    Lake County Agricultural & Pastoral Society

    Lake County Agricultural & Pastoral Society From the President Welcome to the 102nd Lake Hayes A&P Show! Our small committee of volunteers have been working hard to create this great family day out. You are invited to come and enjoy the trade displays and stalls, family entertainment and competitions. Catching up with all those locals who have been attending the show for years, or meeting those who are attending for the first time. The Lake Hayes A & P Show is not big compared to other Shows, our grounds are sandwiched between a lake and a state highway, we have the most picturesque site in the country. We aim to provide locals and visitors with a traditional rural day out with a modern and creative flair. In recent years, we have certainly maintained our popularity; trade space is booked in, up to one year in advance, and there’s a waiting list. We make a conscious decision to cater for the traditional A&P enthusiast, offering equestrian competitions, sheep and wool classes, shearing competitions and displays, home industry sections, but in recent years have moulded our schedule to incorporate events for townsfolk and rural lifestyle block families. This year we have added in a section for Miniature Horses – one that is sure to be a crowd pleaser, plus the Clydesdales are back. So, there actually is ‘something for everyone’ at the Lake Hayes A & P Show! A huge thank you goes out to our loyal members and sponsors, who provide the financial backing so that we can run this event year and after year, and thank you also to the competitors (many of whom travel from afar), trade site vendors, spectators and volunteers.

This supplementary memorandum is filed on behalf of the Queenstown Lakes District Council (Council) to respond to a question from the Hearing Panel (Panel) asked during Hearing Stream 10. 2. The Panel asked the Council to confirm where Arrowtown and other towns sit in relation to the definition of 'urban environment' in the National Policy Statement on Urban Development Capacity 2016 (NPSUDC or NPS). Specifically, the Panel asked whether those towns form part of the Queenstown or Wanaka 'urban environments'. This question relates to paragraphs 23 and 24 of the Council's Memorandum of Counsel dated 3 March 2017 (March Memorandum), where it is stated that although there is some uncertainty as to what parts of the District are an 'urban environment' in their own right, it is accepted that Queenstown itself is a 'high growth urban area' and therefore the NPS applies to the District as a whole. The March Memorandum then states that the NPS provisions apply in tiers and differentiates between the parts of the NPS that refer to urban environments, urban environments expected to experience growth, and medium and high- growth urban areas.

    Tomasi SHA, Arthurs Point Transport Assessment

    19 October 2017 Bullendale Developments Limited C/- Momentum Projects By email Attention: Shane Fairmaid Dear Shane, Tomasi SHA, Arthurs Point Transport Assessment The purpose of this letter is to provide a high level transport assessment for a proposed Tomasi Special Housing Area (SHA) to be created at Arthurs Point, Queenstown. The assessment will consider if there is additional capacity within the existing transport infrastructure to accommodate the proposed development. 1 Background The proposed SHA, Tomasi, is an extension of Bullendale at 157 Arthurs Point Road. The Tomasi development is to be located within Lot 2 DP12913 and will be accessed through the Bullendale Subdivision which is a SHA created under consent approval SH160143. Bullendale is not fully constructed although design drawings have been approved for the access from Arthurs Point Road. This high level transport assessment utilises the detailed design for Bullendale as well as traffic modelling and analysis undertaken during the consent stage. 2 Existing Transport Network For the purposes of this assessment it is assumed that the existing transport network will include infrastructure which has been consented and is being constructed within the Bullendale subdivision, refer SH160143. Bullendale will establish a new residential access road, Bullendale Drive, which will be formed as a Suburban Local Road1. This road will have a 5.5m movement lane with separate footpaths and indented on-street parking. This road type can serve up to 200 residential dwellings. Bullendale Drive is consented to serve 88 residential dwellings within at Bullendale. Bullendale Drive is to be accessed from Arthurs Point Road. This intersection has been consented and the detailed design has engineering approval.

    Lessons Learnt Preparing a 30 Year Infrastructure Strategy for the Queenstown-Lakes District

    A CASE STUDY: LESSONS LEARNT PREPARING A 30 YEAR INFRASTRUCTURE STRATEGY FOR THE QUEENSTOWN-LAKES DISTRICT Lead Author: Polly Lambert Policy, Standards & Assets Planner, Queenstown Lakes District Council Queenstown Co-Author: Dr Deborah Lind Infrastructure Advisor, Rationale Ltd Arrowtown Abstract The Local Government Act 2002 Amendment Act 2014 became law on 8 August 2014, requiring councils to prepare an infrastructure strategy for at least a 30 year period, and to incorporate this into their long-term plans from 2015. The Queenstown Lakes District is a recognised tourism destination that supports economic growth across the southern part of the South Island of New Zealand and contributes significantly to the ‘NZ Inc.’ global brand. As such, the district is attractive to local and international investment in housing, services and visitor related activities. The current resident population of 29,000 supports the infrastructure services for a peak day population of 100,000 people. Combined with the fact that the District is one of the highest future growth areas in the country, this placed increased pressure on the three waters and transport services in terms of capacity and service delivery. This paper will share the approach, challenges and outcomes of preparing a 30 year infrastructure strategy for the Queenstown Lakes District and the lessons learnt to inform, and improve on, future infrastructure planning. Key Words (wiki’s) 30 Year Infrastructure Strategy, LGA Section 101, Asset Management, Forward Planning, Long Term Plan, Evidence Based Decision Making adventure, exploration, creativity or relaxation.

    A Directory of Wetlands in New Zealand OTAGO CONSERVANCY Sutton Salt Lake (67) Location: 45o34'S, 170o05'E. 2.7 km from Sutton and 8 km from Middlemarch, Straith-Tari area, Otago Region, South Island. Area: 3.7 ha. Altitude: 250 m. Overview: Sutton Salt Lake is a valuable example of an inland or athalassic saline lake, with a considerable variety of saline habitats around its margin and in adjacent slightly saline boggy depressions. The lake is situated in one of the few areas in New Zealand where conditions favour saline lakes (i.e. where precipitation is lower than evaporation). An endemic aquatic animal, Ephydrella novaezealandiae, is present, and there is an interesting pattern of vegetation zonation. Physical features: Sutton Salt Lake is a natural, inland or athalassic saline lake with an average depth of 30 cm and a salinity of 15%. The lake has no known inflow or outflow. The soils are saline and alkaline at the lake margin (sodium-saturated clays), and surrounded by yellow-grey earths and dry subdygrous Matarae. The parent material is loess. Shallow boggy depressions exist near the lake, and there is a narrow fringe of salt tolerant vegetation at the lake margin. Algal communities are present, and often submerged by lake water. The average annual rainfall is about 480 mm, while annual evaporation is about 710 mm. Ecological features: Sutton Salt Lake is one of only five examples of inland saline habitats of botanical value in Central Otago. This is the only area in New Zealand which is suitable for the existence of this habitat, since in general rainfall is high, evaporation is low, and endorheic drainage systems are absent.
