken into account.

The Carbon Footprint of Domestic Tourism
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Lincoln University Research Archive The Carbon Footprint of Domestic Tourism Technical report August 2009 2 Author: Dr. Susanne Becken Associate Professor Environment, Society & Design Division Director of LEaP Research Centre www.leap.ac.nz Commissioned by: The Hikurangi Foundation PO Box 25335 Panama Street, Wellington. Aotearoa/New Zealand +64 (0)4 905 2923 www.hikurangi.org.nz The Hikurangi Foundation is made possible by: The Tindall Foundation The Todd Foundation Disclaimer: The purpose of this report is to promote discussion and positive action. The views in this report are not necessarily the policy of the Hikurangi Foundation. 3 Foreword Hikurangi is about enabling action for a better way of life for New Zealanders. We would like to see a prosperous economy and strong society underpinned by a thriving environment. Climate change is an extremely serious threat to all of these things. But it can be tackled. In fact, acting on climate change and sustainable development is probably the only way businesses and communities will prosper in the long run. But we need forward-thinking action, now. We see the Tourism sector as critical, particularly domestic tourism, but we wanted to know more about the potential contribution to the solution that it could make. That’s why we commissioned this work to help us understand the carbon footprint of domestic tourism in New Zealand. Recent events and trends in the sector point to a potentially greater dependence on local tourism, but with its comparatively high carbon footprint (as this research reveals) this could be problematic for New Zealand.

Urban and Services, As Adopted for Notification by Whangarei District Council on 18 April 2019
IN THE MATTER OF the Resource Management Act 1991 AND IN THE MATTER OF Proposed Plan Changes 82A&B, 88A-J, 109, 115, 136, 143, 144, 145, 147 & 148 - Urban and Services, as Adopted for notification by Whangarei District Council on 18 April 2019. STATEMENT OF EVIDENCE BY STEPHEN L WESTGATE (Submitter No. 196) QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE 1. I have set out my qualifications and experience in my statement of evidence relating to Norsand’s submission, no. 262. I won’t repeat them here. 2. DEFINITIONS (Whangarei District Plan) It is perhaps appropriate at the outset to refer to the definitions of the key terms relevant to this matter of airport noise control. The operative Whangarei District Plan defines: Airnoise Boundary Air Noise Boundary defines the area around Whangarei Airport within which the 24 hour daily aircraft noise exposure will be sufficiently high as to require appropriate landuse controls or other measures to avoid, remedy or mitigate any adverse effect on the environment, including effects on community health and amenity values, whilst recognising the need to operate an airport efficiently. The average night-weighted sound exposure over a 24 hour period at the Air Noise Boundary shall not exceed 65Ldn. The Air Noise Boundary shall be established in accordance with NZS6805:1992. Outer Control Boundary defines an area outside the Air Noise Boundary within which there shall be no further incompatible land uses. The predicted 3 month average night-weighted sound exposure at or outside, the outer control boundary shall not exceed 55 dB Ldn. Air Noise Margin means the area of land that lies between the Air Noise Boundary and the Outer Control boundary, as identified on Planning Map 46.

Northland & the Bay of Islands
© Lonely Planet Publications 154 www.lonelyplanet.com 155 Northland & the Bay of Islands For many New Zealanders, the phrase ‘up north’ conjures up sepia-toned images of family fun in the sun, pohutukawa in bloom and dolphins frolicking in pretty bays. It’s uttered in NORTHLAND & THE NORTHLAND & THE almost hallowed tones, as if describing a mythical place. From school playgrounds to work BAY OF ISLANDS cafeterias, owning a bach (holiday house) ‘up north’ is a passport to popularity. Beaches are the main drawcard and they’re present in profusion. Take your pick from surfy or sheltered, massive or minuscule, fashionable or forgotten, and from sand that’s golden, grey, pink or blindingly white. There are beaches suited to all sorts of aquatic pursuits imaginable, BAY OF ISLANDS including splashing about in the nuddy. Visitors from more crowded countries are flummoxed NORTHLAND & THE NORTHLAND & THE to wander onto beaches without a scrap of development or another human being in sight. Northland’s reserves shelter the most spectacular remnants of the ancient kauri forests that once blanketed the top of the country. The remaining giant trees are an awe-inspiring sight and one of the nation’s treasures. It’s not just natural attractions that are on offer: history hangs heavily here as well. The country was colonised from the top down by successive migrations from Polynesia and a strong Maori presence remains to this day, adding an extra dimension to any visit. The Bay of Islands was also the site of the first permanent European settlement, as well as the signing of the Declaration of the Independence of New Zealand by local chiefs in 1835 and the Treaty of Waitangi five years later.
