What is this document about?

This discussion document is the start of a conversation about what we, as a community, want the Far North to look like in the future. Your comments about the ideas in this discussion document will be used to help create the blueprint for the district — a plan called Far North 2100, that will be the subject of public consultation in mid-2020. Far North 2100 will be a long-term (80+ years), high–level and wide-ranging, spatial plan for what the community wants the district to become by the year 2100. Far North 2100 will be a guide and single point of reference for future planning and decision-making . Detailed plans about things such as land use and infrastructure will follow the direction set in Far North 2100. FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI SECTION 02 PAGE 8

What is a spatial plan?

A spatial plan brings together solutions to address multiple challenges and goals at the same time, in one document, for a specific location. A spatial plan can be done for a range of places from a whole country to a single town. A spatial plan is not just about land use. Far North 2100 will deal with economic, social, environmental, physical and cultural issues and goals for the whole of the Far North. It will also deal with things that are not the functions or responsibilities of the Far North District Council. So, in this discussion document, the word “we” does not refer to the Far North District Council, it refers to everyone who lives or works in the Far North. While the Council is leading the work to create Far North 2100, there will be a range of agencies responsible for doing the things required to achieve the future the district wants.

What is in this document?

This discussion document deals with possible content for the first two parts of Far North 2100 — the roles and the transformational opportunities. It is important to develop this content first because it will set the direction and scope of Far North 2100. After each section there is a series of questions that we welcome your feedback on. In section 04 of this document (page 39), there is information on how you can give your feedback.

The content of this discussion document is based on workshops held by the Council, including one that was attended by representatives of some Far North iwi and hapū. However, the content is not endorsed or approved by the Far North District Council elected members or any of the iwi and hapū representatives. The content consists primarily of ideas to get the conversation started in the communities of the Far North about what should be included in Far North 2100. A draft of Far North 2100 will be consulted on in mid-2020. PAGE 9 SECTION 02 FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI 02 Role of the Far North in 2100 FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI SECTION 02 PAGE 10 P A G E 11 SECTION 02 FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI What is the Far North’s role? The role consists of the things:

• we do well on a day-to-day basis, or do better than any other place in the country

• that are unique to the Far North, things that don’t exist anywhere else or only happen here.

The role explains the relationship between people and place. The Far North is a unique place, with its own distinctive history, geography and ecosystem. People have made it their home for centuries. Their activities and interactions have shaped, altered and defined the entire district.

The first part of Far North 2100 will describe the role the Far North has, for:

• the people who live or work here • the Northland Tai Tokerau region • New Zealand Aotearoa.

Because Far North 2100 is future-focussed the Far North’s future role can be something different from what it is today. Or it could be a role that exists now, but is done differently or given more attention in the future. And the role of the future Far North can be more than just one thing. FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI SECTION 02 PA G E 12

The following pages contain three ideas for the future role of the Far North in 2100 (and beyond). The ideas are written as if they are existing roles, as if the person describing them is living in the year 2100. PAGE 13 SECTION 02 FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI

Role 1 Recognised kaitiaki (guardian) of the birthplace of New Zealand Aotearoa and the “Tail of the Fish” (guiding the direction of the fish)

Role 2 National and global leaders of sustainable production — aquaculture (seafood and fish), orticultureh (fruit and vegetables), agriculture (animals and grains), viticulture (grapes for wine) and forestry for harvesting and carbon sink

In the year 2100 this role means we are on production — more diverse types of food self-sufficient in our food supply — no one are grown in the Far North than in other parts goes hungry in the Far North because we all of the country, but some land is no longer able have access to healthy, affordable food.

Comparative advantage

Comparative advantage is not judged strictly on monetary returns. The comparative advantage of the Far North is based on a combination of natural features, unique location, and industries that offer superior financial performance or experiences as compared to other parts of the country.

What is GDP?

GDP stands for “gross domestic product”. GDP measures the value added from the production of goods and services after deducting the cost of producing the goods and services. GDP is the most commonly used measure for the size of an economy. GDP is all the money that people and firms earn in a year — in simple terms it is the salary or wages of the Far North.

