They considered how they might The block of land known as Paehinahina Mourea is located 12 km to the effectively make distributions to their beneficiaries and others. Many of the north east of Rotorua city. It lies on the southern shores of Lake Rotoiti grants paid to beneficiaries are for charitable purposes, such as education with its southern boundary reaching the Rotorua-Whakatane Highway and grants, grants to marae where they are registered with the Charities Com- a small part to the west is on the Rotorua-Tauranga Highway. The block is mission and grants for health related needs and churches. With significant 824 hectares with most of it covered in Pinus Radiata. revenues to come from the geothermal development not far away the trust would be able to increase the allocation to those areas. Some areas of the block are not planted in forest. These are the buffers, firebreaks, areas beneath power lines, geothermal (sulphur) areas, reserves Hence the trustees decided to set up a charitable trust. This would provide such as Papakiore and wahi tapu. The area is geothermally active and con- a robust structure and the trust would develop charitable distributions poli- tains many ngawha, waiariki and puna. cies that would include the criteria they would need to meet when consider- ing requests. As the land is on the shores of Lake Rotoiti there are a number of bays that are used by boaties as ideal picnic spots in the summer time. The trust has set up these areas around the lake as a Maori reservation. All wahi tapu have been recorded on maps used by foresters and other us- ers of the land as areas to be avoided when planning the use of the land. A small user of the land is Vodafone who has a mast on the land, the lease of which gives the trust a small annual income. ( 4 ) ( 37 ) The First Forty Years 1971 2011 The First Forty Years 1971 2011 1 The Land Iwi Futures 13 Map of the Ngati Pikiao Blocks In 2008 the trust entered into a research project under Dr Tanira Kingi of Massey University. Paehinahina Maori was one of four Maori land organi- sations studied in this research. The others were Ngati Hine, Waimarama Incorporation and Aohanga Trust. The purpose of the 3 year research project was to develop a Maori land and resource decision making framework that would assist the trust and other Maori land users in the future to define their values and aspirations, develop a land and resource evaluation model which would help them to assess alternative land use options and develop a decision making model to explore, evaluate and plan potential development pathways. The end result would be a comprehensive generic toolbox that eventually any land block could use to better govern and administer their own block or land resourc- es. The project was fully funded by FoRST. The programme concluded with a highly successful conference in Rotorua entitled “Whenua, Sustainable Futures with Maori Land”. Those present heard from a number of highly successful Maori organisations, most of which had land as their main asset. ( 36 ) ( 5 ) The First Forty Years 1971 2011 The First Forty Years 1971 2011 1 The Land Aerodrome Beacon Site Map showing Paehinahina Mourea Lands 12 In 1963 when Paehinahina Mourea was still under the Maori Development Scheme, the Crown acquired approximately one hectare of its land un- der the Public Works Act 1928. It was taken to use for a radio beacon for planes using the airport. The trust was paid $270 for this land and nothing for the right of way that was needed to allow access across the trust’s land. In 2009 the trust was informed that the Crown no longer required the site and offered the land back to the trust based on current market values which they assessed to be $140,000. The trustees were stunned at the amount that the Crown was asking for this hectare of land. For more than 40 years the trust had not been able to benefit from this piece of land which was in the middle of their forest. The areas surrounding it were all producing an income for the trust. With this in mind the trustees sought legal advice on their options. Te Ururoa Flavell, the MP for Waiariki was asked for help and he took the matter up in Parliament but without any success. The trus- tees were asking that the land be given back to them at no more than the price the Crown had paid for it plus an allowance for inflation. Through the trust’s solicitors they requested that the Crown apply their dis- cretion and agree to their request. That request was declined by the Crown agent (LINZ) who decided they were going to follow the letter of the law. Hence the trustees were taken by surprise when, without any warning the beacon site was advertised for sale to the public by tender. The trustees had no option then but to make a bid for the site. Deciding on the amount to of- fer was difficult as the trustees felt they could not allow this piece of land to fall into private ownership. They started with the valuer’s figure, added a small premium and then filed their tender hoping that they had done enough and fortunately it was. The return of the beacon site has cost the trust $161,333.

We believe, and sincerely hope, that our interest and intervention has helped to realise or at least enhance the expectations of our communities.

  • 1. Kerosene Creek 2. Wairua Stream
    1. Kerosene Creek First on our list of hot pools in Rotorua is the world-famous Kerosene Creek. 35 minutes from Rotorua and down a gravel road will take you to the thermal pool and waterfall at Kerosene Creek. The creek is popular not just for its geothermal activity but its beautiful surroundings. Location: 28km south of Rotorua. Take State Highway 5, then travel about 2km down Old Waiotapu Road. 2. Wairua Stream Wairua Stream is a bit harder to get to as you have to get a boat across Lake Tarawera, making it a local’s paradise. It is near Te Rata Bay and is one of the most picturesque hot pools near Rotorua. Location: About 25 minutes out of Rotorua down Spencer Road, Lake Tarawera. By boat, launch at Stoney Point and head straight across Lake Tarawera to the headlands on the right of Mt Tarawera. Go straight through these headlands to where the lake opens. Steer gently to starboard and make for the only beach in this area. 3. Wai-o-Tapu / The Bridge / The Secret Spot When it comes to Rotorua hot pools, it does not get more popular thank this one. Funnily enough, it is supposed to be a secret. Get the remnants from the Wai-O-Tapu geothermal attraction by bathing in the hot pool formed by the hot Wai-O-Tapu stream meeting the cool river. It’s a thermal pool, completely natural and completely free! Location: Just outside the Wai-O-Tapu geothermal park (under the bridge). 30km south of Rotorua just off State Highway 5.

    DECEMBER 1997 Kia Ora Greetings from the Lake With the end of another year fast approaching, it is time to provide an update on activities and occurences since our June Newsletter. As Local Government bodies continue to take on greater responsibilities the result is closer consultation with communities and individuals. This reflects a growing awareness of how co-ordinated efforts can develop and expand initiatives. Our pro-active participation in this arena, whilst creating extra workloads, means that we remain to the forefront in our aim to represent the interests and aspirations of all who live within the Lake Rotoiti catchment along with those who visit the area for recreation and pleasure. There is a growing need to ensure that an ecological balance is maintained in the face of ever increasing pressures on the lakes and their environs. It is essential that community organisations such as ourselves continue to seek appropriate decisions and solutions in meeting the demands of progress whilst promoting fundamental improvements to our own quality of life. Again, we extend thanks to our sponsors and advertisers along with the many of you who subscribed to the Association. Your ongoing support will enhance our ability to pursue the many issues of importance which affect our localities. We trust that you find this Newsletter of interest and wish each and everyone of you a very merry Christmas and prosperous New Year.
