Te Horo Local Outcomes (2012) Kāpiti Coast Choosing Futures Community Outcomes Te Horo Local Outcomes Te Horo is a peaceful rural and coastal community with a unique environment stretching from the Tararua Ranges to the sea. Te Horo has traditionally served as a ‘food basket’ for harvesting and gathering from sea, river, streams, land and bush, which must be preserved for future generations. 1 Contents Page Introduction ..................................................................................................................................................... 3 Background........................................................................................................................................................ 4 Districtwide Outcome 1: There are healthy natural systems which people can enjoy ..................................... 7 Districtwide Outcome 2: Local character is retained within a cohesive District.............................................. 10 Districtwide Outcome 3: The Nature and rate of population growth is appropriate to community goals ....... 12 Districtwide Outcome 4: The community makes wise use of local resources................................................ 13 Districtwide Outcome: 5 There is increased choice to work locally................................................................ 15 Districtwide Outcome 6: The District is a place that works for young people................................................. 16 Districtwide Outcome 7: The District has a strong, healthy, safe and involved community........................... 17 2 Introduction The Kāpiti Coast: Choosing Future-Community Outcomes process was initiated between 2003-04 and reviewed in 2008-09, aiming to represent community aspirations for the District. Nine other Local Outcomes Statements, similar to this Te Horo one, have been developed by and for the various communities within the District. The Kāpiti Choosing Futures: – Community Outcomes provides the umbrella document which covers environment, growth management, protection of character, access, efficient use of resources, increasing local employment choices, creating a place that works for young people, and general enjoyment of what the Kāpiti Coast has to offer. This Te Horo Local Outcomes statement documents the specific issues for Te Horo that arise under the broader District outcomes. Community Outcomes acknowledge the particular character of the Te Horo community and the vision it has and what the predominant themes and issues are. Community Outcomes researches and records the focus for Te Horo providing future guidance for what is important to the people who live and work there. 3 Background Settlement History Te Horo Ngāti Raukawa ki te Tonga The elements that have shaped the basic form of settlement of the Peka Peka Ngāti Raukawa (Kukutauaki north) Te Horo area are: Peka Peka Te Ati Awa ki Whakarongotai (Kukutauaki natural features, for example the Ōtaki and Waikanae Rivers south) and Mangaone Stream, their estuaries and significance as a Katihiku Marae in Te Horo, Tama Te Hura, was established in its food source; current location in 1913.

Stroll the tracks and see how many birds you can identify! Description, values & signif icance At Waikanae Estuary freshwater from the Tararua Ranges meets the sea. This mixing of the waters and the ever-shifting river mouth creates an environment sustaining rich plant and animal communities. The estuary provides an important habitat for birds, aquatic plants and is an important breeding ground and nursery for both fresh water and marine fish species. Waikanae Estuary is a nationally significant reserve and restoration work by a dedicated care group continually improves it. Accessibility/How to get there/particular time of year to visit Waikanae Estuary is located between Paraparaumu and Waikanae on the Kāpiti coast north of Wellington. The main entry points into the Waikanae Estuary Scientific Reserve are on Manly St North, Paraparaumu Beach. One track leads out onto the seaward side of the lagoon and the other follows the inland side of the estuary. Whitebait fishing is permitted in the reserve by a gazette notice, from 15August and 30 November (inclusive). Threatened species/species of interest The mosaic of tidal sand flats, sand dunes, salt marshes and lakelets provide a home for vulnerable plants such as two regionally rare carex species and carpets of remuremu (Selliera radicans) growing in the firm mud of the estuary.

  • 2018: New Zealand's Equal-2Nd Warmest Year on Record
    New Zealand Climate Summary: 2018 Issued: 8 January 2019 2018: New Zealand’s equal-2nd warmest year on record Temperature Annual temperatures were above average (+0.51°C to +1.20°C above the annual average) across the majority of New Zealand, including much of the North Island as well as the western and southern South Island. A small strip of well above average (>1.20°C from average) temperatures were observed in southern Manawatu-Whanganui. Elsewhere, near average (within -0.50°C to +0.50°C of average) temperatures occurred in parts of southern Canterbury, Otago, small parts of Auckland and the Far North. 2018 was the equal 2nd-warmest year on record for New Zealand, based on NIWA’s seven- station series which began in 1909. Rainfall Yearly rainfall in 2018 was above normal (120-149% of the annual normal) across much of the eastern and upper South Island, as well as parts of Wellington, Wairarapa, Bay of Plenty, northern Waikato, and Auckland. Well above normal rainfall (>149% of normal) was observed in portions of southern Canterbury. Rainfall was near normal (80-119% of normal) for the remainder of New Zealand. Soil moisture 2018 began with below or well below normal soil moisture nearly nationwide, but soil moisture in the North Island and upper South Island gradually increased during January. Widespread heavy rainfall from ex-tropical cyclones Fehi and Gita during February resulted in well above normal soil moisture across most of New Zealand. Near to above normal soil moisture persisted through autumn, with near normal soil moisture widespread during the winter.

