  • Lessons Learnt Preparing a 30 Year Infrastructure Strategy for the Queenstown-Lakes District
    A CASE STUDY: LESSONS LEARNT PREPARING A 30 YEAR INFRASTRUCTURE STRATEGY FOR THE QUEENSTOWN-LAKES DISTRICT Lead Author: Polly Lambert Policy, Standards & Assets Planner, Queenstown Lakes District Council Queenstown Co-Author: Dr Deborah Lind Infrastructure Advisor, Rationale Ltd Arrowtown Abstract The Local Government Act 2002 Amendment Act 2014 became law on 8 August 2014, requiring councils to prepare an infrastructure strategy for at least a 30 year period, and to incorporate this into their long-term plans from 2015. The Queenstown Lakes District is a recognised tourism destination that supports economic growth across the southern part of the South Island of New Zealand and contributes significantly to the ‘NZ Inc.’ global brand. As such, the district is attractive to local and international investment in housing, services and visitor related activities. The current resident population of 29,000 supports the infrastructure services for a peak day population of 100,000 people. Combined with the fact that the District is one of the highest future growth areas in the country, this placed increased pressure on the three waters and transport services in terms of capacity and service delivery. This paper will share the approach, challenges and outcomes of preparing a 30 year infrastructure strategy for the Queenstown Lakes District and the lessons learnt to inform, and improve on, future infrastructure planning. Key Words (wiki’s) 30 Year Infrastructure Strategy, LGA Section 101, Asset Management, Forward Planning, Long Term Plan, Evidence Based Decision Making adventure, exploration, creativity or relaxation. Our District The Queenstown Lakes District is The Queenstown Lakes District has a land synonymous with innovation, adventure and area of 8,705 km² and a total area (including bucket lists.

  • Queenstown Lakes District Plan Review, Chapter 26: Historic Heritage
    DISTRICT PLAN REVIEW CHAPTER 26: HISTORIC HERITAGE SUBMISSION TO THE QUEENSTOWN LAKES DISTRICT COUNCIL 23 OCTOBER 2015 1. BACKGROUND TO IPENZ The Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand (IPENZ) is the lead national professional body representing the engineering profession in New Zealand. It has approximately 16,000 Members, and includes a cross-section of engineering students, practising engineers, and senior Members in positions of responsibility in business. IPENZ is non-aligned and seeks to contribute to the community in matters of national interest giving a learned view on important issues, independent of any commercial interest. As the lead engineering organisation in New Zealand, IPENZ has responsibility for advocating for the protection and conservation of New Zealand’s engineering heritage. IPENZ manages a Heritage Register and a Heritage Record for engineering items throughout New Zealand. The IPENZ Engineering Heritage Register has criteria and thresholds similar to Category 1 historic places on Heritage New Zealand’s New Zealand Heritage List/Rārangi Kōrero. Items on our Register have been assessed as being engineering achievements of outstanding or special heritage significance. IPENZ is still populating the Register. The IPENZ Engineering Heritage Record includes histories of industrial and engineering items around New Zealand, and is also subject to ongoing improvements and additions. 2. GENERAL COMMENTS 2.1 INTRODUCTION The scheduling of heritage places in the District Plans of local authorities is an important mechanism that IPENZ supports because of our objective of promoting the protection, preservation and conservation of New Zealand’s engineering heritage. The Queenstown Lakes District has a very rich heritage and in particular has a wealth of industrial and engineering heritages sites because of the area’s early mining, agricultural and pastoral history and its challenging topography.

My name is Ben William Trotter. I am a director of Luggate Irrigation Company Limited (“LIC”) and hold a majority shareholding. 2. My background includes a degree in Agricultural Science, Lincoln University. With my wife we farm beef cattle on the southern flats below the Wanaka airport under spray irrigation. I manage the South Island operations for a New Zealand’s largest seed business. I sit on a number of iwi advisory boards in the North Island and am a member of the “greener pastures” project which is a collaboration between Massey University, Lincoln University, Plant and Food Research on forages for reduced nitrate leaching. 3. My agricultural science background has enabled me to put into practice best management principles learnt from university. Some examples of this include cell grazing, rotational grazing, optimising fertility and direct drilling to minimise soil disturbance. 4. We purchased the Big River block off Colin Harvey, Lake McKay station just over 12 months ago and have been using LIC deemed permits to irrigate 108ha. 5. The investment into efficient spray irrigation on the big river block has been significant and the scheme has been installed with large capital cost and a long term view in mind.
