  • Waikato Regional Economic Development Programme 2018-2022 Te Waka - Anga Whakamua Waikato
    Waikato Regional Economic Development Programme 2018-2022 Te Waka - Anga Whakamua Waikato The inspiration for the Te Waka logo comes from the takarangi/double spiral on the tauihu found between the two figures (tauihu figurehead and kaitiaki) and the multiple ripples made as the warrior’s hoe is driven into the awa. The double spiral represents heritage (past) and opportunity (future). By using two double spirals, our logo represents the coming together of different people/ kaupapa merging into one, to help drive the waka forward.

This programme is the culmination of the work of previous regional economic development organisations including Waikato Means Business, the many organisations currently involved in economic growth in the Waikato, and the countless ideas put forward both at the Waikato Economic Summit in late August 2018 and in the many discussions which have taken place since that date. The programme is an overarching narrative of the things which Te Waka thinks are the big drivers for the region’s economic future, as well as a discrete series of projects and initiatives.

  • Christmas in the City About the Importance of Water Conservation
    SUMMER 2012/13 // CITYNEWS Every drop counts WITH FORECASTS of a hot summer ahead, Hamiltonians are being reminded Christmas in the city about the importance of water conservation. The Waikato River creates a false perception that the city and region has an endless supply of water. In reality Council has consent for a certain amount to supply residents and businesses. During the summer of 2007/08 a regional drought triggered a total sprinkler ban in Hamilton – a first for the city – which highlighted how precious the river’s resources are. This summer Hamilton City Council, Waikato District Council and Waipa District Council are again joining together to promote water conservation. The Smart Water Use initiative uses a water alert level system designed to proactively manage the region’s water demand over summer and encourages people to conserve water in their day-to-day lives. The water alert level system includes varying alert levels and restrictions which can be triggered by factors including rainfall, weather predictions, water consumption levels and annual trend data. Updates on the city’s water alert level and restrictions will be available throughout summer through public notices, radio advertising, signage, Facebook updates, the Council website and by phoning 07 838 6699. • www.hamilton.co.nz/smartwateruse • www.facebook.com/ hamiltoncitycouncil Changes over FUN FESTIVITIES: Magical events are planned across the city in the lead up to Christmas this year to delight and enthrall youngsters – and the young at heart! The newly launched Hamilton Christmas City brand has become a reality, with the Hamilton Christmas City Working Group (pictured) busy working Christmas with community groups to ensure Hamilton becomes the home of festive cheer.

  • Greening the City: Bringing Biodiversity Back Into the Urban
    Section 2: Nature Friendly Environments — Communities Making it Happen Ecological restoration in Hamilton City Bruce D. Clarkson Centre for Biodiversity and Ecology Research Department of Biological Sciences, The University of Waikato, Private Bag 3105, Hamilton, New Zealand [email protected] ABSTRACT Hamilton City has less than 20 ha of high quality indigenous species dominated ecosystem and only 1.6% of the original indigenous vegetation remains within the ecological district. A gradual recognition of the magnitude of landscape transformation has gathered momentum to the stage that there is now a concerted public and private effort to retrofit the City by restoring and reconstructing indigenous ecosystems. The initial focus was on rehabilitating existing key sites but has shifted to restoring parts of the distinctive gully landform that occupies some 750 ha or 8% of the City. A new initiative at Waiwhakareke (Horseshoe Lake) will involve reconstruction from scratch of a range of ecosystems characteristic of the ecological district over an area of 60 ha. This paper examines a vision for ecological restoration in Hamilton City within the context of policy, education and community dimensions that have triggered a shift from traditional parks and gardens management to ecosystem management. INTRODUCTION The Hamilton Ecological District (159 376 ha) plant species (de Lange 1996) and is regularly in northern North Island is one of the most visited by kererū (Hemiphaga novaeseelandiae modifi ed districts in New Zealand with only novaeseelandiae).
