Thomson Survey Limited Proposed Subdivision Sept-2019 ______ Thomson Survey Limited Proposed subdivision Sept-2019 __________________________________________________________________________________________ Robert & Kathy Jones Far North District Plan PROPOSED SUBDIVISION IN TWO STEPS 726 Mangakaretu Road PLANNING REPORT AND ASSESSMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS Thomson Survey Ltd Kerikeri 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Proposal The applicants propose to carry out a two step subdivision on their land at 726 Mangakaretu Road. The first Step will see four lots of minimum area 2ha, plus a large balance lot. The second Step will then see the creation of a 4ha lot around an existing dwelling, from the large balance created in the first Step. Refer to Appendix 1 for copies of the Scheme Plans. Refer to Appendix 2 for a copy of the Locality Plan. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Page | 1 Planners Report and Assessment of Environmental Effects Jones Job # 9504 Mangakaretu Road Thomson Survey Limited Proposed subdivision Sept-2019 __________________________________________________________________________________________ 1.2 Scope of this Report This assessment and report accompanies the Resource Consent Application and is provided in accordance with Section 88 and Schedule 4 of the Resource Management Act 1991. The application seeks consent under the District Plan for a two step subdivision activity. The first Step is a restricted discretionary activity, and once s224c is issued for that step, the second step subdivision will be a discretionary subdivision activity. This application is therefore written with a view to covering matters commensurate with both a restricted discretionary and full discretionary activity application. The application includes: A description of the proposal; A description of the site and its environs; An assessment of environmental effects; An assessment of the proposal against relevant objectives and policies of the Far North District Plan; An assessment of the proposal against relevant provisions of Part 2 of the Act and other National and Regional Standards, Policies and Plans; Record of consultation. Supporting reports. The name and address of the owner of the property is contained in the Form 9 Application form. 2.0 PROPERTY DETAILS Location: 726 Mangakaretu Road Legal description: Section 50, Blk XVI Kaeo SD CT: NA82C/794, dated December 1991, 83.726ha in area (copy attached in Appendix 3). Zoning: Rural production Resource Features: Nil Other Features: Nil 3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION 3.1 Physical characteristics. The site is located on Mangakaretu Road, 20m legal metal surface road, approximately 1.4km from that road’s western intersection with Puketotara Road (also 20m legal metal surface road). ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Page | 2 Planners Report and Assessment of Environmental Effects Jones Job # 9504 Mangakaretu Road Thomson Survey Limited Proposed subdivision Sept-2019 __________________________________________________________________________________________ The site is a dairy farm, 84ha in area, generally flat in topography, with raised areas in the locality of proposed Lots 2 and 3, and to the rear (northern most) part of the property. There is a man made pond in the vicinity of the dwelling to be within proposed Lot 1, and other wetland/pond features around the property, all fenced off from stock. These are generally along the alignment of a minor watercourse running north/south through the large balance lot. View looking northeast from proposed Lot 2 towards property’s northeastern boundary (distant tree line just right of centre picture). Mangakaretu Rd showing at right of picture. Existing built environment consists of dwellings at 726 Mangakaretu Road, another on proposed Lot 1 and cowshed and other farm buildings in between, within the balance lot. There is a network of fenced races throughout. The property is zoned Rural Production and has no resource features as shown in the Far North District Plan. It is within an area shown on Far North maps as potentially kiwi present and 3km distant from the nearest high density kiwi area at Puketi. The property is not shown as having any Outstanding Landscape or Natural Character values on the Regional Policy Statement for Northland’s maps, and not shown as having any areas prone to either 1 in 10 or 1 in 100 flood events on the NRC’s on-line Hazard Maps. Neither is the site identified as erosion prone on any Regional Council maps. The soils across the property are identified as being Class IV LUC. Access to the back of the property, and proposed Lot 4, is via an existing legal road, not maintained by Council. