Initial Proposal Hearing and Submissions Submissions on the Initial Proposal closed at 5.00pm on Monday 8 October 2012. There were 817 submissions either in favour or opposed to the proposal. As the submissions are on a single topic, they have been treated slightly differently to other submission processes. Where submissions are extensive, a full copy is provided in the Submissions Volume and a summary is provided in the Submissions Summary reports. The Summary reports are included in this agenda. All other submissions have been typed verbatim into these reports. A full index of all submitters can be found in the Submissions Volume. The two boxes of submissions are available for anyone interested in viewing them. Enclosed with this agenda are: • Hearing Schedule - submitters to be heard on Monday 29 October 2012.

The page numbers refer to either the full submission in the Submissions Volume or the verbatim typed submission in this agenda or where applicable both. 39 submitters have requested to speak to their submissions. Timaru District Council Extraordinary Council Meeting Doc # 792738 1 29 October 2012 • Submission Summary Reports – document summarising individual submissions by those in support or those opposed. • Submissions Volume - this includes the following: • Full copy of extensive individual submissions. • Submission Index of Full Copy submissions provided (by submission number). • Submission Index of all Submitters (by submission number). Summary of Submission Feedback Submissions were received from across the district. A high proportion were received from rural areas. Submissions in Support Around 95% of submissions were in support of the proposal. The main reasons noted for support were: • Retains local voice • Guarantee of geographical rural representation • Better understanding of local area by local people • Retention of the ward structure guaranteed under 1989 amalgamations • Fairer system of representation • Reduces risk of party politics in Council • Well established communities of interest • System has worked for 23 years/works well • No need for change/not broken • Fair, balanced and simple system • Less change for the community • Access to local representative • Cost of campaigning for candidates across the district. Submissions Opposed Submissions opposed to the proposal generally fall into two categories: 1) Those who support retaining a ward system but would like some other combination of electoral options. For example, these include retaining the wards but also electing some at large, splitting Timaru ward into more wards, combining the rural wards or retaining the existing structure. 2) Those who support an at large system The main reasons noted for supporting other options were: • Retaining the same number of Councillors as currently exists • Desire to vote for all Councillors being elected • Councillors accountable to the whole district • Wards return unopposed candidates, which is undemocratic • At large enables higher calibre and wider variety of candidates • At large most democratic option • At large would support workings of Council • Communication opportunities means ward system no longer necessary • Need to continue to break down the rural/urban divide • Lack of or misleading information about other options • Concern about an even number of Councillors and the Mayor having a casting vote Timaru District Council Extraordinary Council Meeting Doc # 792738 2 29 October 2012 Options Following the hearing and consideration of submissions, the Council needs to finalise the 2012 representation proposal. Once this is confirmed, the Proposal is again publicly advertised as open for Appeals or Objections.

  • Title: Timaru's District Wide Sewer Strategy Author
    Title: Timaru’s District Wide Sewer Strategy Author: Ashley Harper, Timaru District Council Abstract: Timaru’s District Wide Sewer Strategy Key Words: Wastewater Strategy, Working Party, Community, Oxidation Ponds, Wetlands, Trunk Sewers, Tunnels Introduction The Timaru District has four main urban areas, namely Timaru, and the inland towns of Geraldine, Pleasant Point and Temuka, with each of these areas having a traditional piped sewer network. The total population served within these urban areas is 40,000. #:872456 Since 1987 Timaru’s wastewater had been treated via a 0.5 milliscreening plant and associated ocean outfall, while each of the three inland towns utilised oxidation ponds and river discharge as the wastewater treatment and disposal process. In 1996 the Timaru District Council initiated a review of the respective wastewater treatment and disposal strategies, primarily because of emerging environmental and regulatory issues. Council supported a community based approach to identifying a preferred strategy, noting that the strategy needed to be robust and viable and to recognise the unique nature of the Timaru District’s effluent. Compliance with proposed environmental standards was a non negotiable requirement. Wastewater Working Party The community based approach involved the appointment of an experienced facilitator (Gay Pavelka) and the formation of a Wastewater Working Party in 1997. Membership of the working party was made up of representatives of the following organisations: Timaru District Council Community Boards

  • South Island IQP Panel February 2020 Newsletter
    South Island IQP Panel February 2020 Newsletter Chair Persons Blog Tony Smith A sad announcement to make in that Tony Smith has passed away on Sunday 23 February 2020. Tony was a Fire Safety Officer with the Timaru Fire Service in 1993 when Compliance Schedules and BWOFs had to be commenced and he and a colleague walked the streets of Timaru to identify the specified systems so was involved with CS and BWOF from the beginning. Tony joined the Timaru DC in 2000 and became the SI IQP Panel Secretary for many years until his retirement. After “retiring” from Timaru DC he worked with Mackenzie DC doing Compliance Schedules and BWOF work and writing Fire Reports for buildings throughout the Canterbury Area. I met Tony 14 years ago when I first attended the SIIQP meeting and developed a relationship with him. Tony was very conscientious and knowledgeable and will be missed within the industry. The latest applications considered by the panel identified that a small number of applicants were not reading the application thoroughly enough and providing the required information that would enable an application to be approved. Additionally where there is a request for further information there will be only one opportunity for this to be provided and if not up to the required standard the application will be declined. The applicant will then need to submit a completely new application and pay the appropriate fee before being considered again. It appears to be a misconception that approval with a North Island IQP register will automatically gain approval in the South Island.
