  • Investigating Small Town Shrinkage in the Clutha District of New Zealand and the Local Response
    Investigating small town shrinkage in the Clutha District of New Zealand and the local response Mathew Husband A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the degree of Master of Planning at the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand 1 November 2017 i Abstract Throughout history population centres, of any size, have always fluctuated in prosperity, population, and production activities. Current international trends, such as globalisation and urbanisation have created megacities with ever-expanding populations and economies. In contrast, the same trends have begun to cause shrinkage in some parts of the world. Some small towns can be particularly vulnerable to international trends which can destabilise their populations and/ or economies. Multiple examples of this are found in New Zealand such as in towns within the southern district of Clutha. Towns in the Clutha District have been impacted by the rural to urban migration trends seen across the world as well as globalisation which creates large-scale manufacturing as opposed to the relatively small manufacturing offered by small towns. Shrinkage can have negative impacts on small towns and their communities which prompts the need for a response to slow, stop or mitigate the issues related to shrinkage. This research aims to understand the impacts and responses to population loss and economic instability which has taken place in small towns within the Clutha District. The case study towns of Kaitangata and Lawrence were chosen as these towns highlight the varying geographic, social, and economic identities of the Clutha District. The aim of this thesis is to find out how councils, communities, and individuals are affected by economic and demographic change and how they are responding to the impacts of shrinkage.

    Issue 8 1 April 2021 Tēnā Koutou Katoa Kia ora e te whanau Key Dates Thank you to the parents and whanau who attended this week’s parent teacher interviews. I trust everyone enjoyed the opportunity of meeting with teachers and 2-6 April sharing their child’s learning progressions. As a college we respect and appreciate Easter Holiday – parents who work with us to promote academic attainment as a priority. Every College closed individual has their own goals and challenges, and we find it significantly beneficial when these are shared openly between student, home, and school. 7 April Mufti Day – Gold On Tuesday we hosted South Otago High School as part of our annual summer coin donation sports exchange. After a rousing Mihi Whakatau from our athletes and Year 10 students, players and actors split for their various events. All games were contested 8-11 April with healthy competitiveness and mutual respect. It was pleasing to see Taieri SISS Athletics College emerge as victors for the day by winning seven out of the nine matches. My thanks to the Sports Office for their excellent organisation and Miss Tuhega who 8 April Year 9-13 Cross coordinated a wonderful welcome for our visitors. Country Another recent sporting highlight was the performance of our Te Kainga cricket Otago team who were crowned regional champions after a closely fought final against Primary/Intermediat Balmacewen Intermediate on last Friday last. As well receiving winners medals the e Triathlon Champs team have also earned the right to play in the national finals at Lincoln in Taieri College Arts November.

These elevated nutrient concentrations are sufficient to cause prolific algae growth. No discernible trends were found in the catchment’s State of Environment monitoring data set (2006 to 2017), other than the concentration of total phosphorus declined significantly during this period. An accumulation of fine sediment within the catchment’s waterways appears to be behind the dramatic reductions in abundance and diversity of macroinvertebrate communities and fish populations, particularly in the mainstem of the Waiwera River. Appropriate mitigation measures need to be implemented to protect the river from further degradation and to aid recovery. Executive summary The Waiwera River is a medium-sized river, which rises in the Wisp Range and flows in a northerly direction to its confluence with the Clutha River/Mata-Au downstream of Clydevale.
