It is We demonstrate how New Zealand could now a budget that drives achievement through move to a top rate of income tax of 24% and a freedom, choice and responsibility. company tax rate of 24%.

    8 July 2021 Anderson & Co Resource Management PO Box 5933 Dunedin 9058 By email: [email protected] Dear Conrad AFFECTED PARTY APPROVAL UNDER THE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT ACT 1991: MANIOTOTO HOSPTIAL (FORMER), 51 TYRONE STREET, RANFURLY 1. Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga is an autonomous Crown Entity with statutory responsibility under the Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Act 2014 (HNZPTA) for the identification, protection, preservation, and conservation of New Zealand’s historical and cultural heritage. 2. Heritage New Zealand received an application for resource consent dated 4 August 2020, applied for by Conrad Anderson of Anderson & Co Resource Management on behalf of Maniototo Health Services Ltd, for the proposed demolition of the former Maniototo Hospital at 51 Tyrone Street, Ranfurly. The application did not include an Assessment of Environmental Effects (AEE) and processing was put on hold until additional information was supplied. 3. An updated application including an AEE was provided on 22 September 2020. The AEE lacked detail required under the Central Otago District Plan to assess the potential adverse effects of the proposed demolition and Heritage New Zealand advised it was unable to provide written approval at this time. An updated application was provided on 26 November 2020 which included further detail regarding the heritage significance, structural integrity and potential for adaptive reuse of the hospital. Heritage New Zealand considered that the adverse effects on heritage values would be more than minor and advised the applicant that written approval unable to be provided.

  • Heritage-New-Zealand-Northland-Adp-2016.Pdf
    Accidental Discovery Protocol (ADP) From Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Prior to the commencement of any works, a copy of this ADP should be made available to all contractors working on site. Under the Heritage New Zealand Pouhere Taonga Act 2014 an archaeological site is defined as a place associated with pre-1900 human activity, where there may be evidence relating to the history of New Zealand. Over 12,000 archaeological sites have been recorded in Northland, and more are identified on a regular basis. For Maori sites (the most common site types in Northland), the largest and most obvious site types are pa, pits and terraces. However, evidence may be of a smaller nature, in the form of bones, shells, charcoal, burnt stone etc; a midden is an archaeological rubbish tip, in which many of these items can be found consolidated together. Evidence of disturbance of a midden can be a scattering of shell across a wide area; this can be confusing if it is near a beach. Pieces of obsidian or chert, together with stone tools, may also be recovered. In later sites of European origin artefacts such as bottle glass, iron/metal, crockery etc. may be found, or evidence of old foundations, wells, drains or similar structures. Burials/koiwi tangata may be found from any period. Some examples: Shell midden Historic bottle Animal bone Archaeological stratigraphy A flight of pits in forest Shell midden uncovered in road scraping In the event of an “accidental discovery” of archaeological material the following steps must be taken: 1. All work on the site will cease immediately.

  • There's Too Much at Stake for Nzers to Stop Fighting for Marriage
    There’s too much at stake for NZers to stop fighting for Marriage. When politicians voted to redefine an age-old institution, it wasn’t just marriage they put at risk. They undermined New Zealand, a society built on the cornerstone of marriage and family stability. By ignoring the voice of the people (again), they also undermined democracy, another cornerstone for our country. But it’s not over. Those of us who believe in the sanctity of marriage between one man and one woman can still turn things around come election time. We need to remember how the politicians voted: 44 MPs who stood against 77 MPs responsible for redefining marriage redefining marriage NATIONAL: Amy Adams, Chris Auchinvole, Maggie Barry, David Bennett (changed from 2nd reading), Paula Bennett, Jackie Blue, Cam Calder, David Carter, Judith Say THANK YOU to the politicians who voted Collins, Jacqui Dean, Craig Foss, Aaron Gilmore (new MP), Paul Goldsmith, Jo to protect marriage.