Some things we would also be doing, common to all three Roles of the Far North:

• Our food production and tourism industries are serviced by towns and settlements where workers live and play and supporting businesses are located

• Water storage and distribution infrastructure is resilient and water use is fairly shared between productive industries and human consumption. Water sources are well managed and protected from contamination

• Electricity demand is 100% supplied from generation within the district (geothermal, wind, solar, tidal)

• People, places and businesses are connected by a good quality transport network on sea, road, rail and air

Questions:

Q1 How do you want the Far North to look in the future, for yourself, for your children (tamariki), for your grandchildren (mokopuna)?

Q2 What is special about the Far North? What are the things we have here or do here that you think we need to treat as the most important?

Q3 Do you agree or disagree with the ideas for the role of the Far North. If you disagree, what do you think a possible role should be?

In 2015 Far North communities discussed and agreed on a vision and a set of values and expectations as follows: FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI SECTION 03 PAGE 24

The second part of Far North 2100 will give practical effect to the shared vision, values and expectations. Far North 2100 will say how we are going to get from where we are now to where we want to be in 2100. The Far North is facing unique challenges at the moment and we cannot address them all at the same time, or in a short time. In the plan we will identify some transformational opportunities — the first steps towards achieving the shared vision, values and expectations. On the following pages are three ideas for those transformational opportunities. FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI SECTION 03 PAGE 26

PAGE 27 SECTION 03 FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI

Opportunity 1 The principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi are enacted Under this opportunity, the principles of Te Tiriti are given practical effect as the Far North becomes a model of a bi-cultural and multi-cultural way of life.

Q6 What projects or plans do you know about that could contribute to this transformational opportunity? FAR NORTH 2100 —MAPPING OUR FUTURE-TE WHAKAPAERANGI SECTION 03 PAGE 28

Principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi

The differences in the Māori and English texts of Te Tiriti o Waitangi have led to different understandings of the meaning of Te Tiriti. These differences, coupled with the need to apply Te Tiriti in contemporary circumstances, led Parliament to refer to the “principles of the Treaty of Waitangi” in legislation, rather than to the texts. See for example, section 4 of the Local Government Act 2002. In summary, the principles are:

• Partnership – The duty imposed on • Active protection – The Crown’s both parties to act reasonably, obligation to take positive steps to honourably, and in good faith ensure that Māori interests are protected • Redress – Past wrongs give rise to a right of redress

Opportunity 2 Being communities of care This opportunity means we ensure the places where we live have the facilities, services and resources for us to have healthy and affordable lifestyles and we are connected (physically, socially, spiritually, or virtually) to each other, our work and our environment.

The Far North is different from most districts in New “communities of care”. As a first step in meeting that Zealand because it does not have one large town or city challenge we need a way of describing the role, where most people live. We therefore have a challenge function and purpose of our existing towns and to decide how the towns and areas we live in can best residential areas. be managed or developed to meet our needs — to be

By using agreed descriptions of the role, function and purpose of our towns and residential areas, we can then make plans to develop the towns to ensure they are meeting their role, function or purpose. For example, we could:

• Ensure residential, commercial and industrial • Make plans for moving or protecting development is focussed on non-productive residential areas, infrastructure (including areas of land. Increased density will provide a transport networks), community assets strong sense of community, permanence and (such as cemeteries and urupā) and amenities security, and encourage efficient use of (such as parks) that are vulnerable to flooding infrastructure (see map on opposite page) or coastal erosion — that is, the impacts of climate change (see map on opposite page)

• Manage the provision of services to match changing demographics (such as ageing population) and movement of people between towns and other areas, including removing services where the population has declined This opportunity will give practical effect to:

• Whānau (A great place for our families to flourish)

• Tāngata whai ora (Happy, healthy, safe and purposeful people)

• He waka hourua (Fit for purpose infrastructure underpinning success)

Opportunity 3 Congruent and enabling policies

We would develop congruent and enabling policies to facilitate our overall objectives of:

• Secure water sources and solutions • Literacy, skills and employment

• Homes for all • Adaptation and appropriate responses to climate change

• Holistic health services • Rich biodiversity and care for the whenua (land)

This opportunity means that funders and service (or A plan for “Literacy, skills and employment” could be product) providers would agree on plans and work to providing better internet services for people to access achieve the objectives listed above. For example, a plan online learning. Some of the objectives listed will be for “Homes for all” could be to increase the supply of needed to meet a particular role for the Far North. For rental housing provided by institutional investors, or to example, secure water sources are needed for sustainable build papakāinga (homes on communal Māori land). production — Role 2 (see map on opposite page).
