Omokoroa Omelette
The Omokoroa Omelette Locally produced by February 2018 Volume 14 Issue 12 Omokoroa Community Board Report by Murray Grainger Chairman Footpaths - As you will have seen, Council contractors have been undertaking footpath repairs in Omokoroa. As of the end of January 2018, 90% of the identified repairs have been completed. At the January Community Board meeting funding was approved for footpaths to be constructed in Kowai Grove and Kaharoa Avenue. The funds will come from the Omokoroa Community Roading account. A previous meeting approved funds for a short length of footpath from Omokoroa Rd down Anderley Avenue to Heidi Crescent. This work has been put on hold as the decision to “urbanise” Omokoroa Road has been brought forward. This means kerb and channel along each side and this work could well alter the relative levels of footpaths and berms. Until the design work for the urbanisation is completed the final levels will not be known. Completing this short length of footpath now and then possibly having to replace it at a different level shortly thereafter would be very poor management of ratepayer funds. Cellphone coverage - The latest information that the Board has is that we should see some progress on site in late February. Hopefully, the cellphone woes will be over soon. The Road! - The current delay is getting concrete suppliers to install the kerbing etc around the new roundabout just past the Fire Station. Once completed, the tarmac can be laid and the new alignment open to traffic. Contractors are working hard to keep the sealed road available as long as possible to minimise the time we will need to drive on unsealed sections. -
Regional Land Transport Plan Deliberations Paper - Road Network
Report To: Regional Transport Committee Meeting Date: 15 June 2018 Report From: Garry Maloney, Transport Policy Manager Regional Land Transport Plan Deliberations Paper - Road Network Executive Summary The Regional Transport Committee (RTC) received approximately 1,350 submissions on the draft Bay of Plenty Regional Land Transport 2018 (RLTP). In order to process the significant volume of submissions, seven topic-based deliberations papers have been prepared containing information and advice to assist the Hearings Subcommittee make recommendations to the Regional Transport Committee. This paper makes recommendations on matters raised in submissions that relate to the region’s road network. There are references to the road network throughout the RLTP including in national and international connections (2.1), the road component of the regional transport network (2.3.1) and Chapter 6: Corridors and Networks. Submissions primarily focused on the priority of major roading activities in the RLTP. However, many submitters also suggested a broad range of smaller scale measures to improve specific parts of the road network. There were also a range of submissions both on the importance of road freight and also its impacts on communities and the road network. Recommendations include: referring specific network requests to the appropriate road controlling authorities, a set of high level recommendations on the SH2 Waihi to Tauranga corridor, and changes to RLTP provisions to provide greater recognition of road freight movements.

Environmental Assessment of the Wider Te Puna and Waipapa Catchments, Western Bay of Plenty
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT OF THE WIDER TE PUNA AND WAIPAPA CATCHMENTS, WESTERN BAY OF PLENTY OCTOBER 2009 Report No. 2144 Prepared for: ENVIRONMENT BAY OF PLENTY P.O. BOX 364 WHAKATANE WILDLAND CONSULTANTS LTD, 558 MAUNGANUI ROAD, MT MAUNGANUI, TAURANGA 3116 Ph 07-574-2642; Fax 07-574-2643 HEAD OFFICE, 99 SALA STREET, P.O. BOX 7137, TE NGAE, ROTORUA 3042 Ph 07-343-9017, Fax 07-343-9018, email [email protected], www.wildlands.co.nz © 2009 Contract Report No. 2144 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Environment Bay of Plenty commissioned Wildland Consultants Ltd to prepare an environmental assessment for the Te Puna and Waipapa catchments. A number of care groups are active in these catchments and the catchment management issues are representative and typical of many catchments between the Tauranga Harbour and the Kaimai Range. The project area is strategically important as it is contiguous with and includes the ‘Te Puna Ecological Corridor’ previously identified by Environment Bay of Plenty, the catchments drain into a well-used part of Tauranga Harbour, Whakamarama (in the upper catchment) is a major entry point to the Kaimai Forest Park, there is already a very high level of general community engagement, tangata whenua support is evident, and Omokoroa has been identified as an urban growth node. The physical character of the catchment environments, history of land use, current land cover, and current land management are key determinants of the types and geographic spread of biodiversity values and land management issues. Indigenous vegetation and habitats in the upper catchments have high biodiversity values, the streams are of high value as habitats for indigenous fish (and as migratory pathways to the upper catchments), and the receiving environments in the harbour are of very high value. -

C. Rijkse and D. F. Guinto Preface Soil is a resource, a living, breathing entity that, if treated properly, will maintain itself. It’s our lifeline for survival. When it has finally been depleted, the human population will disappear. Project your imagination into the soil below you next time you go into the garden. Think with compassion of the life that exists there. Think, the drama, the harvesting, and the work that carries on ceaselessly. Think about the meaning of being a steward for the earth. Marjorie Harris, In the Garden (1995) For as long as I can remember I have been intrigued and fascinated by landscapes and soils of New Zealand, in particular of the Bay of Plenty where I spent a good deal of my career mapping soils. A landscape to me is a puzzle, a closed book, and to be able to open that book, to solve the puzzle by finding out what soils are in the landscape and what are the possibilities for good land use, is a joy we scientists call pedology – the science of soils.
