  • Designations Proposed Waikato District Plan Stage 1 (Notified Version)
    Section E: Designations Proposed Waikato District Plan Stage 1 (Notified version) Page 2 of 38 Section E: Designations Introduction A designation is a provision in the plan that gives effect to a notice of requirement for a public work or project by a requiring authority. Requiring authorities include a Minister of the Crown, local authority or approved network operator. A public work or project could include a school, police station, road, park or a network utility operator that has been approved as a requiring authority under section 167 of the Resource Management Act. Designations are shown on the planning maps. The effect of a designation is that the requiring authority responsible for the designation may do anything that is in accordance with the designation, irrespective of the ordinary rules in the plan that might otherwise control the activity. Other people may not, without the prior written consent of the requiring authority, do anything in relation to the designated land that would prevent or hinder the project or work to which the designation relates. The zone rules regulate activities that are not covered by the designation. The mapped designations include those that have been rolled over from previous district plans either 'without modification' or 'with modification' under clause 4 of Schedule 1 of the Resource Management Act. Most of the works for those designations have been give effect to. Other designations are the result of notices of requirement lodged with Council after the last review of the district plan. Designations for works that have not been given effect to lapse after five years unless a longer period has been specifically identified.

  • Historic Overview – Te Kauwhata & District
    WDC District Plan Review – Built Heritage Assessment Historic Overview – Te Kauwhata & District West of the River Although the area to the west of the Waikato River and Te Kauwhata was once within Raglan County, historically the lack of adequate roads meant that the focus of local residents was towards the river where they could travel up or downstream, or go across the river to the townships of Rangiriri, Ohinewai and Te Kauwhata. The land form changes from flat wetlands dominated by Lakes Whangape, Rotongaro and Rotongaroiti closer to the Waikato River, to rolling and then steep hill country further west. A bridge across the Waikato River at Rangiriri gives access to the farming districts of Churchill, Opuatia, Glen Murray and Naike on the western side. The lakes Rotongaro and Whangape and their associated wetlands, as with Waikare and the vast Whangamarino lake to the east, are known for duck shooting and trout fishing. Figure 75: ‘Sport in New Zealand, No. 3. The opening of the shooting season at Lake Waikare, Waikato, sketched by our special artist.’ Auckland Weekly News 10 May 1901, p. 7. AWNS-19010510-7-2, Sir George Grey Special Collections, Auckland Libraries, Auckland. As Maori land was leased or sold, European settlements on the west site of the Waikato River were established. Several large landholdings in the Glen Murray-Churchill-Opuatia area had been taken up and farmed by Europeans by 1893.1 Principally, settlers were engaged in farming, but there were also several flaX mills, perhaps as many as eight including Gibbs’ Brothers mill and Walsh and Hogan’s, along the river near Churchill.

  • Mai Rangiriri Ki Pōkaewhenua: the Confiscation of Pōkaewhenua in the National Interest - 1961-1969
    MAI RANGIRIRI KI PŌKAEWHENUA: THE CONFISCATION OF PŌKAEWHENUA IN THE NATIONAL INTEREST - 1961-1969 BY DIONE LEE MARAMA PAYNE A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Victoria University of Wellington 2014 Photo 1: Te Ao Mārama Te Puru (nee Tamehana) – original owner in Pōkaewhenua. 2 Abstract The title of this thesis, Mai Rangiriri ki Pōkaewhenua, refers to the battle of Rangiriri as the point of reference that marks the first confiscation of Waikato land. It was at Rangiriri that Waikato Māori took up arms to defend their land against the invading army and in doing so, by Crown law, forfeited their customary ownership over their land through confiscation. It would be one hundred years later that another confiscation occured at Pōkaewhenua in the 1960s. The confiscation of Māori land is commonly discussed in New Zealand history literature as a practice of the nineteenth-century. However in this thesis I argue the practice of confiscation has endured into the 1960s through facilitated alienations of allegedly unproductive Māori land through lease and sale. This thesis examines the case study of Lot 512 in the Parish of Whangamarino to show how government agencies utilised some common practices of confiscation such as through legislation, economic expansion, settlement, conflict of interests, tenurial revolution and the concept of waste land to confiscate Pōkaewhenua through facilitated alienation in the national interest. Although the practice of alienation was widespread, the sale and lease of Māori land due to an alleged lack of productivity under Part XXV of the Māori Affairs Act 1953 was seldom investigated as part of Treaty settlements.

    PROPOSED WAIKATO DISTRICT PLAN NOTICE OF REQUIREMENT FOR NEW DESIGNATIONS UNDER SECTION 170 OF THE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ACT 1991 To: Waikato District Council Private Bag 544 Ngaruawahia 3742 Attention: Jane Macartney, Senior Policy Planner From: Chorus New Zealand Limited PO Box 632 Wellington 6140 1 Notice of Requirement Pursuant to Section 170 of the Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA), Chorus New Zealand Limited (Chorus) hereby gives notice that designations for 25 existing sites currently used for telecommunication and radiocommunication works, are required to be included in the Waikato Council District Plan. The designation purpose shall be Telecommunication and Radiocommunication and Ancillary Purposes. Confirmation of the relevant requiring authority, designation purpose, address and legal description, are included in the schedule in Table 1 below. 2 Reasons for the Requirement Chorus is an approved requiring authority under section 167 of the Resource Management Act 1991 (the Act) for their network utility operations. Designation as a mechanism allows Chorus to carry out works nationally in a consistent manner on their strategic sites such as exchanges and radio/microwave sites. It also provides a degree of certainty as to the nature of works Chorus can carry out on any particular site, and allows Chorus to undertake wider network planning with a higher degree of ongoing certainty. The designated purpose of “Telecommunication and Radiocommunication and Ancillary Purposes” caters for the full range of modern telecommunications operations, including wireless services. There are eight existing Chorus designations in Waikato District Plan – Franklin Section. These designations are being rolled over by Chorus under a separate process. When undertaking the review of existing designated sites in Waikato District, Chorus identified that none of its 24 strategic sites are designated in the Waikato District Plan – Waikato Section, along with one further site in the Franklin Section at Tuakau.