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Page | 3 Planners Report and Assessment of Environmental Effects Jones Job # 9504 Mangakaretu Road Thomson Survey Limited Proposed subdivision Sept-2019 __________________________________________________________________________________________ 3.2 Legal Interests The property is subject to Part IV A of the Conservation Act 1987, a hangover from historic ownership by State Owned Enterprise, Land Corp. This is no longer relevant and would have applied to an original much larger holding which may have bounded river or stream. The application property does not. 3.3 Consent History A search of the property file shows three building consents relevant to the property: BC-2004-740-0, issued in October 2003 for 36m2 extensions to an existing dwelling; BC-2010-898-0, issued in March 2019 for foundations for relocated dwelling plus decks, logfire and effluent disposal system (this is the dwelling on proposed Lot 1); and BC-2017-194-0, issued in September 2016 to construct a new deck and portico roof – also for the dwelling on proposed Lot 1. I understand there is a building consent about to be lodged, if it hasn’t already been lodged, for a dwelling on the land within proposed Lot 4. The property has previously had subdivision consent, RC 2000734, issued in May 2000, however this was not given effect to. This subdivision consent was for one additional lifestyle lot generally in the location of our proposed Lot 4. A copy of RC 2000734 is attached in Appendix 4. 4.0 THE PROPOSAL IN DETAIL The applicant is seeking to carry out a two step subdivision. The first step creates the following: Lot 1 2.43ha contains an existing dwelling and is proposed to be accessed via a newly formed entrance and ROW directly off Mangakaretu Road – refer Scheme Plan, and associated easement schedule. Lot 2 2.0ha vacant land with direct frontage to Mangakaretu Road. Lot 3 2.0ha vacant land with direct frontage to Mangakaretu Road. Lot 4 2.0ha vacant but for which a building consent is pending, to be accessed via an existing legal road. Lot 100 75.3ha balance property with milking shed and existing dwelling, currently with access via two separate entrances off Mangakaretu Road, as well as use of the existing legal road (not maintained by Council). ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Page | 4 Planners Report and Assessment of Environmental Effects Jones Job # 9504 Mangakaretu Road Thomson Survey Limited Proposed subdivision Sept-2019 __________________________________________________________________________________________ Following on from the first step, the proposal involves a second step that creates the following: Lot 5 4.0ha containing the existing dwelling with existing access off Mangakaretu Road. Lot 100 71.3ha balance farm 5.0 ACTIVITY STATUS 5.1 Zoning The property is zoned Rural production. No Resource features apply. 5.2 Far North District Plan Rules The subdivision standards applying in the zone are contained in Table 13.7.2.1 as shown below.

Introduction In a recent series of articles, edited by Bernard Spolsky (1986), a number of contributors with Third World field experience have noted the way in which the use of a former colonial language as a substitute for a mother tongue in education has ‘reproduced inequality’, ‘prevented the attainment of high levels of bi-lingualism’, ‘stunted cognitive growth … and creativity in children’ and resulted in ‘the atrophy of indigenous cultures’.

    Sustainable Development Plan for the Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin OCTOBER 2005 ADOPTED JUNE 2007 Prepared by: The Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin Plan Working Group Far North District Council Sustainable Development Plan for the Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin OCTOBER 2005 ADOPTED JUNE 2007 Prepared by: The Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin Plan Working Group Sustainable Development Plan for the Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin i PREFACE This plan for sustainable development of public lands within the Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin has been prepared by a working group of staff from the land administering government agencies operating within the Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin in consultation with tangata whenua and representatives of local interest groups. Their work has been guided by a steering committee and regular meetings of community focus groups. The plan describes the heritage values within the Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin and a long term vision for its sustainable development. A major part of this plan outlines the principles to be followed to ensure developments are sustainable. Governance and implementation priorities are also described. The plan focuses on the early contact period, 1770-1850, because this is the nationally and internationally recognised historic period for the Basin. The plan acknowledges that history is a continuum; therefore other history can be accorded attention. An independent concept development study has confirmed the need for a visitor centre to ensure future sustainability of the Kororipo-Kerikeri Basin. Concept development has been informed by historical research, visitor surveys, technical advice and input from the public consultation process, and is included as part of the implementation section of this plan. The plan acknowledges the following; • the generous gift of Kemp House (now the Mission House) to the nation by the Kemp family; • the actions of the Society of the Preservation of the Kerikeri Stone Store area (SPOKSSA) in saving the pa and kainga from subdivision; • the gifting of land in the Basin by the Mason and Parmiter families; • the ongoing exercise of kaitiakitanga.