    APPENDIX 3 Operative Kāpiti Coast District Plan Objectives and Policies Proposed Kāpiti Coast District Plan Objectives and Policies S149(G)3 Key Issues Report – Kāpiti Coast District Council C.1: RESIDENTIAL ZONE C.1 RESIDENTIAL ZONE Over 90% of the district's population live on less than 4% of the land. This land comprises the residential environment. To accommodate this population there has been considerable investment made in buildings, services (water, gas, wastewater disposal) roading and amenity facilities (shops and schools). This represents a significant physical resource which needs to be managed to enable people and communities to meet their needs and to minimise any adverse effects of activities on both the natural and physical environment. The management of this resource can be achieved within the District Plan through controls in the design of subdivision, use and development. The objectives and policies set out below in C.1.1 are intended to address the significant resource management issues identified in B.2. The related subdivision and development issues in B.8 are addressed in C.7. C.1.1 Objectives & Policies OBJECTIVE 1.0 - GENERAL ENSURE THAT THE LOW DENSITY, QUIET CHARACTER OF THE DISTRICT’S RESIDENTIAL ENVIRONMENTS IS MAINTAINED AND THAT ADVERSE EFFECTS ON THE AMENITY VALUES THAT CONSTITUTE THIS CHARACTER AND MAKE THE RESIDENTIAL ENVIRONMENTS SAFE, PLEASANT AND HEALTHY PLACES FOR RESIDENTS ARE AVOIDED, REMEDIED OR MITIGATED. The residential environments within the Kapiti Coast District generally have a low density character, typified by low building heights and density and a high proportion of public and private open space.

  • EPA Board of Enquiry Hon Sir John Hanley David Bunting, Environment
    EPA Board of Enquiry Hon Sir John Hanley David Bunting, Environment Commissioner Glenice Paine Mark Appledoorn Intro My name is Ruben Blok and I live at 79 Belvedere Ave, Waikanae. I am a Business Intelligence consultant with a private local firm and I create analytic reporting solutions for major private and public sector organisations throughout the Australasia. I am usually not too worried about government decisions but given my field of expertise and what I have witnessed with this project something very wrong is happening here and the information does simply not add up. I oppose the NZTA Makays to Peka Peka proposal and would like to tell you my experience and explain my findings. Lead Up We moved from Auckland to Kapiti (originally to Raumati South) in 2007 to start a family and fell in love with the community and surroundings. The combination of bush, beach, and lifestyle was an easy decision. We heard about KCDCs initial proposal to create a new alternate road and bridge to Waikanae I quite liked the idea. It seems a little crazy that you can almost walk to Waikanae from Paraparaumu Beach faster than you can drive (we tested it the other day). A year or two later we received the notification from NZTA that as part of the Roads of National Significance project they were planning to upgrade the existing SH1 to future proof the national grid. We again quite optimistic when we saw the proposals (WO and EO only) and chose option EO, upgrade the existing SH1, as it had minimal impact on the existing community leaving SH1 as close to its original location as possible.

Not suitable for youngsters, the nervous aged, those who suffer from vertigo or dislike steps. Great plant life and tremendous views whilst the return can be sheer bliss by catching the train back from Pukerau Bay to Paekakariki – remember your Gold Card! Detail: From the station parking area (WP01) walk south parallel to the rail line and turn right plus cross the road that crosses the level crossing. Pass a few white concrete seats then left at the junction (WP02). Continue down this street to the SW until it meets SH1 (WP03) to turn sharply back on itself and head NE up SH1. Head down the steep steps (WP04) to get under and away from the chaos of SH1 and on to a well formed track bordered by many native plants and wild flowers.
